An absolute aeon since the last time I've posted here, but this one has been bothering me for months and I couldn't rest until I did it justice - as soon as Flowers started being ever-present as soon as it came out, it started bugging me that I knew it sounded exactly like an NES song. Then I started remembering lyrics that went with it, I was like, oh yeah, Trenthian did a vocal cover, that's right, it was pretty epic, too. Then, after scouring the internet for any other similar instrumental version, but obviously coming up empty because Trenthian's style is definitely his own (and, again, epic), I realized: a couple years ago I'd seen someone post a link to an interesting site claiming to be able to separate vocals and non-vocals completely, using AI. So I tried it, and dang if it didn't work. So thanks, Trenthian - I think this is the coolest mashup I've ever done. Flowers in my Armor (Wizards in my Mashup) Miley Cyrus - Flowers (vocals) v Trenthian & Brothersynthe - OC ReMix #1665: Wizards & Warriors 'Wizards in My Armor (Warrior in My Long Johns)' [Wizards & Warriors Title] (instrumental, and vocals sometimes) edit: I'm sad how few people will probably ever see this, cause I'm just doing it for my own amusement... but I made another version, that includes Gloria Steinem's I Will Survive in a significant capacity as well as the above. Flower in my Armor (Wizards in my Mashup) (I Will Survive version) I can't stress enough how well this works. I've never done a mashup with real counterpoint for the majority of the song, let alone where both vocal tracks also have their own independent harmonies, but these songs fit perfectly (I mean, I cut up the vocals and slotted them to fit, but the chord progressions.) On top of that, by complete accident, it's a breakup song about not needing the guy, vs a song that, through no fault of its own, is a guy singing about a woman as a literal object to be retrieved for a reward (again, nothing against it, it's a straight-up homage to an old platformer where "save the princess" was just what you did in those games, I'm just saying, the lyrics work together.) So I figured I had to share it with anyone else who might still be around, haha. I should really post these on youtube where people could actually find them...
