Here is the mix from the MOVIN’s theme of ff8: Chase Into The Space. I work on this project in collaboration with Ilp0. For this music, I wanted something epic, powerful, and the metal symphonic style was particularly adapted. For the structure, this mix use the three parts of MOVIN’s theme: intro (with the famous arpeggios!), melodic lines ‘A’ and ‘B’. After an introduction and a presentation of the theme, I’ve added for the melody ‘A’ some variations (between 2’00 and 3’30): sad melody, metal part ultra speed (with a repetition of arpeggios, and a very small extract of the ff9 battle theme #2 by the bass line (maybe a bit difficult to recognize)), and an interlude very soft. After this, the melody ‘B’ put in place with a rhythm heavy; and ultra speed at the end. The last part makes a link between this melody and the final of World crisis from ff7, which well blend in, IMO. The mix finishes in culmination, with the last accords of the World Crisis, accompanied by a nice guitar impro. Ilp0 recorded for me all the guitar parts. He played also some nice improvisations which give more depth to this mix. Notably at between 2’00 and 3’00, or in the last part, he added a lot of emotion and power on this music. What else? Software that I used for this project was Final for the orchestra part FL Studio for bass and drum, and on other for mixing. I put all my heart on this mix! I hope you’ll enjoy!!!

OceansAndrew Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 It sounds sick except for the drum production. I emailed them to see if we can get a revision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palpable Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I wouldn't say the drums are the only problem here. The backing guitar is produced in a way that makes it very hard to hear and the lead tone is not that great either. Some of the orchestral elements like the choir and strings don't sound very realistic. Also, the sub bass frequencies are cranked, and there's a lot of muddiness down there. Mixing in general should be cleaned up, there are moments like 4:03 where the strings/pads are much louder than they should be, it drowns out everything else. Arrangement is very cool, but the production has some way to go for a song as elaborate as this. NO (resubmit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
