Schwaltzvald Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 So yeah on a whim I decided to spend a good hour early in the morning observing through my artbook collection; eventually I came upon my imported copy of the Okami Official Art Book. I forgot how awesome it is though I soon noticed there was a couple of pages that had music sheets along with an 8-bit variation of Okami and its characters. I refused to destroy it to scan it. I decided to instead meet up with a friend of mine that collects art books as well but digitally instead. He gave me a copy and here is the couple of pages that I was referring to... & has this been discussed before and if so what came out of it..? If not then do the sheets mean anything to some remixers/artists here..? Quote
anosou Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 I recently tried to download an torrent with 8-bit okami material, these pages where some of them. The torrent was sadly not well seeded and I forgot all about it. While your images are VERY small I bet this will be great news to some crazy Okami-fan. Now the question remains, what song is it?

Schwaltzvald Posted November 3, 2007 Author Posted November 3, 2007 the images are only small when u see them here, if you download them and use your viewer on windows you can enlarge it to see its true size. My friend is picky about quality when it comes to digital copies... Quote
DarkeSword Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 As far as meaning something to artists, I suppose someone could use it as a guide when trying to figure out the song if they wanted to mix it. I have a scan of the artbook. Those sheets are of the song "The Sun Rises;" the 8-bit version, specifically. For those of you not in the know, back when Clover was still around, the Japanese Okami website had a mini-game that presented Okami in the style of an old 8-bit RPG. The 'prize' when you beat the game was a download of an entire soundtrack of Okami music done in the style of an NES game. It's quite a fun listen, especially if you like Okami. I've got it, and I don't think it'd be a problem posting it considering it was a website download, except for hosting concerns. Dunno how high the demand would be. I might post it later on. Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted November 3, 2007 Author Posted November 3, 2007 It'd be great if you can eventually. What can I say except I'm a fan Quote

DarkeSword Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Don't share this URL with your friends, or post this link on other message boards. If you want to share the soundtrack with other people, send it to them yourself using your own bandwidth and your own webspace. hxxp://shariqansari.com/dontshare/okami-retro-version.zipchange hxxp to http Quote
anosou Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 thanks a lot, will download when I get home Quote
Cruise Control Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 It's not bad. Some of it is fairly difficult to recognize when you consider how few instruments you can portray at once using 8-Bit soundchips. Quote

MechaFone Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Absolutely awesome. I will cherish this little ditty for as long as I live. Quote
