After months of work I'm happy to finally share with you my biggest, most ambitious project to date: Pokémon Colosseum!

What was I thinking getting into this? I suppose I felt it was time to give myself a challenge. I wanted to create something different from a standard video game cover. I wanted to do something over-the-top, epic, extraordinary, while at the same time conveying the overall mood of the game as accurately as possible in one giant yet compact medley. And a challenge it was. I really pushed my arranging, playing, recording, mixing, and production skills to new places with this one. I feel that coming out of this, I have improved significantly in all these areas.
So why Pokémon Colosseum? Out of all the games that I've played, Colosseum had a soundtrack that really stood out to me. It has a distinctive, unifying mood to it, something that isn't easy to accomplish in a video game soundtrack. Another feature that really unifies the soundtrack is the sharing of small motifs across the different tracks. Not immediately noticeable though, but enough to subconsciously make the correlation. And of course it has some bitchin' guitar solos. Many thanks to Mr. Tsukasa Tawada for composing this fine music, it was truly a pleasure to play.
