This is acceptable XD Great job Mr Plane...now go fly off and provide that other awesome track you're working on! D:

I've tried not to turn anyone down from wanting to provide a track on the album and so far i've been amazed at what can be achieved with a bit of flexibility and giving the artist plenty of freedom with what they want to do. There has been an excellent turnout and I truly hope you'll all work with me to get this album finished in time for the anniversary. I'm not too worried yet but as each month goes by I feel even more uneasy In regards to you rexxz the quality of your music is superb and if you're really serious about providing a track(s) to the album then that's great! We shall discuss it further and see what you can offer

Well i've been thinking of a few...let me know what you think! "The rise of a hero" "Galactic protector" "Harmony of a hunter" "Harmony of the hunter" Yeah those are what I could come up with over the past few days.

There is support for these tracks, we would love a bit more but right now my focus is on getting the existing tracks completed. Once we have a fair few done, we can move forward to try and get as many tracks as we can before the cut off date.

Very kind of you to offer! I've added you to Skype to discuss it further.

With all this organising, i've completely forgotten to give this album a name. I'm looking for suggestions. DJPretzel suggested 'Suit up' and that's the only consideration i've got right now from what i've heard. Any suggestions, feel free to post them here

Thanks for the update, it's not the easiest of tracks. Any problems, let me know and we can discuss them!

Well guys! We've reached our first deadline and overall it's been hugely successful. Just three tracks were unable to meet their deadlines, so people are now free to check those out and take them if they so wish (anything in purple). The standard la for this album have really impressed me. There has been some truly dedicated people and I'm very impressed with the outcome so far. May it continue!

Hey guys just a further update. I'm hoping to finalise the list of tracks for this album at some point this month. We still have no takers on Metroid Prime 2's soundtrack, it'd be great if we had some support for the soundtrack. If anyone has any suggestions for tracks from that game or can take any on, please let me know. I'm also considering a theme to finish the album on called "What's past is prologue" and this is going to be the theme from the Metroid: Other M live action commercial. There's a big demand for this track and I feel it would tie off the album very nicely. Here's the commercial: Here's a fan made version: Is there anyone that can create this theme as close to the original as possible with perhaps a little creativity to make it into a fuller song? Let's see some ideas flow

I'm currently experiencing some problems with my laptop and am going to be buying a new pc. So replies may be slow via email and here. Please continue on with tracks and send any updates you have via email attachment. Thanks!

That's fine, I shall update the list. Can I please request that you send me your e-mail address via youtube or pm on OCR as I do not have it on my list for some reason.

Just get the thing to me and in the best quality you can manage! That's all that can be asked of you really =P Keep up the good work!

Hey guys! I'm proud to announce that we have Grant Henry from Metroid Metal on board, this is amazing. We've also had a very kind offer from Aaron Marshall who has offered to master the album for us. I've also been speaking with the University of Maryland Gamer Symphony Orchestra to provide a performance but unfortunately it'll probably be ready after the project is finished, but who knows what the future holds. For now, we have a lot of support and i'd like to thank everyone who has sent in WiP's already, we've had a lot of passion on this project so far. Aaron Marshall has kindly offered to master the album for us and has given instructions to all members on the project on specifications in order to effectively master this album. They are outlined on the first post so please check those out.

It has plenty of themes if you listen closely enough I hope someone picks up Sanctury Fortress too, it'd be great if someone could cover it.

Sure thing, but if it's just tenative then I should probably just keep it blank, because someone might come along who definately wants it. But sure, i'll keep you in mind.

I hope you'll be a great addition to the album. Thanks for getting back to me on it The list is merely suggestions but it's grown/shrunk depending on what fits and what was suitable. I think we're about three quarters there...I just need to see some more Fusion, Metroid Prime 2 and Other M love before I decide on a final list. I want to ensure these games get covered nicely.

I did consider it but my focus is trying to get a wide range of people covering as many themes as possible. Perhaps once we have a final list of songs that have been taken, people can remix them also. More Metroid music in the world can only be a good thing! I'm really quite amazed at how many people have decided to go for this, it means a lot! Thanks guys!

Absolutely! But you did reach it first, in the interest of fairness.. I propose a fight to the death! Or, if you can't produce something by the WiP end date (February 28th), Overcoat gets it.

I think considering you confirmed it first, it should be you that decides what happens. I was talking to Overcoat last night and suggested he could work on a couple of other tracks instead. Work on Kanden for now and then we can decide what happens after that, is my advice.

Eh, do you really think the theme in question is even that memorable and recognisable? =P Those ambient sounding themes are really just beeps. Consider another track possibly.

It's taken, however we'll see what happens. How do you feel about possibly taking on the queen battle?

Wow you sure? I'm expecting big things for this one dude =P

GAH! I thought I already put a reserve on this one.. someone was talking to me last night about doing this one, really sorry. Is there another track you'd like?

I personally feel Thardus isn't as popular as the ones i've already listed, unless someone else thinks otherwise I shall leave it out for now. I've made some changes to the Fusion and Other M suggestions. I've reserved Brinstar for you, and soon I will be asking for WiP's from everyone to see who is able. I'll be fair..no WiP, someone else can take it over.

Please let us move on from this pointless bickering and remember why we're posting here please! Thanks! Aries if you're on for Artifact Temple then consider it reserved. I'm sure you can incorporate a bit of Chozo Ruins into it without causing much of a fuss I like the idea! I am guessing it will mostly be Artifact Temple though right? Neblix I can't believe I didn't even think of Rundas sooner! That's an excellent suggestion I shall add it to the list at once! Do you have any way I can contact you via messenger and e-mail? An updated list can now be found on the first page of this thread and will be updated as new tracks are suggested and reserved.
