Video Game Orchestrations

[Akiro]

I did not "compose" the songs, so I guess they should belong in here.

I've started to orchestrate a couple of songs just to change them around a bit.

Every orchestration I make has ALMOST all different instruments than the normal song has.  A couple I have made dark.  (Don't mind the notes  )

P.S. I rarely keep some instruments the same instrument that they are, so you will see like something labeled as "Oboe" soundling like a warm pad or something.  I normally label them what they are on the first page.
I'm also going by sound more by playablitly

i've only listened to Title & Intro, but it was pretty darn cool. i'll listen to the rest later.

I'm not a piano expert, but here's what I thought:
Dark Dark Overworld: It was too dark to my taste.

Norm Dark World: Something seemed to be missing. I don't know what it is.

Lost Woods: Awesome, but repetitive. It's not your fault.

Title and Intro: I loved it all.

Ending: One simple word(in caps): AMAZING.

Steep Hill songs: I almost fell asleep. It wasn't your fault... I just don't like the song. It was very boring.

So! That's my opinion. Overall, I would say that you have a lot of time on your hands. But you use it well.

Thanks for the comments 

The Dark World Overworld which I darkened is supposed to sound really dark, so some of you may not like it.
I will try to do a couple orchestrations per week.

The blue will stay on the song until the next day.

As you can see, I try to put piano into every one I make.

i finished  listening to most of them, and man you are really good at this. those songs sound really professional (Concerto would like them ), but some are a little repetitive. but really good though!

[Akiro]

Thanks.

I was on spring break at the time so I had much time, but I'm back to school so I can't work on some as much.

I can tell you that I'm doing Monkey Smash right now.

btw, listen to the WHOLE song on each, cause if the song is repetitive, I add more instruments when it repeats. (normally)

[zora_dude]

good i like your dark version of the dark world!!!

and i like the title and intro song also!

[Akiro]

Thank ye very much 

[FallenPianist]

Here's what i think
Dark Wolrd (Dark version): Sounds a little bit too dark for me...(like brawl4ever said)

Dark World(Light Version): Very nice!Sounds really nice

Lost Wood:I just did not like this song, but sounds nice

Title & Intro: TOO NICE!!I just love it!

Windfall Island: Nice song

[Akiro]

Thanks guys.

I guess everyone likes the Title & Intro 

[blah54]

The Dark World Overworld (light) is good... but you're missing the melody in parts 27-34

i'm not so fond of the "dark" version, sounds really... weird...

LLTP Ending is lacking in bass instruments...

Windfall Island sounds good, but the timpani part lol... are you sure you didn't want a different drum? like toms?

[Akiro]

You know I've been screwing around when I made these, I changed mostly all the instruments.
