What happens when a composer is bored and has a song stuck in his head?

Why, cover it, of course.

I MAED A C0V3R W1TH Z0MBIES IN1T!!1

...Like many things in show business, not all things go according to plan. Shimmerglee (the company producing the musical) was told by the studio funding them to go back to the drawing board and come back to them with another film idea, so in the meantime I wait.

However, being forced into one class this final semester before I get my AA degree in Business Administration (which I plan to go for a Bachelors), I've gotten a full-time job at a 7-11 to help get my finances in better order than they're in (I've been unemployed since September of last year, and it seriously has taken me THIS long to finally find a job....even though I got the job through a local acquaintance that works there).

So in all bad things or inconvenient things, some good has come of all the craziness that January has brought our way ("our" referring to my family and I, who've been through some rather crappy things this past month).

...Only this one is a commercial film. I cannot disclose much information on the movie, so I will only say what I have said on my Facebook: this film will be a musical. Additionally, for the first time ever, my music will be performed by a live orchestra.

So yes, this has me quite excited. I had a meeting online with the director, and we have started on the songwriting process.

The entire soundtrack is available for download here:

The%20Hero%20of%20Time%20Official%20So undtrack.zip

But the piece are individually available here on my Newgrounds as well! Check them out!

I understand that some numbers were skipped, because the pieces were already on here previously as part of the Montage releases, but on each soundtrack piece's information, I've included the full tracklist for you to organize the pieces yourself for your collection.

I'm going to be offline for 2 days while I drive back home from Indiana (was visiting my brother's family for a week), so have fun and enjoy the new Hero of Time tracks (almost done uploading the whole soundtrack).

Happy New Year 2010!

For anyone who noticed that I'm uploading the HoT soundtrack here, I'm just letting you know that pieces 5 and 7 (6 is "Leaving the Forest" so it's already up) will be up probably the 26th (day after Christmas), because on Christmas Day I'll be driving up to Indiana to visit my brother's family for the holidays, so that's one day of driving.

Now, if I get up early enough, I can probably upload the pieces before I leave, so we'll see.

In the meantime, have a safe and merry Christmas. If you don't want to call it that, that's cool. I've always wished people a Merry Christmas, and I probably always will. =)

Be safe.

EDIT (12/24/09): If you don't want to wait for me to release all pieces here, you can download the entire soundtrack from the Hero of Time website server @:

....There is no word to describe just how extraordinary the Avatar movie experience is.

The film is a gem; a MUST SEE.

Okay, I'm done. =p

Have a Merry Christmas guys! I luffles you all! =)

Watch it now on Dailymotion.com! Enjoy the film! Enjoy the music! =D

"The Hero of Time" on Dailymotion

I hadn't uploaded this before because I thought I already had, but after looking through my list, I apparently didn't.

So take a listen to "The Rain (Instrumental)". And read the Author Comments to learn about the song's origin.

Enjoy! =)

On another note, there is a high probability that I will be scoring a musical. I'll explain more if I am indeed getting the job.

Yeah, it's been a long time coming. Maybe it's just the lack of a real social life, but I decided to join Gaia Online.

Anyone who wishes to add me, my alias on there is Aldenorai (same as my Blood Elf Priest in WoW, and my Xbox Live Gamertag).

Also, don't miss the worldwide online release of "The Hero of Time" on Dailymotion.com on Dec. 14th. And a week later (December 21st), they will release TS files for fans to burn their own DVDs of the film.
