Yeah, definitely. ))

And I found another really interesting Lufia 2 remix by Mystwalker, which I also added to the remix list in my main post (right after the three battle theme remixes).

Check out the Triumph remix:
 

Really impressive what a driving and energetic remix he has composed out of the little fanfare theme from Lufia 2.
Kinda love the electric guitar passages after minute 1:33.

...

There are also two more modern Lufia 2 remixes by him, but the themes don't really appeal to me that much – just in case you still want to hear them:
- Lufia 2 - Cave Remix >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCfsnPX6YQ8
- Lufia 2 - Labyrinth Remix >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfU99NdOD2o

Hell, yeah. 🤘

I know. Got a really good taste when it comes to radically awesome, rare and hard-to-find video game music remixes. *heroic victory fanfare playin'*


But I'm just the joyful messenger here - a messenger with the happy-go-lucky golden retriever vibes full of serious excitement, eagerly looking forward to upgrading my large MP3 player and soundtrack collection with a few more killer tracks.

The legendary genius and composer behind this Lufia 2 remix masterpieces ist just one comment above yours - yep, the dude with the kinda naughty-looking hentai girl profile picture.

...

I will also write back to you in a few days, Mystwalker.
Just have to beat a few more rounds against Chaos in my own world like a Warrior of Light (or rather like some sort of a forced hobby paperboy in the secretary office edition). ))

You're radically welcome, @MystWalker! ))

Your Lufia 2 remixes are absolutely dope - didn't took me long to realize that you are a really talented and ambitious composer.

You also seem to be quite flexible in your style and music genre rather than limiting yourself too much in such matters (which is great in terms of future musical development potential).
I hope that you will make more Lufia 2 remixes in the near (or distant) future, especially some remixes for the original soundtracks I mentioned on YouTube - just to revisit the original themes I already recommended to ya:

- "Flute of Sleepwalk" (mystical theme) >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6JgflZYy6k
- "The Abysmal Depths of the Ocean" (mystical theme) >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJU83RQZfOM
- "The Lost World" (mystical theme) >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk3omXPfuVM
- "Final Battle" (heroic/energetic theme) >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Fzm2O4Zt-k
- "To the Future" (emotional/sad and happy theme) >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5zoFZq3Frw


But I'm not here to shit ya you with work right away. ^^

I rather wanted to point out a few things to you in the OC Remix forum, which you may have already taken a quick look at - things like these:

1) Perhaps it's best to start by creating your profile so that others can see what you're generally interested in, which DAW you use for composing, what additional software instruments and plugins you use, or what instruments and musical skills you have mastered or are currently learning.

...

2) There is also a thread for newcomers where you can introduce yourself:
https://ocremix.org/community/topic/7744-the-newbie-introduction-thread-come-on-in-and-say-hello/

For example, I would be interested to know how long you have been making music and writing remixes, or what you want to achieve musically in the future - your musical dreams, so to speak (if you have something specific in mind).

...

3) Before you submit your first remix, make sure to read the submission rules:
https://ocremix.org/info/Content_Policy

And then you can basically submit your first remix to the forum right away using this link:
https://ocremix.org/community/submissions/

...

4) You can also just share your own video game remixes (without submitting it to the judges - if you want to get some feedback before) in the thread "Post Your Video Game Remixes!":
https://ocremix.org/community/forum/12-post-your-game-remixes/

You can share your own original compositions in the thread "Post Your Original Music!":
https://ocremix.org/community/forum/15-post-your-original-music/

...

5) You can also ask questions or start threads and discussions in the specific sections of the forum.

...

Guess that's pretty much everything you need to know to get started, and I'll leave the rest of the journey of discovery in the OC Remix Forum to your own curiosity. ))

I hope you'll submit one of your fiery Lufia remixes sometime soon.
The listeners at OC Remix and all fans of video game music are guaranteed to go wild for it, and I would definitely submit the awesome Battle #1 remix as a starting point and first musical milestone at OC Remix.

As far as my taste is concerned, over the years I've only found one really cool Lufia 2 remix on OC Remix.
It was composed by Zircon, one of the early leading members of OC Remix:

or (if you want to use the direct OC Remix YouTube link):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYZ5suUrN38

I'm not sure how active he still is on the forum these days.
But I think he's pretty busy as a developer of VST instruments (Zircon is the CEO of Impact Soundworks and has developed famous VSTis such as Shreddage, which you apparently also use), creating video games and composing his own soundtracks from time to time.

I'm just an advanced beginner on my own musical journey, but I hope I've been able to give you at least a little introduction to OC Remix.

Have fun, dude. ))

That's too kind! Means a lot to hear that! For some reason I have always found it difficult to stick to a genre! Probably because being a big video game music lover, must have wired me that way. Video games are the motherlode of mixed music genres after all! 

All the tracks you recommended ("Flute of Sleepwalk," "The Abysmal Depths," etc.) sound amazing – I’ll tackle as many as time allows for sure.

I also would like to thank you for taking the time to not only share my stuff around, but also to write that great tour guide of the site! It is great to have a focused summary of the site, and to learn how stuff works around here. Really appreciate you taking the time!

I will definitely share my stuff. I'm thinking it would be great to have feedback from people who love video game music.

Dude, for real? I had no idea he was the CEO of Impact Soundworks. And not only I do use Shreddage, but this remix was always one of my favorites and was big inspiration for my own. That's awesome.

you've done awesomely at that for sure, and I feel wholly welcome already. c:

Keep at it, even when it seems difficult; as music can be!

Cheers, man! 🍻

@MystWalker

I just read your newbie introduction a few days ago.

Man, this sounded quite sad.

Did you grow up in a highly abusive environment or surrounded by nuclear physicists and rocket scientists or something?
Because I find it hard to believe that a child would describe itself as a “dumb kid” without a correspondingly hostile human environment.

If there is such a thing as dumb kids, then they are usually the ones who, as adults, drink away their most basic brain functions, consume harmful drugs, march into the resource wars of high society with the utmost euphoria, madness, and ignorance, or in other small-minded ways throw away the gift of life far too hastily.

Sure, intelligent people can also develop suicidal, life-threatening tendencies when their life force is at a critically low level (or let's say, when bioelectric current no longer flows properly through their bodies).
But in most cases, it is rather highly intelligent, creative, and passionate people who start doing interesting things like composing soundtracks and then develop such awesome musical abilities that they can create fiery Lufia 2 remixes like these.

I had read about this imposter syndrome some time ago.
But I always found it hard to imagine that such a thing even existed (since people tend to be happy about their own successes and progress and show off a little ^^), which is why I dismissed it as something belonging to the realm of unicorns, elves, and fairy tales.

But you, with your exaggerated modesty in stark contrast to your insane compositional skills, really seem to be such a case.
So I'm really glad I literally coerced you into finally joining OC Remix. :D

...

Haha, man, that really made me laugh a little, especially when I think about how I pictorally stumbled into OC Remix with full force back then.

I guess you could compare it to a radically overexited Golden Retriever turning a professional competition into a feeding frenzy:
 

...

No kidding, man.

I joined OC Remix around 2013, had just bought my first DAW, and was full of anticipation and euphoria back then.
Even without any significant knowledge of music theory, composition, or mixing, I wanted to make a big splash and create my first remix to share here on OC Remix.

The result was an accelerated, hyper-compressed remix loop of the original Battle #3 theme (the Sinistral battle theme) from Lufia 2, which also had massive (clearly audible) clipping in the master.

At the time, I was very proud of my first remix and celebrated it enthusiastically (in a certain way, I still find it interesting today) - but of course, this kind of mastering disaster without any compositional effort on my part was completely torn apart by the old-timers at OC Remix (which, however, did not stop me from continuing to radically admire my first sound achievement :DD).

I even kept my first shot in the dark 'n' dusty corners of my computer.
Here, in case you want to listen to this track I called "Sinistral Salvation" (but be careful that the studio monitor speakers don't experience their own salvation and start to smoke 'n' burn out 'cause of the massive compression and clipping):

 

 

Over the next few years, I slowly began to focus more and more on music theory, arrangements with my first own compositional ideas, as well as mixing and mastering.

And then, after getting to grips with my first professional DAW and some more usable audio equipment, I was able to create my first real remixes a few years later, which, in the case of my old Lufia remix, already sounded something like this (again, a remix of the Battle #3 theme from Lufia 2).
You have to turn it up about twice as loud to achieve a comparable loudness, because at this time I have already mastered all my soundtracks uniformly according to the EBU R 128 loudness standard with approx. - 23 dBFS as a target loudness value, in order to ensure a correspondingly high dynamic range and sound quality free from the degrading influence of limiters and compressors on the samples, peaks and transients:

The remix already contains some really good compositional ideas, although the mixing/mastering is still kinda messed up here, as my mixing and mastering skills only began to develop about three years later, after I finally got myself some proper professional studio monitors and was able to hear certain things, details and inconsistencies in the mix much better and, based on that, gradually developed my dynamic mixing concept called “Life Force,” which was only really applied for the first time in my last two remixes.

I will definitely give this Lufia remix a major update in the future with drastically improved mixing/mastering and certainly some interesting compositional changes.

...

But by the time I, as a truly lame composer, have finished this, you will probably have released five new and truly overwhelming Lufia 2 remixes, which I will listen to on repeat with greatest enthusiasm. ^_^
