Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Round eight: Donkey Kong Country 1: Winky's Mines Midi Starts: 13/01/2014 Ends: Friday 24/01/2014 2PM Vote Ends: Sunday 24/01/2014 8PM Submit your remix Here when completed. 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. A modicum of originality is recommended, but not required. All competitors and voters must adhere to the rules stated within: Competition Code and Conduct * MnP Instructions 1. Slight alterations of the source are encouraged, but not required. 2. Covers and Sound Upgrades are permitted. 3. Stay relatively close to the source's mood and notation. Refer to the example tracks for reference. 4. Any genre is acceptable, so long as you can still capture the source tune's mood and a good chunk of the notation. 5. Submissions must be at a maximum of 20mb (keeping in step with ThaSauce's file size max). **I will state the voting rules at the voting stage, so as to keep the rule list here as small as possible. I'll also relax the rules on qualative statements about your own works, because frankly, it seems impossible to prevent it from happening anyways, but I would humbly suggest that you try to exercize some discretion about said comments on yours or other people's tracks.** Example Tracks: FF7_SonOfChaos, SMW_Monstrous_Turtles, Hitman_Contract_Cleaner, 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

woohooo!!...still need 2 beat the game ug.

o.O I'll compete if someone submits something to my compo Seriously tho, I'll compete either way if I find some time/energy...been working like a dog lately, but I get 3 days off starting Tuesday wooot

Alriiight, bout time too...and I still have yet to hear everyone's works

Yeah I figured that one out after messing around a bunch. Still, there are many useful applications for this software...I'll need 2 grab something more 'komplete' pun intended. Also, dat Da Copa still looks very tempting

Hmm, due date's coming up soon and not single post or submission. If anyone is interested in having the duedate postponed a few days, lemme know, if not then I'll figure something out tomorrow.

Yeah, the keyswitches were a pain to figure out how 2 use, but I think I've got it handled. Cool track, sounds professional :3

Alright...then I guess I'll have to grab something else later on that does allow me to do my own writing. This is too tempting to overlook >_<

sweet thx for the link...hopefully someone here HAS used it and can give some feedback. Maybe KVR is my best option then..

For NI: Action Strings 2 Questions: 1) is it easy to sequence with it, or is there a steep learning curve?? 2) is it possible to create your own melodies and rhythms without having to draw on the (many) existing ones?? Not that they are bad, I just like messing around with my own notation as well

oh, it req. a copy/paste into the browser. My bad, guess it wasn't broken after all. Well, I'm DLing it now and will give it a thorough listen. Thanks Fernando!

the .rar link for your tracks is broken** - but, it's good to see some references to what you're looking for. Also, totally understandable about the compensation thing. I'm still down for making some music for your project.

Great, I'll check it out and get the next round rolling asap. And thx a bunch for submitting something Trism. I digged it a lot Yeah sort of true - however, Wild Arms still doesn't garner as much love as Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Metroid, megaman, castlevania, mario, sonic etc. So it's still small fry in my books. I friggin' love Wild Arms 1 though Gonna try out Wild Arms 3 soon. 2 was pretty MEH

ahhh...too late, sorry. It looks like that Trism wins by default Trism, come on over and submit me a source tune EDIT This was already an abnormally long session and I'm thinking that the source tune is too obscure for most OCR people sadly >_< my bad.

dat wooden spoon is mine by default muahahaha!! Oi btw, there's still some time for some quick MnP love you know

yeah, this'll be interesting to see who comes on top, luckily I don't need to worry since I'm a [bonus] remix haha. This'll likely be a difficult vote =/ EDIT Also, I left an easter-egg in the PRC 260 - sorry Bundeslang, I couldn't resist >.> Oh and...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! >:3

^ Bump yeah really

I ran out of creative juice and energy, so I just used an older (but very obscure) remix of mine...Tuberz McGee would know it =p I wrote that down in the submission notes too, so yeah...I'm thinking that I'm leaning towards (Bonus) seeing as technically I didn't do anything new ><

bump reminder =D 5 days to gooo~ ...I guess I'll turn something in too, as a bonus, of course.

Oh I see, shows how informed I am on these matters =p

Having read the poem, I totally can see the inspiration. Very well done and quite touching. Nice work Coopy *sniffle*, it's the allergies, I swear T_T Nice piano work btw! (btw, what do you think of my 'Leaving Christmas' tune?)

Ohhh schnaap!! Yeah well, your face is cancelled with my very own cancel sauce!

You're cancelled
