Hey all, working on Katt's Theme, a small jingle from Star Fox 64!

Let me know if you have any feedback.  I think I need to change the .mus file to E minor but I couldn't seem to figure out how to get that to work.

However, I am adding several arrangements tonight!  I will only be posting PDFs and MUS from here on out, but I will put up other files if they are requested.  See my YouTube for audio. (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYBbF5TyViqbEVIqRlaNNF28bU-isYYpD)

Just about full circle.  When the pandemic caused everything to lock down in March 2020, I picked up the piano again after touching it only here and there after high school.  Outside of some beginner books, my first picks upon restarting were to go back to NinSheetMusic (which I had used for several years prior), download and print some songs that seemed about right for myself, and begin playing.

About a year ago, I was looking to do something new in the summer, and I decided to give arranging a go.  For several years, I had enjoyed listening to BespinBen on YouTube, as well as diving through the various categories on site and printing off sheets; I guess I kind of wanted to try to make a contribution myself to the library of NinSheet. 

Now a little under a year later, I just wanted to say thanks to those who are a part of the community for helping me learn so much about not only piano, but arranging in general.  It's been pretty fun getting into this, and I hope to keep contributing for a while to come

Nani???  What's this???  A PA Post???



That's right, with inspiration after today's event, as well as some other projects wrapping up in my life, I finally got around to doing some more arranging. Over the next week or so, I hope to post at least two or three arrangements in total, depending on my freedom to work on them.

As for today, I give you the Title Screen music from Pokémon X & Pokémon Y.  Yeah, it's the same old main series theme, but I have always enjoyed this particular version.  Something about starting up Pokémon Y, hearing those triplets and the subtle main motif before opening into the main melody as Yveltal flaps along on screen... it really makes me soar.  A great blend of nostalgia, adventure, and satisfaction that Pokémon is back, and it's in 3D.

This might be a reach and a copy of this trend.  But I'm gonna give this a go, and try to avoid doing a bunch of jingles and short pieces... or just adding arrangements I haven't put on here yet.  No cop outs.

Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness - Dr. Kaminko's Manor


This is a quirky tune that plays inside Dr. Kaminko's house, who is a somewhat important side character in Pokémon XD.  It's a humorous tune noteable for its association with his assistant Chobin, and the contrast of the mysterious sounding exterior music.  I remember the moment of entering this house for the first time rather fondly with how the tension of Chobin accusing you of being a trespasser goes away.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Tournament (In Progress)


For day 2, it's the upbeat theme you wake up to when it's Tourney Day in New Horizons!  Maybe not the most known set of tracks in the game, but the tournament songs are really fun combo tunes (though I am not planning on doing the song that plays for when you're mid-tournament this time around unfortunately).  The tuba is the most underrated instrument in the NH soundtrack imo

Overall though, this was fun... if I get back around to this at some point though I might consider adapting some of the snare hits into pitches.  But on the flipside, the space is somewhat satisfying to my ear...?



please please please don't listen to the playback idk how to make it happen I tried everything

Godzilla: Monster of Monsters - Intro / Mars


Okay so today's attempt at staying within the song lyrics isn't that factually true.  There are more than 3 monsters in Godzilla: Monster of Monsters, but you can only play as two, and the introduction scene that this song plays during only specifies King Ghidorah as the evil monster (you fight a decent handful in the game).

Maybe you've heard of this game because of AVGN, maybe from the creepypasta (which I didn't know was a thing till this past year).  It's not that great a game, and the music is decent-ish for the NES era.  As a kid though (before I discovered much better Godzilla games), Godzilla in a video game?  And I can be Mothra?  Now that was awesome.

This is the oldest song I think I've arranged yet (track name is what Niko's 8 Bit Stereo calls it on YouTube).  I've always kinda gravitated to this track for its hopeful direction in the face of an alien invasion, but it is admittedly a little lackluster when adapting its channels to the keys of a piano.

CT Special Forces 2: Back In The Trenches - Sniper


Might be the most or second most obscure game for my 12 days, depends on if I get to the clear favorite lol.

There are indeed 4 playable special operators in CT Special Forces 2: Back In The Trenches, also known as CT Special Forces 2: Back To Hell in the PAL region.  For a while, I had no idea who the composers were to this OST because it says Shin'en Multimedia in the credits instead of a person, and even though I emailed the company a few years ago, I still didn't know the answer.  But someone included composer info on the Wikipedia page!  It seems like they check out.

Anyway, this was my favorite GBA game as a kid, before I discovered Pokémon no less.  I've seen it described as Metal Slug like, but having hardly played Metal Slug I have no frame of reference.  This song is not what I was intending to post for today (the one I was going to didn't work out super well so I went with this), but I have a second song from it I will probably post for one of the other 12 days.  As the title indicates, it plays during a sniping segment, which functions more as an extra lives minigame.

Metroid Fusion - Sector 5 (ARC)


So there are six sectors in Metroid Fusion.... at least until you send Sector 6 plummeting to Planet SR 338's surface (precluding the rest of the BSL station of course).  Today's arrangement is the Arctic Sector 5, which was a bit ear piercing after a while to arrange for as short as it is.  Thought it was fitting, since we got a bit of snow today.

Battlefield 3 - Solomon's Theme


Battlefield 3 was one of my favorite shooters of the last decade- it actually came out a little over a decade ago at this point (the memories  :'().  Yes, it's pretty formulaic in a sense by today's standards, but back then, whoa I had never played anything like it.  Battlefield had existed before of course, but this was the big return to 64 player game modes, along with the destruction features of more recent Battlefield titles. 

Anyway, this is the theme of the main villain in the campaign.  Not a memorable foe by any means... I think he was French?  This theme is most known to gamers though because an abridged version of Solomon's Theme plays when you lose a match.  Also people in the Battlefield fanbase used to like to make piano covers of it, though they were not quite that faithful to the song beyond the melody (probably for the better...).

Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire Version - Trainers' Eyes Meet (Hiker)


I was delighted last night to find there are 8 hiker trainers in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire versions. 

This goofy sounding march is probably my favorite trainer encounter theme from Pokémon, outside of Cynthia's trainer theme maybe. I have a lot of nostalgia associated with this; my brother and I used to grind Ruby and Sapphire together, and we would constantly be rematching trainers, particularly the hikers (I think we thought their locations were convenient, and you could gain a decent amount of experience from all their Geodudes and Gravelers).  One of the hikers we found quite funny, who would shout Yodelayhihoo! at you and expect you to shout it back because there wasn't an echo in the location.  They all seem so aloof and oafish, and this jolly theme matches that perfectly.

I've left out the pluckier inner part on this currently because it doesn't seem like it fits in well with a piano part, but maybe later down the line I'll sprinkle it in (probably while there is a RH held note).

Yeah there's more than 9 tracks in F-Zero... but there are 9 if you exclude any of the II or III variations of tracks!

This is a pretty short track, but a calming and relaxed classic (in contrast to almost every other track from the series) that I was first introduced to by the Captain Falcon main Fatality, who used to use this as his YouTube ending screen. Perhaps some will not agree with the cut time choice, but that was how I was feeling the beat when arranging this.

CT Special Forces 2: Back In The Trenches - Snow (North America) / Game Over


More CT Special Forces, this time the snow level theme (which also is the game over theme - you can have a maximum of 10 lives).  The level themes are pretty good in this game overall, and I think this or the Middle Eastern one are my favorite.  This particular level has a frustrating part where you have to diffuse 4 bombs in a short time period.  They are spread throughout the base fairly far apart (though it is a mostly linear level), but it's easy to lose a lot of lives failing at the countdown.  And then immediately after, you fight a boss!  The game is not very difficult overall, but the final boss is hard for the weird fact that you can only win by shooting explosives right next to it or tossing grenades over a front plow.  While dodging rolling barrels and falling bombs.

Kirby Star Allies - Echo's Edge


Welp, I made it up to Day 11, and made an excuse one way or another why each song was in that position for the day.  There's way more than 11 helpers in Star Allies, even if you're just counting DLC it doesn't add up nicely  :P

On the song though, one of my fav level themes from Star Allies - especially the chord changes at 0:31  ;D.  The atmosphere is good enough to take you out of the absolute cakewalk of a level Echo's Edge is (along with most of the game).

Might change this one around a bit if I ever submit it, have definitely cooled a bit on it since I started this a month or so ago.  The LH part could've gone a few separate ways, either extremely basic with just the bass notes, or like what I did, combining the ascending piano notes with the bass.  Admittedly, to pull it off, it drops the bass pulse off at parts and kind of feels awkward coming in and back out, so in the future I might change up the notes so that it's intervals instead of the actual ascending notes.  Would love to hear other ideas as well!

Welp, this is what happens when there's a mandatory viewing of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation right after dinner.  But hey, I guess like Sam Wainwright in It's a Wonderful Life, I come in at the nick of time with my sheet  8)

There are two versions of "Toy Day" in New Horizons, one for either if it's a sunny day or if it's snowing.  I just did one though, because the snowy version just seemed to add some sparse drumming, which in my opinion didn't need to be translated into another version (the added parts would probably clutter the existing and appropriate sparseness where it exists).

Finally, let's round off 12 Days of Sheetsmas all at once!  This was a fun thing to do over the past 12 days, but I'm kinda glad to now have the daily aspect off my back for another 353 days.

Time to do the first thread update of 2022!  Not much to show up with today, just a short 8 bar piece.  I was going to submit this for February, but I'm a little dissatisfied with how it turned out so I might not after all yet.  After the first four bars, the spacey albeit straightforward chord notes that make up the LH start to see a variety of octaves come out... at least in the current blend I think I'm almost there, but I don't know if it's worth spending extra time on.

Unintentionally, I have posted two space-based arrangements in a row.

Until recently I had never actually played or heard the entirety of the first Star Fox (despite 64 being one of my all-time fav games).  It's certainly a product of its time, but I can still appreciate the innovation that the game brought.  The musical tone though, despite being for the first game in the series, evokes a feeling of 90's coolness that is not really ever replicated outside of the first game in the series.  While I love 64's soundtrack, and the more cinematic, space opera tone that its music brought to the series, Hajime Hirasawa made some bumpin tunes for your space battles in the OG game.

Then there's this.  If you want more context as to what "Out of This Dimension" is from in Star Fox, definitely watch this easter egg video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heanbi_oDUE)   No current plans to arrange the music for the slot machine boss fight.

Astute listeners will recognize this Star Fox song is itself an arrangement of Johann Strauss's Voices of Spring... after hearing the zaniness of this rendition I had to arrange it.  Hope someone can appreciate it, and that I didn't butcher the accidentals in m37-38

Pokémon Colosseum has some very memorable location themes (if you played the game lol)... while this might be your third or fourth favorite Orre town theme (i.e. most people like Phenac City, The Under or Pyrite Town's themes more), it's actually my first.  Always gravitated towards the very calm blues feeling, the harmonica, and then the string section that soars in after the first go through of the melody.  It's so rustic!  Glad that I finally took the time today to finish this and share it out there.  I've been practicing this one as well; it won't be ready for tomorrow's performances on Discord, perhaps it'll appear sometime this Spring  ;)

I know it's a fairly big thing to grapple with, but I went back and forth a lot early on on if this should be in 12/18 or 4/4 swing, and I ended up with the latter primarily because of the accompaniment part didn't look super great in 12/8 or 6/8 imo until m22.  Plus I think the swing feeling is more present than your typical 6/8 blues, but  I'd be interested in knowing what others thought though!

Did not intend to post two Pokémon town themes in a row, but here we are! 

Back to Kalos after 7 months time.  One of my favorite town themes... it's got such a relaxed and chill theme to it, but also has a forward feeling rhythm with the percussion parts.  My arrangement attempts to marry the piano and guitar dueling melodies in the section after the intro, though it favors the guitar as far as representation.  If anyone is acutely familiar with this piece, I have also made a lot of embellished rhythms out of piano/string chords that lay under each bar, given that the bass parts are fairly sparse throughout most of "Geosenge Town".

Also upload date not intentional, given the context of this location and big stone "tombs" opening up lol.  Happy Easter to all who celebrate!

Decided I'd get around to posting my Space Travel Project sheets, both of which were unfortunately not ready on time as it turned out. Not super enthused about my Rogue Squadron sheet given some arranging choices I wasn't totally satisfied with, might play around with it a bit more in the future but not anticipating submitting it anytime soon.

For "Hostiles Revisited", I would be curious to hear if anyone thinks more of the unique embellishments of this version (it is an arrangement of Sector Y from Star Fox 64 to begin with) such as at m8 and m12 should be added in; I personally wasn't sure if they detracted from the melody so I left out in my first go around at least.

Well, looks like I'm the first to it  :P, let's say I'm on European time and not that I can't count to 12 properly. My preparation for this year's 12 Days of Sheetsmas is higher than last year, but two group sessions of EU4 over the weekend took a lot of time I had planned to use for arranging so hopefully there isn't a crunch in the latter part of next week...

Keeping with Gen 5's more dramatic tone, this rendition of the Pokémon series title theme one of my favorites in the series. I remember listening all the way through when I first booted up my copy of White 2, and being astounded by the audio quality and the depth of the arrangement. I think the rendition sounds somewhat Akira Ikafube-like (original composer of the Godzilla films), which fits the kaiju aesthetic of the cover 'Mons.

While the depth made it tough to arrange for piano, and there's parts I'm not entirely satisfied with (looking at you intro RH), I still am happy to put this up as my Day 1. I had this mostly arranged and on my YouTube (in "Synthesia" form) back in October, but I did more editing in the lead up to today.

I hope you enjoy some different sheets from what you normally see from my submissions for this Christmas, no repeats of games this time!

It seems I've returned from my trip overseas. Not exactly unfamiliar arranging territory for me yet, but this one is a follow up to last year's Tournament (Waiting) theme. I think this was slightly more difficult to arrange, as it features some solo instrument parts trading alongside some lower layer chords (representing the acoustic part). Still, it feels good to put this one up, a year later to the date!

Okay. I lied. Not breaking new ground quite yet. But here's a non-replacement Star Fox: Assault sheet! This track is actually a remake of Katina from Star Fox 64, and is fairly faithful to that despite this being a live orchestra performance (this version has a lower tempo). There's some interesting stuff going on with the time signatures, and I really like the m30-38 build up. Overall, a very jubilant piece for an alien invasion.

This is the first Fire Emblem arrangement I've ever completed. I discovered this particular track, which is an arranged version of the famous "Advance" theme from Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, through the Relaxing Music from Fire Emblem Series (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sEq-cjY2Ro) compilation on YouTube; it's a great compilation containing four hours of tracks from games prior to Three Houses (it was released in 2017). This track stuck out in particular for not only the calmer rendition of a distinctive melody, but also for the piano part that seemed like it would make for a fine arrangement.

For those not aware, New Mystery of the Emblem is a remake of Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem for the Nintendo DS. It is a follow-up to the DS remake of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, and to my knowledge, it is the most recent of the series to have never seen official release out of Japan (this track name is what I see most commonly translated). I haven't played too much of the series, having 15 hours or so in a Awakening, on a file I haven't touched in at least 7 years (though many hours played as Marth, Roy, and Byleth over the years in Smash). This year though, I checked out the series' music beyond what I was familiar with from that game and Smash, and have come to really enjoy it, mainly the 3DS games and Valentia in particular.

Well I did a Battlefield sheet from a ten year old game last year, only fitting I do a Call of Duty one I guess.

This is the longest arrangement I've done to date, and while there are certainly some repetitive cut and paste bassline parts, I found it quite difficult to adapt the whole song. This track plays in abridged form on BO2's main menu with just the piano and synth parts of the full track, and in full in a few dramatic moments of the campaign. Hopefully it doesn't sound too empty at parts because I was trying to get the same deep bass sound from a piano as all the stuff Trent Reznor was playing around with this (yes, the Nine Inch Nails dude wrote this track but for some reason didn't compose the whole soundtrack like promos make it seem like he was going to (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ism8aewzdoI)).

At the end of the day, not a very difficult song to play. I like the dark, brooding feel to it, and the building tension leading to the dramatic reveal at the end.

And were half way there. Time to get thematic.

Spent a bit longer on this than I expected - it's a relatively short loop, but there's some density to what's going on and I felt I wasn't capturing it enough with my first go through.

I didn't contribute to the Mario Kart project, but if it were beyond just tracks, I guess this is my contribution lol.

Heard this many a time as a kid; the goofy, somewhat bashful tone contrasts well with the disappointment and occasional rage felt by the player. It was fun to figure out how to best work it for piano, as the accompaniment is a mix of the bassline and some modification of that plucky banjo. Haven't swung in a good while.

I have a strong feeling no one has ever heard of this game, but that's okay. Dai Senryaku, literally meaning Grand Strategy in Japan is a military turn based strategy game. And while I've never played Advanced Wars, that is the series it is often compared to (Daisenryaku/Dai Senryaku predates Famicom Wars by a few years).

The series has had only a couple releases outside of Japan, with DSVII being the one most known to players due to it releasing on Xbox and PlayStation. A later sequel did make its way on Steam in 2018, but it wasn't until last year that many of its bugs and translation issues got solved. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you are willing to pay $30 when it is on sale, and can stomach some very amateurish presentation and bad graphics. What can I say though, I've put 500+ hours into it...  :-X

The Dai Senryaku titles are very cool games for a very specific type of person, but I'm glad to have a small group of irl friends who I got hooked to it as well. Almost got some US Army officers and State Department personnel into it too at one point...

Anyway, that's enough of that, onto the track. The music in DSVII is also a bit ear grating, and I wouldn't doubt this track will have few fans as well. That said, it's like the only one I can listen to in Dai Senryaku VII. It's a very different sort of musical track for a strategy game, as most strategy game tracks are fairly dramatic, or have a march theme to them. "Green Belts", however, is rather funky, with a very cool bass part laying it down throughout the track, and even a couple synth solos. Whereas most tracks in this game are short, dramatic loops, this track is cool and laid back, almost like, "c'mon, you've got all the time in the world. Beat the map". The hardest part of the track to arrange was the end, and is also the part I look forward to the most (it sounds almost like the music is skipping, but it's actually some really interesting off beat choices).

I started this arrangement quite a while ago, and had intended to submit it for the Colors update, but it was not close to being done when the deadline hit. The reason I even bothered arranging this track though is the connection I've had to it, and that's one thing I try to bring with the arrangements I put out  ;D

Note the YouTube link starts at m21 and then loops back to the repeat. Couldn't find a proper YouTube upload, and whoever uploaded to KHInsider actually didn't rip the music right (there is a skip where it should loop at m40) KHInsider Link (https://downloads.khinsider.com/game-soundtracks/album/dai-senryaku-vii-exceed-ps2/07_Track%252007%2520-%2520Daisenryaku%2520VII%2520-%2520Exceed.mp3)

This is the second arrangement of this 12 Days that I will have discovered from a compilation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEvj44eyOVk). I've never played a Harvest Moon game before, but this track was quite nice and I have wanted to arrange it for a while. Hopefully this isn't too much of an accidental minefield; the further I got along, the more I could tell that it was getting outside my comfort zone. But a challenge is a challenge, so I likely will revisit this with less of a time constraint in the future.

Oh, and the original is pitched a bit sharp, so you'll notice that if you play the midi for this; it will be a bit jarring.

Tomorrow is Friday and the start of the Holiday Weekend, but it will be a shorter arrangement. Shorter, but relevant to world events of the past couple weeks...

In honor of the World Cup's recent conclusion, I present this gem. Though this song went viral three summers ago, it's okay if you don't recognize the name. Yes, I am talking of course about Ronaldinho Soccer, the bootleg version of International Superstar Soccer 64, the former of which was highly memed for about a month. This sheet is short, and a bit hard on the right hand. I was going to arrange this if Sports won the last project update, but it makes for good content for the 12 Days countdown

I guess this is thematic by virtue of the title. Why White Land II and not just White Land? Well I was a little short on time today, and the first seemed like it would take a bit more to arrange (I ran out of time to work on the the track I had planned to upload :P). I made some small changes to the left hand part (i.e. tying beats 1.75 and 2 and 3.75 and 4), because despite its simplicity, the bassline is quite fast.

Hope everyone had/has a nice, warm Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas everyone! For the final present of the 12 days, here is not only a Kirby classic, but also a replacement sheet. Hopefully the cheery melody of "Shiver Star" brightens a cold winter's night.

This track is definitely not one that you can do much with with by just sticking with the melody and bassline octaves as is, but if there's anyone who thinks more could be fit into the RH from m32 to the end, certainly post your comments!

And with that, my 2nd 12 Days project comes to an end. Lessons were learned last year, and this time I made sure to have more preparation for the 12 Days, both in what I had ready to work on and in what I knew I could accomplish in this time period. The goal was to focus on series that I don't usually arrange for and to avoid repeat games over the 12 Days, and I think I mostly succeeded that. Hopefully I will be able to do this again in a 2023, but until then, enjoy the rest of the holiday weekend  8)

I'm beginning a project where I'm going to be transferring sheets of mine into MuseScore. My desire is to eventually have most of my stuff available in that format with as much consistency visually as possible. Still figuring out some stuff related to margins, but thanks to Xiao's most recent template it I am mostly there.

My plan is to continue with Finale as my primary editor, so I'll be working backwards from how many are using MuseScore to export to Finale format  :P
