Nautilus Knoweth - FFXIV

(Featuring everyones favorite singing cat)

I'll be sad when we have to leave Old Sharlayan for the new town.

Voices from beyond compel me to create and thus this was made.

The first Meowsynth thing I made was with Moon River and I even edited a stupid video to go along with it. This one just came from me being in the shower and going "what if that one part is sung by a chorus of cats using Meowsynth).

The whole song took way longer than I thought it would take because I'm stubborn and that I wanted it to use the fancy instruments my computer can barely handle so I had to trouble shoot that. I didn't even end up using that for all the instruments because I wanted very specific sounds from the windows midi instruments and bongos.

I don't play guitar but I understand how the instrument works. I just don't have a frame of reference as to your common chord shapes/voicings so I apologize if something requires 6 fingers or whatever hahaha.

Arranging the damn thing was hard too because while specifically using the Old Sharlayan night theme, it's still Flow so I had to fight with myself as to which version to actually base the arrangement on. Those chord changes are so weird especially since I was doing it by ear but I think I got most of it right with a bit of my own spice.

There's alot more I would like to add but I think I've really hit my limit with my mixing knowledge because I have no clue how to make anything sound good together anymore.

During the final part of the song in the original, there were very slight like bright plucky synths doing an arppegiated line under everything and I didn't notice it untill I was reviewing the song. I wanted to do something simillar or atleast call back to it with something but I couldn't quite make it sound right. I wanted to sneak in some motifs from other Endwalker/FFXIV songs but unfortunately I had to get rid of it.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this little thing I made and procrastinated on posting because I was busy beating Baldur's Gate 3.

MUSIC N FFXIV MAKE ME SO HAPPY

FFXIV song meme

Aurora Nordlicht 🦋

5 tracks from the FFXIV OST that suit my character best (in no particular order.)

1. The Nautilus Knoweth

2. Neath Dark Waters

3. Miracle Works

4. To The Edge

5. With Hearts Aligned

The first one is because she's originally from Sharlayan, the second and third represent her journey.

To the Edge represents her hesitation, indecision, despair and her connection to the ancients since she, by the end of ShB, remembers her past life which "brings her to the edge" but also gives her the push she needs to carry on later.

And the last one represents her resolve and hope.

Thank you so much for the tag @firelightmuse 💙💙 this was super fun and it gave me a great opportunity to work on her reworked story!

Tagging: Anyone who wants to do it!
