R4 - Move Me : How many days it took to compose Move Me Ridge Racer Type 4
Added 2024-06-21 15:53:19 +0000 UTCThe following is an excerpt from a Namco notebook from 1998
4/1 Started researching drum and bass
4/2 Researched heavy rock drums
6/15 76 days First draft (By this point, I had created a guitar library and completed research into R&B and Hiphop)
7/30 121 days Final draft with a dramatic development (Further pursuing R&B, more development and doubled the length)
8/28 Connection to DA-88 Synchronization experiment (Preparation to create multi-track data to send to external studio)
8/29-9/8 Putting the song into DA-88
9/9-9/19 Mixing at external studio
While working on the other four songs and other work, there were several retakes and corrections to the direction,
76 days for composition of the first draft, 45 days for the final draft before mixing
2 days for mixing preparation, half a day for mixing, total about 123 days. In reality, it felt much longer.
