Kirbys Dream Land 3 - Ripple Field 1 (renoise arrangement) John Joy Tay 2024-10-13 | i caved in and bought renoisefor a tracker with daw features like track mixers, vst support, automation, filters etc., it's pretty impressive what you can do with it. finally i get to do hq music without having to wrap my head around more conventional daws; i like the inconvenience of modern tracker interfaces myself, actually.the first time i had to arrange for something hq like this, the biggest obstacle and wake-up call i had to face was the fact that uh, my mixing skills weren't up to snuff. fixing it was a nightmare. biggest thing i didn't know at the time of arranging was that sidechaining the bass was really important, otherwise the bass drum (kick) wouldn't be heard and be overpowered by the bass. this was pointed out to me by a server member of ours, lolwe. they've been mixing for about 7-8 years and counting so they understand it pretty well... and actually the final mix was made just this morning to actually fix the entire mix lol.other more minor mixing issues were ironed out with eq-ing, which i have a bit of experience of, though it was pointed out by dinebon_, yet another (new!) server member, who was primarily a bassist. they also pointed out some unwanted dissonance i had put in for the arrangement.i understand that mixing is pretty much subjective and everyone does it differently, but it should be worth pointing out that there are some rookie mistakes that someone like me _can_ make. i may be a good arranger but this mix wouldn't have sounded better if it weren't for people giving me advice and pointers on how to fix things. i definitely think that getting input from a variety of artists who have different strengths helps to put a mix together and give listeners a more comfortable listening experience, so from now on, i'll be at the very least, sidechaining my basslines with the kick for better mixing. sorry if this doesn't sound great for everyone lolthe vst i used on the other hand, has _a lot_ of technical problems.i think we all here love the sound canvas series of midi synthesizers, but i unfortunately do not have the money to buy the physical hardware (yet), so i stuck to the roland cloud sc vst. god, it is a terrible technical mess...obviously the sc is sampled beautifully, and is iconic in the video game music world, but how the hell do you mess up a vst _this_ badly? it has _inverted stereo_, which is, a fad from waaaaaay back when. i'm happy i got to simply fix this through audacity but good grief, man. i had to export each instrument one by one just so i could identify which instruments were cancelling themselves out on mono and which ones weren't. genuinely horrifying stuff. there are also the in-built low-end and high-end boosters, but what about the mids? i'm going to assume that it's just a feature of the time but god i honestly wish they added middle frequency knobs. not that i can't fix that with eq post-production, but i'd rather not do that (especially for the main melody) unless if the problem really is a big deal. again, i love the sound canvas, but i wish that the vst were better; the technical problems i had to work with ended up souring the experience. i wish people could actually fix it some day and turn it into something greater. i'll likely use the vst again but i also want to mix in other instrument and sample libraries as well!in the meantime, this arrange gave me a crave for kirby again. i love kdl3 sm, it is my favorite game of the gb - snes era of games. idk how but jun ishikawa writes these intoxicating songs for kirby and i am just left to rot listening to them. they are waaaayy too good.Song name: Kirby's Dream Land 3 - Ripple Field 1 (renoise arrangement)Written by Jun Ishikawa;Arranged by John TayMixed with Audacitydownloadsdrive.google.com/drive/folders/1JKv9R4_uX7JHbPAE3MoRSTW4WmpWV-6r?usp=drive_linkdiscorddiscord.gg/WvNP6crtwittertwitter.com/johntayjinftumblrjohntayjinf.tumblr.complease read the channel description

rrthiel - athletic (vocal mix) John Joy Tay 2024-08-29 | for anyone who wants the commentary:the pain of vocal production on a tracker with simple detuning controlsno, genuinely i can't tell you how frustrating the vocals were to tune; first i set the entire project to 435hz (440 is the default tuning that every single daw in existence uses), but the consequence of that is that it also lightly detuned every single sample, making timing very difficult to manage. i felt like the devil having to artificially extend my vocals to fit both the timing and get the tuning right, but you win some you lose some i guess.on top of that i feel very unsure about my own vocal performance and there'd be a few noticeable tuning mistakes, i think? i mean before i tuned them again tonight they were even worse, but apparently the trick to that is just to listen to them outside my headphones; because listening to the lower frequencies to tune vocals isn't going to give great results. or maybe that's just me and my habits. my shit phone audio that exposed the mid frequencies did a good job at telling me that, "hey, you tune terrible for a gal that likes to say she does music production to people when you like silly video games and music that came out before you were even conceived"venus theory made a very good point about having a "shitbox" (like, a boombox that is shit) youtu.be/1iK1wSciUkM so it exposes frequencies you would've never heard otherwise, and that was quite the enlightening experience to say the least. i wouldn't say my tuning is terrible; frankly i think it's fairly okay for someone with informal training and practice, but i genuinely didn't expect to go so out of tune in my one (yes, one) take of the main vocals... and then i learnt that way that the voice that you think you're singing varies widely with what's actually produced from your vocal cords, your mouth shape, and how much air you put into it. needless to say this was a really good, and *horrifying* learning experience, and hopefully this means more vocal covers and originals in the future.as for the lyrics, i was going for the "mindless 80s love song" cheesy lovey dovey kind, and was inspired slowly after a few listens of the og song. it's not my first time writing english lyrics, but it's fair to say that it's really rare coming from me.Lyricssometimes i feel like i'm afraid of heights(don't look down now)sometimes i feel like i wanna hold you tightoh you would never know the sight,because right now we're so high we could almost diebut now you're here with me, i'm like on ecstasyif anything ever happens i won't mind'cause with the two of us, our hearts combinedwe'll always have our time to shinetogether we can find a place or run awayit's okayyou could pretend that we would be so farbut i will find my way 'cause you're my north stari hope that you and i are on pari don't wanna put my feelings in a jaris it just my mind that is pacing,my chest that is achingthe things i wanna say could be said everydayis it just my heart that is racing,the love we'll be sharingand we will never say goodbyeyou see that all is fine,now put your worries all aside[guitar solo]'cause with the two of us, our hearts combinedwe'll always have our time to shinetogether we can find a place or run awayit's okayyou could pretend that we would be so farbut i will find my way 'cause you're my north stari hope that you and i are on pari don't wanna put my feelings in a jaris it just my mind that is pacing,my chest that is achingthe memories we'll make will never fadeis it just my heart that is racing,the love we'll be sharingand i will always play my partwe should take on the charts,or maybe begin from the startSong name: rrthiel - athletic (vocal mix)Alt. name: Athletic LoveWritten by RRThiel;Arrange and lyrics by John "Joy" Tay;Made with tildearrow's Furnace tracker;(Lightly) mastered with Audacitydownloadsdrive.google.com/drive/folders/110W4wzU9_mHm_gocFu-9GWx2Nm6bWrtI?usp=drive_linkdiscorddiscord.gg/WvNP6crtwittertwitter.com/johntayjinftumblrjohntayjinf.tumblr.comko-fiko-fi.com/johntayjinfbandcampjohntayjinf.bandcamp.complease read the channel description

have i grown [x2 ym2151 + x2 ymz280b] John Joy Tay 2024-08-03 | this was made for our year-end chinese assignment, so obviously this song is in chinese. actually not too happy with it, but when i've spent abt a good month working on this i might as well post it to the channel. i've left my audience waiting for too long anyway.genuinely the only thing i'm not happy with is the vocal execution and its mixing. incredibly amateur stuff. i hate it. maybe i'm just insecure with how i sound on mic, which is very funny because i thought i sounded fine when i tried singing to a ginger root song. maybe i just wrote the wrong song for my voice ig. i don't think i deserve to sell this on bandcamp thoughalso in regards to the future of this channel, i'll definitely have to be on hiatus for longer. stuck in school rn, and it's the only thing that's halting music production. because of the important exams we registered for, we have to focus our attention on it. even if i don't think it matters to me as much as it did, i unfortunately can't spend much time making music, added up with all the homework we have to do, this channel is basically abandoned.regardless, cheers to probably many more experiments in the futureSong name: have i grown [x2 ym2151 + x2 ymz280b]Written and arranged by John "Joy" Tay;Additional guitar playing made with Caustic 3Made with tildearrow's Furnace trackerMixed with Audacitydownloadsdrive.google.com/drive/folders/1LzLGQ4v-wGSIczvmiItWtjCLjdGbVP0T?usp=drive_linkdiscorddiscord.gg/WvNP6crtwittertwitter.com/johntayjinftumblrjohntayjinf.tumblr.comko-fiko-fi.com/johntayjinfbandcampjohntayjinf.bandcamp.complease read the channel description

Yuji Ohno, Ichiro Mizuki - Love Theme from Lupin III (Vocal Ver.) John Joy Tay 2023-11-07 | This is the first time I've uploaded something that isn't of my own. Honestly really surprising coming from my part.This vocal version of the Love Theme from Lupin III Part 2/ Red Jacket is extremely hard to come by normally on YouTube; I've been desperate finding it for months, only recently knowing that the original uploads are actually blocked worldwide. No wonder it was so hard finding this.I however managed to come by it from a full album upload of Lupin The Third Vocal Selection Vol. 1 by Wallside Fly (here: youtu.be/ZR_sOd_6mMg?si=8kV5nCispxHJvTkH). I then trimmed the audio to just the Love Theme. Originally I was going to upload it with the Vocal Selection album cover, but I then decided that I upload it with its first ever release instead, which was on the Theme from Lupin III / Love Theme from Lupin III vinyl release. It has what it says; its A-side being Theme from Lupin III, and its B-side being the Love Theme from Lupin III, both the vocal versions used in Red Jacket Season 2. The Lupin III Fandom Wiki and VGMdb coming in clutch with this one.The Love Theme is pretty killer and all but I've always thought it'd go so much better with vocals, and recently binging the Red Jacket seasons reminded me of how charming and on point this vocal version is. Truly unfortunate that Ichiro Mizuki died from lung cancer in December 2022. My deepest condolences to him and his family. I'll try to cover the Love Theme some day; maybe even spin it for my own with my very own arrangement.Yuji Ohno has been a favorite jazz artist of mine ever since I've started watching Lupin III, and I'm very glad that's the case because I've been listening to this kinda stuff for a long time. It's good to have an inspiration like him under my musical arsenal, though I admittedly have some catching up to do. Glad to be a fan, though!Song Credits (from VGMdb):SIDE 2: 2nd Ending Theme (episodes 27~51)Lyrics by Kazuya SenkeComposed and Arranged by Yuji OhnoVocals by Ichiro MizukiAccompaniment by You & Explosion BandI'm incredibly lazy to do music at the moment, so I guess I'll catch ya' later!
