I'm Kyle, amateur mixer. My work is based mostly on games, though I dip in and out of originality as a break every so often. Mixing is my primary way to waste time, but I write plenty of fan fiction as well, which is available at the website below. :-)

Bringin' Secret of Mana Back!

Posted by bitium-ribbon - March 4th, 2008


Woohoo!

These days there's no such thing as bad publicity, so I suppose it's a good thing I've decided to be decidedly public about my decision to cover the Secret of Mana boss theme, and it's getting some attention! Yay!

Having said that, since I love hearing both praise and criticism for my work, please head over and find Secret of Mana: Clear Danger and give me a vote/review - it'll only help me improve my work so that I can better serve you all.

Upcoming projects in the works:
- Final Fantasy: Veiled Wind. It's been a while since I did a Final Fantasy mix and this will be the next in what has become a long-ish line of them. It's a mix of the overworld theme from Final Fantasy 3 (that's Final Fantasy 3 for the Nintendo, not for the SNES) and I started it far too long ago to be able to excuse myself for not having finished it. So, I think that's my next project.

And then, finally:
- Dancing Mad: A Tribute. If I can ever get out of mixer's block and finish this thing, I hope that it will be epic. Dancing Mad is the final boss theme from Final Fantasy 6 (or 3, as it was released in the US, and yes, this one is the SNES version), and as far as I am concerned it is an almighty masterpiece of masterpieces from the good man Nobuo himself. So, I'm tributing it by making my own version. I do hope that it's enjoyable when it's finally done.

That shall be all for today, but I shall keep on truckin'. Good day to you all!

Bringin' Secret of Mana Back!

I loved Secret of Mana for the SNES!

It had some kickass boss music, didn't it? :P

So i listened to it. I played Secret of Mana back in the day. Sick game, good fun. And I didn't recognize the song at first from the game, but it still feels like something from Secret of Mana. Anyways, it started off and I was like eh, with the repetitive line. And thought it might've been a joke or something, but then it kicked in. And man, that was WICKED INTENSE. 1:37 when it all kicks up, i was like THIS IS SICK. So excellent job man.

How did you make it? Did you actually play it with a synthesize, or did you rip it straight from the game and mix it up like that?

Actually I use a program called FruityLoops, and the instruments were packs that came with it. I listened to it (and okay, I had to pick it apart a bit to get all the pieces) but I basically compiled it by ear. I'm glad you liked it so much!

Loved the song. It was nostalgic and intense. Had every element of crazy and chaos in there that made the song what it was in the first place.

w0rd. lol
