Monobrow Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Hey everyone, in wake of the Metroid 25th Anniversary, Sam and his friend Gabe made a tribute song for IGN. Sam literally mixed and recorded this baby in two days at IGN's request. It's a whopping ten minutes + long, with songs from 4 of the games. I can stop listening to it. :J Here's the link to the article at IGN: In Honor of Metroid's 25th Anniversary And here's a link to the Youtube Video itself. Okay cool, it's posted on OCR. Here's the original render. Also if you haven't seen it, Sam got a feature about a week ago on IGN for his which is also badass.Check these out, get some likes and OCR support in there and hopefully there are more features to come! And as he's already posted, his new album is coming out, so yeah a lot of activity in Shnabubula land! Congrats for the feature Sam and hopefully there will be more to come! Another Edit: Oh awesome! Hip Tanaka tweeted about it *_* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychowolf Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I've always loved Shnabubula's piano playing skills and that remix was a worthy tribute to 25 years of the female space bounty hunter. the violinist was also amazing so the 2 combined was amazing, well done to both of you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outofmanyone Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Absolutely awesome, I love the Phendrana drifts rendition. Hopefully it's not too long before we hear another Metroid announcement from Nintendo. Thanks for posting the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monobrow Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 why the hell is sam's account bannedalso this is awesome, of course I don't think it is? It's Sam Ascher-Weiss on these forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnetic Ether Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I thought he made another account after his first one got banned, but I really don't know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I don't need to comment on Sam's awesome abilities. I will comment, though, on the upcoming 25th anniversary album that IGN didn't comment on. I mean really... ... oh all right, I'll comment on Sam as well - he's a badass at arranging VG music. He's also a badass at chiptune music. He's just... badass. The violinist was also pretty rockin', too - some of the percussion techniques were very well placed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadiePC Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Will there be someplace on the web where someone could nab an .MP3 of this awesomeness? I'd love to have this on-demand on my portables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyril the Wolf Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Congrats on the IGN feature Sam. Regardless of that, that was quite the musical journey of awesome I just got sent through. Not a note out of place and <3 <3 <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Fabulous track, but I have two questions. 1) Who was the violinist? and 2) Why didn't IGN give credit to the artists anywhere obvious? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Will there be someplace on the web where someone could nab an .MP3 of this awesomeness? Here for 192 or here for lower-bitrate VBR. Hopefully Sam doesn't mind me posting this... Why didn't IGN give credit to the artists anywhere obvious? I also find this pretty questionable.

Monobrow Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 Hmmm, he does get credit at the IGN website plug of the video itself, but I guess they didn't give proper credit on Youtube. Edit: With permission I will edit the first post for the link to the MP3. Another Edit: Hip Takana tweeted about it. Sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Ah, I followed a different link to the video directly, which didn't mention either name. Still sucks that it's "Sam and his violinist friend" though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychowolf Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 why the hell is sam's account banned http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01711/ just read the write up on that remix it explains why sam's account might have been banned (perhaps his account was compromised?) but i will say again that his work on the piano is supreme and the violinest was brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monobrow Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 Yeah... Long in the past, and let's let the past stay in the past etc. etc. Anyway video is on its way to 30k views in a day! Rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
