Alisia Dragoon - Stage 6-1 (and "Halls of Abandonment") [Cover By DAR]

First, I have to say that the second half isn't completely mine! I decided to jam along with parts of LastUnicron's excellent remix for the second half.

Also, shoutout to ren for nominating this track back during COVER BATTLEGROUNDS III!

When I listened to this track, I just really felt in the mood for a melancholic, post-rock styled tune. Actually, I had wanted to do something more synth focused rather than using guitars. However, that's when I came across a wonderful arrangement from OCRemix (from way back in 2003!).

After hearing "Halls of Abandonment" I decided to focus on my guitars for my rendition... but once I finished the first half, I felt like it was missing something. Next thing I knew, I loaded up the remix and made up a bass part. From there I just started playing along with it and really had fun doing that.

In the end I decided to include this second half because I really became fond of this particular remix. Of course, I tried adding some things on top of it. I gave those two "wubs" (at around 3:29) a bit more snarl/growl to them. I also tried to spice up the other synths a little bit. Really enjoyed doing this second half, and I think it made things more well-rounded in the end. Starting slower and downbeat, and then later changing to become more upbeat.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this tune! ~DAR
