This song has been an excellent learning experience for me. I started working on this in order to learn more about FL Studio 8 and all of the tools that are available in it. After spending some time playing with it (and trying to remember what I learned from the panel last year at Otakon) this remix was born. My inspiration came from my younger brother who was talking to me about a Secret of Mana movie he'd like to produce with me later this summer. He described the opening scene as follows, which became the inspiration for this arrangement. The screen opens with a blank shot of an open field, where you can see a small village in the far background (potos). Then when the music starts there are 3 people who run in front of the camera, but you only see their feet. The next few shots are in time with the music, showing more feet running or backs turned away (noticing that one of them has orange hair, one is short with a hat, and another is fat with blonde hair). The intro credits roll as shots of the boys are off exploring and as the song ends, there is a pan around a lake, that slowy focuses on a sword in a stone in the middle where the title Secret of Mana appears.

I hope you all enjoy this mix as much as I have, and can all see what I saw as I was writing it.

Hope to hear back soon,

Mike (DJ Mana)
