Namek Saga is now re-uploaded with updated tracks (Episodes 19-36, Purist and Ultra Purist up to 36)

Slightly less changes here than in the Saiyan Saga, but still some shifting of tracks here and there.

Frieza Saga is up (episodes 37-54, purist and Ultra Purist up to 54). Mostly the same here with some small changes, mostly track rearrangements.

I anticipate the following 3 sagas to be a bit slower due to more non-default tracks being yamamoto.

Saga 4 - the Android saga (episode 55-67, purist and ultra purist up to 67) are up.

Bit more changes to these episodes than previous sagas, some only have one different track, others 3 or 4. I ended up using a couple of default yamamoto placements where they made sense.

Saga 5 - Cell Saga is up (episodes 68-82, purist and ultra purist up to 82)

Similar amount of changes here in this saga, episode 75 had to be rebuilt from the ground up since the original file got corrupted.

Also, there is no longer an episode 82 Ultra Purist, the sumitomo track used in the episode is now replaced with a yamamoto track.

Saga 6 - Cell Games Saga is being uploaded right now (episodes 83-98, up to 98 Ultra Purist and Purist), should be done in a few minutes

Just to note, there is no longer an 85 or 91 purist, the purist versions have been made into the main versions. 95 ultra purist has also been removed, as all sumitomo tracks have been removed.

I anticipate the Buu Saga will move along quickly as I don't anticipate doing the same treatement for them.

Saga 7 - World Tournament Saga (episodes 99-113, Purist 113, Ultra Purist 111) has been updated.

I made the purist version of 112 the main version, so there's no longer a purist rendition.

Only a couple tracks changed here and there in this run

Saga 8 - Babidi and Buu Saga (episodes 114-140, Purist and Ultra Purist up to 140) is up

Few more changes here than in the previous saga, but nothing super significant

Final update is here

Saga 9 - Evil Buu Saga (Ep 141-167, rest of the purist episodes) is done

I also have finished retweaking the alternate scores. Some have been removed for redundancy due to my changes recently, added a couple here and there.

Hoping that is the last major endeavor I have for this project so that y'all can enjoy without having to update every so often.

Also dropped a quick update to 47 Ultra Purist, changed how A Wasteland of Tension begins

Hi everyone, hope all of you are well, I had some random inspiration while rewatching bits of the project and edited episode 75 to extend creature of marvel to cover where unforeseen circumstances was. Felt like it fit better. Both regular and ultra purist have been re-uploaded Also, I re-made the daima version of episode 80 in alternates.

That's all!

hey diccolo, impressive work! it's always amazing when fans pour out their passion and materialize it through a fanwork that elevates it like you do.

quick question! am just curious but how does your scores differ from SOM's scores? from what i understand, this is a hybrid scores that tries to mix the best and most favored tracks out of each score into one! that's quite the task! but what about your other scores? purist and what not? and can they be used with SOM's version? :think: :thumbup:

One of the SoM kai projects actually uses my scores in their line up. I don't remember the name of the project specifically, but they were pretty good at keeping up to date with my adjustments when I was consistently updating.

As for the difference between my scores, here's how it goes

Regular - Primarily Yamamoto and Sumitomo with remixed Faulconer and Kikuchi
Purist - Removes the remixed faulconer and Kikuchi for a blend of Sumitomo and Yamamoto
Ultra Purist - Just Yamamoto for 1-98 (except for when Gohan goes SSJ2 which is Umnei No Hi), A few episodes in TFC which I removed my RoF tracks that were frieza themed. The rest is the same as the Ultra Purist.

If you were to say go for Ultra Purist, you'd download those episodes and then for TFC primarily download Purist and sprinkle in the few Ultra Purist episodes there.

There are also some alternates that I made which I think go nicely. In my lineup, for instance, I use an alternate for 47, 80, and 133 which has daima tracks for when Goku goes SSJ for the first time as well as when Gohan does, and then when the SSJ3 transformation happens. IMO they work really well.

If you were to use my tracks for SoM kai and it doesn't already include it, you'll need to include a 4000 milisecond delay for them in mkvtools because those use japanese footage which has an extra title slide at the beginning that the english version didn't have.

No, Z hold little interest for me to rescore because IMO Kai is the superior choice to both for the story as well as stuff like the voice acting. Not only that, but some episodes of Z have music mixed in the center track which contains dialogue so it would be difficult to accomplish.

I have no plans to do another project with Dragon Ball at this point, I feel like my work is done for now.

Hi guys, small update here.

I discovered Friedrich Habetler's version of Vegeta's Theme and had to include it in my project. I inserted it into episodes 13, 24, and 41. As a result, there is now a purist version of 24. This isn't meant to replace AO's Vegeta theme, but supplement it. I also re-uploaded 148 and replaced the AO version of Gohan Angers with Friedrich Habetler's
