OMG_BBQ Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hello all, I'm trying to find and compile as many OC ReMixes as I can with cello in them. Stuff like "The Italian Plumber" by Mehawich for example... can anyone think of anything off the top of their heads? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Moseph Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Mario Likes Thorazine is a string quartet. To the Land of the Great Mammoths begins with a cello solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djpretzel Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 If fake cello's okay: Final Fantasy VII 'Short Skirts' Tekken 2 'Incantation' The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 'Pachelbel's Ganon' ... and my next mix, to a very significant extent.

Bahamut Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 This thread brought Chrono Cross to mind, but upon looking, there doesn't seem to be Chrono Cross mixes that utilize a cello. I'm shocked! The cello was one of the most defining instruments to its soundtrack in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 After doing a spontaneous piano & cello jazz improv on Summertime with my cousin-in-law, I have a few ideas for jazz cello and piano duet remixes, although it could be a while before they actually get recorded since she lives a few hours away. Not sure she'd want to do a game mix either; she's not a gamer and is a good 10+ years older than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01657/ (actually, it's a viola, but it's still awesome) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olarin Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I've got a FF6 jazz waltz remix waiting to be posted which has plenty of cello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nohbody Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hey just curious, but why do you want these ReMixes? Random craving fo cellos? Its happened to me with organs, not human organs, musical organs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hey just curious, but why do you want these ReMixes? Random craving fo cellos? Its happened to me with organs, not human organs, musical organs. Nice clarification. I guess my remix of the King's Quest VI music that the skeletons play in the underworld where I was planning on making a marimba from human bones is out then? And yes, I know that bones aren't organs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 My brother is always trying to figure out video game songs on his cello, so this thread is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollgagh Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hey just curious, but why do you want these ReMixes? Random craving fo cellos? Its happened to me with organs, not human organs, musical organs. Because Violincellos are hella sexy stringed instruments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Also, just in case anyone didn't know already, violas are almost exactly the same as cellos except that they are an octave higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olarin Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Sorry to be pedantic (well, ok, so I'm not really sorry, actually I thrive on being pedantic), but it's a touch misleading to say that viola and cellos are almost exactly the same. They are both members of the violin family, but the differences are numerous: - The viola is held like a violin, and is only slightly larger than a violin. The cello is over twice as big and is held upright between the knees, resting on an endpin. - significant difference in tone - Although lower pitched, the cello has a brighter and more resonant quality, whereas the viola is softer and less piercing than the other string instruments. Anyone reasonably familiar with string instruments could tell the two apart by ear most of the time without much difficulty. (The difference in timbre between viola and cello is actually quite comparable to that between alto and tenor vocalists.) - vast difference in playing technique - If you'd ever heard me trying to play a viola, you wouldn't question this one, trust me... Strictly speaking, it would be more accurate to say that a viola is almost the same as a violin pitched a fifth lower. (Of course I've known viola players who would complain about this statement, saying the viola is a completely different beast and many violinists who double on viola don't play it properly.)

BTW: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site:++site:www.ocremix.org+ocremix.org/remix+cello That will give you a bunch of them. Yay Google.

The Orichalcon Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Tears of Contention (Chrono Trigger) by Bladiator and myself includes some (fake) electric cello from the middle on. I enjoyed writing it out, so you might like it. http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01446/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMG_BBQ Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hey just curious, but why do you want these ReMixes? Random craving fo cellos? Its happened to me with organs, not human organs, musical organs. Yeah, I've just been kind of into cellos lately, and I love OC ReMixes but there's so many these days I couldn't remember all the ones I'd heard with cello, so... yeah. And I totally hear you with the organs. God, I love organs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumUltimA Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 AeroZ made a remix recently that uses cello fairly prominantly. Unfortunately, it wasn't accepted to OCR due to the limited source usage, but I think you'll like it a lot. It's called Amazon's Afterwork, you can find it on his myspace: http://www.myspace.com/freijman For those of you who like viola, mother and I may be doing another collab sometime soon where viola will be pretty prominent. I'll keep you posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monobrow Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Aeroz played cello for me in a Tales project song that should be cool. You'll get to hear it in like 2012. :J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
