Some new music

[DZComposer]

It's been a while since we released anything publicly, so here is something new!

http://shadowsoflylat.net/media.php?m=3

The menu music for the prologue release is complete, and there is an MP3 download on the site.

You old-school fans will like this one.

You'll notice:
Control Select from SFSNES
Map screen from SFSNES
SF64 theme and Space Armada polymelodic with part of the SNES credits music

Basically this piece represents the peace that exists before the story kicks-off. Later releases will use different, darker, menu music.

It starts out with a piano, harp, cello, and bass quartet. Solo Horn and trumpet join to repeat the melody lightly, and the rest of the brass come in more majestically before a diminuendo to solo violin and cello with piano. Brass chords in the background. Horn and glockenspiel state the SF theme, followed by solo violin and glock to the loop point.

I don't often write for solo instruments, but I think these are some of my favorite ones I have done. SIPS makes the legato instruments so much more expressive.

Instruments:
Orchestra: EWQLSO Gold Pro XP
Piano: Garritan Authorized Steinway
Percussion: Virtual Drumline 2.5 and EWQLSO

Sequencer:
Cubase SL3

VSTs:
Kontakt 2 (Solos enhanced with the SIPS legato Kontakt script.)
Garritan ARIA

Reverb:
Lexicon MX200 rackmount effects processor.

I love you man. Marry me.
Sounds incredibly professional now.

[SabreWolferos]

Everything I can say is awsome:nod::nod::nod:

Great work dude

[Coyote Squadron]

Amazing work! The violin solo is spectacular!

[Flammenwerfer fox]

It's great. It'll go great with the game.

I love you man.Marry me.²

Great stuff man
-the corneria music was spot on, especially after watching the ice trailer.
-the crescendo music makes chills run down my spine every time i listen to it.
-the prologue menu music is an amazing mix as well, but the percussion line for the last half of the song was a little too cliche for my taste.

all in all, you did a pretty good job:nod:

The only real "percussion line" other than Glockenspiel is the Timpani and snare drum during the SNES Map part of the song playing the quarter/triplet pattern of the brass. I just lifted that straight from the original.

Unless you're talking about "Yet another Corneria Arrangement," which shouldn't be on the site anymore because, firstly It's old, and secondly it is not a piece I did for Shadows. I think Brock put it there as a placeholder until I had something released. The "Crescendo" piece is by Flamewave, not me.

As a fellow musician and a fan of ALL EWQL products, it's pleasing to see someone use the programme to its fullest potential. I only recently came across this site yesterday, and my jaw dropped at the sheer ball-busting work you all (from programmers to coffee-boys) have put into this. If you aren't snatched up by Nintendo after the completion of this and ordered to make it Wii compatible, I'll eat my hat. Not my nice top-hat, mind, but my flatcap.

On a related note, commendations are hereby awarded for your beautiful violin work (which is probably the hardest thing to make 'realistic' in EWQLSO). I'm a little confused why you didn't use Boesendorfer 290 for the piano VST, but oh-well. It works perfectly anyway.

I can't wait until there is an official release of this - this has to be the finest fan-game ever made, on par with or even eclipsing professional quality.

Cheers, Congratulations, and Much Jealousy from

[Flaming Cobra]

DZ, you have made quite a piece of work. I think every one of us are completely blown away by the sheer beauty of the music. If you guys keep this up, it'll probably be the best Star Fox game ever.

[Fox_McCloud3232]

It's BEAUTIFUL ^^

[Peakog]

This game has to make it. I look forward to the day it finishes, and the best of luck to all of you.

and sorry about talking down on one of the songs.:o

It's always nice to see some people knowing the subject giving their opinion. It changes from the "kk it's good continue lol" that we (including myself) pull out to cheer the staff up. :)

[Prototype]

Any chance you could bundle all the music (including the old/removed music) into a nice little zip file for download?

[Scourge of Ages]

Wow.... How did I miss listening to these until now? That is some truly awesome stuff.

[Brockenstein]

Well the songs that where removed weren't songs made for the SoL Project. In fact there is still one song on the site that isn't apart of SoL and will probably be removed soon.

So currently only two songs uploaded for public download related to SoL. One day though we may release the music as a zip that is a soundtrack to the game. Maybe.

[Fox's_Feather]

Otherwise play the game to listen. :)

[Peakog]

im with him
i still play ace combat 6 just to hear some of the level themes(especially the main theme)

???hang on a sec... you know, ive been reading through these posts for quite a while and i still don't get ''fox's feather's'' sig.

Avoid posts like that.
If you plan to Post something. Make sure there is a slight point for it, at least.

Also Double posting is an act of treason. Wait... it isn't. Or is it?:wtf:
Still, we don't like that. IF you have something important to say you forgot in the previous post and someone hasn't posted after you yet, Use the Edit button.


And make sure to delete that second post.

[Prototype]

A ban would be more fitting. =D

Also, is there any place I could find the old music, I just liked listening to them regardless of their purpose.

[Brockenstein]

You could always look up the creators and see if they have a place you can download or stream?

[Peakog]

I tried to look up flamewave and dzcomposer but all i got were a bunch of links to shopping sites.

**** you google.:hoppingma

"I tried to look up flamewave and dzcomposer but all i got were a bunch of links to shopping sites.

try corneria sound. it's DZ's website

[DZComposer]

The older SoL stuff I did is offline, as it most likely won't be used, as my skills have improved since I made them and I have labeled many of them as "Crap."

I may at some point throw together a "Shadows Rejects" pack, but that depends on several things.

[Fox's_Feather]

But did you keep everything you have done so far?

[danyetman]

Well done, mods. Let's have a round for the anti-asshat squad!

And back on topic, would it be prying to ask just how many tracks Jesus (sorry, I mean DZComposer, but I'm sure it boils down to the same thing) has completed? Or better yet, how many music tracks he expects there to be in total for the entirety of the game?

Or BEST yet, if the OST will be available for download post-release?

[Flamewave]

Or BEST yet, if the OST will be available for download post-release?

This is the plan.

[Saisuke]

I found it so awesome, but then at 1:35...I found it amazing. You are an artist.

[Linebeck]

Mind = blown

:D

[Prototype]

I would love you forever. Personally, I love observing an artist's progression.

[Scourge of Ages]

Here's some of DZ's older, possibly embarassing work:

I don't see why that would be embarassing, it's very good work.

No hay fecha de estreno todavía.
Y esto es un foro de Inglés, entonces usted debería considerar el uso del idioma Inglés.

A quick song I made, took me a day:

[Spring]

:hoppingma i introduce a song "poker face",who can guess whose song this is.

[Brockenstein]

Lady Gaga

[MarekMcCloud]

Lady Gaga

That "Disco Stick" song and "Telephone" song where her best two songs; minus the beyonce part :squeeze:

[varsaigen]

Once again, another beuatifully done peice. Keep up the awesome work.

I have to say, out of personal opinion, that of all the great songs, that the Cresendo by Flamewave, fills me with that sense of epicness. It is so powerful and motivating. :P I rarely find songs that fill me with that sense of epicness, but Cresendo is definetely one of them. Story of Zoness would be one of the others. :D

[zorro7]

the songs are great
appear Made for an entire study

[MarekMcCloud]

BUT IT'S TOO SHORT! Wish it were longer.

[Falco314]

Ditto.
Extended version or something, Please. Pretty please.
