Why is this video important?

Thirty one minutes into John Romero - you know, the guy who created DooM, Quake, and is still changing the gaming industry… yeah, that John - anyway, he used MY doom remix at the end (31min).

Why’s this a big deal? I’m a geek, and I’m doing what we do best, and that’s GEEKING OUT. It’s not a particularly good remix, it’s very old and I did it entirely on my old Kurzweil keyboard (including the sequencing, which was a headache). I even got old Doom SFX in there.

Download it here: Doom’s Suite.mp3

Just to make sure I have this right in my head… John Romero heard my song. Used it. Whoa.

“Shine Tonight” now with 200% more Melinda (which implies no Melinda, so I’ll say that it has been Melinda-augmented)

Needs some minor tweaks and it’ll be good to go!

(for those just tuning in this is a remix of “Fragments of Memories” from Final Fantasy 8)

Poolside - SHINE TONIGHT (the fourth version, tomorrow we’ll add melinda!)

I mean seriously, this one has guitars!

Lyrics:

you know what i need,
some time away to get some air
i just can’t stay

you know what i think,
i oughta be chasing my dreams and you’re bringin’ me down
i’ve lost my way

she’s like the stars above
you know she’ll burn in your heart forever
she sings her song and she will

shine tonight
she’ll light up the whole sky like fire
when her heart sings out she’ll know

you know what i miss
those days they were just you and me
they’ve got me holdin’ on to those fragments of my memory

and girl, you know what i wish
that you were missin’ me and longin’ for my kiss

and then she’ll see, she’s never been so sure
she wipes away the tears that set her free
and i can see, you’ll never be that sure of me
so wipe away your tears and we can be

like the stars above,
you know you’ll burn in my heart forever
so hear my song and we will

shine tonight,
we’ll light up the whole sky just like fire you and me
so sing your heart baby please

(you say you lost your way but i’ll never leave your side
you got me tangled and i know i want you mine
you say you lost your way girl, you say you lost way
just look to the sky and you’ll see me shine

we’ll light the sky ablaze and sing our song they’ll hear
our voices carry on our passion it knows no fear
and when you say you just don’t know
you’ll look and you’ll see me)

Poolside - “Shine Tonight” v3.

More Poolside vs. Nobuo Uematsu (Fragments of Memories)

you know what i need,
some time away to get some air
i just can’t stay

you know what i think,
i oughta be chasing my dreams and you’re bringin’ me down
i’ve lost my way

she’s like the stars above
you know she’ll burn in your heart forever
she sings her song and she will

shine tonight
she’ll light up the whole sky like fire
when her heart sings out she’ll know

you know what i miss
those days they were just you and me
they’ve got me holdin’ on to those fragments of my memory

and girl, you know what i wish 
that you were missin’ me and longin’ for my kiss

and then she’ll see, she’s never been so sure
she wipes away the tears that set her free
and i can see, you’ll never be that sure of me
so wipe away your tears and we can be

like the stars above,
you know you’ll burn in my heart forever 
so hear my song and we will

shine tonight,
we’ll light up the whole sky just like fire you and me
so sing your heart baby please

(you say your lost your way but i’ll never leave your side
you got me tangled and i know i want you mine
you say you lost your way girl, you say you lost way 
just look to the sky and you’ll see me shine

we’ll light the sky ablaze and sing our song they’ll hear
our voices carry on our passion it knows no fear
and when you say you just don’t know
you’ll look and you’ll see me)

Free Song of the Day: “Goo Revolt (Battle Mix)” feat. Amanda Appiarius (Draft 3)

This is a version of the previously posted Goo Revolt that is intended for Indie Brawl which you can learn about (and watch a funky video) right here. They even mention my name and my old internet alias, ho ho ho.

As you can see, this music is much more intended to not only loop over and over again but it’s a little more upbeat for the general butt-kicking and whatnot required of such a genre. Needs a few fixes here and there, like something to replace the singing at the very very beginning because that’s just unattractive filler. Unless you like it. You tell me?

The glitchy-voices will be removed shortly.

Palladio - Escala

When I first started playing cello this is what I dreamed of sounding like.

So epic.

THIS - this is very much what I want my music to sound like. Electro - acoustic - insanity. I love this. Give me more.

Free Song of the Day: “Goo Revolt (feat. Amanda Appiarius)

Featuring wild guitar solos, crazy singsonging, mad choruses, and one blitzed out orchestra. And by the way, more like song of the century. phoo!!

If you like this please consider buying my music on iTunes or bandcamp. Or just throw me some money, I like when people do that.

Free Song of the Day: “Goo Revolt (feat. Amanda Appiarius)

WORLD OF GOO REMIX for Indie Brawl. Brand spanking new. Spank it. Go on - do it!
This is a remix of “Best of Times” from the World of Goo soundtrack.

Thanks to Amanda for singing for me (:~

This is a work in progress, AKA not done (: - I am aware of some things that seem to be going on with the mix but cleaning up is always the last thing I do.
