I mean, a world half covered in ice, half in fire and lava. It's unbelievably epic. And of course, The one and only Grant Kirkhope created a theme even more epic than the world itself. I tried to arrange it as a semi-medley type deal, including both the fire side, icy side and boss battle themes. <br /> <br />A big thanks to my buddy Erik Thiderman who let me borrow his Squier! It actully sounds really brutal, especially in lower tunings. <br /> <br />I've been including my own favorite music styles more in my covers lately, I hope that doesn't bother anyone. <br /> <br /> Also, I'm sorry for using a bunch of cheesy keyboard stock sounds, I wanted to keep part of the MIDI sound on parts. Personally I think the effect is quite fabulous. :) <br /> <br />As usual, I appreciate any and all mixing and mastering tips. I'm not all that good at it.
