Yeah I know full well - it always sounds perfect the first time. Then you sleep on it and go woaaahhh

That was quick. Haven't even started yet T_T

That is probably the logical conclusion T_T (or maybe the J panel scared off everyone)

And I just got shadowbanned from YouTube for daring to have political views that don't tow the line. Google needs to be broken apart - they've gone wayyy beyond their moral and legal purview as a business entity.

Can't say they're on YouTube either, considering how many YT'ers have quit due to being demonetized.

Just realized that we are remixing an OCR remixer's original piece. We've gone full circle :3

Okay I'll exchange it.

Next round is up. Put on your spooky caps, it's Howlowe'en Month thing...for lack of a better name.

Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Round 81: Crypt of the Necrodancer Stage 2-1 Midi: http://compo.thasauce.net/files/materials/MnP81_(2-1) Fungal Funk.mid Youtube: What could possibly be more terrifying than a trip down to the Crypt of the Necrodancer? For round 81 let's do the extra-spooky stage 2-1 theme. -Dex Deadline: October 16th Mon @1PM Vote Ends: October 18th Wed @ 11PM Submit your remix Here when completed. MnP ARCHIVE - made by Trism 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 Covers and Sound Upgrades are permitted. 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. If you decide to do a genre swap (i.e. symphonic to techno), make sure that the conditions of #2 are met. Submissions must be at a maximum of 20mb (keeping in step with ThaSauce's file size max). Only 1 entry per participant. Previous winner cannot participate but can submit a BONUS entry. Please don't make any comments about people's entries - including your own - until the Voting process is concluded. BONUS entries are exempt of this rule. 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)

And don't forget to find us a spooky source tune for next round :3

Honestly, most of the EQ/production problems I note that other people have, I wind up running into as well. Unless I really, really try - which is probably only for project tracks lol. That sort of stuff can take me weeks of tweaking and feedback to get it sounding great, so don't feel bad. Mastering can be a real cunt.

Eggsngaming, really love your BONUS entry. Really like the vocal samples and the bass sample. Piano was kinda low-fi, but it served - maybe a touch more reverb/delay on it? Otherwise this is a solid piece. Nice work!

Results Dex got 1st with 14 points. HoboKa and Silverpool tied for OVER9000 (AKA 2nd place) with 11 points. Dex PM me for the round 81 entry! Pick something Howlowe'en-y. We're gonna do a back-to-back Howlowe'en October!! Comments Nice participation and love the steady votes. Time for back-to-back Howlowe'een October-Month-Thing!!

Farty bass is the best bass - can't spell bass without ass Okay, I'm gonna tally all the votes.

Well, I saw "IT" today and that seemed to scare the cold right out of me. JK, just slept well and seem better. But I did see IT god that was a scary movie - really good too!

EXTENSION - aiming to get at least 3 subs so the vote is not awash. Might mean I'll have to compete. Been fighting a cold, but we'll see Deadline: September 26th Tues @ 1PM Vote Ends: September 28th Thurs @ 11PM

How do you guys find work in the field? What sort of steps have you professional recording artists taken to succeed? Someone had suggested crowdfunding to me, another a custom website featuring examples of your works. But well, I'm at a loss, really.
