Who's excited about Kingdom Hearts 3's announcement?? Have a short and sweet cover of Twilight Town's second world music, which, like "At Dusk" both 1) uses a midi or sample oboe in the original, and 2) is actually kind of sad, haha.
Watch this space for lots of interesting things this summer! :)

I remember when Ori was released last year. I was out of town on a week-long gig, and Im not sure WHY I knew I needed to play this game - I just knew I needed it. I drove from Starbucks to malls to McDonalds to find a strong enough wifi signal so that I could download it, but didnt succeed until the last night when I settled into a hotel. It was worth it - Ori is the most achingly beautiful platformer Ive ever played, and for that first week it was all I could think about! This is in no small part thanks to the score, which even (unusually for soundtracks) features the oboe and English horn as solo instruments.
Anyway, today is the release of the Definitive Edition. A remixing group called Materia decided a few days ago that an Ori album was needed, so I jumped in with an arrangement of whats possibly my favorite track from the original. :D It doesnt stray too far, but does open with an Up the Spirit Cavern Walls nod.
Many thanks once again to Patti Rudisill for taking on the violin solos! She was in the orchestra for Oris real deal soundtrack, and if thats not the coolest thing I dont know what is.
Will update with album info after its release next week! Hope youre all doing really well, thanks for listening!

Remember Elder-Geek.coms video series, 25 Games For My Son? Theyre back with a new episode centered around Chrono Trigger, and I was honored to be asked once again to contribute to the soundtrack. This time around the album includes a wide variety of styles by a bunch of incredibly talented musicians.
Schalas theme is pretty often covered, and with good reason, but at least I dont believe anyones used actual oboe before, haha. Im glad I had a reed that could manage pitchbending without sounding totally awful...
Live instruments here are oboe, English horn, flute, piccolo, and sho.
Original music is by Yasunori Mitsuda.
Thank you Elder-Geek for the opportunity AND the sweet video outtro! Chrono Trigger will go live next week, so stop back and check it out!

Sora, youre lucky...
I almost didnt upload this here to Youtube, but my poor channel needs something to tide it over while I work on bigger pieces :)
Not to be confused with Project Destatis The Other Promise, uploaded last year, this is a straight-up cover of Roxas theme. I generally use it to track my progress on flute, but really I just love it so much that I could cover it all the time and never get tired of it.
The English horn towards the end is playing Ventus theme, right after the flute hints at Xion. Because.

You make a good Other.
Hi everyone! Hope youve been well. The reason my channel has been so quiet lately is because last month I, along with David Russell and Sebastian Wolff, released a 22-track, nearly two-hour long, fully-licensed, album of Kingdom Hearts orchestral arrangements called Project Destati: LIGHT. Its the result of an incredible amount of work and were so happy that Volume I is out into the world!
Roxas is track #15, and a KH melody that Ive always wanted to arrange. If you like what you hear, wed be honored if you would check out the rest!
