30. Toad Town (M&L: Partners in Time Orchestrated HD ReMIX)

If I had a nickel for every destroyed and abandoned residential area with a sad soundtrack that we visit in this game... This track was another relatively simple arrangement. I really enjoyed getting to use some nice choir samples here! I wonder when we'll get to hear them again... I really like how the pizz string part changes when the choir comes in, and I tried to really emphasize it here. One thing I did have to put some extra work into was that very brief vibraphone part that comes in right before the choir entrance! The original sample is clearly meant to be a vibraphone with the fan motor on, but none of the vibraphone samples I have are sampled with said motor! So I took some time to try to recreate the very slight wobbling effect using effects, and I'd say I got something that sounds pretty satisfactory in that regard. However, it's a pretty subtle effect and I'm not sure how audible it is in the final track... but I'm happy to do it anyway for more accuracy! ======= Have some links!
