bassoon? It's a good day for the double-reeds as The Talented Mr. Cox utilizes both in the intro to his sweeping symphonic orchestration of Koichi Sugiyama's most popular work, Dragon Warrior. This is lyrical stuff, reminding me of some of the better portions of the Dark Crystal soundtrack (I don't care if it starred muppets, that movie rocked and had a totally underrated score - check it out if you haven't already). With pizzicato violins and bass used at different times, bells, ensemble strings, harp, the afforementioned winds in the more minimalistic introduction, and bombastic unison low brass (viva la low brass! Euphoniums, trombones, and tubas of the world unite!), Russell again makes no sacrifices in terms of instrumentation or sound quality. I've mentioned before how lucky we are to have him around, as he excels at what he does. At 2'59", if you're not into the work, being carried away by the momentous musical push, you simply might not dig orchestral work, as it's moments like this - well built to and singularly breathtaking - that soundtrack composers shoot for when aspiring to create the feel of a vast, stretching landscape filled with opportunity and danger or the fulfillment of a decade-long quest of some earth-saving significance - you get the picture. Though I can't cite any particular reason as to why - maybe it's the discrete construction or especially narrative, transporting style - I did like this a bit more than some of Russell's other pieces, which were already on my short list of impressive orchestral arrangements. Highly recommended.</p></div> <p> ― <a href="/artist/4279/djpretzel">djpretzel</a></p> </div></div></div> <div style="clear:left;"><div class="widget widget-neutral"> <div class="widget-header"><h2 class="widget-title"> <i class="fa fa-comments-o fa-lg fa-fw"></i>Discussion</h2></div> <div class="widget-content widget-content-shading-light widget-content-padding"><div class="widget-content-inner"> Latest 15 comments/reviews; view the <a href="/community/topic/767-ocr00776-dragon-warrior-journey-of-solitude/">complete thread</a> or <a href="/community/topic/767-ocr00776-dragon-warrior-journey-of-solitude/#replyForm">post your own</a>.<hr> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/31803-austnerevar/"><img class="img-circle" src="/community/uploads/profile/photo-thumb-31803.jpg" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/31803-austnerevar/" style="font-weight:bold;">AustNerevar</a><br> on 2015-07-21 20:23:18<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <p> It's shame that there aren't any more Dragon Quest mixes than this.

After a quick search, I got to listen to quite a few - but nothing approached <em>this.</em> What an emotional, original feel that does both justice to one of the most distinctly simple-yet-deep melodies a game has ever had. The best of what you're looking for.

Very epic feeling overall, and it fits the source music perfectly. The transition 3/4 the way through was a bit weak, I think a little bit of time to let the phrase simmer before hitting the coda would have been better, but still, as is, some nice work from the esteemed Mr. Cox. </p></div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/20028-messagesfromearth/"><img class="img-circle" src="/community/uploads/monthly_2024_02/LinkProfile02.thumb.jpg.2e4333ce73b95ece74355b3cc6c6aad8.jpg" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/20028-messagesfromearth/" style="font-weight:bold;">MessagesFromEarth</a><br> on 2008-12-08 11:14:45<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <p> Dragon Warrior was my first RPG. I was young when I played it, somewhere between 6 and 8, but I remember that even then what drew me intot he game was the overworld theme. Its haunted by lonliness, and while the theme of the quest is also present, I've always thought that it took a back seat to the theme of the solitary hero. This mix is nicely done by adding the epix feel to the piece, and it is interesting to see the two themes that I pictured in the original reversed. Until about 1:05 the mix stays very true to the original tune, but then takes on the epic quality after that. I'm not saying that a song can't be both epic and lonely, but I think that one comes out more than the other. </p> <p> Great job with this <img src="/community/uploads/emoticons/default_icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)"> </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/20014-lucentas/"><img class="img-circle" src="/images/template/community-default-profile.png" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/20014-lucentas/" style="font-weight:bold;">Lucentas</a><br> on 2008-12-06 21:43:14<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <p> The source has been one of my favorite video game tunes since I first heard it in Dragon Warrior Monsters, and I always wanted to hear an epic symphonic rendition of it. </p> <p> With this arrangement, my wish has been granted. I don't think you could get better than this if you tried, it captures the essence of the source perfectly and is what it should have sounded like if the NES had somehow had CD-quality sound. Also, like djpretzel, I'm definitely getting the Trevor Jones/Dark Crystal vibe from this one, it is very similar to the work he did for that movie's score, which is just another reason for me to like this ReMix. </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/13862-dragonavenger/"><img class="img-circle" src="/community/uploads/profile/photo-thumb-13862.gif" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/13862-dragonavenger/" style="font-weight:bold;">DragonAvenger</a><br> on 2008-08-24 20:31:20<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"><p> The source is my favorite DW theme by far, and this arrangement is absolutely fantastic.

This could have been right off the soundtrack of some Lord of the Rings-style movie. I especially like the effective use of key changes, that's something that's overlooked too often... they make the song seem longer - in a good way. Every time there's a key change here, it separates the sections. It's almost like using paragraphs or chapters when writing... imagine if people wrote without those? </p></div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/3014-nobbynob-littlun/"><img class="img-circle" src="/community/uploads/monthly_2015_12/photo.jpg.ad5eaeb1a87691d546980feff615b62d.thumb.jpg.86b6280b89c96409d500897f3ed8cb5a.jpg" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/3014-nobbynob-littlun/" style="font-weight:bold;">Nobbynob Littlun</a><br> on 2003-03-30 14:13:56<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <p> Journey of Solitude - excellent descriptive title. I liked "On That Day..." better, but personally. This would be a better song in most ways. Can't really talk technically, as I don't know what sounds to match with what instruments (well, I can recognize clarinets and bass clarinets in a song, but that don't help). </p> <p> Dragon Warrior was my first RPG, and I remember playing it when I was three years old. All I can remember is some castle I was walking around, something about a... Rainbow Bridge? Um, I remember the boss, don't remember his name, was kinda wimpy looking but tough anyway... oh, and I remember my older brother (9 at the time) asking me how I beat the game at such a low level. Hrm. Since then I've preferred different styles of RPGs, but it was my first. This song would be really awesome as the field music in Ocarina of Time, as Link also very much walks the world alone. </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/1157-blak_omen/"><img class="img-circle" src="/images/template/community-default-profile.png" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/1157-blak_omen/" style="font-weight:bold;">Blak_Omen</a><br> on 2003-01-22 20:56:22<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <p> Beethoven was partially deaf. </p> <p> <span style="font-size:10px;">(I'm just trying hard not to look so stupid....</span> <img src="/community/uploads/emoticons/default_icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:"> <span style="font-size:10px;">)</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="media mt-3"> <a class="pr-3" href="/community/user/574-russell-cox/"><img class="img-circle" src="/images/template/community-default-profile.png" alt="avatar" style="width:34px;"></a><div class="media-body"> <a href="/community/user/574-russell-cox/" style="font-weight:bold;">Russell Cox</a><br> on 2003-01-22 20:52:29<hr> <div style="overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:20px;"> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="Blak_Omen" data-cite="Blak_Omen"> <div> Okay there are three choices here: <p> 1.
