Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Round 60: Escape From the Planet of Robot Monsters - Main Theme Midi: http://compo.thasauce.net/files/materials/MnP60_Escape_from_the_Planet_of_the_Robot_Monsters.mid Youtube: "Hi HoboKa! I think it's time to take a nostalgia trip back to 1990 to remix an arcade classic! It would be great to hear some remixes of the main theme of one of my favorite games from my childhood, "Escape From The Planet Of The Robot Monsters". Sorry for the long title though!" - Xenonetix Deadline: Sept 18th Sun 1 PM Vote Ends: Sept 20th Tues 11 PM MnP ARCHIVE - made by Trism Submit your remix Here when completed. **If you have technical difficulty with account activation at ThaSauce, please contact me via PM and I will submit your track and will also tally your vote** MISSION STATEMENT The goal of Compo:MnP is to promote that "meat and potatoes" conservative approach to remixing: this includes the mood and composition of source tunes. It is up to the remixer to create their own personalization, or to simply give it a sound upgrade. Moreover, the compo is a great opportunity to hone your remixing skills and give video game music the respect that is due. SOME reinterpretation is recommended, but not required. MnP Instructions/Guidelines 1. Covers and Sound Upgrades are permitted. 2. Most or all of the source notes must be present (but not necessarily in the exact same order), secondly the mood (energy, pacing, feelings being conveyed etc) should also be retained. For example, a source tune that is fast-paced and energetic that's remixed into a mellow/chill-out theme would be a hard sell. 3. If you decide to do a genre swap (i.e. symphonic to techno), make sure that the conditions of #2 are met. 4. Submissions must be at a maximum of 20mb (keeping in step with ThaSauce's file size max). 5. Only 1 entry per participant. Previous winner cannot participate but can submit a BONUS entry. 6. All competitors and voters must adhere to the rules stated within: Competition Code and Conduct MISC/TIPS - When picking a source tune, make sure it has a MIDI to make ppl's lives easier. - In-game sound FX are permitted, so long as they don't comprise the whole track (i.e. replacing entire MIDI tracks with just sfx)

I am a little surprised that the original outrun game got remixes but outrun 2019 never got any. I mean hell, not even youtube has anything. So here I am making a request. I would like to see tracks 3, and 4 remixes. Named "Steal into the night" And "Relight my fire." I may sound a little weird, as I'm asking for a remix, but not entirely a remix, more like a modern facelift. What they might sound like had they been created with todays tech, rather than what they had in the genesis era. Steal into the night: this I could see being rather well done in in more of a techno feel. Have a little fun with it, but I'd like it to feel closeer to the original than a whole new song. Relight my fire. This one feels like it would be better suited to a more real instrumental theme, I can't quite place the 'main' instruments and what they were trying to emulate, be it more brass, or string. Again I'd like it if it was kept close to home, not straying far from the original. Sorry if this feels totally useless for guidance.

Hmmm. This seems like it's more of a medley of Summer Lovin' and the Legend of Zelda theme more than it is a remix. It's simple and neat, but pretty basic. There needs to be more to this - Tell me more, tell me more! 'La celda gris' ('The Grey Cell'). What was your inspiration for this name? Just curious.

This is good. Sounds much cleaner, and I really like what you did with the SFX in the beginning. All it needs now... is more cowbell. Right @glasfen?

Ok, so... There's a bit more than a week left until the next deadline, so I think I need to leave a reminder here: here's the list of those who have some stuff in progress now: @evktalo @zykO @Audiocolor @WillRock ! @DusK @wildfire ! @Lucasonic @Tuberz McGee @~Faseeh~ ! @Bowlerhat @KingTiger @Chernabogue @jnWake ! @Jorito Please, don't forget to turn in your WIPs! If you have some reason not to send anything, just tell me about it - I'll delay your deadline, I'm fine with that Just be honest Those people, whose names are marked by exclamation mark, haven't sent anything at all (or for one of their claims). If you don't send your WIPs until September 18th, I'll cut your claim down.

Put together a teaser of some of the music on the album. Check it!
