This is Game23 (D2 Game01 for formality's sake) with a bit of a kinky twist. I take the old ubiquitous sounds of Game23 and replace them with some better, more realistic instruments.
Deep in the shadows as the bell tolls Lurks a danger down by the fiery coals Prepare for descent, Material Defender And watch your back on this next endeavor
Once an overseer of slag determination The virus has modified its concentration Camouflaged, cloaked, or suited up naturally The Smelter looks to commit a fatality
Moderately threatening is its repulsion system At two meters size, you just might miss him It sometimes wields proximity bombs But mostly makes y'all cry for your moms
So thrust your burners and fire your lasers And load up on weapons of energy savers Dog fighting and sniping are the keys to success So you can move on to Dravis' next mess
At first, I just edited the first part of this with acoustic guitars, but went ahead and did the big breakdown at 3:31 in guitars as well. I also edited the bass from exploding during that part during recording as it sometimes does depending on different sound cards.
This one was a MAJOR pain in the ass to record in spite of the fact I only changed out a few instruments. In the first half of the song, the French horn was only audible on the left speaker, so this took some nitty-gritty editing to get it where I wanted it; I had to independently record the French horn as a solo track, reverse stereo channels with audacity, then paste it into the beginning of the song. It was freakin' ridiculous. Also increased the pizzicato strings an octave, changed out the echo drops for a marimba because I didn't like how the echo drops sounded when they go from left to right to left to right really fast, but the vibraphone does the job and maintains that "heavenly" element I was going for.
MORE changes: harps, a flute, a dulcimer and a few more changes to give it a slightly different feel. I kept the crystal sounding thingy cuz that just goes with this song, but removed all synthetic pads. Also, a surprise ending on the drum track.
