I'm so sure I've heard this, but I can't identify it.....

I just obtained a fretless gourd banjo. Holy shit. Music just pours out of this thing. There is now a remix of Goron City in progress, which I will ostensibly claim credit for, but make no mistake: I did not write this arrangement, the banjo wrote it for me.

So I did my first attempt at a speedrun the other day -- behold the 20th fastest Tetris Attack Stage Clear run: (pretty sure I can get top 15 if I keep working at it)

I have nothing of substance to offer, but hope to be building a house sometime in the next year or two which will include a studio (was hoping to be building it now, but..... yeah), so I'll be following this thread.

Staying inside, looking for a remote job, trying to get various side-hustles going. My entire industry is completely shut down (though I was planning on attempting a career change this summer anyway). And my wife is immune-compromised, so we really can't take any chances. Otherwise, lots of Starcraft 2 and Melee. A bit of banjo practice. And that's about it.

So I thought I'd take a break from arranging game tunes for banjo, and try it the other way round: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nBOSBtMC38ljqacKUntw_lEZBGFBOzRn

nah, that whole section was cringe, and it looks like the remake will be faithfully-cringe-inducing

..... ...... ......... ...... holy shit Yeah, this might be the best mix on the site right now

Not one I'm familiar with

Ooooooooooh! You know, I don't normally like classical/orchestral-type arrangements, but I really love this! I love how it feels small and intimate, like a small group of musicians sitting in the same room, pouring out their feelings through the music. Superb work

Count me in! Just emailed you with my contact info

@IForgotMyPassword might wanna tag @prophetik music to make sure he sees this. Also @Global-Trance

Congrats to both! I want to especially give a shoutout to @prophetik music, bro. You've been around in this community for so long, contributed so much, and I know that I personally grew SO FUCKING MUCH as a musician from working with you!

Ten years ago, we were mostly teenagers and college kids who thought the internet was serious business. Then we (most of us, anyway) grew up, got jobs, got laid, had a few drinks and smokes, and learned to chill the fuck out. Don't worry, we were all shitty back then, and we mostly don't remember anybody's shittiness from ten years ago except our own.

oooh damn this is badass. Love it!

Saw it, and it was a blast. Not necessarily a "good" movie in the conventional sense, but it was bad in all the right ways. Enormously cheesy, and it completely embraced its cheesiness. The soundtrack was perfection. The movie was a blast from start to finish

Tetris Attack

Sad to hear it. Loved his stuff

Tangential question; Aside from tradition, is there any particular reason each mix has to have a primary game? I mean, couldn't each mix be tagged with a list of games it draws from, and subsequently show up when somebody searches any of the games the mix draws from?

Oh man, forgot to mention @Sam Ascher-Weiss I never really felt confident in my ability to improvise until I jammed with Sam and @Escariot that one year at MAGfest. Best way I can describe playing onstage with Sam is that he exudes an aura of genius that makes the people around him better musicians. I'm not exaggerating in the slightest when I say that I believe Sam is one of the most brilliant musical minds ever.

I definitely want to; I just don't have anywhere to set up for recording right now.
