My first reorchestration!

Well I’ve finally reorchestrated a song in Apple’s GarageBand ‘08. It was tough but I think I’m getting the hand of how things work. I might try doing Toad Town from Paper Mario as my next song. Until then, enjoy the Star Wars Theme!

ZREO’s second part of Open Symphony

Well the long waited for second “movement” of Open Symphony from Zelda Reorchestrated was realised last night at 10 PM EST and it’s absolutely beautiful. I’ll admit it brought me to tears the first time I heard it and that’s something that hasn’t happened for three year. I forgot how good it felt. The second movement is called Memories of Kakariko and is available for download from the ZREO page in two bitrates, 160 or 320. In addition, Open Symphony means it’s open for others to make their own arrangements as the sheet music is also available for download.
If you’re a Zelda Fan, you want want to miss this. If you aren’t a Zelda fan, I still really highly recommend taking a listen and downloading it if you like the tracks. Movement III should be realized the end of March.

Are you a Zelda fan?

If so, you really should check out this get group called Zelda Re-orchestrated.
Their goal is to re-orchestrate every track of music from every Zelda game. They use very high quality synthesizing software and the music they make sounds incredible! Every Friday, a new song or two or more is launched and if no song is launched (on rare occasions) the wait is more than worth it.
And if perhaps, you aren’t a big fan of the music or music in general, you can always join the live chat.

So check it out, even if you aren’t a Zelda fan it’s a great community that is rapidly expanding and great to be a part of.
