I meant to make a thread here, but forgot. I posted this on the 1up forums last week. I had some extra time, so I made an arrangement of the 1up Show theme and added it to the orchestra session I was doing just for fun. It's not something that could really work in the context of the show, as it gets a bit dramatic, but it might make some of you chuckle nonetheless.

Theman2k · (10-21-2008, 12:26 AM)

lol, nice !
good job :)
maybe 1up will use it once..

MaritalWheat · (10-21-2008, 12:26 AM)

Saw this over at 1UP, really neat stuff. Did they end up saying they wold use it or no?

miyamotofreak · (10-21-2008, 12:26 AM)

Awesome. A little too much at spots (beginning and end) but still awesome.

fallout · (10-21-2008, 12:27 AM)

This should have been used for Jeff Green's departure. :(

Excellent work, though.

Matt emailed me and said if he found a place for it, he'd use it. I wished him much luck, haha!

rabhw · (10-21-2008, 12:29 AM)

This....is great.

tyler · (10-21-2008, 12:32 AM)

Can we get the old 1Up show theme as an mp3 anywhere?

SPEA · (10-21-2008, 12:33 AM)

Nice work! Good stuff.

The Faceless Master · (10-21-2008, 12:33 AM)

Chris, did you hear the rap track Cam'Ron did to the "Oh No" jingle?

comments? thoughts?

Variable · (10-21-2008, 12:44 AM)

This would have been great departure music for Jeff and Shawn! Keep this tune in mind for any further departures (I hope not anytime soon).

rollingstart · (10-21-2008, 12:44 AM)

That's awesome.

Fantastical · (10-21-2008, 12:48 AM)

Wow! Really nice job. :D

Y2Kev · (10-21-2008, 12:48 AM)

That's a really nice arrangement, lol.

angelfly · (10-21-2008, 12:49 AM)

Nice work!

I could see this being used on Shane's last episode before leaving to work at SCEA.

I AM JOHN! · (10-21-2008, 12:51 AM)

Maybe it's just me, but my idea of an orchestrated version of the 1UP Show theme would be a little more jaunty, like something out of a Danny Elfman soundtrack (but without the suck).

Totally awesome, though. It's a very nice arrangement!

Flunkie · (10-21-2008, 12:51 AM)

Wow, that's freaking awesome. Excellent job.

SCEA don't hire insane people. No offense Shane.

You see what I see!

And he would ride off into a sunset on a steed just as wild and untamed as he!

lybertyboy · (10-21-2008, 12:53 AM)

I said it before Chris, but this is seriously awesome.

That's fantastic! :D

The S-Word · (10-21-2008, 12:54 AM)

This should be used for an epic comeback reunion show for the final episode of 1up yours featuring Shane, Garnett, Mark, John, Luke, Brian, Shawn Elliott, Crispin, Dan Hsu and Jeff Green, lasting for 4 hours.

Seiken · (10-21-2008, 12:55 AM)

That was... incredible ;_;

Aladuf · (10-21-2008, 12:55 AM)

That was seriously fucking awesome, great job.

Slavik81 · (10-21-2008, 12:55 AM)

wow...

Sega1991 · (10-21-2008, 12:56 AM)

Oooo, cool.

I also like the instrumental guitar version done by the Metroid Metal guys.

MarkusRJR · (10-21-2008, 01:04 AM)

Amazing Work! :D

Contrary to popular rumors, I had nothing to do with the "Oh No You Didn't" song for the Mercs2 ad.

Hey don't knock Elfman! Anyways, the orchestra I was working with is used to more traditional stuff. I'd love to do a an orchestral/jazz version with a full rhythm section one day. Never know if the opportunity will arise.

oh no, you didn't?

Jimmy Stav · (10-21-2008, 01:19 AM)

Dude, that was fantastic. I was expecting so much less.

Francinium · (10-21-2008, 01:35 AM)

Haha that's pretty awesome

Gbeav · 01:41 AM

Cooter isn't going to like it, no banjo.

Nintaiyo · (10-21-2008, 03:16 AM)

That was really really good. I was actually expecting the tempo and energy to pick up during the "1up 1up 1up..." part, but it was still great.

purg3 · (10-21-2008, 03:19 AM)

wow, that was awesome. Nice job

Truespeed · 03:22 AM

Surprised it hasn't been said - but it needs more cowbell.

Seriously, mighty fine work.

JimtotheHum · (10-21-2008, 03:22 AM)

That was excellent!!

Really fucking good!!!

Nintaiyo · (10-21-2008, 03:23 AM)

I guess this is an appropriate thread to ask...Does anyone have mp3 files of the music that they use during the 1up show? I'm talking about the background music during the segments.

MThanded · (10-21-2008, 03:24 AM)

wow. That sounded great.

SCEJ it is then.

gketter · (10-21-2008, 03:24 AM)

wow that was cool

it could be the official "1up person leaves" version used when people ride off into the sunset

EviLore · (10-21-2008, 03:25 AM)

Impressive.

It's the ideal closing tune for the show. And if the show doesn't use it, the podcast should. Epic work.

MThanded · (10-21-2008, 03:28 AM)

Chris seriously this is amazing. I have to say it again. It may get me to pick my trumpet back up after a nearly 9 year hiatus.

Recoil · (10-21-2008, 03:38 AM)

Fuuuuck, I'd *really* like to hear how you made this. It's not all digital instruments, is it?

Fixed2BeBroken · (10-21-2008, 03:38 AM)

wow, this is amazingly good...what the hell

chris, are you a composer or something?

no way, this has to be done by a real orchestra
