PRC388 - Arrival of the Anubis (Jet Force Gemini)
TheVideoGamer replied to Bundeslang's topic in Competitions
Oh wow. This is a really good pick. Sadly it's a nice tune, but this one looks difficult to arrange. Sorry folks, i'll sit this one out. Expect me to vote, though. -
Looks like Ronald Poe is absent. If he fails to send me entries by the next 2 hours. Next round goes up without him.
-
And it is over! Our entries included a Submission from Ronald Poe Considering he is the only one, who has participated: Ronald Poe is the winner by default for SPIN THE WHEEL 3! Congratulations Ronald Poe! Since you won by default, you get to decide 6 games that can go into the wheel, one for each system. Just to clarify it's 1 game, per system, not 6 games for one system! One for each system listed below. Before you submit your games you must follow these rules: Do not submit a game that is already in the wheel. Try and go for games that haven't as many remixes Make sure it's re-mixable, but of course it will be anyways lol. Make sure the games you pick, have over 5 tracks long at least 30 seconds or more. I cannot accept games, that don't contain music or a sufficient number of tracks. It's customary to provide me a link to the soundtrack, weather it be YouTube, Dailymotion or whatever. If not, then i will. Please PM me the games, i want this to be private. List the choice of games by the name of the system. So if it was X-Men, that would be classed as a Sega Genesis game and would be placed under that heading. It's also optional to list the composer, to help with the info. What i need is essentially one game from each system listed below. I want these entries by next week Friday 15th February! Once you have sent the me the games, next round goes up ASAP. I will review the choice of games to make sure they are acceptable. Below is a list of games, currently in the wheel. When your games have been chosen, expect to see a couple of games be swapped, for the next compo, which is on the Friday 15th of February. This will be highlighted in colour (Or colours depending if there is multiple winners). The 6 video game systems are as follows: NES SNES Sega Genesis PS1 Arcade PC Current games in the wheel (This will change as i receive games from the winners): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xxoGX4bS2_q_URpN35K8b9oGn1zogHiRxLarik38IZU/edit?usp=sharing Please send me these entries via PM, with each game listed underneath each console. So i'd put it like this if it was me: Name of Game, followed by Name of Console. I need this by Next Sunday 6th January. Congratulations everyone, i will see you next time!
-
Adding 2 more days! If no one participates, the win will automatically go to Ronald Poe.
-
I got an entry in. I would like to say you will enjoy the entry, but i'll will be breaking the rules of MnP 100 lol. There's like 5 sources on here, but more or less integrated, than serperate in itself.
-
Either an error, or a sneakily clever joke, or even a request to combine the sources.
-
Well it's over, and we only have 1 entry! (Impressively, not by me) To try and get some entries in, 2 Day extension is added! This is a really fun way to participate! It will get people to understand the appeal of soundtrack based VGM, than one particular track. Let's hope we get more entries in 2 days eh?
-
Voted! This one was actually quite tough for me, but i managed.
-
It's not your fault lol. It's just folks are busy, and not everyone will like certain soundtracks enough to remix them. Thanks anyways.

Hello all and welcome to the third edition of Spin the Wheel! A fun way to showcase appreciation of soundtrack based music in Video Games! Today's video game to remix is here! Be sure to read the rules here! This is to help brush your knowledge about the compo! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mob5N8UXluhNAUol5mZVyX5yAwUYuAY6KDaPpFzh5Oo/edit?usp=sharing Current games in the wheel: Last weeks winners was a tie from Hoboka, and Ronald Poe! The ones Highlighted in blue are the choices made by last rounds winner, which was me by deafault! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mob5N8UXluhNAUol5mZVyX5yAwUYuAY6KDaPpFzh5Oo/edit?usp=sharing The Wheel in Action! https://imgur.com/a/3Z1LBUT Lets SPIN THE WHEEL! It landed on PS1 again! The random game that was chosen is....... Spyro the Dragon! Download available MIDI files here! https://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sony/ps1/ Search Spyro the Dragon using Ctrl + F! This game lists 21 midi files, to remix with! It's the original Spyro the Dragon, non of it's sequels. Listen to the Soundtrack: Information about the Game and Soundtrack: Spyro the Dragon was created by a game company known as Insomniac Games, published by Sony, released in 1998. The game involves a cute little dragon named Spyro, who has a buddy named Sparx. Your objective is to recuse other dragons who have been place under a spell by the evil, Gnastly Gnorc. The game was one of the more popular titles for the PS1, and after a few weeks and months, it went on to be one of the biggest selling PS1 titles, launching a franchise still, known and loved today. The music is unique to other games, as it was composed by Stewart Copeland, who began life Drumming for the Police. Yep, you heard me, he was involved in the ever so famous 80s group, The Police. The soundtrack itself, is very much a Police soundtrack, with many of the reggae style slow peices, coinciding with the more uptempo rock and funk. For a game, that you would expect have a orchestral sound, is actually more rock (Sometimes though, i suppose some elements in structure and rhythm, could lean into the classical territory) It's a really great score, it would be interesting to see what you make of it. Compo starts Today at 25th January 2019! and finishes at 1st February 2019! Voting begins on the 1st February 2019 and finishes on the 8th February 2019. I will inform you who has won on the thread! Please submit a valid mp3 file, in decent quality that is less than 20mb. It must be easy to access and download. A ThaSauce page will be set up soon, so if you can then submissions. It's been an on/off situation with ThaSauce, so SoundCloud is a good choice if ThaSauce isn't working for you. Right now nothing is set up, so submissions will have to be external from this thread, via download links, or streaming services. I recommend using SoundCloud as a choice of service! Add a link here on this thread, if you can. You have 2 weeks to mix! Let's see what you have come up with! Good Luck! Since i won last time, i can only submit a Bonus mix! Good luck to you all!

Current games in the wheel (This will change as i receive games from the winners): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xxoGX4bS2_q_URpN35K8b9oGn1zogHiRxLarik38IZU/edit?usp=sharing Congratulations everyone, i will see you next time!

It's over sadly, and there is only one entry. I'm adding a 2 day extension! Hopefully we shall see some more entries! It is a fun way to appreciate VGM Soundtracks!
-
Just slightly over a day let. Only 1 entry in. Let's see if anyone can top that!
-
I believe you mean track(s). It's a soundtrack, not an individual track, unless of course you were talking about my remix. If that is the case then I'm sorry and you can ignore my post.
-
There are a few things wrong with the original provided MIDI: 1. The tempo is written at 148bpm, the MIDI that was presented was written at 115bpm. It wasn't on the grid when i loaded it in, so i knew it was converted than done by ear, which isn't the most practical way to sequence MIDI. 2. Instruments were selected at random, instead of the most logical 3. The hi-hat track is a mess. 4. It's a little lacking in areas, and some aspects sound odd. 5. Drums are missing snare and some toms. 6. A bit quiet in some areas, remember the Genesis didn't really have much expression, so a lot of the sounds were mechanical. The closest to expression is the attack on your synth sound. The original MIDI can be used don't get me wrong, but personally if you really want to achieve a more accurate cover, and less problematic track, my MIDI fixes all the problems. Thanks anyways.
-
Managed to submit an entry. A little basic, but of course the composition isn't asking for a lot. Enjoy anyways!
-
I don't get it. The VGMusic page lists 9 available midi files. That's not enough? Thanks for uploading anyways. Oh and by the way. It's Driver 2 for the PS1 (Thought i'd clear some confusion, i know i can be a little picky at times lol)
-
Thanks! Yours was really good too. See you next round also!

Hello all and welcome to the second edition of Spin the Wheel! A fun way to showcase appreciation of soundtrack based music in Video Games! Today's video game to remix is here!

This is to help brush your knowledge about the compo! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mob5N8UXluhNAUol5mZVyX5yAwUYuAY6KDaPpFzh5Oo/edit?usp=sharing Current games in the wheel: Last weeks winners was a tie from Hoboka, and Ronald Poe! The ones Highlighted in Red are Hoboka's choices that he sent me. The ones Highlighted in Green are Ronald Poe's entries that he sent me. Sadly Ronald only sent me 4 games from 4 systems, so i had to fill in the rest, which are highlighted in Blue. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mob5N8UXluhNAUol5mZVyX5yAwUYuAY6KDaPpFzh5Oo/edit?usp=sharing The Wheel in Action! https://imgur.com/a/yctFa0t Lets SPIN THE WHEEL! It landed on PS1! The random game that was chosen is....... Driver 2! Download available MIDI files here! https://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sony/ps1/ Look under Driver 2. Ctrl + F is a great way to search for things you need. Listen to the Soundtrack: Information about the Game and Soundtrack: Driver 2: Back on the Streets (Or if you are from America. It's called Driver 2: The Wheelman is Back) Is a video game released in 2000 by Reflections Interactive, published by Infogrames. It is a sequal to the first game released in 1999 The game involves you driving in cars and completing missions to progress within the story. This involves running from the police, and mobs, doing damage to other cars, and looking for suspects and witnesses. The plot involves searching a dead man after 2 men shot him during a shootout in a bar. They believe this leads to more clues and they recruit 2 officers to help with the investigation. The music was done by 2 guys. Allistair Brimble (Who at this point was an already established composer from the UK) and Richard Narco. The soundtrack follows in the vein of Funk, particularly from the 70's, like Car Movies. The music at times can be energetic, or slow and....er...funky. There isn't much difference in some tracks, and more or less most follow this style. Some tracks though take a more modern approach, especially within the drum programming. It's not the most innovative soundtrack, but there are some gems to be found on here. Compo starts Today at 6th January 2019! and finishes at 20th January 2019! Voting begins on the 20th January 2019 and finishes on the 27th January 2019. I will inform you who has won on the thread! Please submit a valid mp3 file, in decent quality that is less than 20mb.

Add a link here on this thread, if you can. You have 2 weeks to mix! Let's see what you have come up with! Good Luck! Since Ronald Poe and Hoboka already won last time, and contributed some games, they can only participate with a Bonus Mix! You cannot vote for Bonus Mix's, but for the people who won, they get a vote that Counts Twice!

Managed to get an entry submitted, although honestly this is one of my weaker ones, but then again, how often do people sequence rock n roll lol. Whatever, enjoy.
