FireEmblem - AKnightsOath (PRC127)
Outline
Anyways, the song I've chosen, A Knight's Oath, is played when the general Wallace joins your team in Lyn's Campaign. It's a fairly short song, but I personally think it's catchy and cool and could spawn some very good remixes. By the way, this song was also in Fire Emblem 1 for NES actually, although it was a much simpler version. Enjoy! =D"

Hopefully I've done something about the muddiness this time around (not having a dozen instruments going at once, perhaps?) I over-emphasized the syntheticness of the brass bit rather than try to make crummy samples sound good. Still can't record live guitar, but there's been no complaints about the fake one yet... Drums are pretty bland - making them do more just stuffed up the soundscape. And I forgot to fiddle with the piano velocities, so... just pretend touch response is broken. XD
I added a ton of new stuff in; good luck trying to find the original song. There's not a whole lot you can do with what's basically a glorified chord progression, so that was the role it was relegated to. I did want to do something akin to the ending of Pink Floyd's "Sheep", or the riff in "Run Like Hell", but I was four minutes into the composition of this one before I realised it, and trying to stick it in just sounded... bad.
So here's to Sir Wallace of Fire Emblem; the one game series to make the sudden disruption of world peace not make me twitch and roll my eyes, even if I still don't care for the premise of nations going at it willy-nilly.

I was going to rap over this, but then I realized I'm white and I can't. Also, this was as much effort I wanted to put into this thing while being on vacation.

Kinda hard to do much with a four-bar melody, but I decided to make something very BGM-ish, taking the fanfare feel and turning it into something sad.
Wanted to introduce a fast part at :48 to make this a 2:00+ song, but I couldn't figure out a way to get out of the slow pace so I just left it as it is. Maybe something to look back into in the future =)

Here's something. It's not my best work, I'm not so happy with how my song is, but I'm not able to work on it anymore. Good luck to all.

here is my joke mix that i spent 8 minutes on.
i contemplated having a reverse sample of me saying "fuck this song" looping with the drums, but i decided that this song doesn't deserve that, its my laziness which is unable to come up with anything neat. im sure other people made some neat stuff
[Rexy's note: You could have at least told me it was a "joke mix"; next time, add the [BONUS] tags if you plan to do that.]
