JDMEK5's Banana Hoard

[Jompa]

Well, I for one am proud

[JDMEK5]

You really like arranging already arranged arrangments don't you.

I wouldn't really call the one currently on site "arranged". Maybe "20% arranged".
I mean, there's supposed to be 9 pages of music, somehow fit on to 2? I think not.

[Bubbles]

Yeah, the one on site skips a few verses here and there.

Man I love this song

Right now the only thing I can think of is that at measure 121 when the song changes to the slow part, its also the GRAND part. Try filling it up a bit with more chords? It just seems empty to me

and yes i am listening to this whole thing

I know what you mean. That's my favorite part. But the only other option for bass that wouldn't go against the original is two eighth notes at the beginning of each measure, then one more eighth note in each measure on the last beat of said measure.
Think that'll work better?

Ummm... How can I put this nicely... DekuTrombonist did it.

[JDMEK5]

Awwww... Just kidding. I don't really mind that much. With it arranged twice, it will be super-good when it gets on the site.

[SlowPokemon]

Arranging shouldn't be about getting on the site though arranging should be for yourself. If you're happy with your arrangement, that's good. Just let the forum members decide which one they like better and not make an issue of it.

Oh ok. Yours is pretty good too!

[JDMEK5]

Thanks.

I'm not the only one having the glitch, with about 60% of Deku's arrangements, where the playback starts at some random place hundreds of measure inn? Cause that's annoying..

Deku's arrangements seem to work fine for me...

Deku's "Hyrule Field" starts at measure 184 by default, for example.
Happened to me once with an arrangement some time ago. You have to click on "Playback Settings" (the speaker next to the tempo), then you'll see "Playback Region", and "Current counter setting". Check it, and fixed.

I always do that by default because that's how notepad works. So that's my default. (What I'm used to)

And I've decided to fill up our Spirit Tracks section...

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks - Byrne Comes To The Rescue - [MUS] [MIDI] [PDF] [MP3 of original]

Leave some comments!

JD, you honestly just made my day.  This song gives me chills.

About it: listen to your mp3 again.  When the song brings in Zelda's theme, it doesn't repeat that one section over and over.  Listen to it at 0:41.  Essentially, the section you have repeated in your version is only half of the song's main theme: it continues with a few notes added in, before going back to the repeat you have.

Also, in the beginning, could you add in that B natural an octave lower from the first one?  It adds a lot.  0:02 is what I'm talking about.

Great job with the harmony, it's excellent.

And I'm so sad you can't have the full Byrne's theme in the solo version!    I need a third hand.
