    Dang, he does the PR job better than me.  Do what he says TVG lol. 
    Some directional change is OK, but if its vastly different, you may not get a first place vote.  Still, thanks for showing interest* in the compo darkbrandflake11.  (edit2) Genre swaps are OK too, but if the tempo + notation is too different, then that's a hard sell.
    edit: skoshu/Nase's entry for this round was heavily altered, but it kept the mood intact fairly well with some evolution.  That's the kind of wild re-adaptation that is good here.

    I'm not HoboKa, but I am an avid participant, who has been long enough to know the ropes, and also has entered a lot of MnP. Think of me filling in for Hoboka (Assuming he's kind enough to let me, otherwise i get my A$$ kicked).
    Meat and Potatoes goal is to use what's called a Conservative approach to remixing. So all source notes and material are present, and the mood presented in the original is kept. If you wanted to remix a aggressive DnB track into an Ambient track, you would be better at PRC, out sister competition, as they encourage originality, and creativity. Of course some interpretation in the MnP competition is allowed, and recommend, however for the most part, homing in closer to the original source is the main focus, as that allows us to appreciate the artistry that went into composing the video game soundtrack. Best to PM him if you have any questions. I only work here lol.
    Oh well, thanks for joining in, and good luck!
    TIP - if you want some inspiration, I'd suggest you check out previous entrants from previous rounds. They will give you an idea, to how they have approached remixing the original source, from that round.

    1: (remixer A )
    2: (remixer B )
    3: (remixer C )

    I will post the feedback given in the PM’s and the votes in this thread. The winner may choose the source tune for PRC398.

    HoboKa, Don't worry, I cannot kill you by typing so I'm just gonna thank you for fixing it, was busy over the last days so I wasn't able to check it before. Voting deadline is changed (one day shorter) because I don't have time on thursday.
    Remix deathline is tomorrow.

    You ever hear the tragedy of Darth HoboKa the Unwise?  ...I thought not, it's not a story the Bundeslang would tell you.

    I'm definitely gonna get Schwartzed to death because I went around Bundeslang's helmet Sorry!.  This time only.  2 days, 4 hours.  (edit) Voting process should be 3 days following the submission deadline, assuming I did it right.

    Yeah white isn't the best colour on your eyes. Whenever i use colours for fancy text's in word, i add a stroke to make it easier to read, not that it's fully relevant or anything lol.

    Good, because SOR 4 is just round the corner hehehe...ahem yes.
    Soundcloud it is then, or until Bundeslang manages to fix it.

    Temporary Solution Kind of looking forward to a dark theme, even if it means not being able to copy/paste formatting.  Bright white makes my eyes bleed after 10 mins.  Something to do with the blue-light from modern monitors and cellphones being amplified by bright colors like white.

    Ack it seems to be over on ThaSauce, it's showing me with the voting screen. I have my entry all rearing to go.
    Any ideas?
  18. Thanks
    TheVideoGamer reacted to HoboKa in PRC396 - Star of the Bosses (Phantasy Star 2)   
    Eh, I'm considering the Soft Version the out-dated one.  But i'm glad you liked most of it.
    Heavy ver.
     
  19. Thanks
    TheVideoGamer got a reaction from HoboKa in PRC396 - Star of the Bosses (Phantasy Star 2)   
    Ok so for the soft version, i love the build up. Great use of synthesis and definitely has a nice atmospheric sound to it, that is of course until the drums kick in, then it becomes more of a familiar tune. Maybe enhance the drums, for what the sounds are doing. Mainly in the beginning and end, when the tempo speeds up, the drums are fine. As a whole good job. 
    The heavy version doesn't seem to exist on your SoundCloud (I think you've removed it), as i could talk about that. For what it is though, what you've made sounds really good, so keep at it. 
    EDIT - Ok it seems to work now. For a second i'd thought you removed it. In terms of contrast i sense a more metal approach, but a lot of what i've heard in the soft version, is present here. Nice contrast, but a bit similar. Still though keep at it, these sound great.

    Muahahaha looking forward to that.  BTW, fixed link to my heavier version.  Guess over-all, it's more of a cover.  But got any feedbacks any1?

    I’m on vacation, so I am without music tools.
    luckily when I get back, I still have 1 day excluding extensions to get something in. I will anyways, since it’s a good pick. Nice job on the remix by the way. 
  25. Thanks

    So this was a blast to remix.  More challenging than I thought.  But I was fighting off a food sensitivity whilst doing it.  Stupid delicious bread and its yeast T_T
    (edit over 9000)
    O right, since this is a BONUS, I took the liberty to make the intro and outro Rolf's dream / Prologue.  Uh yeah.  This image is totally not a spoiler.  And holy camel-toe Batman.  Too spicy rofl.  May as well link my SC since link is weird at PRC...
    (edit over 18000)
    Here's the heavier version
