I guess it'd be better with a set time, I don't believe there are too many of us playing haha.

My favorite tracks are Mt. Wario and Dolphin Shoals. Both are beautiful stages. For online racing, Mario Circuit is surprisingly fun (all dat boosting) and Rainbow Road is kind of cool too, very challenging. Retro tracks are cool too, I love Toad's Turnpike and Tick Tock Clock in particular.

Best credits theme ever, feels almost like they were jamming lol.

Seriously this game is awesome. I've played so much today lol. I'm so proud of this online win haha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EOkFKgdw7U .

I expect them to allow GCN controllers for a few games. HD remakes of GCN remakes are also very obvious with that. I'm hyped lol.

It happens to me on Firefox. On Chrome it doesn't happen.

No comment on today's veteran?

Sorry if you've talked about this but do you know if it's possible to do velocity envelopes for MIDI items? Or anything similar... A volume envelope won't work for what I'm trying to do btw.

You have to leave the best parts as a surprise!

Nice preview! I'm working hard with Brostock to get my track done ASAP, I hope it'll be worth it.

Best thing about this is the image of the patent that Nintendo is supposedly infringing: http://i.imgur.com/YCEQOqz.png Look at the door. Look at the guy in the tv. Just... I can't stop laughing.

Has anyone listened to what we know of MK8's OST so far? It's incredible! I don't remember what the consensus on the album's focus was but my god MK8 deserves a track!

Yep, NNID are still a bit archaic. I still buy digital because on my country everything is more expensive physical and the US$ to my country's currency exchange benefits me

I've been a terrible member of the album so far but I swear I'm working on my mix

I'm not a huge fan of traditional jazz but I really love the chord progressions and alterations in jazz music. I've studied a bit of it just to try and insert some of that into that music but I still have a lot to learn. I do like fusion bands and jazz-inspired stuff, but early jazz and overly complicated songs bore me.

This a veeeeeery long build up. It feels a bit weird though because the intro has all these awesome pads and stuff and when the build up is finally over, the soundscape becomes so barren... I don't know, it feels like you were aiming for a different type of song before the build up. Anyway, the samples picked are mostly pretty great. Drums are very 80's! The main bass sample is a bit too static though, I'd add some modulation to make it more interesting. I like the mood of this remix but I'm not sold on the transition from the build up to the main riff of Chemical Plant.

This is pretty cool! It gets a bit crowded in some sections though, feeling a bit muddy. I'd add some delay to the E. Piano synth in 0:42, could sound nice Drums at 1:18 bother me a bit, why did you do such a strange rhytm haha. Also, the heavily detuned synth strings are very hit or miss. I don't personally enjoy them. In any case, I loved how groovy this is. Nice remix

At the beggining it sounds like a remix of Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time (especially the melody that the synth plays)! Anyway, I like the synths at the intro. Snare sound is a bit too tame though, add some more noise to it! I felt the part beggining at 0:26 was a bit repetitive, maybe you could repeat it less times? Or add more variation, not sure. By the way, is the melody there suppossed to reference the original? Nice change at 1:02. I love the bass sample, sounds very DKC2-ish. Lead is nice but the release is weird, like too sudden. Sample at 1:23 is a bit dull, I'd spice it up a bit. For example, the sounds you used at 1:55 are much more interesting. Overall, this is cool but a tad repetitive. You could attempt inserting some more natural sounds (I mean, not synths!) here and there for some variety. Drums are a bit tame in my opinion, the ride cymbal sample is barely noticeable. Nice job!

That's because Fabrication is the best song from the album. Because I say so.

I think albums are completely worth it from an artistic perspective, particularly if you try and fit some kind of concept into it. Releasing a collection of random songs doesn't seem that fulfilling to me but it still represents weeks/months/years of hard work so it's neat. From a money perspective I'm not sure. I guess it depends on the style (kind of hard to make cash on a progressive fusion metal album I guess ).

I have some Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze Speed Runs in my YouTube channel! If you're looking for truly impressive ones, you should check siglemic's Super Mario 64 runs. Those are the best and rival Super Metroid imo. Banjo Kazooie runs are cool too.

You should have eaten it.

Very cool! I don't feel like criticizing anything so sorry for not being really helpful but I really liked this remix

I'd participate! I was going to polish my two tracks anyway, so at least it'd have more purpose

Greninja is quite surprising. I wonder if they'll add a grass starter for balance. Sceptile is cool! New Zero Suit Samus is very cool too, even if they designed her a bit too perfect haha
