Well that was a stupid way to start the day

Random fun facts about pianos and Skyward Sword music:

1. If you play your piano with your eyes closed, anything you play will sound better. Especially in the morning.
2. If you play Skyward Sword's "Ballad of the Goddess" this way, you will accidentally segue into Fi's theme.
3. If you play the full version, you'll be back at the start of "Ballad of the Goddess" exactly one octave higher.
4. If you keep playing like this because of how neat it sounds, you will violently smash your right hand into the edge of your piano by the start of the fourth roll of "Ballad of the Goddess". So you might want to stop before that. Just saying.

...

5. If you tell the doctor you got that fracture by blindly playing Zelda music on your piano, he will laugh his ass off. Lie.

Pinky splint time!
I hate you Fi.

Don't worry, it's literally nothing (hairline crack, it'll be gone in two weeks tops), but this is so hilariously stupid I thought I'd share. XD


EDIT: Now with a live MP3 demonstration of how to loop the themes together. Have fun trying it, and don't break any fingers!

WORK IN PROGRESS - Memories of Tethe'Alla radical update

countercolette: (Symphonia post)


So yeah I kinda changed absolutely everything.
Aaand now the preview's roundabouts of 5 minutes.
But it's still incomplete, of course. I mean I can't just FINISH something, I'd stop being a sloth f'I did.



Tales of Symphonia ~ Memories of Tethe'alla WIP 2, now ACTUALLY featuring the OTHER SONGS!
The harmonics of the strings ensemble around the third minute are very obviously missing, just, I dunno, pretend they're there. >_> Tons of stuff also goes missing once the Walking on Tethe'Alla part hits, just left it in there for preview's sake and because it all still sounds nice even without it.

Advice on whether I should keep going like this or stick with the former one's style'd be appreciated. I think I like this one WAY more. MUST RESIST ADDING IN OZETTE AND PRESEA.
Now watch me decide I can make it sound better and do it all over again a THIRD time.

WORK IN PROGRESS - Because why not just post them

    HAY SELF HOW 'BOUT YOU STOP STARTING NEW STUFF.
    And, yanno, finish the rest instead.
    ...Ya right.



Might as well post what I'm on, right? Maybe it'll work as incentive to get stuff done. Small preview cuts of things for whoever cares, beware of VERY INCOMPLETE incompleteness with holes all over and very abrupt cuts.


Memories of Tethe'Alla, Tales of Symphonia medley.
Starring Far from our world, Secret from the blue sky, Serenade of elves and Walking on Tethe'Alla, though the cut's only got Far from our world in. Might work Ozette's music in there too.

The seventh Chosen WIP, Tales of Symphonia the Animation Colette mix o'doom.
If a music's affiliated with Colette and comes from the OAV, IT'S IN THERE. All of 'em. Ignore the obvious hole in the chords. Score manages to clock longer than the Dhaos medley, WTH DID I GET MYSELF INTO. Much like the Dhaos medley, score's complete, but I can't settle on what should be played by which instrument and keep rerecording. Probably 'til the next Doomsday.

Beyond the Wall WIP, Game of Thrones musicboxification of the opening credits.
Ya I know. Game of Thrones, music box, DOES NOT COMPUTE. Comes with winter wind to compensate.


You need to finish stuff, self. YOU NEED TO FINISH STUFF! >_<
