I had "To the Gateway" claimed, but I think I'll let it go. Too many commitments and too little time.

Sounds like a cool project. In the first two tracks I thought the piano was pretty loud. On laptop speakers I thought I even heard the piano's reverb separately, as if the reverb itself was too loud. The piano (lead) could also use more humanization, each note was being hammered down which doesn't leave a lot of room for expression and takes away the power the loudest notes in the lead could have. Sanguine Moonblossom has a cool atmosphere, and the harpsichord in the bed of strings & choir worked for me (I don't think I've heard something exactly like that before). A Soldier With A Grudge had a super cool groove as well, I really liked the brass melody jumping around, "jumpy" intervals don't often work so well in melodies but I think these were good, especially since the riff beneath it has an usually large interval. Or something, like I knew what I was talking about with theory and stuff, but in any case, it was really cool. I also liked that the arrangement and mix was relatively sparse, everything had a good place and nice room to operate.

I hereby explicitly state that I allow OCR to monetize my mixes on Youtube.

I've made some progress, I think I'm close to getting the structure down. Hoping to do some more work next week.

That was pretty solid, and it's always good to see VVVVVV getting some coverage. My ears could've used some variation on the lead guitar sound over time. I definitely appreciated the melodica!

Haha, this sounds really cool. More Shovel Knight is always welcome. I'm also impressed and appreciative of trying out some new things with the format.

I expected some out of this world guitar riff to rock me stupid or melt my face, but it never happened.
I was just re-reading this and I can't help putting a note here that @Tuberz McGee definitely delivered.

My track didn't pass the panel, but it's close and I got good feedback. @Ivan Hakštok, I'm wondering how long I might have to rework it?

Thanks for sharing! I like following homebrew stuff so I appreciate.

I'm super-appreciative of this being a solo-guitar arrangement. It's quite simple (perhaps deceptively) but it certainly holds together without bells and whistles. Very human, makes me want to pick up the acoustic!
-
Didn't get much more done yet, unfortunately. I'll try to hammer down a complete structure and fill it in after that.

I've got a little bit done, but I think I'll need at least a week more. @AbsoluteZero that's looking quite good to me!

Here's the notes that apparently fell through the cracks (though the write-up is now quite funny):
"This summer our family has been spotting flowers, which is what this song is about. The lyrics consist of a list of Finnish wild flowers. The arrangement was done together with Birgitta Susi, who sings. We picked some tunes we both liked from ilomilo as sources. She thought Esther might like hearing a child's voice in the song, so there's the daughter and me talking a bit about the flowers in the background."
There was a bit in the call-out e-mail about reaching out to artists who weren't exactly obvious choices. I never figured I was one of them! I wouldn't say this was out of my comfort zone but I guess it's different from my previous submissions. Big part of course is that it was co-arranged with Birgitta; we are long-time collaborators. It's great to have the album out!

I used to (mostly) run some campaigns, playing the Middle-Earth Role Playing Game, and a Finnish RPG system Rapier/Elhendil that was all about elves. In retrospect I really sucked as a DM but I think we all had some fun. I've never played tabletop RPG sessions that were any good or if they were, lasted more than 1-2 sessions. Oh well. I still like to read rulebooks and campaign materials and stuff every now and then. It'd be cool to get to play Ars Magica for instance, and then there's the Glorantha setting, which sounds really good (gotta play King of Dragon Pass sometime). I did have RuneQuest but I don't think we ever played that one. I don't think I understood how cool it was back in the day either. It was the first RPG I had but it was too complicated for the young me and I got something more basic to get started with. Never played D&D!
Anyone played over Skype or something?

I'm extra happy to see this posted since I did indeed put this together quite quickly, and wasn't sure if I would be able to pass the bar with such little work.
Glad you guys dug the aesthetic! I'm a little embarrassed to be complimented on the drum writing though. Like I mentioned (but should've perhaps emphasized more), they're stock Renoise drum breaks; I did splice them up a little and layer them here and there but can't claim I really wrote the parts.. I usually spend an eternity writing the drum parts so it was a very efficient shortcut in my case. edit: oh and yay first ReMix for a system!

To be clear, you are talking about Frost Walrus?
Yup.

The only bits of information mission on MB are which Frost Walrus song is used and which Final Weapon stage is used.
We used both for Rolling and the 2nd stage theme for the others.

Okay, finish your Syreen mix then!

I'd actually throw in strongly for Mystic Quest, even though it's not a "mainline" Final Fantasy game (it's based more closely on the SaGa series), and it's not done by Uematsu. But it has a fantastic and underrated rock-driven soundtrack.
Yeah, if there was a FFMQ project I would feel the need to be a part of it (to my own peril).
