Quest 7 features a synthesizer built upon intervals of a perfect 4th. "Boss Bass" is the stereotypical music that is featured near the end of level when a boss battle has been initiated. "Unknown Decade" features a harp, which is reminiscent of classic medieval and sci-fi fantasy video games.&nbsp;</span><span style="color:rgb(98, 98, 98)">Another surprise on the album, which is a classical crossover; Domenico Scarlatti's Sonata in D Major K480 with an 8-Bit flavor. Give it a listen.</span><br /><br /><span style="color:rgb(98, 98, 98)">The piece "Gamelandia" has a digital organ as the most prominent instrument, but this piece is somewhat based on the jazzy/bluesy "Hall of Hieroglyphs" from Wario Land 4. "Underground Waves" has a 90s slow hip-hop feel. The title of "Too Much Logistics" is exactly the way it sounds, too many roadblocks and certification to be allowed to work nowadays, especially for things like teaching music, tech, and graphic design. Finally, the last piece, "Why Don't You Try Again?" is based on the "continue?" screens seen in many old video games. Once all your chances/lives were gone, you had the opportunity to try again to complete the level.

The version for easy and intermediate pianists reduces the difficulty, but preserves&nbsp;key characteristics to maintain the style and the composer's intentions.<br /><br />Your choice of music retailer is on the left, and can be purchased either from Sheet Music Plus.com or Sheet Music Direct.com<br /></div>   					 				</td>			</tr> 		</tbody> 	</table> </div></div></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
