theshaggyfreak Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I had a good listen today and it's amazing! Jill should be right proud of herself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Sounds amazing! Really impressive ambient/ethnic material, and great for relaxation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) Cheers, glad you're enjoying the music The inspiration for "Daughter of the Rain" wasn't specifically Chrono Trigger but we both LOVE that soundtrack, so it could very well have worked its way through our subconscious. On the other hand, "Siren" was inspired by another Square Enix game... props to whoever figures it out! I'm going to go ahead and throw in Xenogears, because it sort of reminds me of it. You know, another one that's getting into my head right now is "Generations". Starting to really like this track. And for some weird reason, it's giving off an Ocarina of Time vibe to me. If you listen to the Forest Temple music from OoT, the track also shares some similarities with the way the basic melody of Generations is structured. Loving how I'm noticing this stuff and it's making me like the tracks even more. Is there any basis to the nods I'm hearing or am I just crazy? Either way, guitars and vocals are really cool for this track, too. Edited April 1, 2014 by SwordBreaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshaggyfreak Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Certain songs remind me of some of the material from Ghost in the Shell: SAC. I dig it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Kindred is an arrangement from Super Metroid, and the Forest Temple cues were pretty clear in Generations, so it very well could be. This album's gorgeous! Beautiful singing, Jillian. It's fun to hear you improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so, so, so happy & relieved to finally have this CD out. It was a true labor of love. DarkeSword: Yes, it will be on OverClocked Records!

DarkeSword Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Yes, it will be on OverClocked Records! Cool. I backed this for Nabeel back when he wasn't able to back stuff on his own, but I'd like to buy my own copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FenixDown Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Downloaded my digital copy last night and gave it a listen. Excellent album, very well-written lyrics with an immersive soundscape. I've only listened to it the one time so far so I haven't really settled on any favorites, though the Zelda track did linger a bit in my mind after I was finished listening. It was definitely worth the wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Cool. I backed this for Nabeel back when he wasn't able to back stuff on his own, but I'd like to buy my own copy.

It was a true labor of love. Sweet! That's an excellent source to pick. Very underrated. If Ocarina of Time 3D wasn't fresh off my mind, I wouldn't have recognized it. Excellent job to everyone involved in that one, including DrumUltima with the percussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSkull Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I've put the download & CD of Atlantis Awakening into MusicBrainz. Are the credits on tracks 4 & 6 correct on the Bandcamp page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Almost - tracks 6 and 8 have different composers. Generations: Koji Kondo (music) Kindred: Kenji Yamamoto (music) Thanks for doing that though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eino Keskitalo Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Maybe referring to that that You and I has "Jillian Aversa ft. Malukah" as the artist but Generations has Malukah credit under vocals. I'm confused! --Eino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Ohh ok, yeah, that is a mistake. Malukah was not on Generations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRiderX Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) I just took a listen and this is really good work! Great job to you both! Also I found it interesting how you re-used Bouzouki Groove for track #3 Daughter of the Rain. I thought it was a pretty "remix" if that's what you'd consider it xD Edited April 2, 2014 by SkyRiderX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the timbres sounds very much like material from Seiken Densetsu 3, which is what gets my vote for the inspiration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-wix Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Pretty amazing album - After listening through it several times, I'd have to say Will o' The Wisp is my favorite <3~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I noticed that the other day and have taken care of it. Ohh ok, yeah, that is a mistake. Malukah was not on Generations Ok, I'll move Malukah's vocal credit to track 4 "You and I" then.

Liontamer Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Ohh ok, yeah, that is a mistake. Malukah was not on Generations Also, Minako Hamano was the composer of the source for "Kindred", not Kenji Yamamato. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSkull Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Also, Minako Hamano was the composer of the source for "Kindred", not Kenji Yamamato. "Maridia - Rocky Underground Water Area" already has the correct composer set, so it's not really a problem. How do you want the credits for Andrew Aversa and Jillian Aversa changed on "Kindred" & "Generations"? Arranger? Additional Composer? Or something else?
