You might get a kick out of mine then, (and have a lot to say about it.) It is a kind of dedication to the way you and Soup usually do your compositions, and I really enjoy the occasional orchestral piece.

Mine's in. :3
Was both a wild ride and an absolute joy of a song to work with. ♥ 3/4 time signature is nuts to try to do anything with, but hopefully thinking outside the box has done its fair do.

Unfortunately no entry for me this time, even though the source screamed for some baroque-style-arranging. Maybe next time. Still looking forward to what you all got!

I'd like to point out how much I loved this round's theme of robots and ninjas. Just saying.

Finished my entry. Power to the Zork!

Great job VideoGamer, this song rocks!

A good technique for me, when mixing songs, is to take the harmony of one, and the melody of the other, and try and work them into each other. Alternatively you can re-arrange the melody slightly, to fit the tempo/time signature. I don't mean change the melody, but instead adjust the length of some notes, or the position of the note.

You don't need to worry about fusing the songs, but more so about the creativity that goes into it. I just go by my brain to be honest lol.

Bonus entry in!

I was gonna say you worked fast, but then I realized there's only 3 days left in the round! I gotta pick up the pace on my own entry!

I noticed that too lol, that was when i decided to put my head down and got cracking.

Got something in. Viva la Zork!

Also, in case people don't know or understand what I meant by the vague inspiration from my genre choice for the song:
The Glitch Mob is a trio electronica group. Song is slightly influenced from their earlier work like this album. Quite good stuff if you're interested. 
Also sorry for the extremely short blurb for my song. Was pretty angry and slightly frustrated with it. Really love both songs but IDK. I found the process of splicing them together incredibly hard by comparison to other people's experience (as well as trying a new genre-blend, while trying to keep in the MnP spirit) and felt like autistic screeching was going on in my brain by the end of it.
Seems to be the case I struggle with fusing songs together. Probably just something I need to work on. Hope people enjoy it nonetheless. o/ See y'all after the voting polls.

See above comment.

The bassline (Ostinato if you wanna be technical) runs on a single note throughout the whole thing, so that really determines the key signature. Since it's at a constant Bb, i can guarantee it's in Bb Minor. There is a few minor thirds in there too, which also helps.

Dude please stop acting like a total Zork lol.
