  1. Probably not very much, we want to keep this a remix album. I like the idea, but I wish for it to be like a trail scene, like it is in the game. The Deku King is accusing the monkey for kidnapping the princess and the Monkey is trying to desparately tell them that she is in danger. I love the idea of incorporating the Sonata of Awakening into the song. I'll leave it to you, can't wait to hear it and your audition piece.

    is there a relatively public place we'll be compiling the lyrics to ensure that there are no contradictions or overlaps? i'd be happy to manage that, i just need to know what you're thinking. a wikispace would most likely be used, as it's publicly available for viewing but editing is restricted

  2. Hey all,

    I can play the bass guitar, been playing for about five years, and I'd really like to help out with this project.

    I can also play the tuba pretty well, playing for about four years.

    I would really like to work on this project, and would wanna start composing stuff for the Snowhead areas if noone has a problem with that.

    Otherwise, lemme know what I can help with

    tuba? mind if i utilize that for the deku palace we're working on? that song would love a little brass, i should think.

    on its way, my friend. on its way

  4. so shall we begin to string together some semblance of a plot? i have begun writing some lyrics for the deku palace, and i wanted to make sure that my lyrics didn't conflict with anyone else's. i introduce the deku king and his palace, but i didn't have any lyrics by the butler, yet. i'll have to replay that part of the game to remember the actual series of events. but it looks like i'm gonna absorb the sonata of awakening when the monkey teaches it as well. how much sampling of in-game sound effects will be acceptable? i don't plan on using too much, i'm just wondering what would be acceptable.

    sorry about the barrage of questions... :tomatoface:

  5. I was going over the title suggestion: TEARS OF THE MOON and was thinking maybe a re-wording of it. Like: LUNAR TEARS. I don't know, I like the title, I just think that...I don't know something just seems off about the wording. If people disagree then I'll shut up. I'm fine with the title, I just was hoping that there would be more title ideas.

    hmmmmmm, weighing both of those titles, i'd still go with tears of the moon... i'd like to mention that i did give it a good consideration, though. I was going for a reference to the "moon's tear" item that starts the trade sequence off, and i fear that might get lost with lunar tears... i have a prospective album cover and signature image if you'd like to see the title in action. i can, however, only show you, as i have not yet obtained permission to use it. it may help you warm up to the title, though. if you wanna see them, pm me

  6. Well if no body has any other title idea's, then I guess we'll call this project TEARS OF THE MOON. Can you give me your skype name so that I can find you?

    my skype name should be malachampion, though i have no promises that that's accurate.

    I've begun work on a perspective album cover and signature image, but i need to wait for permission to use an image. i'll keep you posted on that.

  7. Since this project is still in it's infant stage, I would like to propose a kind of group discussion. I feel the identity of this project is still unknown and would like everyones input on this and many other topics of this project. For those that have skype, we can verbally discuss the project over there and for those that do not we have the forums here. If there is a time when people are free, let me know and we'll try to set a time for the discussion. Now I know that it will be impossible for everyone to be apart of the discussion at the same time (everyone is busy, I know). But even if it is for a short while, I'd like to hear everyones ideas.

    i do have a skype, and i'm free pretty much every day after 5:30, except mondays.

    it has also come to my attention that "the dark side of the moon" is a copyrighted pink floyd album, so that may cause some problems...

  8. I definitely like that idea for Link! For each of his different forms, perhaps there signature instruments could play the part of "speaking" for him.

    i also had the same thought about ikana being a sort of opera area. it has that wide-open feel to it, and i think the tracks would lend themselves nicely to that sort of vocals.

    a question. in the final act, when all hell's breaking loose over termina, does that mean that each style of music (rock, opera, orchestral, etc) will be competing? that could lend a great deal of chaos to the experience.

    also, my 13-year-old sister might be up to playing pamela, romani, or one of the younger roles, though i have yet to ask her. i'll letcha know

  9. i'll have links coming soon for vocals, and i and a friend have already started something with the deku palace theme, so i'd kinda like some dibs on that. as for link's voice, i vote silent protagonist, in keeping with zelda tradition, but i think if we have tatl constantly buzzing around his head talking to him, we could use musical phrases to convey his gestured responses. and as for a title, definitely something involving the moon. probably to the effect of of "tears of the moon." thoughts?

  10. just a word choice thing. opera might scare some vocalists away: it's rather difficult and has a propensity to be potentially boring. i would recommend the use of the word "operetta," as it's...less well known. some well known operettas are (all by tim rice and andrew lloyd webber) Joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat, Evita, and Jesus Christ superstar. the latter is considered a rock opera. simply food for thought :mrgreen:

  11. ah, how funny is timing. i am both an aspiring writer and vocalist, plus i dabble in piano and, more recently, violin. i also have a number of close friends who are vocalists, and can throw my voice to sound like different(ish) people (or races, as the case may be). needless to say, i'm all for this as a project. i have found it frustrating that ocr is lacking mm remixes AND vocal mixes. you have my vote :)!!

  12. there is, as far as i can see, only one fire emblem mix on the site, and it's from the japanese original for the nes. the first game to come out in the us was, unless i'm wrong, for the gba. it, and all the subsequent games in the series, had very unique and beautiful musical scores. the games deserve a little more love than it seems like they're getting. i would like to point out one song in particular from the gba game "fire emblem," called "together we ride." it is the same song as was used to represent fire emblem in ssb: melee. a link is below!

    thanks muchly,

    cth

  13. Majora's Mask is a phenomenal game. Thusly, it saddens me, and I'm sure many others, that there is such a limited ReMix library for it.

    As such, I would like to point out that the Clock Town theme has not been ReMixed on this site as of yet, and I'm very interested in seeing what some of the extremely capable musicians who frequent this site could do to it.

    There are actually three themes in question here, as the song changes as the days go by, becoming more frantic and worried.

    I have mildly limited abilities on the piano and less limited abilities on the drums, and I would be happy to lend a hand (or foot, as the case may be), given a little direction and advice
