Dahans' arrangements: Christmas Surprise 2014

The arrangement sounds beautiful, too. This might be a "do homework to" music or writing music later on c:

Truly a piece of art. Well done!

Thank you! I really wanted to be creative xD.

Damn... 100th arrangement. Congrats!

Did you like it?^^

Congrats on 100th arrangement and I love your G/S Medley, it has to be my favorite Pokemon just because I grew up with it.

Haha thanks a lot. Same here... I just HAD to do this medley xD.

That sounds awesome! It brings back good memories listening it.

Thank you so much . You were 3 when this game was released :O.

It's inferior to the other medley for the most part, though. This arrangement was good and it was nice to see you branch out and be creative, but there weren't many times when I thought "Now, this is amazing," except for the extremely amazing Mahogany Town remix and the Indigo Plateau place. Very nice job, I commend your efforts! But you can't seriously hope this will be accepted on the site. I wouldn't want it on the site. Unless maybe as a virtuoso piece. It's far too difficult and actually impossible at many parts, to be taken seriously as something playable.

But to listen to? This was amazing. It's going on my iPod.

I think it's not supposed to be on the site... If people want it to, then why not? The piece is DEFINITElY not unplayable (just look at Liszt's compositions. In comparison with his works, is mine very easy to play!
But I personally, don't think it's inferior to my R/S medley. It's just different. But thanks for your honest opinion .

Yeah

No! Your RSE medley is better! xD I meant it's inferior to the other GSC medley.

Hmm... inferior? that hurts a lot xD why do you think so?

Wow. Your GSC medley has convinced me you could be the successor to Maestro (he's still looking for one). If this were to go on site, my only suggestion would be to clean up the score a little (for example, there were pedal markings overlapping with the beams of notes on page 1. Just fixing those aesthetic things would help a lot.)

Haha... yeah I know this should be fixed... but after having finished the last measures I couldn't resist uploading it^^.
I don't really see myself as the successor of Maestro. If you want to call me that, no problem^^. I have a totally different arranging style than Maestro and I don't want to adapt any other style .
THanks

Congratulations on your 100th arrangement! It's well done too. I don't know if I can think of anything different to say other than I already told you yesterday...

I still remember how much fun I had playing this game...until the cartridge battery died and deleted my file xD

Thanks... this is sooooo annoying^^. Can you fix that somehow?

[Ruto]

You have to order a replacement battery, but now I don't even have a working gameboy color anymore xD

It was fun while it lasted

[Bespinben]

Funny how my Yellow, Red, and Blue versions all still work and can hold a save file, yet my Gold version can't. Heck, I've played my Yellow version more than Gold too! Oh well 

[Cobraroll]

^Red, Blue and Yellow's cartridge batteries only power the memory chip. The battery in Gold, Silver and Crystal cartridges not only power the memory of the games, but the clock as well (so it can keep track on the time and date even when you take it out of the GameBoy). Thus, G/S/C's batteries will be depleted faster.

Congrats on your 100th arrangement. I look foward to 100 more.

Great medley and congrats!! 
The only theme I miss a bit is the "Champion Battle" one. But forget about it, everything is awesome!

Alright... Winter and Jtheanonymous wanted me to arrange a medley for piano and violin. I arranged it soooo fast that I have a temperature now o.O. Well... I hope it was worth it xD. I think it's quite good. If there are sections that are too difficult/unplayable, tell me plz and I will try to fix that! Also, feel free to correct my mistakes xD. Have fun playing it!

Very nice arrangement of Route 30. Sounds brilliant.
In duple meter, the strong beats should be clearly indicated. In 4/4, those beats are beat 1 and 3. I noticed sometimes in the second layer, this wasn't the case. Measures 9 and 10 have a half note over beats 2 and 3, the syncopation in measure 13 and 14 loses the strong beat indication, and measure 18 has this problem occur in both treble and bass clef. It's alright if the note is held through the remainder of the measure (or next measure), just as long as another note does not occur in that voice (measure 5 would be fine, for example).
Every common practice period composer uses this notation whenever notating in duple meter. This makes the sight reading by the player much easier.

Same thing for the Violin/Piano medley. Also, use the same en-harmonic spellings if the note is repeated. IE, if D# was used first, used D# again when it comes around in the same melody.
Sometimes, the pizzicato violin line got really low and would become hard, almost impossible to hear with the piano playing at marked forte.
I didn't look much at bowing because neither did you. If you don't have a preference to how it's bowed, I suppose it's fine. But it certainly does look odd to have no bowing marks at all.
Sounds good though.
