kittykar, how could you be mean to Brandon?

I know you guys really wanted me to go, but I'm not going. Sorry.

Fine.... The Googlian Overlords are already dictating every other portion of my life from email to my phone. I might as well set up a calendar there. You'd think an OCR-branded online calendar would be good though. OCR merchandise like Spaceballs. I want some OCR toilet paper.
Now the only problem is I did check by searching gmail's search bar, and I have a mismatched number of submission confirmation emails, and none of them say what I have submitted. o_o I need to figure out what I submitted that I don't have a confirmation for, which may be tricky because I'm stupid.
edit: I think I figured it out, I may be one week past the 3 weeks from my last sub.. I'm missing 2 confirmation emails but I probably deleted them. o_O I find Google's calendar to be.. not very nice.. I would prefer a smaller overview with highlighted date buttons. But meh.

Google Calendar
With Google's free online calendar, it's easy to keep track of life's important ... Let your family and friends see your calendar, and view schedules that ...

"Why am I not a mascot yet?"

Throughout, this sounds a lot like the cave music in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island:
-
Don't forget the SMB theme. That's important.

My mother took me to OUSWTFBBQ a few years ago and met all of the OUS people and a bunch of the OCR people who go there too and she loved it so much she keeps asking when you guys are having another gathering so she can go to it again. Still.

This is so beautiful…

Your arrangement was great, but you need to let the notes "ring" a little bit more.
A lot of them just suddenly "stop," which takes away from the feeling. Try to hold the notes longer.
If you're talking about the intro, the detachment is actually intentional. I haven't added reverb or even damper events to the render here. And the effect will come out better when I actually record a performance of it.
Thanks for listening!

Hi, Liz! Yeah, I just started hanging out around here again. It's nice to see all the old people still come here. Anyway, I plan on doing a live recording of this eventually since I've become more confident with my playing, so when I do, it should definitely sound more natural and not sound like a robot slamming the keys. I'm really glad you took the time to listen to this piece of mine.
-
Well, again, it seems to me you're simply dissatisfied with how I interpreted the source. I never said you disliked the style—just the arrangement.
This feedback you're giving me, regarding the melody and how it "isn't a good fit", this isn't very constructive at all.
-
I don't mean to offend but you're trying to make a lullaby sound upbeat, it just sounds forced. I don't think its possible to make this tune work in that style.
I find this pretty offensive, actually, since you're telling me my artistic interpretation of the piece is invalid without saying much else. It sounds like you just didn't like what I did with it.
-
Yeah, it could use Kirby.
And Rayman.
And Pit.
And Starfy.
And Scrooge McDuck.

I knew, but it never saw it in a medley.
Some of these are totally vi IV I V.
I think this is still my favorite chord compilation video though.

Okay, so I originally started this a few months back when I was in a Yoshi's Island arranging frenzy and I had the idea of taking the structure of Franz Liszt's Consolation №1 in E major and mixing it with the Yoshi's Island intro, which came out pretty nicely but the piece ended up being ridiculously short.
Jump to today when I find this piece again and I decide to expand it, the result being what you're about to hear. This is sort of rough because I haven't had the chance to humanize it or master it or anything so at the time of this writing some of it is going to sound like a robot slamming keys. But I think it's listenable enough to post. In regards to the composition, I'm more or less finished depending on whether I feel like trimming the opening—I just don't know yet.
But for now, you can hear what I have here.
Give me feedback or ask questions, if you'd like.
And yes, that's 7/8.
-
Like I said on YC, make the Yoshi singing at the end longer, like maybe another bar or two. It's totally something you should repeat a bit. Also, this is a bit short; I don't know how they'd feel about that.
-
Once again, thank you all for the kind words. I'm pleased to see that you guys are receiving my arrangement so warmly and I'm considering simply submitting it as-is. In fact, that's what I'm doing right now. Wish me luck!
-
I appreciate the offer very much, Nubioso, but the piece uses steel guitars. It's a really good sample though.
Also, I love your sig.

holy shit hi iggy
Hi, Skrypnyk. I heard about your collaboration with GSlicer. Good luck with that.
I am really digging this. Great work.Thanks.
How do you guys feel about the guitars?
-
I've been working on this Yoshi's Island ending arrangement recently called Mr. Stork! May I Go Home… which you can listen to here. It's this thing I've made after a month of listening to pretty much nothing but Sigur Rós.
Anyway, unless you guys feel otherwise, I really don't think there are any glaring production errors. The real problem is, well, I don't have a guitarist and the whole piece pretty much hinges on the guitar performance. I don't think my synthetic guitars will cut it.
So, I don't know—give feedback. Be my guitarist, if you'd like.

I just came back after my long absence and I was wondering....where did unmod go? I miss it! :'(
-
Yes, that sounds reasonable to me!

I loved this, and thanks to those people at Vgmix, I find this remix funny too, especially at the part with the Timipinis because whenever I hear it, I say "ha, James Bond."
Opeth vocals :3
