Hello !

With the european concerts of X Japan coming soon, i've decided to start this project of making orchestral versions of some X Japan songs that Yoshiki didn't already do in his Eternal Melody I & II albums. Here's the first one !



Thx for listening ! :)

Well I for sure like it! I could use a bit more power in some places but I don't think it's that easy without a real orchestra :)

This is my administrator color.

 :)I do like it too, how do you do it, do you use  asynthesizer?

This is good. =D

Have you actually heard Symphonic Blue Blood or Symphonic Jealousy?  Little known, but PHENOMENAL albums.

Thx !

Hypno -> yea, some parts could be better >< but i'm still learning a lot about orchestration, i hope i'll get better with the next ones.

elanor -> i use some VSTs. ;)

ForeverFades -> yea i heard them, but to be honest, i don't like most of their versions. :/

I respect that. :3

I just like the different takes on them.  Granted, listening to Eternal Melody side-by-side with Symphonic Blue Blood/Jealousy, it's kinda no comparison.

But yeah, I really enjoy what you did here, ALSO I listened to your other stuff, you're going places for sure. :)

ForeverFades -> Thanks. :)

MadMiyu -> didn't understand the japanese part. xD But thx ! I need to work better on dynamics to give it a more "grand orchestra" feel. It's hard. ><

aahhh xD srry... ~~ sometimes I forget i write stuff in japanese...it was merely ' there's no orchestra(which is obvious...)'   and yh, altho you're doing a better job than i could EVER do xDDD  *fails* the only thing I can do is play bass nd piano (to an extent..)
