Mountain King

Just finished a game called "Mountain King" -- the game designer wanted to use Edvard Grieg's "In The Hall of the Mountain King" from "Peer Gynt Suite no.1". It was on an extremely tight deadline -- about a week. I didn't have much time to mull things over, and there was no budget to hire live players, so in the midst of meetings and distractions, I whipped up this "synthestrated" version of the tune in two days... it would've been nice to have more time to find better samples and patches, and to tweak the MIDI data a little more, but in this instance, it should do the trick. You can listen to an mp3 sample and see what you think...

Its not the work that's exhausting, its the compromises.
