I've posted this at other forums and have taken all of my posts, that which are relevant to the topic and come from me, and merged them into one post here. I was afraid to post this here because I usually get bashed or whatever but I don't care now. :D I love this song!
Download: TinDeck is being incongruent right now, so you'll have to click here (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=5619658E6D84984C) for the Deaf Mix of the song.
CHALLENGE: I made this song in FL but had my volume turned down all the way while producing it. I could not hear any of the instruments I chose, so what you hear is what I chose "blindly". The melodies are what I have been playing on the piano at my school for many months now but only the melodies were the only things I knew about this song; as far as the bass and the rhythms I used they are completely original for this song. Basically, I was "Beethoven" while making this song and only heard melodies in my head, that's it. What a challenge!
This song is one huge project combined into one. 0:00-1:51 & 3:12-End is what I call "Theme of [some made-up R.P.G.]" and 1:51-3:11 is what I call "The Son Is In My Eyes". The first and third portions were basically melodies I made for a potential R.P.G. theme (I thought it sounded like one and whenever I played it at my school's Student Center people think I'm playing something from a video game, so I guess I succeeded) and the second portion is a praise song I made for my church (it will start to be sung in June; lyrics below). I must say, however, that this song does not show how either song is intended for listening, for this is a weird mix and I made myself "deaf" while making this.
Currently, the lyrics have not been added to the song. I don't know how my voice will sound with the song and I don't care how bad my voice is when I do post it. lol.
~Lyrics for the "The Son Is In My Eyes" portion - 1:51-3:11 - ~
King of all kings
Almighty God
Your name is worthy of praise
You're the Savior who reigns
Through bright and sunny days
Now I want to praise your name
When I wake up in the morning
And the Son is in my eyes
And it's really no surprise
His sacrifice
Is the greatest that's ever
Been given unto me
And now I am free
His name is Jesus
King of all kings
Almighty God
Your name is worthy of praise
You're the Savior who reigns
Through bright and sunny days
Now I want to praise your name

This song, no matter how weird this version sounds, is straight from my heart and is one of my favorite songs of all time due to God's role in it. Seriously, thanks to Him I am able to express how He makes me feel, and I'm so thankful for what I have. I'm thankful He gave me a friend like Jewbei to keep inspiring me to mix music. I'm thankful He brought life into Yasunori Mitsuda and inspired me to write original music to begin with, not to mention make the rhythms in this song as wacky as possible. I'm thankful He introduced me to Imperative Reaction for inspiring my sound, no matter how anti-industrial and pro-trance it may be. I'm thankful God made Beethoven deaf so I could be inspired to do this challenge ...just joking. :D
Keep in mind that all the instruments I chose while "deaf" are still intact in this version and I may change them in future versions. Basically, this song is my "Deaf Mix" and future versions will be serious. (I referred to the waveforms in the Oscilloscope for guidance in choosing my instruments but could not hear everything like I have emphasized throughout this post)
Enjoy, but please no outright bashing on how bad it may sound. This song was nowhere near easy to make. At. All. O_o
UPDATE!!! Nario sings at last!
For all I know, these are the final versions! I added EQ, remastered the instruments and added a bunch of effects.
