"Against my better judgment, I'm about to enter Area 51."
A rearrangement of the music of the first part of the fourth level of the N64 game Perfect Dark. This arrangement was created in LMMS.

Original game composers:
Grant Kirkhope
Graeme Norgate
David Clynick

I tried for an orchestral feel since the original version prominently used snare drums and brass sounds. While not fully orchestral, the Sonatina instrument set has higher quality snare drum sounds which may have been recorded from real instruments. I could've played it safe and called on that GoldenEye soundfont for snares, but I'm trying to modernize the sound somewhat while respecting the original compositions.

Some samples were extracted from the game using N64 Sound Tool. The original midi files were used as a base; they were extracted using N64 Midi Tool.

Soundfonts and plugins used:
Arachno SoundFont (Vibraphone)
Roland JV-1010 (Strings)
GoldenEye 007 soundfont (Synth bass, synths)
just t4 (Glockenspiel, french horns)
Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra (Percussion, cymbal)
Korg AG-10 (Choir with flanger and chorus)
ColomboGMGS2 (Piano, percussion - Infiltration X)
