Recording: Chrono Trigger - The Day the World Revived (Game Over Theme)

• Login or register to post comments

The Day the World Revived, from Chrono Trigger, was the game over theme to one heck of a game that I've yet to play and look forward to very much when I get my hands on a copy.

For those that want to play this song, I tuned down a half step from standard tuning (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb). Then just learned it by ear from there. The octaves aren't 100% accurate to what's in the original song, but for playing it on one guitar, this will do just fine. And no, I am not a classical guitarist and I have no nails to produce a finer tone sadly... I just got to college and am taking piano lessons for my music (vocal performance) major, so no long nails for guitar for quite some time. And yes, there will be vocal songs/arrangements soon as well. Still trying to nail down the best place to record other than this practice room, so soon.

If you can't tell, I really like 3 things. Game over themes, the Chrono series, and Yasunori Mitsuda. I do guarantee it will be mixed up more in the months to come as far as composers and games though, as much as I'd like to cover the entire Chrono series ^^ I hope you all enjoy this beautiful melody.
