Hola,
In my absense from the interweb, I decided to hone my arranging skills and decided to take an all ready made song and arrange it for an orchestra to play. So, I was listening to our beloved Aurora and was suddenly inspired.
So, for your listening pleasure (I hope) I present Aurora (Rysenated)
Basically the best way to describe it is that I've been really into film music lately (John Williams in particular) so if Sully were to ever become a movie you might hear something like this in the background. :P
Anyway, enjoy!

Just so you know, this is also awesome. I really like the part where ...well, I can't quite describe it, but where most of the instrument suite drops out around 2:10, you've got some neat semi-dramatic solo, and then every instrument starts building back up to re-enter with a bang around 2:35-2:40. I'd say it reminded me...of ...well, actually FFVII's 'The Extreme.' EDIT: It has the same drop-out style thing followed by a soft solo. /UNEDIT Really nice. And it sounds so polished.
EDIT: FFVIII's the Extreme. As in 8, not 7. Still awesome, though.

Thanks!
And actually that's my favourite part as well. I personally really like the piano at that part, which is basically just me improving around with the chords. It's actually quite a neat progression as it throws in an Eb in a key where Eb isn't normally played. It's pretty cool.
Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Wow, I've just played this three times in a row in Winamp and it's really, REALLY nice. Sod it, I'm playing it again..
And you're right, the bit where everything quietens down is good, plus the way the music picks back up again before finishing. Sadly, I'm not well versed enough musically to be able to use any sort of moderately descriptive sentences to depict the experience but I enjoyed it nontheless.

It was terrific! XD
That said, I'm sure you can do even better. For example, I personally felt that during about 1:30-2:30, the music was somewhat repetitive. It does make the climatic drop in the intruments more spell-bounding, but I'd love to hear more variety there.
Is it possible to adjust the volume of specific intruments? The drums somehow eclipsed the more melodic tunes, IMO.

Sorry, I take that back. The music wasn't really the problem between 1:30-2:00 (not -2:30), it was the over-repetition of a single tune that seemed out of place. It's nothing serious though - just a personal response.

See if you can take this to overclocked remix and make the first Verge remix on the site.

I'm completely useless at critiquing music, so I'm just going to say that this is excessively awesome, and I'm going to listen to it again. And probably again after that.

Fantastic work. They should make an all-new Sully just so that it can use this. :)

Hey, Rysen, great work. It really does sound like it would be fit for 'Sully: the Motion Picture Chronicles'. My only complaint is the note cutting is a little odd on the 'pattern 6' (according to the aurora.mod) area of your remix. I'd have liked a bit better had you used a 'duh-dit-dit-duh' pattern for the lead instrument instead of 'duh-duh-duh-duh', if you know where I'm going.
Other than that minor thing, I found it excellent. Someone should make a remixed version of 'medioval' or 'mystical waters'! Aurora is great, but what about the other cool tunes in Sully? ;__;

Actually, Zathras made a whole suite of aurora remixes for the overworld of Sully 3. He also made a Piano Collection of most of the Sully Chronicles tunes.
Forget Yahweh. You should all love and fear Zathras, instead.

Hm... So who doesn't want Rysen to supply all the music for their games? ;-) That was excellent.
