Take this as a keepsake.: drive.google.c...
I never EVER liked Light island one bit. No siree. Every single addition of monsters seemed like they all played the exact same notes of one another.
YET SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY, I ENDED UP FALLING IN ABSOLUTE LOVE with how light island was executed in the Vol. 2 Soundtrack. The progression was so heavenly and the mixing (save for the terrible treble) was just right. They knew Kayna was annoying as hell and put her so low in the mix at the best time and it made the whole thing sound much better. It ALSO VERY MUCH HELPS how the new fire monsters make fantastic additions dude giving it much more zest.
Some extra deets: I tried perhaps lowering the treble/bass on the base Light Island track to make it possibly A BIT MORE bearable on the ears cause Jesus Christ the entirety of Vol. 2 is fucked up treble up the wazoo. Despite my best efforts, I’m not sure any change is that noticeable.
I also added solos at the end of this track. Ya know, in-case anyone wanted to hear them. Tiawa and Drumi required a LOT of manual panning and effects so I was particularly happy with how these came out. Ofc I’d show em’ off. It’s not as easy as it seems giving it manual effects or even timing automatic effects for that matter. If I was another person who would just slap on these sounds on the track and call it a day, I’d probably be finished with these by now… but that would NOT be good enough for me
Wow! Yelmut doesn’t sound godawful! Granted he does sound off from his DOF counterpart but it’s not like I’d expect BBB to either get the exact same guy again/expect every rendition of every monster to sound exactly how they do on every island. Who knew that all that took in making Yelmut sound decent was by giving him a track that actually was fucking made for the goddamn island instead of pitching an already existing track jesus christ what the fuck amber.
Drummidary, really is a hoot on this island. He has been pretty mid in DOF but hot damn his MSM1 VST is one worth keeping. I couldn't wait to work on this guy in giving him a stereo effect and I'd say it turned out.... Alright. STILL GREAT THOUGH. His animation too. It's REALLLLY solid. You can see each and every drum's impact and the visuals match the intensity of the sounds. It's my favorite addition for sure.
Tiawa to no one’s surprise, ended up being another A tier addition to the island. Adds a very “Jamaican” feel to it wouldn’t you say? Early on in this remix you might think she sounds either too loud or just right… but I have the aching feeling that everyone is gonna’ say she sounds too quiet in the climax but ugh… I’m too winded at this point to take care of it this far in. I feel like I haven’t gotten a breather lately.
I’ve been out and about so goddamn much. I’ve been forcing myself to socialize and I wonder if it’s even going to get me very far. Ugh god. A guy I know and his cronies are so unbelievably hyped for Scooter Pillager the Musical on Hulu tomorrow and I just… man I DON’T WANNA BUT I’M TRYING TO BE A HALF DECENTER FRIEND AND THANKS GOBBLING IS COMING UP AND THAT MEANS FAMILY AFFAIRS AND I MET THIS GUY WHO’S INTO STOP MOTION AND WE’RE WORKING ON A LIL MOVIE BUT DEADLINE’S THE SAME DAY AS SCOTTY BOY VS. THE 7 DWARVES AND THERE'S THIS OTHER CHICK WHO INTRODUCED ME TO "EMPRESS THERESA and honestly it's kinda' my favorite book in the world atm … good lord. i’M FUCKIN TIRED.
SEE YOU LATER.
