I made a new character on Windia!! I'm currently a lvl 179 Aran under the IGN xoBravura. Add me! :)

Shoutout to my good friend Jon for making my character so OP. LOL


Despite some unlucky moments I faced while recording (really noisy garbage truck outside, random elevator alarms going off in the hallway, accidentally permanently deleting my video Q.Q)... I had a wonderful time arranging Temple of Time.

I've been training a lot in this map so it's really nice to fully appreciate the music. Because I had always been a low level noob, I never got to a point where I was able to train in Temple of Time, thus never got to hear the music from that area. There's a lot of piano heavy soundtracks which I really like from ToT maps!



To understand a little bit more of what I did technically to achieve this performance, I did the following:

- at 0:12, I used the una corda pedal to imitate the instrument from the OST

- at 0:41, I contemplated using a celeste like in the original, but I opted out of that because I don't own one lol, and decided to play the melody in a higher register to mimic one.

- In various locations, I kept my LH octaves bouncing lightly to mimic the pizzicato as in the OST.

- The only part that does not exist in the OST is the very last section, where I tried to mimic a music box dying away, as if the time ticking is finally coming to a stop. I thought it was fitting for the theme of the piece. :)


ENJOY!!
