HoboKa

Major update to album...May as well put it up here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZwTK-5uxS0 https://hoboka1.bandcamp.com/album/cyborg-hobo-cavemen-v2 ?

Was thinking of combining DKC3 with the Fusion theme. But I'm a bit torn on that, b/c it's outside of the compo's rules. So I might do a YouTube "Water themed" montage later. I just don't see a good connection between Sonic 3 Chrome Gadget and Fusion Water Area. Maybe there is a way to combine them, but it'd probably have to be an EDM tune of some form. Edit Also, thanks for humoring me and listening to my maudlin display. I'll try to keep my chin up for the rest of the year and not burden the chat with my bullshit. U da best

Source: This ReMix was an attempt to be included in OCR's FInal Fantasy 6 Tribute Album...but ah...the first version of this remix kinda sucked ass. Then I remade it in 2015...finally got around to sharing it here lol. This particular remix evolves considerably, so if you get bored, skip to 1:53. Thanks!

And I had a panic attack and re-installed/resub'd my E/W Cloud. I'll hoboska-busk later, possibly much sooner than you'd think with the whole Ukrainian situation and possibility of WW3.

Welp, I'm stoked for that Fusion source tune at least. Just gonna warn you guys that I've decided to not renew my Composer Cloud East/West Play and am going to be fiddling about with other orchestral libraries like VSCO 2 and stuff. Might grab some newer IK Multimedia stuff, idk. E/W Play is just too janky (usually post-render, which makes it even more frustrating!) on my current PC build and/or DAW to justify spending $25 CAD a month, whilst I'm on Disability Benefits ha. Poor Hobo-Itis. Knock on wood that I don't actually become my name-sake. Maybe I'll change my name to HoboSka and start buskin' around.

Source: Made this one for the NG Neo Geo Jam back in 2020, which got me 5th place. Not too shabby considering there was dozens if not near to a hundred others participating. If I was one to boast, that is. Hardy har.

Submitted this to OLR a while back, but I figured it's still worth sharing as it is both romantic and cheesy. Perfect for Valentine's Day! (You need to be logged in to YT to see it, as it has some naughty lyrics, so I decided to Age-Restrict it ?) Sources: Red + Green Brinstar, Super Metroid. EDIT Short Story Time: I submitted this collab-mix to OLR with my spoof alias Hobokrapp. The artist I collaborated with wanted to go by his own spoof alias: 'D-Pain'. Unfortunately he didn't register that alias to OverLooked Remix and I foolishly told OLR staff his regular ReMixer handle. More miscommunications abound, lead to his regular ReMixer name being posted. Yeah, he wasn't too happy about that. But NOW, I will do my best to use his Spoof Mixer Alias... Besides, "D-Pain" is quite apropos.

One man's practice material is another's OST wet-dream. Be proud of your work man. Don't wait to your 30's and realize how much you undersold yourself. Been there, done that. Lot of regrets. Though maybe I am being too pushy on the "monetization" side of things. Nevertheless, you should still use a service like Songsecure to make sure your ass is covered, just in case you do want to use your "practice" material for a game music, media or Spotify, etc. A lot of bad actors out there looking to use people's music w/out consent. It makes sense to AT LEAST have your ass covered in some way. Take it from this paranoid neck beard. Moving on... Wow, Bundeslang, NickC and I should get 3 wooden spoons apiece. Or maybe 3 wooden sporks. Congrats at @HarlemHeat360 ...and I'll at least see you guys next year for the free-round shtuff. Might hop in for a regular round or two, we'll see. Have a good 2022, ReMixer folks!

Aight, thanks for the updoot on that new 'unofficial' rule. I'll take that into consideration. Dude, I ALWAYS felt that nagging feeling of "unethicality" in throwing one's own hat in* - IF, like you said - wasn't to make sure the round would have a 3-entrant Voter Bonus. But sometimes you gotta ignore that Mini-Angel dikfuk and just have fun with the rest of the guys and gals. It's not like it's a guaranteed victory. Assuming people aren't trying to butter you up. I'd hope that the other voters would have that moral integrity anyways. Well, if you say so on the 'practice' thing - your practice material is pretty bad ass. UwU

Eh, that's fine. Just run me over. With a giant OLR Cake truck. I'll make YTP sound-clips with my last breath. IT BURNS MAMA LUIGI!! BTW, your Bounty Hunters album is epic. It's a damn shame it didn't get submitted, in time. Sorry about jumping the gun and saying it was 'voting time'...my bad. Erm, maybe next time, do a round extension before the last hour if you wanna squeeze something in. Just a suggestion Bimmy. I'm about 14:05* into your Bounty Hunters album and am continuing to listen well after I finish writing this, probably to the end. Your 'Bounty Hunters' Album has really got me hooked man. It has a very awesome modern indie game vibe, with hints of Metroid Prime, AM2R, Worms Armageddon, Metal Gear (the more ambient parts), S.T.A.L.K.E.R., F.E.A.R., Homeworld and other stuff. Also, the percussive instruments are surprisingly good quality - same with the drones, basses and atmospheric pads. You ought to sell this soundtrack on Unity or Unreal Storefronts (after refining some of the cheesier elements), this shit is LIT. 10/10. Edit I listened to the whole thing. I suggest cutting out the EDM/DnB tracks in the latter half and combining those with some other album of a similar vein, as they detract from the pro metroidy soundscape you had going on before. Otherwise, I think you should slap the first half into your portfolio or a website...or as an asset pack/bandcamp album. Up to you ofc, as it's your body of work. Good stuff!!

Voted!!? D'oh!! I forgot to mention someone in my vote. I'll leave a comment on this thread once the round finishes up. Didn't want to fudge things up in the Admin side of things, because the back-end is still really un-intuitive for that sorta thing. Plus @TheVideoGamer would murder me if I messed his round up by accident lol. Edit 1 BTW The Voting Stage is up. Don't wanna go around TVG's helmet and make the actual post, but yea, you guys know the drill, get voting!! ? Edit 2 (Reminder: you can't vote for yourself!)

Remix of The Giant's Theme for Majora's Mask. Pretty conservative, but added in some unique SFX at the start, a brass line for the choir part and a "Giant's Song" outtro to it. Hope you guys dig it! (No comments from the Compo: ThaSauce people until mnp130 is over!! =p)

Er same with me. May as well share it there now too lmao.

Ooo, oo can I get a wooden spork? edited out the last rambling bit, cuz it made 0 sense.

Submitted and accidentally deleted the project file when I was getting rid of my FLP Score files since I used 2 midis**. Kinda poetic when you consider the source tune. C'est la vie. This'll be one helluva round by the looks of things. Good luck everybody!

Voted.

Hope my comment in your Bandcamp is useful* and not too derp. Well worth the purchase. Cheers d00d!

do NOT drink it on the regular...guess I formed some bad habits when the 'plandemic' hit. Oy vei. 16 Bars huh? I'll mull it over Sir Naseton.

For shame. Oh well, I'll give the rest of your Metroid Organs Video that watch, since I put it on hold. Got side-tracked by ADHD and illness; thanks for reminding me. ?

Sorry, was feeling very ill, borderline deathly ill (EDIT - but if I was extremely ill I probably would've NOT posted at all lmfao). Probably was due to bubble tea and too many artificial sweeteners over a long course of time. Kidneys and bladder were just about ready to go on strike lol. So I cut that processed crap out and feel considerably better, but still a bit cruddy. Doubt it's Sepsis, cuz I don't have coldsweats or high fever lmao. As for the FL thingy...I might well have to wait a month. Hope it turns out well for you guys. ?

Properly Posted this time!! For keeping in step with the Forum Rules. God damn...I gotta lay off the caffeine T_T Sources: Arrival, Crateria B, Statue Room. Removed other links, to keep in step with rules. ?

@NaseI won't be able to get back to you on that RN, been feeling pretty off, mentally and physically. It's one of those TMI situations so I can't rly get into it (again...), but I swear to god if it's Sepsis, I'm gonna puke. I am so DONE with antibiotics. I just want to die. (edit 2) Well, managed to take a peak and realized I'm running with out-dated version of FL Studio 20. Might be a while. Also there is the issue of me needing to update FL Studio. Got a big ass project in the works, spanning multiple FLP's, so it's a lot to put on the line there. Didn't think of that before hopping in.

Kinda rusty at original works, but might give it a shot. Legacy FL stuff right? IDK why i posted here when you PM'd me, but might as well show my support here too. Haven't had my caffiene dose yet, so brain go brrrrr EDIT Finally sat down to read the first blurb. Jebus, some days are better than others for me I guess. ADD maybe. I like the idea of passing around a partially made FLP and adding small snippets to it like hot-potato on crack. Sounds like a blast ?

Submitted my Metroid PINGAS into the round. No YTP soundfiles were used...this time. Feels good to be back in the zone baby. EDIT Do a remix of Guile's Theme!! Everything goes with it!! (Holy crap...11 years old?? Where has the time gone)

You guys really gotta check this Organ-tastic Montage of Metroid sexiness. @Woody mCdid an amazing job, so mad props
