Sonic Legacy - When The World Is Mine (Dr. Eggman) (55% complete)

Percentage reading is now accurate. I've analyzed that I'll have over 6:30 when this is all done. I've added a few more lyrics just for somewhat of a bridge. I've got another big solo planned after this bridge, so I'll need to find something very melodic to shred with. Something like I used before in the past. Maybe I'll use my signature Sky Synth as the melodic solo lead. So many options at this point. But that's not just yet, I'm still on the bridge. I need to find a way to come in low and build it back up slow. I'm throwing in more of the fast evil strings in the bridge right before the melodic solo. And I can't be repetitive about it either. That's the real challenge with this part. I have to find a cool unique sequence and then I can continue. But hey, my vision of Dr. Eggman is really coming together. It's a wonderful feeling

Passed the halfway mark! I've really got a good solo going using the futuristic bass and a video game sounding efftect. Once again I'm gonna have to find a way to connect everything together. I'm doing so well so far. I'm gonna have to quickly figure out how I'm going to follow this up. I know that it'll be time to close out soon, I'm just a little bit from the climax now. I only kind of know what I want and how to finish it. After a little more thought,, I'll be able to map it out and have a more accurate percentage rating. It's only a matter of time now.

THERE'S the boost I was looking for! Finally!

Lyrics are fully written, and the backdrop for it all is almost completely up. After I tweak a few more things on it and find a good transition to the next part, which I've been looking forward to since I started this track. This is where I totally shred on these instrumentals. I've already got a dubstep bass established. Now I get to have some fun with it, as well as perhaps creating new instruments of such caliber. This current transition though is gonna be one tough mama. Something unique that builds into it very slowly. Much like Sonic, I'm not used to slow XD. This will take some thought

Haven't been around this too much this week. Adult life has been crazy, to say the least. Almost done writing lyrics, and I've placed the backdrop for the chorus, but I still need to do some detail work on it. I also have to go through and fix up the drums. They get a little too cluttered in the middle. Maybe find a new sequence. I was listening to a song on Pandora tonight, I wish I remembered which song it was, but I found something interesting I could use, it has to do with the bass drum, if I can make it fit somehow. I got a feeling I'll be finishing the lyrics today, now that I have the backdrop for it. Remember how I said that connecting everything together was crucial in this piece? I feel like I'm getting there. This is so exciting!

I might even post a little sample for you guys too

I REALLY need to trade my XB1 in for a Switch. I'm missing out on too much, especially when Smash comes out

Lyrics still aren't complete, but I've made a few changes to it. The challenge is to match them up with Eggman's personality and set the story. I've also finished the bridge to the chorus, and I have now begun the chorus backdrop. Silence in the drums for a couple measures before building it back up again. After the chorus I'm gonna do a bit of a beatdown with some of these futuristic instruments I've found. The difficulty is still trying to connect everything together. It's not every time that this aspect is the toughest part of writing a song, I mean, it's pretty common, but this time for some reason it's like a boss battle. Oh by the way, this could also possibly be used in a boss battle as well, according to some of Legacy's overseers (I report to them to see if I'm heading the right direction with it). So far, so wonderful. I hope I can keep this momentum up, it's a slow process for sure, it's already almost been two weeks, but it'll be so worth it in the end

Happy Michael Myers day everybody!

More lyrics have been added and the song is named! I realized that it was probably best that I would come up with a few more lyrics before continuing to know which direction to take the song. I've also started a little bit of the next part, the lyrical bridge to the chorus. I have to balance out what's new with what's old so that the transition isn't too stagnant, cause right now it flows, everything is chill up to loop 8, then loop 9 has a breakdown but it sounds really sudden. I'm going to have to fix that. I've come up with all sorts of ideas for this part and the future, so I'm pretty excited to get rolling on it. I've got the whole day and night to myself for once, so things will be done, and unfortunately I don't have enough of a social life to get invited to a party XD. I don't really have a costume anyway, unless I can find my Peewee Herman costume from two years ago (Agh, I don't have makeup though for the rosy cheeks). Anyway, snappin' to it, Slim Jim!

I told ya things were gonna start flowing a little better. I came up with a pretty cool bass transition that I put right before the lyrical part. I also now have part of the lyrical backdrop ready. I better come up with the next parts quick, I want to add a bit of a bridge before the chorus, but I'm trying to also write the actual lyrics at the same time, so I know which way for it to flow. I have a feel for what I want the chorus to sound like, and I have a potential title to call this song. It's all about connecting piece by piece from here on. Also I fixed the trumpet sequence to something a little more complex. It actually sounds like trumpets now This is gonna be great

It's proving to be way tougher than I thought but I think I finally found the sound I'm looking for. Now things should go a little quicker. This is so complex it's like nothing I've ever done before. Once I get this thing flowing it's gonna sound real good. I've gotta keep moving though. Time is a-flyin'. I added my signature Sky Synth and changed up everything else to their correct sequences, did a little volume adjusting. I added the cool rocky bass-synth from my last piece as well. It combines well with the  "woh-woh" bass I got. I may need one other adjustment to the drums, but I'll find it eventually. Tambourines perhaps, every 3rd/4 count. Or something similar

This is the wildest thing I've ever had to do. And I'm struggling with it, but maybe that's a good thing cause now I have to take my time and make sure that all transitions and all the details are really smooth and flow together nicely. The intro is just about done, just a few more tweaks to make and that will be set. Everything else should start flowing a little better after this. I'm adding a few hard synths to really raise the tensity of it. I added somewhat of a woh woh bass to it and hopefully I can get it to blend in. I know something else is missing, a background instrument of some sort. I WILL find it. I've been looking for a while, but mainly just fooling around with synth settings to find the right sounds. Things will be moving real soon

Still just laying down ideas for the intro. I have a lot of detail work to do but I did add 16 measures of quick strings. That took a whole day to come up with it was so tough. I now need to start doing some bass work and drum buildup. And I better plan something smooth out soon. I'm coming up with future plans and need to find the way to connect them. This is gonna take some hardcore thinking. I've also written a half verse of the lyrics. That took thinking too. I have to match Dr. Eggman's personality in my words, I'm finding that digging deep into my bottled up anger and being dark really helps in situations like this since, you know, Eggman's the bad guy who wants revenge on Sonic and to dominate the entire world. It's pretty fun actually. But this has to be one of the toughest things I've ever had to do overall. I'm definitely taking my time with it. Can't miss a thing

Finally have the foundation down. Trumpet chords, an orch hit, and cymbals. Still need a few details before the first loop is actually complete. But at least I'm coming up with a plan. I better be careful with it. Whatever I put down has to match what I do in the future. It's gonna be a little tough because I've got a fierce sequence to start. And I'm gonna have to find a place to put lyrics. I want them in the beginning somewhere. Its taken a while for me to come up with what I have now, just because I'm so unsure that it'll actually work. But the beauty of creation is that I can always go back and fix it if need be, if I come up with something better. It sure is one tough cookie though

STARTING PROJECT: Project 96 (Temporary name, of course)

TARGET 6 MINUTE BEAT (70%) WRITE LYRICS (10%) RECORD LYRICS (10%) EDITING (10%)

My first task with Sonic Legacy is to create a custom theme for Dr. Eggman. So far the stipulations are they need to be orchestral like his theme from Sonic 06, and yet more upbeat like his theme from Adventure 2. I suggested it be a DnB track. Seems like they like the idea. Hey, if you know me, you know that Drum 'n Bass is my main go-to genre. I've been thinking of ways to start off all night at work (and at the gym just now). So many options, my head is going crazy right now. Better get these down now while it's still fresh in my mind. I'm excited for this one, I feel like it's gonna be a big step forward

Got a new task I'm starting today. I'll post about it later after i get back from the gym. You guys are gonna like this XD

TFW you want to start another remix but don't know which level to do
