Bespinben's Arrangements! (020: "The Way Home" [帰り]~ PKMN Super Mystery Dungeon)

[Bespinben]

Oh gosh, this has to have been one of the most difficult transcriptions I've attempted to date. Even with the song slowed down to 25% in Audacity, it was extremely difficult to decipher it's odd rhythms (and I'm still not even sure if I put the correct time signature). Oh, and it's entirely in whole tone scales, fun.  Anyway, please enjoy my latest Pokémon Mystery Dungeon arrangement~

Just awesome. That's all I can say.
Yes, you've got the right signature(s). It's meant to be 4/4 and then a bar of 3/4 and so on. Well done Ben!!

Alright!!! Well, since I finally got that done, you think I could take another PMD song off your to-do list fingerz? "There's Trouble" maybe?

[fingerz]

....Not that one, sorry. If there's one song I do want to do from those games, it's that one. I'm sure you understand.

BUT! You can have any of these.

Alright, I understand. That bass ostinato in that song is pretty awesome, after all. AND YES MT THUNDER HUZZAH

Do the others too! XD

[fingerz]

Yeah, agreed. I haven't got anywhere near the spare time I used to. XD

As requested by Clanker, here is my arrangement of PMD "Frosty Forest". Surprisingly, this is the first time in quite awhile that I've arranged a piano duet, and, even more surprisingly, my first time writing a piano duet as a 4-hands arrangement. On the song itself, I find it extremely repetitive, as the whole first 2 minutes of the song is based on a fully diminished 7th chord that modulates every 2 measures. At least Iiyoshi-san keeps things interesting by slowly adding parts over the first 2 minutes to add complexity.

Next up, PMD2 Mt. Horn!

[Bespinben]

Next up, PMD2 Mt. Horn!

Changes of plans, I'm going to be arranging the Swamp Friend Area theme from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue/Red Rescue Team next. I was just loving how it sounded like a medieval ballad, so I really wanted to do that first instead (that, and Mt. Horn's thunderous timpanis were beginning to annoy me).

[K-NiGhT]

Yay! I love that song!!!

[Clanker37]

Yeah, the only reason I haven't done Mt. Horn yet is because of those Timpanis. Oh how I would love to throw them off a bridge.

Anyway Frosty Forest is really good! Working on the solo now 

[Bespinben]

Alright! Well this one was a fun one, especially with how it sounds like a medieval ballad. The sheer diversity of Iiyoshi-san's compositions never ceases to amaze me. Please enjoy my latest PMD arrangement!

[Clanker37]

Wow. I loved that song!

But, all though I love the accuracy, why does the person have to be an octopus to play most of your songs? :/

[Sir Dino]

^ This. Nothing personal, but your arrangements are amazingly complicated bespin

[DonValentino]

It was on my to-do list, but what the heck? Yours is much better than the one I would have done. And it's one song less I have to do.
Very accurate and amazing!
