Wiesty Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Hey All and Happy New Year! Here's my first completed mix of 2015. This is a track I arranged originally for the FF7 web series as bonus content. The idea was to challenge myself to arrange the Chocobo theme, which was a challenge seeing as how Nobuo has already arranged it dozens of times himself. I decided to do a multi movement piece and named it Variations de Chocobo as it is essentially a theme and variations. Arrangement/Mix by Dylan Wiest Saxophones by Joe Zieja Variations de Chocobo i. Theme ii. Rag iii. Jazz iv. Dance https://soundcloud.com/wiesty/variations-de-chocobo-1 Edited January 2, 2015 by Wiesty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_Lochlann Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 You made me not NOT want to listen to this song. So congratulations. You did the impossible. Very clever once you get into the rag time stuff. One thing that bothered me was the pauses, I would have liked it to transition directly to the next part, but it's not a big deal. i wonder if you could add just a touch of Tape/saturation/console Emulator on the mix to make it sound a little warmer and less digital. right now it sounds like a guy with a computer and a microphone, which is what it is, rather than a studio recording...it sounds amazing, don't get me wrong, but i think for jazz you don't want that digital, perfect sound.
