Sonic 2 - Sky Chase, Act 2 (45% complete)

The easy part is over with. I've got a good chill floaty beat for the first two and a half minutes. I've got a plan to record some acapella vocals, and I've set out a whole part with a metronome just ready for it whenever. I'm not sure what to do after that. I only have half on my instrument slots used, so afterwards I believe it would be time to take it full blast with my signature DnB style to finish it off. 

I hope this turns out well. I will have plenty of time coming up to have an extensive recording session. Might as well get everything I need as well while I'm at it.

Sonic 2 - Sky Chase (Act 2) (32% complete)

6-minute instrumental: 90%, Editing: 10%

Two days in to this project. Just something I wanted to get done quickly so that I can publish something right away instead of having to wait. Also, I'm going for more of a different vibe with this one. Something a little more chill and easy. I'm rehashing some things from my older remix in 2009 and polishing them up. So basically this is a remaster (hence the Act 2 in the title. I should probably change that eventually before I acutally publish this). Also I should mention that I'm not really planning lyrics at the moment, so that will also contribute to how quickly this gets done.

This should be quicker than most projects, I'm feeling determined

Hi everyone!

I haven't posted much music news lately. Mostly I've been doing things for Sonic Legacy, and a few other secret projects, as well as just waiting for others to be able to move on. 

I currently have 4 projects finished and ready to be released in due time, and I'm working on a few other projects currently in progress, some I can talk about but some secret ones too.

I'd love to say that big things are happening, but I'm still ashamed that I don't have a single publication for 2021 yet. And in fact I feel like things are slowing down drastically. But stay tuned, hopefully sooner than later I'll be able to do something.

Just another musical progress report. Don't mind me XD

Bonds Unbroken (81% complete)

Original track, lyrics inspired by the Sonic/Tails friendship. Instrumental is complete! Well, mostly. I've got a few loops to edit and touch up, and polish out, but that;s it. Only a few more lines to write as far as lyrics go, and as for recording, I've already got the first verse down but need a few retakes. All that's really left at this point, is the hard part. Finding time to record and go out, and editing lyrics. Hopefully I can get this one done soon, but this will be another great opportunity to train myself with the editing process, since I desperately need it

Sonic Adventure - Open Your Heart ft. Cisconic & EkoNeo (64% complete)

Finally hopping back on this one, Cisco got a new mic that he's gonna try out with new recordings for better sound. I myself, also getting back to recording and getting everything done. I have a new goal. I NEED THIS SONG DONE AND ONLINE BY THE 30th ANNIVERSARY!!! But THIS time, I actually found someone who can assist with the editing, you probably know him as Trey Nobles. Maybe I can learn a thing or two about doing this better as well. Who knows? All I know is, this will be quite the experience, it already has been. Wish us all luck! I'm shooting for my best of all time!

Know what though? This one was much better than last year's.

Not personally a fan of Mario sports games, but remakes of Ninja Gaiden, Ghosts & Goblins, and Skyward Sword, and Splatoon 3 to top it all off?

I wish I had Switch

Thought I'd give a little musical progress report, It's been a while since I've had time to do such, since my main focus has been getting music together for Episode 3 of Sonic Legacy. That should be out soon, I can't wait for that. But now, I've got to get back to some of the projects I set aside until right about now. So, here's a recap!

SONIC ADVENTURE - OPEN YOUR HEART ft. Cisconic & EkoNeo (62% complete)

So I;m over the dread of having to start this one over from a checkpoint again. I at least still have the full instrumental, including the guitars. I'm still in chats with everyone involved and hopefully we can eventually once and for all get this one finished and fixed up and ready to go online. I've already started re-recording some of my own vocals, and THIS TIME I'M GONNA SAVE EVERYTHING ON A SEPERATE HARD DRIVE BEFORE EDITING. This is my last chance at this one

BONDS UNBROKEN (60% complete)

This is the track I've been writing inspired by the friendship between Sonic and Tails. It's a DnB that's a little more on the light side, I've gotten most of the lyrics written down for it, and have already started recording for it. As for the beat itself, I've already mapped out what all I'll need to finish this track and have it estimated at around 6:15 in length. It is pretty synthy, but it includes pianos, acoustic guitars, and a fretless bass. I'm not really exploring very much with this one, I'm just using what I know already, just to put myself in a better, more creative mood. Hopefully, this won't take long.

Stay tuned, Sonic fam! I've also got 3 more tracks waiting for publication!

Haven't said anything about this yet

I for one will certainly miss Roger as Sonic. But the dude's such a talent, and has had quite the resume. He can easily find work. I remember hearing when he was first chosen to be Sonic, how excited I was that Ezio from Assassin's Creed was gonna be Sonic's voice. It'll be surprising who they find next. I heard a voice reel recently of this guy Max Mittelman (Persona 5, One Punch Man, FF7R) that I think would make a pretty good Sonic. I'll post it below 

As for Pontac, also sad to see him go. he never interacted with the fans much, so I hate to say that it's a little more difficult to sympathize. For what it was, his work was ok. Just ok. At least it filled the time and got us by. 

But with all these changes being made, it feels like they're going for a total overhaul for Sonic. And it might be just about time too . . . but one thing is clear

Things are about to get interesting. REAL interesting

Proud to announce that all the music for Episode 3 of Sonic Legacy is completed and ready for its final steps! This one includes the talents of EkoNeo, Aaron Mesquita, and myself, a remix of Sonic 1's Labyrinth, some high intensity rock 'n roll, and deep drama. I look forward to sharing this with you all! I'll know more about the release soon

Time to break up the monotony of this timeline here . . . with something random that showed up in my recommendations XD

A FEW MUSIC UPDATES

Working on a few things, I've got an original track with lyrics that I'm working on, and it's inspired by the friendship between Tails and Sonic (I call it Bonds Unbroken). That's about halfway done.

Working on Episode 3 of Sonic Legacy. and I've actually got TWO (possibly three) tracks I'm working on for that, including a collaboration with fellow musician, the very talented Aaron Mesquita on a Sonic remix, Labyrinth from Sonic 1.

There's also the Open Your Heart remix I started over a year ago. I've not given up on it yet, but after two failed attempts at the editing of it, I am still taking a break from it. Not for much longer though, I'm starting to feel a little more inspired lately

That's about it for now. HOPEFULLY I can have something up soon . . . I'm a bit ashamed of myself that I've not posted a lot this year . . . but at least I still got 4 new tracks published this year, the same amount as I did last year. Barely. I still have one more waiting for publication, soon enough. Most Legacy fans have wanted this particular one for a while, but it's not quite time . . . yet

Oh yeah, I wanted to show you guys some of Aaron's work. He's got the super dramatic sound that is just perfect for Sonic Legacy. I hope you guys enjoy his work 

SEGA did a thing, and I'm in this video as well! It was such an honor to publicly wish SEGA a great 60th anniversary along with many other wonderful people in this community! Just know that I meant every word I said. I love this family
