Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History

[Kanjika]

Both have a slight quirk at the beginning, I'm trying to figure out exactly whats causing them, but they are there for now.

The render thingy is probably set to "Wrap remainder". This is useful for looping and stuff. Set it to "Leave Remainder", or cut if you want.

[Rayza]

Yeh that sounds right.. Wrap is good for making seamless loops but you wouldnt want it on your full song.. You'll hear the reverb tail right at the start. Which is, I think, your problem..

I'm challenged for Ice Cap? Man I better get something done soon then, though this is pretty good.

[The Joker]

You know what, I accidently had it on wrap. I don;t remember putting it there, but it was. So thanks you guys.

Oh & a quick question. If any of you have listened to my mixes, could you help me out. The help being, can you tell what songs they are? Are they too liberal? Basically, do they sound different enough, while still sounding similiar to the source material? Any help would be appreciated.

[Kanjika]

Finished wip!

Theres still a shitload of things i want to fix, but anyway

There we go... :)

Im actually updating the song right now, and fixing problems and things.

[RoeTaKa]

Ok I only meant to start a wip, but I basically finished my song.

S3&K - Survive the Cold = http://www.angelfire.com/zine2/roetaka/index.html

So here's my Ice Cap done in a very Hybrid style. Very different to other Ice Cap mixes. Enjoy.

[Vilecat]

Pretty interesting WIPs guys :D I'm impressed already.

The ending of your song is a tad weird Kanjika, might be the sudden, ethnic feel from the percussions 10sec before the end. Other than that, i'm still wow-ed like last time.

RoeTaKa, that new view of Ice Cap surprized me. I've listened the song on my speakers, and the drums are on the verge to mute everything else (when i walk away from the comp a bit, all i hear is the drum beat and the synth that plays a part of the melody sometimes).

Sadorf, each time i hear a remix from you, it gets better and better. It's the usual techno-ish remix of Ice Cap, but it's different from any of the other mixes made on the song. Gotta finish it *nod*


I got one question for sithlord, did you get any news from MusicallyInspired? Or he won't give the project a try? I'm thinking he hasn't come online yet, but i wanna know. Imho it's sad if he doesn't, his remix is pretty kickass 8)

I'm guessing you're gonna run out of bandwith in about 2 seconds so I hosted it here as well.

http://www.rayza.net/misc/S3_K_-_Survive_the_Cold.mp3

I also noticed a few problems.

Around 1:35, that transition is pretty sloppy. Sounds like the timing ain't right. Maybe try to smooth that up a bit.

2:08, lots of clipping on that big hit there. All distorted and ugly. Try fitting the volume levels in a little better there.. Near the end of the song when more instruments come in, there is more unwanted distortion. Most likely due to the main level of the tune being too loud, turn your main level down or some individual parts down. Overall its too much volume.

Otherwise its nice and original. Good stuff so far..

[RoeTaKa]

Thanks, and thanks for hosting it too :). I've had barely any sleep over two days so my ears are incredibly worn out. I'll work on this a bit more tomorrow or something.

[Kanjika]

i was messing around and i made that pattern and put it on the end...its all orchestral percussion though, and i never meant to get an ethnic feel, just groove 8)

Btw, ill have a newer WIP up soon guys. This ones more interesting.

[Sora]

well, shit. that's just great stuff. :)
fix the ending and boom you're done, Kanjika :wink:

[Kanjika]

well, shit. that's just great stuff. :)
fix the ending and boom you're done, Kanjika :wink:

Lol i wish it was only that much. The piece is still too repetitive but im fixing that!

And damn, FL just froze :?

[Holy Warrior Azar]

Although Kanjika already has me beat, I'm still pushing to get my wip finished, even if it's only 30 seconds. :(

[Hadyn]

I've already told Kanjika how much I love his piece so far, but I just wanted to add something... You know that pattern on the end? I think it rocks :D

Maybe you could have a break section in the middle of the song with that percussion and all?

~Hadyn

yeah it was really nice. it just wasn't right for the song. But the more I think about it, the more he could put it in there. :wink:

[Kanjika]

UPDATE!

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3789

Still havent moved the percussion groove...thats next.

Enjoy! 8)

[Antipode]

Very good work. Surprisingly well arranged and relatively low amount of time to complete. Even now, it really does the original justice. I only have one recommendation - to switch things up a little, it may be a good idea to use a different lead instrument at some point, possibly for the "interlude" near the end. I'll be interested to see how this turns out.

[Sora]

I know it's very orchastrated to have such a long intro... but it just got annoying after a while. It went from comming it really slow to downright fast.
other than that it's great as usual. :D

edit: further listening showed that around 2:27 when it goes back to the original melody, it's sort of an odd transition back to what we heard already. Hope you can understand my bad explaining... :wink:

[Upthorn]

It's very good, but the parts that sound like FF battle themes just seem like the completely wrong mood for the level to me.

Also, I hope the applause isn't on the final version.

Also, I hope the applause isn't on the final version. :lol: it wont be

[Hadyn]

Kanjika - I love the latest version!

The section at 2:04 is really cool, and I love the burst of energy at 2:15... it's really a beautiful thing ^^

The repetitive issue is completely gone now, so yeah. Very good work :)

There's one other thing I meant to say earlier that i'll say now though. This is just a stupid little thing, and i'm probably the only one who thinks it, but yeah... the end sounds like it needs an extra "Da-Da!".

Cause right now the final bar is just "Da-Da!" and then silence... It feels like there should be a second double-stab on the second and a half beat. Hell, you could have a third stabby thing on the 4th beat, it'd be like a triplet thingo.

Yeah, i'm not good with musical terminology :P

Ohwell, keep up the awesome work!

[AMT]

I think this topic needs to be bumped...

[Kanjika]

It was lost in the EA hype :lol:

[Terial]

EDIT

just trying to keep the mention of a third party software manufacturer out of this thread so it wont be locked or put Mr.Lloyd in anymore legal matters.

[Holy Warrior Azar]

Xerol, sorry but I'm not ready yet.

I'm probably going to get dropped at this point, finale gives me too much trouble and my arrangement I dont think is solid enough at this point to throw it out there with these other outstanding ones. At this point I dont know if I will make the deadline but I will still try, and if I dont make it, that shouldnt be a problem because there are several other great mixes over mine for the same song. :wink:

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Hello people. I'm not dead, i have just been very busy. I'll be back though after my Spring break is over(Monday). RoeTaka,Kanjika, and Sadorf.. all VERY goo remix. I like uhuhuh. Well, goodjob everyone who is still in this. Later.

[Vilecat]

Kanjika, your song still makes me go wow each time i hear it. It's so energic, i can see Sonic run the last "straight" line to the final boss with determination like he never had before.

I love the new parts, it's really refreshing. With the flute part around 2:04, i was expecting a 2nd flute to accompany the 1st before the violin would come in (it'd make the part slightly longer though). For the percussions at the end : ever thought of going crazy on timpani? :roll:

I can't think of anything else to say about the song, it's put me in a state of wow-ness tat keeps me from hearing if anything could need to be fixed or so.

Keep up the good work guys! I can't wait to hear more of the project.

[Kanjika]

It looks like theres quite a few people who sith needs to hear from, but hopefully most people will meet the deadline. WHat happens if we have tracks with no WIPs though? I'd be happy to help out since im only doing one song. I also probably wont do much updating to sky sanctuary until after the deadline. Its already good enough right now (IMO).

[Mr. Fox]

Updated!

Added Some (very little) variation on the bass / better ending / better EQ on the beguining...................
OH, and those vocals too... They are gone =]

Same link as before:

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3802


I hope it enters the ReMix project...

If most of the people start meeting the deadline, we can think about doing parteships to cover some songs...

[Nicole Adams]

So you are challenging Gman and me, Red Tailed Fox? You got some pretty cool stuff goin' on in your mix. Though, the brass sounds fake and lifeless to me, but your percussion is sweet.

[Hadyn]

"Carnival Night - claimed by DCT"

If DCT can't do it, I might give that one a shot...

[Holy Warrior Azar]

SITH!!!!

I think I'm going to drop out. My midi is not only incomplete but sounds entirley too void for me to even call a satisfactory wip. I'm not going to waste your time, Xerol's time, or the listeners time with this piece of crap midi I cant even finish. For the sake of the project, I drop. Sorry. :(

[Sir_NutS]

boooo

[nesper]

FYI...i'm almost done with the comp menu and i have a little something for sky sanctuary done. i've decided to forget about lava reef and let whoever just have it. i'll post my shit in a couple days. peace. :)

[Sora]

EDIT:
what needs to be fixed:
-fade out is sorta at an odd note.
-the string synth at 1:33 will be removed

what's been added:
-more bass
-got rid of the intro
-added different drums
-added some other crap that I can't remember

and to Hippy Kanjika: are you talking about from 0:50 to 0:53 or the whole thing after 0:50?
cause if it's from 0:50 to 0:53, then it's just because they're's no kick. which comes in at 0:54.
that can be fixed. But if it's the whole thing than I can't think of anything else to add.

[Sora]

oh yeah, Sith, I belive Upthorn is also going for Sky Sanctuary too.

[Mr. Fox]

Ooops sorry... Dind't mean to do that :oops:

I kinda rushed into this without knowing really what's going on... I apologise! :wink:

To tell the truth, As I didn't know about the project, I was doing the song mostly beacause it was DAMN fun, i had plans of submitting it in VGMix or something, but someone actually told me to come and participate so I kinda rushed into things...
Again, im sorry for that...

Im gonna leave the song in this thread... It's not finished yet, and has some room to grow... If you guys come up with something better, great!! :)

PS.: Since Holy Warrior Azar is jumping off the boat, can I have a try at Sky Sanctuary? (if there's nobody doing it, i can leave Hydro City to Gman and yoshi_84 and try it, on the contrary, I keep my version of Hydro City Here)

PS.: Is there any song, not yet being covered by someone?

Read the first post in this thread, you can see all the rules there and who does which song.

Note that the initiator of this project encourages anybody to take part, even if that means competing with others.

I can only agree with him on that point. I'd rather have just the best song of three than the song of whoever managed to sign up for it first.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Your remix impressed me so much REd Tailed, I'm FORCING you to be in the project. GGs.

Yeah, it makes sense, but I mean, if there was any uncovered song it would be better to take it and make sure all songs are taken... That's what aI meant... i guess...

Yeah im gonna leave it here, which ever is the best, sweet... Thanks for the feedbeack by the way, im gonna start working on it right away! :D

PS.: can I realease the song on VGMix and keep it in the project? (no problem if I can't, just making sure I don't make a possible big mistake).

ah crap, another Sky Sanctuary remixer to compete aginst :D j/k
I'd like to hear your rendition of it. I really like your Hydrocity one, so this one should turn out great too. :wink:

Thanks!!!

You can relax for now :D , i think im gonna stick with my Hidrocity one, firstly beacause it keeps me busy enough, and because I don't wanna just start remixing everything (and because im a slow guy, since I spend a lot of time in school and etc)...

Besides, EVERYTHING of Sonic 3 & K is just brilliant, so if I am to remix something else, I will think carefully about it...

Well DCT and I officially got in contact about the Carnival theme and he essentially said I could have it.

It's interesting... if a little bit overly mechanized.
And, I believe, flat in some points. Though that may be intentional.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I'm assuming he is still working on his other remix.

I quite like what is going on so far, the idea seems promissing and different.

Some of the synths indeed sound very flat, perheaps some reverb (very little, tough) would fix that up.

I don't really have too much to comment for now, this song could go everywhere from a hard rocking trance electro track, to a funky psicodelic (and quite strange actually) song... I have to wait to see... But nice job so far!
:wink:

[Less Ashamed Of Self]

Thanks guys, I agree that I like where it's going but it's funny... with my burn-your-bridges style that that'll probably be about a 10th of the material used in the actual finished package... I'll probably go in a few different directions with a very eccentric and disjointed feel.

As for whether or not DCT is still game for his other song; I'm afraid you'll have to ask him. :D

[Mr. Fox]

I'll probably go in a few different directions with a very eccentric and disjointed feel.

Wooohooo that's gold!
Kinda reminds me of Shnabubula's remixes!
Great, more different = better!

[DCT]

I'm assuming he is still working on his other remix.
Indeed he is.

Special Stage is coming along cool, but Carnival Night Zone was kicking my ass; I think LAOS will go a good job with it, as evidenced from that WIP. Don't worry, I'll have something by the deadline to show my progress.

What exactly do have to present by the deadline? Does the song need to be completed? Or just a fairly done WIP will do?

I would, it's just that, uh, one of their rules states that WIPs aren't allowed, and also anything using samples or melodies from copyrighted material is disallowed. So, that pretty much rules me out...any other ideas?

EDIT: Oh and one more thing - my WIP is actually complete. Getting it hosted somewhere is all I need.

Hey, you don't need to apologize. :) It's all good. It seems like Gman and I are the ones getting in the way of you since we haven't produced a WIP (disregard that lame first one that was just by me back on page five or something) and since everyone loves yours. Who knows what's gonna happen, though.

The music you've written is excellent, but the qaulity of production drags it down a lot. The stings sound fake and lifeless, and when everything comes together it's just like a blur of sound (I think it even clips?). It's good, but you need to work on that production stuff. I'd be more specific, but i'm in a bit of a hurry. Keep working at it though, other than production, it's good so far!

The strings are indeed fakish, HOWEVER... I know this will sound completely nuts, but have thought about putting some distorcion on them? Yeah, I know it seems ridiculous, but give ir a try... Because it reminds me some of the Rasputina's works, and that sweet! If it's not a big deal for you, try it out, just on the intro, see what comes out of it...

Overall, a promissing and tasty arrengment! :D

This is my first version. I chose several of the main themes out of it along with the intro. What do you all think? All comments are appreciated. By the way, so you know, I'm adding a keyboard solo right after the second theme you hear introduced at the end. The WIP featuring this will be up maybe in a few days.

i like it a lot...sounds way closer to tha original than mine. here's that...

i've already got vocals recorded fo it but i wanna keep em on the dl fo now. holla back.

[Upthorn]

Alright, I'm probably not going to have time to work on this anymore before the deadline, so here goes:

"Sacrosanct Skyway(working title)" (http://upthorn.mspencer.net/temp/fordownloading/SanctuaryShortMK2.mp3)

Some of the synths are still placeholders, and the drums are probably going to end up sounding completely different, but this is what it sounds like right now.

[Antipode]

Hey nesper, good work! I'm kicking myself for not straying farther from the original, but meh, they're just WIPs anyhow. Again, nice work.

I kind of like antipode's better. If only because it's creative, but still easily recognizable.
But perhaps also because I'm kind of against the idea of these songs having lyrics. (I have difficulty evenconcieving of the possibility that lyrics to any of these songs can be both relevant and good.)

[Antipode]

Thanks Upthorn - I was curious about something though. What do you think of instruments I'm using and the level on the drums? The second theme at the end needs some work, I know, but I was curious if there's much of anything anyone wants majorly changed about the first part.

[Upthorn]

Personally, I liked your instruments alot. My only real issue is with the first 30 seconds, which sound vaguely like a gimmicky THX thing.

I think the drums are good where they are, it gives it a kind of ambient feel, which I think is really cool.

Alright, I'm probably not going to have time to work on this anymore before the deadline, so here goes:

"Sacrosanct Skyway(working title)" (http://upthorn.mspencer.net/temp/fordownloading/SanctuaryShortMK2.mp3)

Some of the synths are still placeholders, and the drums are probably going to end up sounding completely different, but this is what it sounds like right now.

For the most part I like this, however there is an issue of key. The piano in the background needs to chance key with the melody. The first real major instance of this problem is at 0:56. It just sounds like two different keys clashing together, and thats not good. The way this song is structured is in a way that the song changes to 4 different keys in a metter of 8 measures. So when the melody changes key, the piano needs to as well, to keep things together.

[Nineko]

Kajinka's Sky Sanctuary is GREAT.
Maybe the best ReMix I've heard here in a long while. A complete song that give you whatever you want from the SS tune. Approved.

Tech quality (samples, EQ, echo, ...): 29/30
Interpretation, style, ideas: 29½/30
One word evaluation: "awesome"

[Mr. Fox]

Menu Molity: Wow!!! Quite a different ReMix! This project is coming out full of surprises hahaha!!
I don`t really know why, but it reminds me of a DK song... It has a nice groove to it, and a good ambience too. Keep it up.

Sacrosanct Skyway: Some minor EQing problems, but and OK song! I am not very fond of the source material so I can`t say much! But it is very good nonetheless!

Flippin Twankies: DAMN! You`ve got the groove man! :D Loved the fat bass you used, and this is just so good to listen to! It`s relaxing and grooving!!! :wink:
My only complaint go to that freaking voice... sample... ayei... stuff that you put there. I would encourage you not to put it (my ReMix also had voices like this, not very cool hahaha)... But overall this is definitely very good!!!

Overall: Im impressed with the range of styles this project is reaching, I mean, we don`t have any dominating style that`s very good.

[Hetcenus]

I need help! The FTP I would upload my file to has been having trouble. Can anyone do it for me? E-mail me at hetcenus@yahoo.com.br and I'll send the file. Thank you.

EDIT: Got it. Problem solved. Here's the file

http://hetcenus.sitesled.com/IvoryGadgetWIP.mp3

As you see, the name of the song is Ivory Gadget. Guess why... Actually I thought of giving it a name like Hard-Yellowish-White-Substance-Used-In-Piano-Keys Gadget, but it would be too long. It's a piano-solo version of Chrome Gadget.

Bad points: Low quality (I'm trying to do a better recording), I couldn't make the melody sound more different from the original and I'm still looking for other arrangements for the left hand. This lack of creativity is killing me...

Good points: I leave it to the listeners.

Thank you again!

Hidden Palace is hard. -_-
yeah sadorf, you can laugh now.

Anyways, I might do a collab with another talented remixer for this one, so stay tuned :wink:

Its improving....still lots of problems though. I think that it can be cleaned up, and some keys can be changed so that they sound more pleasent.

[UltimateSonicFan]

Edit: Thanks!

[Mr. Fox]

IvoryGadget:Huum... I think emotionally you found your way pretty nicely, but I have a few complaints. First of all, you are right, the recording is really bad, also I think your playing is a little bit static on the beguining (im no pianist, so I can't say for sure, im just telling how I feel :wink: ), the arregement pleases me a lot, but there's repetition in the middle... Nice WIP so far, but there are things to be fixed, I think.

Inner Sanctuary: Gosh, Sky Sanctuary must be the most popular song in this project hahaha :D . My heart still belongs to the orquestral version Kanjika did, but I don't deny this is some very good stuff! I was missing some good old happy technos tracks, and this just hits the right button on the right time! Great! :D I think the lead synth could be a little clearer tough, in fact, the whole thing could be louder (and more bass pleaseee), overall a very nice arregment. It flows very nicely!

[Rayza]

Sorry but my Credits Theme tune will be a little late. I hadn't planned on Reason 3 being such a power hog, but it is. Bought a new computer and I'm almost done configuring it. I talked to sith (formerly sith) about it and its all good. So don't count me out of that song, I should have something ready by the middle of next week. As for Azure Lake, I continue to work on it..

by all that is holy and sacred... how long must I wait to hear the WIP of the credits??? Oh well, guess the suspense will just build up untill I finally hear it... here's hoping its good, and dont rush it rayza! btw, Ill be glad to hear more of Azure Lake from you :D

[Nicole Adams]

Well, I decided to post a little WIP of what Gman and I have come up with. I arranged about 95% of this and most of the instruments were picked by me. Gman beefed it up with Reason's new super-cool mastering devices. Yeah, it's short, but oh well. :P

Some Hydrocity WIP - ftp://66.221.70.133/yoshi_84/SnKNikki%20[v0.5].mp3

[DCT]

I better post this now before I forget. The finished piece will probably sound totally different than it does now, since I might be collaborating with someone. But you can't say I didn't have a WIP done by the deadline. :wink:

http://www.thebigshot.com/music/unfinished/specialstage.ogg

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Did you use the same beat from your hedgehog heaven remix DCT? Itool, but needs mastering. Better mastering. Don't you use FL?

[DCT]

Yeah it's the same beat, but that's just gonna be there until I get farther along with writing the song, then it'll have some new PHAT BEETZ™. And yeah I definitely needs mastering, but I usually save that until the end.

Wait no longer! I just decided to work on the credits, and i have a very early WIP. it needs alot, and hopefully i can get more done before the deadline. Its also pretty short.

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3857

And the deadline is april 10th now? YES. That gives me time to work :D

[Antipode]

I think I'll be the first to say that this is excellent. Very good work. I'm interested in seeing what the other credits WIP turns up with, as possibly a different style could also work well with this. My only major suggestion here is maybe speed it up a bit. Very good considering the amount of time since your last release.

[Antipode]

Hey, yoshi_84 deserves some feedback here. I just love the way you and Gman are taking this. There isn't a better style to fit this song, I think. My one complaint is right at :15, the style abruptly changes - the intro is very different from the rest of it - possibly a more jazzy "spy" type of intro or at least something along the lines of the rest of the song could fit this well. Good work! Can't wait to hear more of it.

[Rayza]

Well orchestral credits are way different than I'd be doing them. Very nicely done so far. I'd suggest getting more pan variation in there, a lot of it sounded centerish to me..

Anyway heres what I've been working on lately..

http://www.rayza.net/misc/azure21.mp3

Been fighting with that main lead from the start. I don't have the patience to keep tweaking it anymore, hope y'all don't hate (the lead) too much..

[Sadorf]

Hidden Palace is hard. -_-
yeah sadorf, you can laugh now.

HAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHA
HAHAHA
HAHA
HAH
.....

Ok nuts it did....

I wasnt kidding when i said the song was being a pain in the ass....so i dunno. And you better find someone else to collab on that...u already know i refuse to have anything to do with that SHITTY SHITTY song...

yep thats all i got...

Well now, as for new WIPs from me...well...i am not ina rush anymore...i want to see what the next deadline is...and i will say ONE thing.. deadlines arent made to be moved, having a person or 2 say they are gonna be late is fine, no need ot move it... MOving it even this one day that you did, will result in it happening again, you can sa it wont happen all you want, and i will call bullshit... buut feel free to prove me wrong, would be rather nice to have thing work how they should.
people being a day late is fine....but why give everyone that extra time, will just make people work less..


sooo now that really is all i got..i gave Richter shit like 10 years ago on the Sonic 2 project about the constantly moving deadlines.... in the end everything worked out alright i think..but that was so long ago its hard to tell :) if this gets completed before summer is over..which is quite a long time for everyone, a lot of people and myself included will be impressed and happy that there will be all these kick ass mixes...that didnt take 10 years to make! heh

OMG BYE...

and as jealous as u all are, my sig will forever be the best there is :)

[The Joker]

I've really been working on my Hidden Palace mix moreso than my Doomsday mix... I got stuck on Doomsday figuring out a way to continue or end it. But expect an update soon of Hidden Palace soon.

Ah, feedback...and motivation! :) I'm glad you like it so far even though there isn't much. I'll see what I can do with the intro. That'll probably happen after we can come up with more of the arrangement, though.

It's pretty DAMN good!!!
I have some issues with it, but overall I loved it!! (hah, is tough saying that, but yeah, it's delicious!!! hahahaha)...
I need to go, I will make a better feedback when I come back, and also post a upgraded version of my hydrocity and a new WIP (Boss Act 2)
Keep up the great work!!!

[Dryer Lint]

OK, time for some more feedback:

Rayza - Azure Lake
The intro is nice, with the nature sounds, but a bit too long. I think it would sound better if one or two other instruments already joined in with the main instrument during the introduction.
I totally freaked out when the piano started playing! I thought I had some website with background music open, but then found out it was inside the song! It sounds pretty messed up, to be honest.
But it gets much better at around 2:13 and the following part is very cool.

DCT - Special Stage
Nice, but way too empty, especially before 0:22. Also, the drums seem too loud compared to the other instruments. But it's a nice idea to make this into a slow relaxing tune, because the original only reminds me of hectic running and turning on spherical levels... :)

yoshi_84, Gman - SnKNikki [v0.5]
Wow, this one has much improved since the last version I heard. But it's so short, it feels like you only got the intro so far. My vote goes to RTF's rendition of the theme, unless you make this much longer and more interesting.

antipode - Menu Molity
Hm... The composition is okay, but I don't like most of the samples/instruments used. Especially the one starting at 0:32, it really has to go. And the main instrument (Marimba? Xylophone?) sounds a bit weak. You should power it up a bit, maybe use a piano instead.

Anyway, good job guys, I'm looking forward to the day this project is completed!

P.S.: KungFuChicken!, only two more days until the deadline... Where's your WIP?

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I posted mine already once, I might post the update tommorow.

[Sora]

And the deadline is april 10th now? YES. That gives me time to work :D

wtf?!!It's like somehow you knew I was starting on this song as well :lol: but I'm probably not gonna post it, it's just for fun mostly.
All I could say is speed it up, cause this song was sort of an energetic song. I think the style would sound better for this song if it was different. :wink:

EDIT: I'll post another WIP of my song as soon as I finish fixing some stuff. Inspiration slapped me in the face so I'll try and make it more rave like and stuff. :wink:

[Rexy]

And you better find someone else to collab on that...u already know i refuse to have anything to do with that SHITTY SHITTY song...
From what I heard from Nuts, he's got some big plans on his sleeve :)

Anyhow, might as well mark in my progress. I've finished the scopes of my own arrangement, and with a bit of hope I should master it down and send it in time for the deadline. Just to let you know that I'm not dead... yet ;)

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3857

And the deadline is april 10th now? YES. That gives me time to work :D

I'm sorry to say, but I just do not like this at all, I really dont think the song can be worked out as an ochestrated piece... It reminds me more of the theme of Bastok in FFXI, than the credits... It's just not as ubeat and happy. It does have a bit of a soothing feel which I liked about the original, but it doesnt fit well. The song's speed really needs to be allot faster than your song. I personally think the song needs to be much more upbeat. The instruments used for the drums and the clapping was a nice choice though. Its okay in its own right... but I dont think it does the original piece justice.

Well orchestral credits are way different than I'd be doing them. Very nicely done so far. I'd suggest getting more pan variation in there, a lot of it sounded centerish to me..

Anyway heres what I've been working on lately..

http://www.rayza.net/misc/azure21.mp3

Been fighting with that main lead from the start. I don't have the patience to keep tweaking it anymore, hope y'all don't hate (the lead) too much..


Rayza, your new Azure Lake WIP is really great... its just fantastic. I love the sounds in the background, Ive noticed one, the spin dash, its just plain cool that you put it in there :D. The intro is really great! I love the length of it, and I dont get tired of it. I love the ambience in it and then how it leads into an ubeat happy tune.

The only problem i have with it is the piano comes in at 1:58. Like Dryrer Lint, I thought something had popped up in the background and started playing. Mostly because it was so abrubt and it just sounds akward and too bold from the rest of the song. maybey you could try to lead into it starting with a low volume and increasing it? The rest of the music is too loud when it first starts, and it just sounds bad :? .

After the piano leaves, (a little abrubtly like it came in lol) at 2:13 the song just amazes me again and I love the new tune you put in. At 2:42 however, this part feels very tranquil and I love it. But this came in a little abrubtly, but better than the piano did :lol: . I like the break from the upbeat feel, and the instruments you used fit well with the rest of the song. Make this part longer please? It's really great.

I do think you need to lead into the original at 2:56 "easier". It again.. kind of abruptly comes into the song. In the background underneath the original tune, I hear some kind of ambient noise that I like, maybe you could bring up the volume on that more? I can hear the song starting to slow down at around 3:10 and realize the song is starting to come to an end... :cry: Then it comes back with that upbeat beat again, and I like the bells you put into that, it sounds... pretty, if you're willing to accept that description, lol. I think the song ends on too much of an ubeat tempo, but it is nice.

All in all, I LOVE this song ^^. my only major concern is the introducing of new beats and instruments, ...but mostly that horrific piano. Take the piano out, and you've got yourself a great WIP :wink:. Id be willing to accept it as a final version it sounds so great. I hope you make the song longer, because the song is so great that I want it to keep going, makes me sad when it starts to fade out, lol. Keep up the good work. Now I cant wait anymore to hear the credits from you after hearing this!!

[Nicole Adams]

yoshi_84, Gman - SnKNikki [v0.5]

Yeah, it's short and it is just the intro. :) Therefore, there will be much more to it. I plan to utilize my jazz band knowledge and (hopefully) create some jazzed up, funky stuff. :P

[Mr. Fox]

Wooohoo! That's primissing!!
I will be posting the upgraded version of my Hydrocity theme and my new WIP later today!

[Rayza]

Dear Tertial,

Thanks for all the comments. Glad you like it so far. I know I need to work on the ending more, I was mostly working on the lead for most of the time and it will be a lot smoother in all the transitions eventually.

Also the way you hear it now is not how it will end in the final version, I just haven't completed writing it yet. I'm probably just going to jam for a few bars with that lead and start bringing everything out for the end..

As for the piano part, thats just my sense of humor at work. I love making obviously horrible things and seeing what people will say. Like that way detuned song I posted a year or so ago and people were like "ehh, you should fix this and that.." I'm just waiting for someone to say, what the hell was that garbage? Don't be afraid to say it! Hah..

Anyhow, yes the piano will be gone in the final version. Hopefully I can get started on the credits mix soon, any suggestions for genre to write it in? Obviously something upbeat/dancey.. Again thanks for the comments.

EDIT: Also you mentioned you noticed the sonic spin sound effect, did you notice the "3 2 1 GO" sound effect at 2:52?

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Kanji, disregaurd Terial, the song is cool to me ;)

[Terial]

Kanji, disregaurd Terial, the song is cool to me ;)

>< im sorry, but i just plain love the credits. Kanji, dont let me bother you, i just havent heard anything so far that does the song justice IMHO, I just want the song to be perfect for the project. but really, everyone else likes it, so just feel free to ignore me ^^;.

[Xerol Oplan]

My WiP's on my desktop which has been nonfunctional for a week. Looks like I'm out.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I'll make you a small exception Xerol ;)

[Mr. Fox]

I've been working, so here it is... :D

Aquatic Pressure (http://www.vgmix.com/song_manage.php?song_id=3802): Some more EQing work, and diferent synth playing in the end. Enjoy. :)

Sonik Bakley and the Jazz Hedgehogs (http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3867): Ok, im sorry. It’s not my fault, I had NOTHING to do over these last days (too sick to go to school). So, I decided to try and mess around with Reason, to see what could come around. In the end I came up with another WIP for the Sonic 3 & Knuckles Remix Project. Boss Theme Act 2.
It’s still VERY primitive, just a 3 minutes : some seconds jam.
In fact, Aquatic Pressure is by far my main contribution for the project, and I still need feedback on that one (ANY feedback is welcome)… Im not substituting it, just adding this one to see what people think of it (and also, to provide a relaxing tune for everybody who is working hard here to relax and laugh a little bit )
I find this one quite interesting, it is an arrangement for a jazz trio (turning into a quartet later), playing the theme in a blues/piano jazz way, which may seem strange due to the choice of source material, but in the end, it fitted…
PS.: The melody only comes in after the one minute mark, so don’t get scared, it’s NOT an original.
PS.: Yeah, there’s a lot of soloing going on…
PS.: I know the piano is quite mechanic in the main melody, but im working on that. Sax is under work as well.
PS.: It will be longer. It's also my first tradional jazz work, so go easy on me! :)
Super PS.: If anyone here who works with Reason wants to collab on this one, please let me know, it would be great. :D

Any feedback is very welcome, in any one of the two songs…
Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Several of these samples I got from the links in the section here at OCR, but none have been extremely helpful. In a few more days I might have a new edit of the song with the beginning noise altered a bit, the bassline instrument fixed, and the main levels fixed. Plus with a little more added on, probably. Oh and just a random note, it's actually "Motility", but I figure that doesn't matter much because probably not too many people know what that means anyway. :wink: I'm looking forward to hearing the next versions of everyone's work, and by the way Lint, thanks for the comments.

[hobo]

I'm back! Holy crap there's a lot of WIPs to download. I can't possibly comment on them all, but Rayza, your Azure mix is fantastic. BTW, what happens at about 2:00 in that?

[DJ Nova]

An update on my WiP...

http://home.planet.nl/~hofm0200/s3finalboss.mp3

Still pretty crappy.
Need to fix volume issues an' stuff.

Offcourse feedback is appriated ^^

[Holy Warrior Azar]

Deadline is today, so the voting should be starting soon right?

[UltimateSonicFan]

Deadline is today, so the voting should be starting soon right?

Deadline is actually tommorow, and from what I take it, KFC is going to give us much time to work on our WIP's before weeding them out. Kind of pointless to vote anyways right now. There is only a few entries that have two or more people working on the same song. Besides, I need a chance to get rid of my crappy violins and replace them with either a real violin track or better samples.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

USF hit the nail on the head. The voting will start on the second deadline date. Why vote now when people are really just starting to establish their songs?

[Rexy]

Just in time for the deadline, I've managed to finish off the composition for my own contribution -

OMG PLZ RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT "SAVE TARGET AS" FO SHIZZLE (http://www.angelfire.com/music6/moulinrex/divided-grace3.mp3)

Quickly mentioning what I intended again - the first half reflects upon the scenery of the first act, as peaceful as ever and with blue skies flapping around it. This half then ended with a climatic proportion as signalled by the zone's mid boss - you know, that machine that ends up putting the whole island in flames.
The second half then shows a good amount of grief over the island's fate. No longer is it full of peace - it will take a long time just to recover from its own tormented state. Angrily, the player (controlling Sonic, Tails or Knuckles) makes their dash through the second act, gradually regaining their feelings while going around the many pitfalls that eventually lead to the zone boss as well as the Hydrocity Zone upon kicking the crap outta Eggman.

I managed to take in the account of lowering the drum volume ever so slightly and adding some reverb onto the muted trumpet. And I also thought carefully about how to reflect on anger at the end of the first half and the return of the core instrumentation within the second half; things that came to mind here were angry distortion (which have been applied upon some synth VSTs floating around the college campus), a steadier drum beat and a lot of timpani action.

Well, that's about it from me (for now); hope this is an improvement over the previous version :P

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

It's awesome Rexy. I liked it at first, but now I like it way more. WE HAVE A WINNER.

Sonik Bakley and the Jazz Hedgehogs (http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3867): Ok, im sorry. It’s not my fault, I had NOTHING to do over these last days (too sick to go to school). So, I decided to try and mess around with Reason, to see what could come around. In the end I came up with another WIP for the Sonic 3 & Knuckles Remix Project. Boss Theme Act 2.
It’s still VERY primitive, just a 3 minutes : some seconds jam.
In fact, Aquatic Pressure is by far my main contribution for the project, and I still need feedback on that one (ANY feedback is welcome)… Im not substituting it, just adding this one to see what people think of it (and also, to provide a relaxing tune for everybody who is working hard here to relax and laugh a little bit )
I find this one quite interesting, it is an arrangement for a jazz trio (turning into a quartet later), playing the theme in a blues/piano jazz way, which may seem strange due to the choice of source material, but in the end, it fitted…
PS.: The melody only comes in after the one minute mark, so don’t get scared, it’s NOT an original.
PS.: Yeah, there’s a lot of soloing going on…
PS.: I know the piano is quite mechanic in the main melody, but im working on that. Sax is under work as well.
PS.: It will be longer. It's also my first tradional jazz work, so go easy on me! :)
Super PS.: If anyone here who works with Reason wants to collab on this one, please let me know, it would be great. :D

Any feedback is very welcome, in any one of the two songs…
Thanks in advance!

First off, you’re doin’ jazz so you really need some style here. Not meaning to sound harsh, but if you got no style (not you personally) you don’t have much. Jazz is something you gotta feel (and KungFuChicken!, for one, said he wasn’t feeling this track). Here are some tips for giving your song some style.

- For groupings of eighth notes, accent notes on the upbeat. Meaning notes on the upbeat have a higher velocity than notes on the downbeat. Therefore, “ghost” the notes on the downbeat. “Ghost” means to play really soft, but with the same intensity.
- A lot of jazz has pairs of eighth notes being played as a quarter + eighth triplet. If you’re kinda lost on that, the quarter + eighth triplet adds up to one beat and the eighth note is accented. Most likely (if not always) the eighth note is played short and tight, like a bite.
- The bass usually changes notes every quarter note for movement of the song.
- Possibly some small tom fills before the end of a section/phrase will add interest. I notice some, but they are so slight. I’m not saying have the drums shine (since this is just a smooth improv-ishy setting), but just let them have a little more fun.

I hope these tips will help you out on improving this piece. It has a lot of potential and it’s mostly just style-challenged. On a side note, though, some people have a harder time with style than reading the actual music so I’m sorry if I made improving the style sound easy as it may not be for you. Oh, I can e-mail you a page of alto sax sheet music for learning purposes if you’d like. I’d like to collab with you on this, but I’m so busy with college, work and remixing Hydrocity. However, since you said you said you aren’t submitting this for the project, I can probably help you out if you want to work on it in the summer. Good luck! :D

By the way, I’m somewhat worried how our version of Hydrocity will go so can you tell me when the next deadline is going to be, KungFuChicken!? Sorry for being impatient.

[Holy Warrior Azar]

USF hit the nail on the head. The voting will start on the second deadline date. Why vote now when people are really just starting to establish their songs?

Good Points, I completley forgot that the votes would be on the final versions as opposed to the wips.

[Rexy]

There's another thing that I should have asked sooner - what explains the orange text on the front page? ;)

Thanks for the huge feedback! :D
I don't know if I will do all these things you mentioned, I quite like the feel of it, sounds a bit like a jam, but im going to try.

Things that surely will be on the next version:
1 - re-interpreted main melody, it was very mechanic and wrote it again in a jazzier way.

2 - different drums

3 - wrote some more parts (a bit Yellowjackets like)...

Man, I think I expressed myself wrongly back there. This is a WIP for the project... Unless I can not have two, which doesn't seem to be the case, so yeah, this is a WIP for the project as well as my Hydrocity... Sorry if I said it wrong! :oops:

Thanks yoshi!!! I will work on it!

That's okay about what you said. :) It's awesome you're trying another song for the project!

By the way, awesome remix, Rexy! It's cool to know there is another female remixer involved with this project. :)

[Sora]

Rexy: I get such a nice feel from this. Sounds like you've accomplished what you were going for. :D

[Hetcenus]

IvoryGadget:Huum... I think emotionally you found your way pretty nicely, but I have a few complaints. First of all, you are right, the recording is really bad, also I think your playing is a little bit static on the beguining (im no pianist, so I can't say for sure, im just telling how I feel :wink: ), the arregement pleases me a lot, but there's repetition in the middle... Nice WIP so far, but there are things to be fixed, I think.

Thank you for the comments. Actually, I tried to sound a little melancholic at the beginning. But the repetition in the middle is just that lack of creativity a talked about and on which I'm working now. But I thought, what's the problem? It's just a WIP it's not the final song. And I had to meet the deadline.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

It's officially deadline day.

[Nicole Adams]

It's officially deadline day.

Dun, dun, duuunnn! *lol*

[Reaif]

I have question real fast that's kind of off-topic.

What's the difference between the music in Sonic and Knuckles and Sonic 3 and Knuckles? Aren't they the same game, but for the fact that you can play the Sonic and Knuckles levels with Tails? Please enlighten me.

[SoloGamer]

Well, for one, a couple of the songs are a bit different.
Also, if this were just a Sonic and Knuckles project, then some songs from Sonic 3 would not be included. Same thing if it was just Sonic 3, except it would miss out on the songs on Sonic & Knuckles.

Basically, the difference is there's more levels in Sonic 3 & Knuckles than in just plain ol' Sonic & Knuckles.

[Rexy]

The only difference is that the Sonic 3 credits theme is never applied in Sonic 3 & Knuckles; similar thing to Sonic 3's act 1 boss theme. Hope that expands on that theory ;)

[Nineko]

also all the tunes based on the main theme (e.g. invincible, or super sonic) are different. sonic 3 & knuckles use the knuckles version instead of the sonic 3 one.

[hobo]

If it's deadline day, does that mean mixers stop publicly submitting WIPs?

[ffmusic dj]

It's officially deadline day.

um ... ooh yea! I have a remix due! .... here ya go sir,

http://ffmusic.net/SONIC3+K(boss%201).mp3

You are so lucky, it's not even funny. I stayed up all night finishing it up for you. So I better see a smile!!!

How do you like it?

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Cool stuff ffmusicdj!

And no, you can still publicly release wIPs -for now-

And of course,I have a few people who are holding back on that and keeping it top secret.

Now just nesper and rayza's other songs (they are up for two) and EVERYONE will be in the clear (Xerol got a small break since I know he working and he let me hear something.

[Kanjika]

So songs are due NOW?

And when are we voting on WIPs?

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I love when people don't read.

[Kanjika]

oops

[Terial]

hey sithlord, after you get in all the WIPs that have been publicly released, i think it would be a good idea to make links to them on the first post of the topic. That would make it easier for people to hear the most recent version of someone's WIP. just an idea that might be usefull

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

^No. I have a reason, but I don't care to say.

[Rayza]

Ok, heres a newer version (no whacky piano) for the WIP 1 deadline. As stated earlier, I'll post the credits theme soon hopefully. Thanks for bein patient folks..

Dude Rayza, your remix sounds so fucking awesome with these new highend as fuck headphones! 8) 8) 8)

[Mr. Fox]

Updated Sonik Bakley and The Jazz Hedgehogs. :D

Re-interpreted the main melody on all instruments / new drums line / new part...

Quite an evolution I would say.

No changes in Aquatic Pressure for now.

Link on the sig

Thanks, enjoy!!!
Feedback apreciated!

[Terial]

Azure Lake - Rayza

WOO! Rayza, the song is AWESOME! :D And with that piano out of the song I finally have a song to put on my PSP. I like that new part you put in at 2:00, well I guess its new, maybe it was under that piano in your previous WIP :wink: . this is definetly my favorite song on the project so far... but Kanjika's Sky Sanctuary WIP is getting quite a bit of my attention too. BTW, that 3,2,1 GO! sound effect at 2:54 is really cool, but its kind of hard to notice untill you start to listen for it, I wouldnt have heard that spin dash if I hadnt sat there as a kid and wasted half of my childhood playing sonic XD. Maybey you could incoporate some more of those sounds into your song, then again if you put too many in there, it could get annoying. Keep up the great work!


Sonik Bakley and the Jazz Hedgehogs - Red Tailed Fox

I didnt really like this jazz tune... I just dont think it gets the "serious" emotion that the player would feel when trying to beat the crap out of Robotnik. The original tune is easy to hear, but some of the other instruments take my attention away from it. In some parts of the song, the piano that plays the original melody are just a tad too weak. Sorry to say, I just dont like it =/.

Aquatic Pressure (Feel the music!!!) - Red Tailed Fox

I love this!! :D I love everything about this WIP except the intro. All of the other things about the song are great! The different parts in the song are pretty different, but still keep in the same feeling. I never really liked Hydrocity Zone as much as the other zones' tunes, but you've made an excellent song out of it. I think the ending needs more work to slow down to a close, because it feels like it ends just a little too soon, but otherwise, this song is awesome!

[jmr]

Here's my latest WIP of "Eternal Excavation".
EDIT: Thanks Rayza:

Nice jmr, it sounds awesome. Love the ending. :D

WIP (http://www.ichitootah.com/_private/Helium%20Stairways%20(WIP).mp3)

Not a great WIP...

Not even... a good WIP.

But a WIP nonetheless.

It means I'm thinking about this project still. Yay.

I don't like the organ part. Tell me to get rid of it, and I will. I'm having problems with this song, and I'm not sure why, I just don't like how it's coming together.

Advise me, people!

Edit: One of the reasons I'm having trouble on this song is I can't seem to evade the clipping with it.

Second reason: The source material is lackluster at best, so I'm completely "re-imagining" it. It's not easy.

This whole song sounds very right heavy.. Is everything panned to the right by accident? Other wise it sounds really good.. The beatwork is well done and the sounds come together pretty good.. Maybe a little more EQ work for the final but I like it so far..

[Ichitootah]

Hmm... Panned to the right you say? I've got to listen to this with headphones. Thanks for the feedback, I just hope I'm being overcritical of myself...

[Mr. Fox]

But Robotnik is always so DAMN easy... :wink:
Hahahaha Just kidding, thanks for the feedback!!!
The jazz is not as developed as my hydro city ReMix, it might get a lot better.

[Less Ashamed Of Self]

Say, shouldn't this project be moved to that official projects section yet?

[Nineko]

Say, shouldn't this project be moved to that official projects section yet?no, because first we must finish the first wip stage to point out actual ReMixers and decide which songs accept when there are two or more from the same tune.
THEN we can start the second wip stage (in the project section) by working on the approved tracks that would make the final version. however, as prot said in that section, if the project isn't interesting it must be moved to GenDisc again. I think S3&K is amazing and I really want to see it as a project, but waiting a bit more is surely a good thing.

(I think)

[Bren]

Dude Rayza, your remix sounds so fucking awesome with these new highend as fuck headphones! 8) 8) 8)

What a coincidence, my good headphones just died :cry:

Ill be putting out the (slightly) brushed up version of my mix shortly.

i'll have something up in a little bit on my other one. :)

If voting on mixes happens before ALL THE SONGS ARE COMPLETE.... this will be just a waste of mine, and other peoples time.

I am sure voting and all that other fun shit will happen after the songs are complete..well the ones that there are more than one mixer for anyways.
Voting on shit before the mixer even gets a chance to finish....that would be just pure bullshit.

The voting will be after everything is done

[Sora]

hmmmm....very interesting. That's the feel from the song I expected, when I thought of this song.
I really like it :wink: the thing is: sometimes the main synth (guess it's a sax) sounds off key a little. Like the pitch went up. I know you probably intended it to be this way, but it sounds a little off when I hear it...kinda makes you think the guy played a wrong note or something. But if that's how it's supposed to be I have no problem with it. :D
it's great nonetheless.

To Darkesword: your mix is very smooth. I love teh synth that you used. Makes the feeling of the song perfect to that of the original and then some :D

yeah...i'm trying to fix that...i believe it's a delay issue...still not sure. i have'nt really put a whole lot of time into this one, but since i'm almost finished with my other mix i'll be able to work this one out. thnx for the comments!

[Nicole Adams]

Awesome song, Rayza. Great racey feel to it. :)

[Rayza]

Thanks.. I was thinking of getting some announcer sounding guy to be like "its a rainy day for a race here in azure lake.. etc.. " right at the start just where the pads are playing.. Good idea or bad idea..?

[Upthorn]

http://www.rayza.net/misc/azure22b.mp3

I love it. I can't tell if you tweaked the lead synth, or it's just been longer since I listened to the one that grated, but it's not bugging me anymore, which makes this pretty much perfect so far.

Glad you're liking it more.. Yeh I worked through like 7 or 8 lead synths before settling on this one. I was getting frustrated after a while, heh.. Might make a good name though since this is a race tune. "Battle For The Lead" (synth).. :)

Not sure if anyone mentioned this before but its distorting due to high levels. Get your levels down and watch the volume meters, they'll tell you if you're distorting (clipping) or if you're ok. I kinda cringed when I heard that stock plucked sample, been done to death really. Even I used that thing way back in the day. :)

Around 2:54 its just getting way to heavy and muddy. Are you eqing your instruments? I think its mostly the problem that I mentioned above, overall level is too high. Keep that under control and this will sound a lot cleaner right off the bat.

I also think its too long for the nature of this song. Personally I think if you cut a minute off this thing it would be for the best. Theres just not enough variation going on to keep it interesting for 5 minutes..

I like the energy and style that you're going for but theres a few problems that need to be fixed before proceeding. #1 being the distorting.. Ch-ch-checkitout!

[The Joker]

Great Song Nuts. But here's the thing, unless I got Lava Reef & Hidden Palace mixed up... I could swear that's the lava reef zone melody playing, not hidden palace. So, yeah, I may be wrong & have a messed up GYM file. But it should be listed under Lavae Reef Zone.

No.
Lave Reef and Hidden palace have the same start. The second section of the song is what makes them different.
This was a demo of less than two minutes, and one entire minute is dedicated to build up the intro with ambience. So that's only the beginning. The part that comes after it will portrait hidden palace song.

[Mr. Bottle Rocket]

I can say with the utmost certainty that the Lava reef zone 1 song and the hidden palace song DO NOT have the same start.

Well, they do share the same background synth progression, but not melody lines :?
Then again, whatif he's using Lava Reef as an Easter Egg or something? That could always be a possibility.

Anyhow, I'll be interested to see how it develops :)

I agree with you as well. Anyway, I was looking for a Hidden Palace midi to link to in order to clear up confusion, but all of the ones on Vgmusic appear to be mixes between Lava Reef and Hidden Palalce. :-(

Here is a proper midi of Hidden Palace zone that I found on TSC. I hope I don't piss off JD Harding by hotlinking to his site. :-\

http://www.thesoniccorner.com/accounts/1002/100406.mid
Yes, I must say I was in a mistake.

See, I haven't played a lot of S&K so I dunno the source tunes very well. And since all the midis I've heard start with lavareef I though that was the way it went, so I started with the lava reef part.
Anyways, I'm not thinking about changin my mix, I was going to portrait the hidden palace melody after the end of this demo so I'll leave the lava reef part there as some sort of cameo, and I'll change it up a bit too, to then focus on the hidden palace song.
It will still be a Hidden palace remix though. The melodies are very alike, after all.

I must admit I didn't like the original version of this tune but I like this new style, it's happy. However, you should work harder on the EQ. sometimes it seems that volumes aren't very right. (sorry but I don't know how to explain this feeling in English). by the way, don't be so sorry, this is a WIP, so there is a bunch of improvements you can do.
Style: 25/30
Quality: 14/30

[Sora]

thanks. The EQ is the last thing I work on. (that and the volume levels)

oh and Ichitootah: I love this mix (especially the drums). Great work. :D

[Nineko]

thanks. The EQ is the last thing I work on. (that and the volume levels)so that's ok, it's a really nice song, you're definitely on the right way.
oh, and congratulations for your 101st post (aka I forgot to tell you for your 100th...)

I´ve hope if this project go up.

Hope? If? What's with all this lame ass uncertainty. The project's going great and it will get finished.

And if you notice in hidden palace, it stars off with Lava Reef(lightyly though). Game set match. Although..... I think Sir Nuts used a little too much of the melody (cause it would sound to anyone else like a LAVA REEF remix.) It is indeed awesome though.

As for the album being finished... W....T....F...

I will be making a front page update soon, so look out for that.

This project is so great. I´m so frustrated. But I had very fun to see this project, indeed. :wink:

you´re involved on this project, Txai? I just noticed the death of Wario Project. But you did a good decision of course.

Shh. :|

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Funny Txai (I hope you didn't mispell taxi on your name by accident.) :lol:

[Rexy]

note - YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE PROJECT NAME NOW IF YOU WANT
Yay ^_^

...

except... I still need to think of some ideas :?

[Txai]

Funny Txai (I hope you didn't mispell taxi on your name by accident.) :lol:

My name is Txai, really (pronounced "chi").

I also have some samples of my work stocked on VGMix.

My best mix as well. (http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3270)

I want to learn more to do some cool stuff on future. I will! :wink:

[Txai]

I´ve a lot of ideas. But I´m not inspired yet. See you guys tomorrow.

[Sora]

Blue Balls? :lol:
naa seriously...um... Emerald Fusion?
Chasing the Emeralds?
Sonic Blur? Symphonic Sonic? Hedgehog Harmony? All these are from the S2 Project :lol:

[Nineko]

hey Sora look at page 1: it seems your work isn't listed there.

[Mr. Fox]

note - YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE PROJECT NAME NOW IF YOU WANT-

Ha... Im terrible with names! :D
"Symphonic Sonic" doesn't really makes a lot of sense to me.
What about "Hedgehog Orgasm"? :lol:

No really, my sugestions are "Emerald Jukebox" or "Chronicles the Hedgehog"...

Yeah, i suck at names... :?

[Sadorf]

[Ichitootah]

YAY A MISTAKE!!!!!!!!


OMG LETS FILL THE THREAD WITH GAY NAME SUGGESTIONS SO THAT PEOPLE THAT DO THE IMPORTANT THINGS...LIKE MIXING, WILL HAVE TO DIG THRU TONS OF PAGES OF STUPID SHIT NOONE CARES ABOUT YET.

if i get asked by someone to go check out the thread and get a wip or something, i will refuse. OOOOOR, if i feel like getting some WIPs that i missed..yeah..just no.

I suggest u reconsider the whole OMG GIVE NAME THING. I dont wanna dig thru that much meaninsless crap. I am not trying to be an ass, i am telling you all what i think about it. And if u disagree with the amount of shit this will bring, well...just supid..

Uhm... I agree. Though not as vehemently.

[Sadorf]

...

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I didn't ask for a name. I just said they can if they want to. If your panties is bunched up that bad...

[Murmeli Walan]

Fisting Asian Hedgehog Fun...OF THE CHOZO.

[Sadorf]

...

[Nicole Adams]

I agree with Sadorf. The project still has a long way to go and the album title is the least important thing at the moment. Album title posts clutter up the thread and do make it kind of hard to find the imporant posts. There is also no point to calling Sadorf a cry baby. He isn't being one. He's just trying to get the point across in a very agressive way. He's one of the few here that's brave enough to do it.

[AkumajoBelmont]

If it's not to late, i'd like to offer up my Hydrocity WIP for use in the project. If not, then you've got another completely different Hydrocity (zone 2) mix to follow... it probably isn't as far along as a lot of the WIP's, but it sounds ok so far:)

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=3874

Hope this goes down well:)

EDIT: After 1:30, it needs a lot of work... the synth at 1:57 will be replaced - it's just there for the moment.
Next version should be almost the whole song (not complete, but the bones'll be there.).

I changed it back. And I was joking about the cry baby part.

[UltimateSonicFan]

Well, I have much to do, so I might as well throw a name into the proverbial hat: Chaos of the Floating Island. Hedgehog Heaven had nothing to do with the story of Sonic 2, and I hope this remix album does. After all, it DOES take place on a crashed floating island.

[Murmeli Walan]

Sorry UltimateSonicFan, but we already agreed on Fisting Asian Hedgehog Fun...OF THE CHOZO.

I think it complements the project perfectly.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

No More Name Talk.

[Sadorf]

...

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Also, as of now, no more new people.

[Bren]

"Hedgehog Heaven Goes Live"


just kidding :wink:

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Oh and akumajobelmont, you are now on the list. Love your remix man, it's awesome. Near the end, it would cool with a guitar instead of a synth (around 1:00), but even then it's still cool.

[Murmeli Walan]

Wow, already there's remixer drama. And suprise, it involves Sadorf.

This is gonna turn into another Hedgehog Heaven quick, at this rate.

[jmr]

u know, sithlordaku... you are a little bitch, a little bitch that i will not mix for. I hope more people realize that as well, bitch.
Whoa whoa whoa! Remember that you are not mixing for sithlordaku (or whatever he's called these days), but for the legions of people who are interested in this project. While I agree that the title should not be discussed as of now, I think you should cut sithlord some slack. He has made some mistakes, but notice how he attempts to correct them before things get too out of hand.

In summary, just go easy on the guy...

[Upthorn]

u know, sithlordaku... you are a little bitch, a little bitch that i will not mix for. I hope more people realize that as well, bitch.

enjoy my new page i made just for you
http://66.221.70.133/sadorf/Sonic3/

three points
1) It's not sith you're mixing for, it's the community at large, which should include yourself.
2) You're totally being more of a bitch than sith.
3) It's changed back, there's no more name talk, you got what you want.

No need to throw a tantrum.

I agree with Sadorf. The project still has a long way to go and the album title is the least important thing at the moment.

There's nothing brave about refusing to be polite.
All it took for the "No name talk yet" to get there in the first place was a few people saying "Name talk isn't what we need right now, and it's distracting."
As opposed to this "OMGWTF!!!!1 You made pepole name tlak! u a cunt!"

[AkumajoBelmont]

Album title posts clutter up the thread and do make it kind of hard to find the imporant posts.

Hence some may have missed my post b4 - a Hydro City Zone 2 WIP. if it's not to late to join the project.

Link to WIP in my sig.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I posted that I heard it. It's on this page.

[AkumajoBelmont]

Oops, missed it in amongst all the other crap:)) I've only got half the song done so far, but it's progressing surprisingly quickly:) Thx for the somments:)

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I'd like to take the time to announce the departure of two remixers (RoeTaka and Sadorf).

RoeTaka wasn't feeling happy with his remix, and dude to a few minor issues with Sadorf, he is also gone. Good luck to both mixers in the future.

[Ichitootah]

This community is a lot less mature than I expected. No biggie, I guess.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Also, Xerol will be temporarily off the project because of his schedule. If he gets a chance, we will see him again, if not- Goodluck, I enjoyed his piano work.
