What Moseph said. Selling arrangements of other music is about impossible, since you have to license the music. (Pretty sure you have to pay to license music) xD Originals are fine... if you couldn't sell originals, then there would be no music market in existence.

Stop bitching about story and her status as a robot vs. weak woman. It's just a video game. Don't like it, don't play it; should be simple as that. EDIT: IT'S JUST A VIDEO GAME. EDIT 2: IT'S JUST A VIDEO GAME.

That's like eating ice cream and saying protesting dairy products. xD

I thought the "my" was implied. My bad.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Hyadain's Japanese mario remix... that's like the first thing that comes to mind.

What? Did you even read anything zikon said? Also, zikon, see if anything's wrong with your MIDI controller sustain pedal, as in try other samplers and synths and see if it works fine. If not, your pedal/keyboard is bwoken.

Your best bet is to just clone the instrument like said before.

I wouldn't say that until... well, never, because as I get older, so does he. (aka as I get better so does he, he has a lot of SICK stuff no one on OCR has ever seen, like with Symphonic Orchestra and Quantum Leap RA)

Uh... what?

Can you please link to the massive images instead of posting them here? I find it difficult to navigate this thread page. X_X

I like the drums and the groove. Not liking the really off rhythm and (sometimes) off key koto/harp thing at 1:00. 1:24 Synths are pretty 90's techno generic-ish... 1:49 Same problem. The lead synth doesn't pack any punch and sounds like a general MIDI soundfont orchestral hit. I'm not gonna comment on anything else till you fix those problems, because they're in a lot of the mix. Arrangement's pretty cool, but whenever you have a chorus or any section with a beat and a main melody you're neglecting to give it chords, which makes it sound empty and like it's an intro rather than a main part.

Sheet music was added after Zircon made his opinion, though.

I was surprised my entry got so much praise, emu gave me the log and I was like "Wow i never realized so many people would be impressed with a half ass half hourly done techno tune" thanks for the comments guys XD

what is different about these two pictures, a cookie to anyone who can answer. also HAppy BIRTHDAY

ridley doesn't die shut up n00b But for all siwiusness, the people who make metroid games have no idea what the word "death" means unless it has to do with samus's creepy ways of dying. (visor cracking, blood filling screen, visual heart x ray, suit exploding, etc.)

That looks more like a walnut than brains.

There's only one other thing I can think of that would be described as a "space brain thing" and that's a Metroid... I've never heard anyone refer to Metroids as giant space brains. And Mother Brain dies in Super Metroid there's no way she's back in Other M. D:

The synths are a bit cheesy and old-sounding. Needs more more modulation/filtering/vibrato/LFO. Sounds like a 90's techno song, which isn't a bad thing, because you pull it off quite nicely. Just personally wish the synths were a bit more elegant or aggressive. I've heard a lot of your previous stuff, I know you can do better. Arrangement's nice, as all of your usual work, but I'd like to see some more dominant chords. Maybe make the pad a bit brighter/colder?

I agree on the Paper Mario thing. It also sounds a bit like the toy galaxy in mario galaxy 1 and the Toad Brigade theme. xD

This ^^^ I didn't even play Super Metroid and I know what Mother Brain is. Jeez.

I'd sure like to see Zircon rethink his opinion on this because it now offers music notation viewing.

I'm not an avid chiptune maker/listener, so I just whipped up a quick ten second tune that I originally wrote to try out the Kontakt Player. I just rewrote the melody and bassline using peach and triforce, and wrote the arp in peach. So yes, Txai is most likely right on this one given I have no experience in chiptune sims. I just wanted to try out the drum samples he posted. xD

If you're gonna headshot someone why not use the Ambassador?

Wasn't jokin, actually- I purchased a new audio interface and it came with Guitar Rig 4 Pro. I'm not that great at guitar yet, but the amp software makes me sound better than I really am which has caused me to practice a LOT more often. Thanks for the response, now I know it's not hopeless. xD Because I heard that sick Mortal Kombat remix from you guys I'm actually not disappointed anymore.

Here's an example of what you can do with Txai's samples just for fun: Used with Peach and Triforce NES VST's.
