    Mega Man X: The Grand Maverick Remix Battle 2012

    in Competitions

    Posted

    SilvernixSP (MASS Production of Sharp Scissors) - The slightly out of time stuff leaning on the backside of the beat in the beginning is cool for adding an organic feeling, though variation would make it feel more human. I can dig the blacksmith-pounding-to-make-scissors idea though, cool stuff. Man, I'm not even sure this thing HAS a tonal center. Or maybe it just has 12 :P The minimal soundscape giving way to a more aggressive soundscape is a cool idea, but you completely covered up your snare and bass with other sounds. The cymbals and hats are super loud too. Work with the panning of your instruments as well as stereo separation to clear up the center of your mix. I'm gonna suggust the WIP forum again, I'm sure lots of people will be willing to help you improve this one quite a bit

    That's some stuff I never think about, I diffitively going to look over this.

    SilvernixSP - bass is incredibly overpowering. The part that comes in at 0:40 is off tonally and rhythmically. More rhythmic splicing at 0:40. The way this is right now, The biggest thing I could tell you would be to EQ out some frequencies. Honestly, if you're not used to doing that, taking any frequencies out would help the mix I think. Make some room for a bg pad or something. You'd be surprised at how far that can take you.

    Really intereseting feedback, I'm gonna check for this when I will be back at home. That should explain a lot of why at some point, my music was not sounding the same from when I start, was wondering why.

    Drums need some work here. Soundscape is a little on the thin side too. Some areas sound too discrete with all of the instrumentation, needed some more humanization treatment.

    Oh! really, I never think to have a problem with my drums

    I don't know if I'll upload my tune tomorrow. It's just like a big draft.. I haven't had much time to work on it, and won't have much tonight either (it's my birthday tuesday and I have a supper tonight when I come back from work (where I'm at now)). So what should I do, upload an unpolished turd ? ;(

    You have to upload for 2 reason, first, I'm not an opponent do be fear off, you can easily beat me and for second, I won't accept winning by default, so upload what you got

    For MMX6, I prefer Blaze Heatnix, after it's Infinity Mijinion.

    If I have to go by game, it would be something like this:

    MMX1: Armored Armadillo (hard choice here)

    MMX2: Flame Stag (another hard choice)

    MMX3: Gravity Beetle (still another hard choice)

    MMX4: Magma Dragoon (is there a game with no hard choice)

    MMX5: Izzy Glow (cause X vs Zero din't count)

    MMX6: Blaze Heatnix

    MMX7: Stage select or Sigma 1st form (I don't like MMX7 Maverick music but I will go with Flame Hyenard)

    MMX8: Secret boss Cut Man, :lol: , Jakob Stage (same problem as MMX7 so I will go with Dark Mantis)

    Wow, thanks for the info, music theory would help a lot I'm sure of it but, I still got some difficulty will all the words in english I don't know yet, and I never study in music, I start remixing just because of the GRMRB competition on OC cause I'm a big fan of Mega Man music, well anything from MM in general but anyway.... but I find this rely interesting, It's an new hobby I got on the side, but who knows a far I can get.

    Overall I do like what you've come up with this far. If you can work on the big 3 things I mentioned above: 1) fixing key signature issues, 2) revisiting sound design choices (particularly that background synth at 0:15), and 3) building up the soundscape with more background instruments, pads, etc., then I think this has the potential to be a very fun, enjoyable remix.

    Keep working at it! You are making good progress!

    Thanks I really appreciate what you said, I'm gonna check what I can do, but there's something I was wondering, how can I find the key signature of a song and change is key. I know what the key signature are, but beside that, I know nothing and it looks like all the mix I have done so far have this big problem.

    For the second point, yea, I always got this kind of problem, like I said in a early post, I'm always switching instrument, can past more than 1 hours only searching for instruments that can fit, and finally get something, decent or just ok... but I think this problem will get solve with time and practice, I will revisit this song for fun, looking at what I can do.

    And finaly, the 3rd point, well, that was the part that I try to put some kind of background melody and fail miserably.

    I know I'm getting better and it's a relief.

Anyway, here we can take the time we want. Even if I think I got more lazy one this track... I think it's my best so far... I'm leveling up!

    Am I the only dude alive from The Skull Men? :???:

    It sure look like this... so, what's happening, are you the only one left in the team, and did someone replace Emunator in the Hard Men team?

    EDIT: Maybe you will replace Emunator and you guy's will become the Hard Skull Men... Well, I'm just saying, I don't know if Darke will agree with this

    Well, now that I'm in an official thing, I don't care about you guys anymore. *turns up nose*.

    MWAHAHA just kidding.

    But, I am working hard on my Wily Castle song, but will probably throw together a quick tune in the next two weeks for my match w/ Silv. Are we still on? does that work for you?

    Yea, I'm still on, I was working on it this week, so I don't know when it will be finish but I'm trying to do something good... well like I said I'm trying...

    You pick a team of three.

    You each go once in a three week rotation.

    What is so hard about this, guys?

    Lol, poor Drake, I did understand all the first time I read the post, It's not complicated, people are looking way to far and are missing the Big Picture.

    Haha, if people are getting all butt-hurt about stuff before the compo even starts, then I'm really looking forward to seeing all the frusty people during the Remix Gauntlet!! :)

    Wait for when prophetic start to lose... (It's a joke prophetic)
