Bubbles's Arrangements

[Bubbles]

Yup. It was a request by wariopiano. Strange because I've never heard of that game before I arranged it XD

Very nice arrangement

A bit of formatting and changed the Bb (m8) to an A#

Thanks Of course I still somehow mess something up, even in a song like this

[SlowPokemon]

Yeah that will never go away; very rarely will it be perfect on the first try, no matter how experienced you get. ^^

Well, it's accurate enough, but you could do some extra things to really make it a good song.

First, a pedal or half-pedal marking would not be out of place; it's very echoey.

Also, there's more to the melody. Underneath what you have, there's an irregular rhythm that's like this.  Here's the first measure.

Finally, I would recommend making the title "Turtle Rock" for the sake of consistency with the rest of the dungeon themes on the site.

I heard the other part but it just sounded like the notes echoed themselves and faded away to me. I also considered the pedal but the left hand was so sharp that I didn't think it would work. I guess I could put it in where theres no LH though

Gotta have the game's full name on there. :-/ "The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening". The whole thing.

Other than that small thing, it's great! I think the pedal bit only sounds that way in the original because of the GBC's speakers/soundfont.
I think it's fine the way it is.

Good job!

[Bubbles]

*facepalm* I can't believe I did that, I guess I really haven't arranged in that long. I can't fix it now but I definitely will

[Bubbles]

...I havent arranged anything since July...

Ehehehehe... I always love arranging the small pieces. I remember doing ten arrangements in one day and they are all less than 10 bars each... So not cheating. XDDD

But yeah, great job with all of those! Sure, some of them are just a little simplistic in comparison to the actual pieces, but fabulous arrangements, nonetheless.

What I'd do is let your arrangements sit for a couple of days and then double-check it again to see if it's what you want. I do that and usually end up changing something. XD But yeah, keep up the great work, Bubbles!

Question: Why DO you arrange? What makes you want to arrange? Think hard on that and let me know.

[Bubbles]

I arrange mainly because I love playing piano. Seeing someone else request a song reminds me of when I just started piano and would drive myself crazy trying to find sheet music to play my favorite song. If I can arrange, I can transform a favorite tune to a written work that anyone can read. Even if I start with the small stuff, I really want to be able to do something big one day (big for me is chords with more than two notes lmao)

I actually visited NSM for a long time before I joined it (I basically had the entire Pokemon sectioned printed before I signed up ) I found Bespinben on Youtube, and when I realized he was based around here I knew I had to join and arrange myself

Said as if Bespinben was some kind of celebrity! Although his arrangements we such that they became NSM legend... Hey, we need t-shirts that say "I know Bespinben!"!

[fingerz]

Yeah, I'm not a player of video-game music, but I know what you mean. I always wanted to find sheet music just to see how it was written out and a lot of it couldn't be found. Annoyed the heck outta me, too.

Well, thanks for answering! Keep up the great work and you'll become a legend, too!
