So many good first submissions lately, and memorable ones too. If you have even a passing interest in Kid Icarus or rock-solid instrumental arranging, you'll love this ReMix from ZhayTee aka Joseph Toscano. Josephy actually did the music for the popular racign game featuring the linux mascot Tux, Tux Racer. Pretty cool, eh? Check out his work at zhaymusic.com. This arrangement captures the spirit of Kid Icarus, which to me is one of optimistic adventure. Beginning with what sounds like a colonial march with snare and flute, things quickly get more complex with a timpani roll, full strings, etc., then more winds enter and do some quite cool chord patters. Then trumpets take over, yielding to flute with violin solo. Elements switch from solo to ensemble invisibly and the entire arrangement just feels very professional and well-planned. Plus, you gotta love that intro. All sounds are high quality enough to be exposed without raising any eyebrows. Very slick stuff - I'm a sucker for well-constructed orchestrations such as this, and the style worked immaculately with this particular theme. Highly recommended.
