Concerning my lack of Activity

Posted 10-17-2009 at 05:41 PM by Nicol Armarfi (Nicol Armarfi's Blog)

Recently, I haven't been posting much on the board, nor have I made even one new arrangement in the past few months. The reason for this is simply a lack of motivation. I've been concerned mainly with my studies and with classical music, so video game music has been way in the back of my mind, and I haven't bothered to do anything about it. I'm hoping to change that following the end of the Yoko Shimomura arrangement competition, however I'll need to find something to arrange. I'm very much...

On the Progress of My Uploads

Posted 07-08-2009 at 02:38 AM by Nicol Armarfi (Nicol Armarfi's Blog)

I've been uploading my arrangements to the new arrangement system recently. Fourty-four of them are currently online.

I've edited a few of them to cut out significant errors that were present in their original editions. Revised pieces are:

-Bloody Tears (Castlevania II)
-Battle Scene B (Final Fantasy II)
-Max 300 (DDR)
-B4u (DDR)
-Brink of Death (Chrono Cross)
-Floating Castle (Final Fantasy I)
-Eternal Wind (Final Fantasy...

DRAGON WARRIORrrrrrrrr

Posted 06-30-2009 at 12:55 AM by Nicol Armarfi (Nicol Armarfi's Blog)

Uploaded five new Dragon Quest arrangements to the archive.

The arrangements are all for viola with a piano for accompanyment (with the exception of the Menu theme, which is for two violas and piano). They are all also very easy, with the exception of To A Vast World, which contains some difficult passages, but is also for the most part relatively simple.

On the Subject of My Absence

Posted 06-25-2009 at 10:30 PM by Nicol Armarfi (Nicol Armarfi's Blog)

Recently I've not been particularly active with SquareSound in any way, shape or form. The reason for this is simply that I hadn't any reason to do so in the past few months. Furthermore, I had installed Linux again, and through some mundane errors which I made, again, ended up killing my Windows installation, which also helped my disinterest in activity.

Excuses aside, I'm glad to inform you that I will be returning to the fray relatively soon, though I must first reinstall my...

Progress (or the lack thereof)

Posted 02-21-2009 at 03:41 PM by Nicol Armarfi (Nicol Armarfi's Blog)

I've been a little busy with some other things lately, so I've not really had time to pull out any new arrangements. I did start a few, but generally wasn't very happy with what was coming out, so I scrapped them.

I am, however, starting on a few new arrangements which are coming out nicely. One I'm having the most fun with is an arrangement of the Dragon Quest main theme for solo Viola with piano accompaniment. I'm also working on an arrangement of the gumi ship music from Kingdom...
