jnWake   Judges ⚖️

Well I do have the main arrangement idea tied up at least haha so there's hope!

I've been pretty sick this week so I haven't worked much on my song. I hope I feel better today ;_;

jnWake - X-Square Rolling (Frost Walrus in Palace Ground [X]) My Beerly Beerloved (Blizzard Buffalo in Palace Ground [X]) Electric Moves & Cephalopod Grooves (Volt Kraken in Palace Ground [X])

First round songs are great. Super clean production in most of them and I'm surprised people even had the time to record vocals! If I have time I'll post more detailed impressions later but first listens were great.

Lol the style differences between X3 Doppler and Scaravich are too much. I'm mixing for X-Square this week but I have no idea how I'll mix these two tracks together!

Sent my WAV. Sorry for taking so long. Hope I wasn't the last one left

Shoot! Sorry for not responding. Tbh, I haven't begun the mix yet but I should have it by Nov. I leave it to you to decide what to do with my track.

I love this song too. Unfortunately I won't be able to enter this competition but I hope to be able to share something related soon.

If you're not blessed with perfect pitch or whatever that is called, then your only way of getting better is by practicing. Listen to songs and try to guess what notes are playing (preferably by playing along as timaeus suggests). If you practice lots you'll eventually get good at it!

Fishy's cuter.

Ah, that theme is nice. I expected to get the Scaravich. It's quite a strange tune but it's cool. I'm happy with it.

It is. I think I'll get my third pick in the drafts!

And mine, with team hopefully announced soon: 1. Volt Kraken. 2. Blizzard Wolfgang. 3. Ground Scaravich. 4. Rainy Turtloid. 5. Slash Beast.

This is a pretty Smash 64 theme that could be remixed: . I'd offer myself but I'm not sure I either fit your criteria or have time do to it haha.

Sunday is the deadline? Have been super busy so I want to plan ahead (for what lasts of this week at least haha).

I may join this. Trying to form a team right now.

I don't think I'll send you more WIPs before the final mix is ready Black_Doom. It should be relatively soon too.

I need to start finishing mine too haha.

I'm sure I posted about this somewhere in these forums but at some point I held 4 WR's (speed runs) in different stages from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze. I've lost all of them by now though haha but it was cool having them!

I'm sure I shouldn't post it here but I guess it's no wrong if I PM you!

I'll send you my WIP in a few hours or early tomorrow. I got a sudden burst of inspiration! EDIT: Or probably during the night but I swear it's coming haha.

I suck at making loud songs... I'd rather make them quiet but it's not really feasible since I don't want to mess with people's speakers!

My inspirations come mainly from prog rock/metal bands. Recently I've been very inspired by Genesis for example. Other big influences in my style are Marillion, Frost*, Symphony X, Toto and Pain of Salvation. I also have some jazz influences but I can't really point a particular band since I don't actually listen to much jazz but I've read a few books and stuff about jazz theory because I love them chords but I'm not into improvising and solos that much. When doing remixes, however, I tend to look for outside inspirations depending on the style I want to achieve. Sometimes I get inspired by other remixes, like zircon's, Willrock's and others. Other times I search for specific inspirations depending on what I want to do. For example, I listened to many western songs when doing a Paper Mario remix once!

For anybody interested I posted a WIP of my track in the project forums. Hope you enjoy it!

This looks lovely. I'll definitely buy it when it comes to Wii U.
