Rosalina's moves are crazy. It'll probably be a very cool character to use.

Generating Interest - Mario Kart ReMix Album
jnWake replied to Garrett Williamson's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
Maybe this could just be focused on the first 4 MK games and then if it goes well a second part covering the other 4 can be done? I don't know, it'd solve the issues some people habe with the idea sofar... -
I have a very cool idea for this but I haven't even had time to begin... What is the cutoff date to apply? Other than December 2014

Generating Interest - Mario Kart ReMix Album
jnWake replied to Garrett Williamson's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
Yeah, I agree. Besides, this is like the only chance all the Mario Kart games will get some love. For example, OCR here has mixes only from SNES, N64 and DS versions, having only 10 mixes and the last one was posted on 2011! SkyRider's post makes me wonder though... How could we bend the idea so that Menu tracks and other tracks can make it in? There are some nice non-track tunes in the games. -
Generating Interest - Mario Kart ReMix Album
jnWake replied to Garrett Williamson's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
My earlier idea also implied 4 tracks per game as each game only introduces 4 new cups (at least N64, GCN and Wii versions). 32 tracks is quite manageable I believe. And tracks could be medleys of cup tracks or whatever the mixer wants to do! -
NEW JUDGES & WORKSHOP MOD! Congratulations are in order!
jnWake replied to DarkeSword's topic in General Discussion
Nice! As workshop mod I think XPRT has the obligation to add a sax solo to every song posted in that forum! (I'm kidding of course, I have already bothered him too much with guest playing!) -
Generating Interest - Mario Kart ReMix Album
jnWake replied to Garrett Williamson's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
I like the idea. Maybe remix 1 theme from each cup from each game? So disc Mushroom Cup has one remix from each Kart game from a Mushroom Cup track. Only thing that worries me is leaving out some cool themes because of that -
Mixing needs some more work. Drums and rhytm guitar completely drown the rest of the instruments. Cymbals for example are very loud. The first section (Ryoshima) sounds very muddy, I can barely identify what the rhytm guitar is playing. Strings are completely drowned in that section by the way. Flute in 0:42 plays a wrong note! I'm not sure I like the lead tone. I think it would sound better with a bit of a softer tone, this one is too agressive and doesn't blend that well with the flute. The solo also sounds a bit dirty, but I believe that is more because of the mixing rather than the playing. Arrangement is good, the blend of the different themes is seamless and you picked many of Okami's best themes. The switch to Reset is very good! With better mixing this would be a pretty good song. Try to balance the rhytm sections better and give some space for the leads to shine! Also, the change to clean guitars in the ending is great. In fact, I'd love it if you inserted more of this type of changes into the rest of the song

wip Mother 3 Love Theme Orchestrated
jnWake replied to pokemoneinstein's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
It sounds promising, but the volume balance is pretty off right now. In the intro I can barely hear the low piano notes, and the rest of the instruments that come later are also quite low. Panning in the strings is kind of weird too. So far it is conservative but that theme is so beautiful that I don't mind that at all! Good job so far and I look forward to a more complete version! -

There is some great music in Mario Kart games. Maybe people could suggest possible themes to remix? I personally love Rainbow Road (SNES) and Toad's Turnpike (N64). Mario Circuit (SNES) is cool too but the Brawl remix is so perfect haha. -
Oh sure but I meant you don't have to define them separately so you can save some time
-
Hahaha it's so funny when people hype themselves and then get angry. The bramble stage in the footage looked cool and I loved the Retro teasing. Someday we'll know if they have 1 or 2 teams!

How often do you write new music?
jnWake replied to AngelCityOutlaw's topic in Music Composition & Production
Same for me. Last couple weeks I've been very unproductive music-wise. -
The picture is pretty cool, it's the pose he makes when the moon falls so the assist trophy could be quite cool.

One thing I've always wanted to post here... About envelopes. Pressing V will open/close the volume envelope of the current active track. Same works for the pan envelope by pressing P, so you don't have to spend time creating functions for that

I'd upload stuff there but for some reason it doesn't like me and my uploads fail

Tropes vs. Women / #GamerGate Conspiracies
jnWake replied to Brandon Strader's topic in General Discussion
This video didn't provide much material for discussion other than "this example is bad" anyway. -
It's true that reviewers give a lot of 10/10 nowadays, but I think that this time it's for real! I don't think that Eurogamer gives that many 10/10s though. Also, that Mario&Sonic soundtrack is sick. The Buoy Base remix is incredible.

Happy palpable day sounds so wrong in spanish.
-
Last Story is cool. I mean, the plot is meh but the battle system is awesome! Music is good too.
-
It also seems we'll get free trials every time a new sport is released so... just go for it!
-
I can't believe they managed to make Marth look even "girlier".

Happy b-day and congrats on the mixpost!
