Bundeslang Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) The People's Remix Competition 271 PRCv11-11 Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition! Last round was a very qualitive round. Five songs were submitted from four remixers. Gercr did a great job, got a first place vote, but still ended with the wooden spoon. Trism was not far off, Evktalo tried to beat OneUp as well, but OneUp claimed the win. I've chosen a source from the GBA game Mother 3, Porkey Bots theme. I'm not familiar with the game, but this is a great tune which give me a kind of ABBA feeling. I'm excited to see what you can do with it! http://mother3midi.webege.com/Mother%203%20-%20Pokey%20Bots.mid Source: Mother 3 (GBA) - Porky Bots Theme MIDI or check the Vgmusic link in the quote above Wikipedia ThaSauce link: Click here to submit To submit a song at the compo page a ThaSauce account is required.

I recommend Soundcloud, don't forget to allow downloads to enable me to upload the song at ThaSauce. My signature is still death (I'm not sure if it ever will get back), but since you can still click on it to get to the ThaSauce page, I'll leave it intact. To register and submit, do the following. Click the Thasauce link mentioned above Click the 'You are not logged in' button in the upper right. Click on 'register' (at the bottom) Read the terms and click 'I agree to these terms'. If you don't agree with them, upload the song somewhere else and post a download link as mentioned above (by doing that, you allow me to upload the song at ThaSauce.

Rexy Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Mother 3! A bit of a throwback to the last source I sent to the compo, some good 6 years ago or so. I'm too busy to make a move into this myself, but it'll be pretty awesome though if at least one of the entries may reference to the DCMC's big damn heroes moment in that battle with those bots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troyificus Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Nice source, I'm hoping to have my laptop back in time to do something for this round! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I still can't activate my ThaSauce account. I sign in and get the message that my account hasn't been activated. I didn't get the activation email (checked my spam), despite having had the email resent a few times. I use Gmail, not sure if that makes a difference.

gercr Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Since for some reason I wasnt able to make the song work in "thesauce" I uplodaded to Soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/gercr/funkey-bots Sorry for the inconvenience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundeslang Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) Gercr, I think the problem is not the size, but the fact that it is a .WAV file instead of a .MP3 file. In MP3, the size is only 2.71 MB. I will upload the song to ThaSauce. If you're looking for a WAV to MP3 converter, I suggest to use DBPowerAmp. EDIT: Song is uploaded. Thanks!

gercr Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 ahhh its my fault, I had read that the song has to be in .wav and 44.1 -16 bits. dont know where. sooo it has to be in mp3 ? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bundeslang Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Probably the voting stage will be shorter than usual, meaning that there are only 26 hours to vote instead of the usual two days. More details follow after the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Here's my entry: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ovx6ilx7bcpd47r/Cash%20-%20Porky%20Bits%20%28Mother%203%29.mp3. Couldn't get Tha Sauce to work. Also, I'm not sure if I followed the correct naming conventions for my track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yami Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Too bad, PRC and MnP fell on the same day, it's possible that's why there are nearly no entries (at least it was a reason for me only doing one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't get Tha Sauce to work. Also, I'm not sure if I followed the correct naming conventions for my track. I can't open the file and ThaSauce does not recognize it as an MP3. Can you play the song yourself? Could you try to reupload it to that Dropbox page, maybe that works. I've extended the deadline a bit. Voting starts as soon as possible, I want to give Cash some time to get the song uploaded correctly (on ThaSauce, or somewhere else).

I try to avoid it, PRC runs a similar schedule in which the deadline is always at Monday (once in two weeks). Since in the last couple of rounds several extensions are needed for both PRC and MnP, they overlap sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
