Explorer Encounter (Divided Singularity Remix)

in dsound •  7 years ago  (edited)


In case you didn't know, Microsoft seems to have a thing for Anime mascots. 4 years ago, they made one named Inori Aizawa and an short film for the (then-current) Internet Explorer 11 to show how IE had transformed from a shit browser to a better but still not Chrome level one. 4 years later, IE is dead but Inori is still around as the mascot for the way better (still not Chrome but way closer) Edge browser built into Windows 10.

I absoutely love the song from said short film so I figured, why not do a remix! This time I experimented a lot more than my usual remix process. Usually, I just take a MIDI file, run it through multiple soundfonts, and combine them alongside the original song. Technically that means my "remixes" are usually "dual mixes". This time instead, I did two things different:

  1. Made 3 versions, one being the just the normal MIDI, one being a more sad sounding variant, and lastly one being the full "Dual Mix" with the normal MIDI like I've done in the past.
  2. Instead of just changing the soundfont, I changed the instruments themselves across the multiple soundfonts. For instance, one part might be a Drum Kit from the SGM sound font while another could be a Guitar using samples from the game Battlemaniacs.

Speaking of the dual mix and sad variant, both are exclusively on Bandcamp. The Normal and Sad variants are both a free download but the Dual Mix is only if you buy the full album combined for any price you name, minimum $1.

People who can't pay still can stream and download both the normal and sad variants on Bandcamp (see below for instructions), only the Dual Mix itself is paid.
