Sonic Frontiers: Undefeatable - Orchestral Metal Remix

A symphonic metal cover of the Giganto boss fight theme.

This one was made part in celebration of the Sonic 3 movie releasing, and part because I've been asked to do Sonic music a couple of times. So what better time than now to answer that.

Luckily for me, I didn't have to transcribe it from scratch, as there was a pretty good reference available up to the end of chorus 1. And with the rest of the song mostly just repeating what came before, it was simple enough to finish.

After applying some minor correction, I started by doing the guitars, which I opted to not change a whole lot. I removed the high notes from the chords in the chorus and changed most of the open strokes to palm mutes. The second big change was altering the solo. This went through a couple of revisions, but nothing major.

For the vocals, it was surprisingly simple to adapt. Being that the synth used here isn't capable of doing metalcore singing, I figured I'd have to jump through a bunch of hoops to adapt them to a different genre. Though with that said, I opted to change some of the atonal gestures to instrumentals.

Time spent working on the track:
37 hours.
