[RESTORATION] Rock Star - Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

non-youtube crushed download: drive.google.c...
hoorayyyyyy we hit 8,000 subs everybody! I'm taking some extra time to make sure the special video is as perfect as can be, so here's something to tide you over until then
I bet you'll be as surprised as I am that the instrument that's used in a lot of the desert tracks is actually... a bagpipe?! yep, that's what the source is in Roland's SR-JV80-05 World pack, so you all get a nice helping of two extra samples in this track. other than that you won't hear much difference except for the brass (pulled from the lovely LDCP06) and the tambourine (which is SO high quality now it's insane). also since the bass is FM-based, I wanted to try to remake it myself, but I barely have any FM synthesis experience so that idea was off the table immediately :/
enjoy, and get ready for next week!

oh wow the bagpipes sound awesome, crazy how much compression messes with the sound

[@shalpp]

That might be a case of a slightly different asdr envelope being used

This sounds similar to the Kirby Air Ride's version and I love it! I always wanted more restorations like that for the rest of the soundtrack.

Break it down, Kirby

You noted in the description that you couldn't find an invite link for the instrument sources discord, I just wanted to point out that the VGM sound sources spreadsheet you linked has an invite link to said discord in row 36! (EXCELLENT restoration, by the way. This sounds absolutely pristine)

This is a great restoration!

[@ClaytonFromMidgar]

Request: Kirby Super Star Ultra BGM that isn't in Kirby Super Star using Kirby Super Star and Alcahest Soundfont

[@dandelarosa64]

If I made a game soundtrack that paid tribute to early 00s vgmusic MIDIs I would want it to sound exactly like this

[@4dxl]

dope

[@MicaelAlighieri]

The instruments are cleaner, good restoration!

[@plushifoxed]
