@HoboKa Thanks! That's on me for not making a mix more faithful to the source tune. I guess I got a little caught up in it and lost sight of the goal. But at least I learned an important lesson AND had fun (which doesn't happen very often).
I am grateful to have a place to do these kinds of exercises, and I've definitely gotten some mileage out of it, so thanks for hosting!

Ooh boy, those polyrhythms are throwing me for a loop, but I'm loving what I'm hearing. I' really feeling that 3/4 groove for the most part.
I also told myself after the previous round I would mix things up and go with synth sounds only, but I don't think that'd quite work for this. 

Congrats Chalis! And great job everyone, I enjoyed listening to all the entries and people's interpretations of such a short theme.

I just uploaded my entry. I was in the zone yesterday and the day before, and it's going to be a busy next couple of days with Memorial Day just around the corner, so it's done and sent!

Thanks for the suggestion! I've got it on Soundcloud here. Reaper's being a bit funny in its labeling of renders and I grabbed the wrong one after listening to the track I wanted to upload. It should sound better. XD

Got-dangit, I just realized I uploaded the wrong mp3. 
Regardless, I'll be looking forward to the announcement of the winner, as well as the next source tune. I've missed these contests.

Well, I got my vote in this evening. Good look guys!

I'm really glad we've got people hopping on board this round! Now that I'm done with school, I really want to focus on music production, especially these competitions, but other responsibilities may call me away from time to time. I had fun working on this, especially since I wasn't able to get good ideas going for other bonus mixes.

I'm glad you're all enjoying it! My bonus mix is coming along nicely, too, and I hope to wrap it up in the next day or so.

I've been a fan from the get-go, thankfully. As I said earlier, I didn't have any consoles growing up, so the Wii was my first at-home experience. The Wii's my gateway drug.  It wasn't until after that I delved into the other games, and I enjoy playing them as well. In fact, I got Axiom Verge for Christmas for the Switch, and that's an homage to Super Metroid if I ever saw one, but it still is its own game and a lot of fun.
I won't lie, I had an emotional wave hit me when I saw the logo for Metroid Prime 4 at E3 this passed year. That's another reason I picked this tune, because of my Metroid Prime Fever.
My body is ready.
...
Probably not.

I've been hearing some good things about Superior Drummer 2, and I was looking at EZ Drummer, they both sound good. I wish the MIDI packs were compatible with other software, because I was going to get some of those while they were on sale. I've got the Scarbee Bass, so I'll need to take a look at that, it sounds real nice.

Ah crud, I thought the vote ended today. XD Sorry about that, I got wrapped up in work. Good round, Trism and Silverpool, I really enjoyed your interpretations. Trism, what'd you use for the drums and bass? The tone and groove sound real nice and tight.

Thanks for the extension! I was hoping to finish up my entry yesterday, but Life happens. Mine will be a bit more on the... darker side... and might stray a bit from the original feel, but I bet you'll enjoy it.

I hope to get it in tonight. I've got to play catch-up on schoolwork because the site was down for a couple days. Also, I'm sorry to say I couldn't get a bonus mix in: I thought I had a scheduled save for my DAW projects and it closed on me, but I forgot I changed the save settings, so I lost almost all my work. XD
Good luck, everyone!

Thanks, everyone! These contests are always a lot of fun, and it's been a great way to work on various aspects of music and I enjoy it quite a bit. Hope you like the next source tune!

Yeah, I was planning to vote yesterday, but work and school had other plans. I'm going to get it in today.
EDIT: Got my vote in. Good luck everyone!
 

The MIDI is set at 350 in 2/2, so technically it's 175 in 4/4, but I slowed it down a bit regardless; it's goes by like a blip and it's over. XD

Hey guys, it's been a while. XD I've got about a week before my online Summer classes start, so I'm going to try to do a simple arrangement, just to at lest keep myself busy and have a little bit of fun. I think I'm going to do an orchestral arrangement, to get a better feel for my software and to improve my workflow; I've gotten quite a bit of experience working on entries for these competitions, and they're great fun! I can't wait to hear what other people have planned.

I'm very close to finishing my bonus mix, as well. I hope to have it up tomorrow evening. The semester just started up this week and I no matter how much I would like to, I can't neglect my homework.
