I thought the boss music could be longer so I did a very quick-and-dirty sketch of some ideas to lengthen it out. I wouldn't consider this a finished product (certainly wouldn't replace the original music with it just yet) but figure it's at a point I can show it
I added a couple phrases from Saturn The Bringer of Old Age because at this point adapting Holst to Sonic music is extremely funny to me
I was never fully satisfied with this (voice choices were particularly hasty -- that was always intended as something of a rough draft, mostly to get the ideas in my head down into the tracker while they were fresh in my head), and decided to MIDIfy it. I'd like to set this all up in a DAW sooner rather than later so I can be a bit more flexible with voices and panning. This is still a bit quick-and-dirty but a little less quick and hopefully a little less dirty.
Just to be clear how stupid this arrangement is: the original theme from the game doesn't actually kick in until 1:20 into the song.
If you'd like to do something with this please feel free (but please credit me / link to this when you do!).
And of course it never hurts to feed the attention monster
