I mentioned in a previous thread with Diaries of Olan and the Composers Edition that every year I produce an album for Christmas in honor of game music. By re-writing an entire score/soundtrack based on the pure story as if a movie score by using themes from the game composer added in with my old style of creativity.
I also mentioned that a year back, I stopped doing it because I felt unappreciated and that nobody cared or wanted to hear it. But after registering at this board and having the honor of your company, you have knocked me right back into the game. I picked up my pin immediately and decided on not one, but TWO releases. I wanted to make up for a lost year.
This year I have something very special planned for you all. But like children wanting to sneak a peak under the wrappings, I'm only going to leave little hints and clues until I unveil the covers of the albums.
I'll start you off with my first hint, and we'll go from there. You ask whatever you want, (Yes or No questions), and I'll reply yes or no. If someone hits it on the mark, the present will be opened early. Either way, the scores will be released. And for the record, I promise something that will BLOW you all away. It's time for Diaries of Olan to collect a little dust and be set aside for something new and amazing.
Okay, so here we go.
You have TWO scores coming your way. I'll give a hint for one of them. And please remember fellas, yes or no questions! We don't want Bart Simpson melting our plastic tree and ruining Xmas.
HINT: The ghost of Christmas past is here to ring his bells of a land that was once explored but recently brought back in a remake. This game I speak of has been touched by my hands and known well.
Now I know that's a HUGE hint and probably will give it completely away... but what the hell... Have fun. The sooner this one is solved, the sooner we can get to the GOOD one.
Happy Holidays everyone, and Good Luck!
Oh and by the way, the first three winners receive a special gift ( a real one ). It will be a DVD/CD set. The dvd will contain behind the scenes interviews with me, orchestrators I work with. Live session recordings and other goodies. The CD's will be the two I am releasing in MP3 format here, in pressed form. So whoever wins will be winning a master recording of each of these new scores.
Again, Good luck! (oh and in the honor of Xmas, be kind and courteous to everyone... try not to flood a million answers and/or questions or once. I can only answer so many. So for the record, I will allow one question and one answer per person, until I answer them. One at a time or you will be disqualified... and I really DON'T want to disqualify anyone. I love fans and people that appreciate my music and would never want to deprive anyone of something that can be appreciated and honored.
