Hey, you've come close to winning several times, so I'd say keep on doing what you do, and just keep these 2 things in mind: mood and energy being preserved. The notation and genre are negotiable within reason. ...and being consistent with my voting and comments has proven to be very challenging. Back to the topic at hand, I think you have a lot of potential Supercoolmike, and there have been times (such as Watergoddess Mitula's full version) where you did shine. ^ And this.

been playing it on and off - it's actually not too bad

Can't do worse than XIII

HOLY shit this is epic!! So much nostalgic sweetness. Vocals are indeed pushed back a bit too much, but I don't mind the other elements personally.

yeah, LJN get a semi-pass for me, cuz of this game alone rofl. Hard as sin, but fun as heck I know right?? EDIT also, even AVGN admitted that LJN did well with Maximum Carnage, in his last christmas wish-list review, I think.

Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Round 26: Maximum Carnage - Boss 1 (Sega) Are you ready to rock ?!!!! Here is some more Snes music from my childhood: Maximum Carnage. -gercr Midi Deadline: Nov. 30 @ 2PM Sunday Vote Ends: Dec. 2 @ 8PM Tuesday Submit your remix Here when completed. **If you have technical difficulty with account activation at ThaSauce, please contact Ramaniscence via pm** 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) - Certain sad or moody source tunes don't have drums or percussion for a reason. So keeping it that way may be the easiest way to retain much of the original feel, such as and

My favourite track of Parasite Eve!! This is a sick cover man, makes me spine tingle!!

http://www.mediafire.com/listen/deu048hukywq832/EWJ_WhipHead_VerA2.mp3 ^ Update 2...sorry evktalo, this isn't my best work, but I feel kinda stumped here, ending is kinda cop-out-ish. Maybe throw me in as a Bonus or something - I'm kinda spent on this one

Results gercr got 1st place with 9 points HoboKa got 2nd with 8 points. supercoolmike got 3rd with 7 points gercr, please pick the source tune for round 26. Comments: Fairly decent turn-out - thought I would be by myself at first, so it's good to see that gercr and supercoolmike found time to submit something. Thanks guys!!

Only 2 votes in and 1d 5h to go for the voting stage =/ oh btw, forgot to mention to leave the 3rd spot empty if you submitted a remix for this round.

Thanks, I'll probably need it - getting the voting stage set up right now!

Sweet! Less than 1 day to go for other people to submit something

Happy BIRTHDAIIIYY timaes222!!

Just a reminder - 3 days to go before the deadline.

I'll see if I can get #3 to work. Don't worry, I'll get into the B-part for the very upcoming segment, I know I delayed it pretty long. Hopefully that can circumvent the issue for #2. Yeah, lots of balance work needing to be done - I can probably manage those layers once I tweak everything. The loudness issue will definitely be fixed in either this or the next update. Thanks for the feedback guys!

Sweet! I look forward to that!

True to my word, I submitted something and will be competing this time around. Let's see what you guys are made of please, anyone I don't want to be alone q.q Also, looking forward to that Bonus DusK - you can always submit it after the due date as well, if things don't work out, just send me a pm if that happens! Thanks!!

In that case, here it is http://www.mediafire.com/listen/bt7qia91a7v8o7q/EWJ_WhipHead_VerA1.mp3 EDIT If you had downloaded it yesterday, it was the wrong version - sorry about that! It is now the correct link. note: -I think I'm going to add another minute, so it's not completed compositionally and the transitions may be pretty rough at parts.

So I got a pretty well-developed WIP, is it ok if I sub it here, or should I use pm?

Yeah...I lost the .flp for my SoundCloud version. Very disappointed about that x_x - anyway, I'm making do with what I have for the PRC version, mixing things around and fiddling around with other moods and interesting things that timaeus222 mentioned.

No this is my usual style. It's not everyone's cup of tea, as made abundantly clear here. Thanks for the input

"Sounds kinda 80's. The harmonies and groove feel kind of... generic and plain to me. I hear a lot of fifths and fourths, and almost a techno-ish vibe (O_O)" Ouch. Shot fired. What's wrong with techno? I found the other feedback more or less useful though, particularly the production stuff.
