--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roxas' Theme is easily one of my personal favorites from the Kingdom Hearts series, along with some others that I'll definitely be doing once I finally get a good idea for them (if you haven't caught on I REALLY like Kingdom Hearts). If you listen to the piano part, you can hear in some spots I borrowed from Xion's Theme and Kairi's Theme in the background: just a neat little Easter Egg I worked in that fit the chords nicely. Usually, I find myself having a little more difficulty arranging more orchestral stuff, but this seemed to happen pretty easily, and I ended up REALLY liking the arrangement, even if it is pretty plain. I experimented a little bit with my mic placement and gain settings this time because, "You can't polish a turd," and it's high time I stopped recording turds. Also, neat little gameplay footage: most of what I pulled was from Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix because it's what I've played most recently and have freshest in my mind.

Also, I'm trying new stuff with my design! My thumbnail is a little different than the usual formula I've developed, and I'm considering moving to a different "template", or even away from one entirely. Let me know if you like the new thumbnail design down in the comments, constructive criticism is always welcome! I'm also experimenting with designing a logo (again), as I feel like the awkward picture of my face that's there could drive off potential viewers (if you happen to do graphic design and wouldn't mind doing some free work, feel free to hit me up).

I teased my next video last week, but I liked this video better, so it got to go first - Dearly Beloved: Trombone Octet. IT'S NEXT... Unless a certain thing I'm expecting happens relatively soon. Then I might need to adjust my plan for it again.
