Mario Galaxy - Gateway (PRC128)

Outline

"Never played Mario Galaxy myself, but the hype about its soundtrack was not undeserved. (This track)... always stood out to me as a prime tune for a remix. It's vaguely mystical and wandering, playful, but still fuzzy around the edges. Like a bunny. Instrumentally sparse, but melodically full, sort of thing; it's got a pretty melody, creepy harmony, interesting chords... and no bassline to speak of, so people can have some fun with that."

Ahahahaha, first entry. Labor day ftw.

This remix kind of alternates between conservative and original (one section kind of reminds me of Paper Mario 2). I've kept it in a similar style, but a little more beaty and stuff.

Enjoy!

I guess this turned into a somewhat lounge-ish take. Messed with Cubase for first time in many years, using the reViSiT tracker frontend plugin. Ended up recording the organ bits in good old Audacity. Hope you like it!

Argh, this song was seriously hard to remix in the trance style; I gave up on the mix I was making until Friday and started this one, and even after making most of it I had to tweak it for ages to stop the notes from conflicting awfully. Eventually, after the shedding of much blood and tears, I finally finished this remix =D However, my mind started to wander about 2/3rds of the way through and the melody changed to "Pimp Code - R U Ready", lol
Anyways, I hope you enjoy it!! =D
