I know that the only two songs that I have managed so far arranging in LMMS have been from the Pokemon franchise but I couldn't help myself in working on another. I bring you - the legendary Johto Wild Battle theme!
One of my better performing videos from many moons ago, I decided to tackle the Anime version this time around and have loved trying to learn the new intricacies of having far more channels at your fingertips.
The small additional chords that add so much to the piece. The little arpeggios and flourishes before the next chord to simulate the pianist gracefully walking their hands along the grand piano. As whimsical as it may seem, I do tend to think about how an actual musician would perform a piece such as this. I am sure that they would take care and have great enthusiasm, as does the great Lang Lang have.
Such expression.
Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments below and any potential ideas for the next venture!
All the best.

![[Remix] Final Fantasy X - Battle Theme (SunVox)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/e055BMYMYUk/mqdefault.jpg "[Remix] Final Fantasy X - Battle Theme (SunVox)
I absolutely adore the music by The Black Mages. The new and interesting spins that they put on some of Uematsu-sans works over the years are truly spectacular. Some personal favourites being from the FFIII, FFVII and FFVIII games that they do. And, of course, Seymours final battle theme from Final Fantasy X!
They never actually gave their spin on the battle theme from FFX so I thought that I would give it a try in a (very) vaguely inspired Black Mages style but mostly my own style and original ideas in the second half of the track.
In terms of the overall sound, I love what I was able to come up with here. The instruments seem to blend together well and I like some of the off-beat notes coming together to really amp things up and move into a battling flow with that faster slap bass. It actually sounds great when that bass is put into double-time essentially and doesnt completely overwhelm the other instruments which was an added boon.
I know that my transitions between sections were definitely lacking though. Its a little jarring in a couple of sections, making me think that it sounds like two or three songs have been slapped together - more like a medley perhaps but it definitely wasnt intended to be that way. I just wanted to bring together the mood of the original and then move into something more flowing in the second half.
I hope you enjoyed this one! Let me know what you think in the comments below as always.
All the best.
