Yep that would be me haha Charlie here :) I do everything EXCEPT I have to shout out Button Masher who did the initial arrangement of Last Surprise which I expanded on by adding an intro and a solo section to the over all form, but 99% of the arranging/chord ideas are all him and then I orchestrated it for the live instruments vs his chiptune instruments (some of which I included in the mix too to honor his vibe)@@TheSteelDialga

Which is the theme song for Kirby and the Forgotten Land

The fact that these tunes sound so great in big band style is a testament not only to the arranging talent and skill of Charlie (and others) and the performers (such tight playing!) but also the original composers - these tunes have great bones so covers by smaller bands like The Consouls J-Music Ensemble and insaneintherain (one-man band!) in varying styles also sound great and I agree that sometimes the covers can eclipse the originals.

I just think that's neat, it puts the Portal stuff in a uniquely prestigious position among all of the licenses in Lego Dimensions.
