PixelPanic Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 This thread is to generate interest in a Pokemon spin-off remix album. Once I get about 7 people saying they'd wanna be in, I'm gonna set up a list of viable games and start accepting claims. The more the merrier, tell your friends! Get people in on this! We aim to supply songs that are not featured in main-series Pokemon games, and bring forth the spotlight to lesser known games in the Pokemon franchise. This does mean that songs from the main series will be unacceptable (unless you can supply a good argument), but most other games are, well, fair-game.

pokemoneinstein Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I'm in. And as for songs from the main series, I'd say as long as they've also got a song from a spinoff mixed in. (Anyone wanna mix together Eterna City and Agate Village? I'd love to whistle for anyone who wants to make a sleepy remix of that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj Mokram Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 lol, PixelPanic how many Pokemon albums are you trying to start here? ;P Seriously though, you already have a thread where people have begun showing interest. All you gotta do is rename it, then ask a mod to move posts from here before deleting the duplicate thread. Otherwise it'll look a little bit like poke-spamming. Just saying.

PixelPanic Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 I've contacted a mod about deleting that last thread, I want this one to be more focused directly on the project at hand, and I don't really want to deal with individually deleting posts and such.

Tuberz McGee Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm in. Totally. I'd probably contribute a vast number of tracks given my love for the spin off games. Heh So count the 'Tuberz Seal of Approval'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokemoneinstein Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 You are, of course, the director, so the final call is up to you, but here's how I think the song spread should go: Colosseum series: 5 songs Agate Village Pyrite Town The Under (Colosseum exclusive) Pokémon Lab (XD exclusive) Normal Battle (Story Mode) (Colosseum) *BONUS* Pokémon Center? Mystery Dungeon series: 5 songs Town Square (Rescue Team) I'm not the best person to choose PMD songs to suggest. Tuberz, TGH, would either of you two like to complete this list? Pokémon Stadium series: 3 songs Mewtwo Battle (Stadium) Pika Cup Rounds 1-3 (Stadium) Mini Games (Stadium 2) *BONUS* Quiz (Stadium 2) Pokémon Ranger series: 3 songs Go-Rock Quad Encounter (Ranger) (Again, not the best guy for this one. Someone else?) Pokémon Puzzle series: 2 songs Before choosing songs, we should find out if most of the music is okay. If not, there are a few original themes that didn't source from the anime. Pokémon TCG: 2 songs Title Theme World Map / Mason's Lab Pokémon Pinball series: 2 songs Bonus Stage: Gastly (Pinball R/B) This song Other games: 8 songs Pokémon Channel: Outside PokéPark Wii: Meeting Place Pokémon Rumble Blast: The Battle Royal Pokémon Snap: Medley (Intro, Oak's Lab, Course Select, Camera Check) Pokémon Trozei: Normal Stage Pokémon Dash: White Cup Pokémon Typing DS: Main Theme 1 Pokémon Conquest: Main Theme *BONUS* Beach (Pokémon Snap) Total Tracklist: 30 (Bonuses excluded from total tracklist) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPanic Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 I would prefer to be more liberal about it, and just have a list of games, and allow remixers to choose tracks themselves, with some restrictions, like "nothing in the main series" or "no repeats of tracks". But I will think on the presentation of it when the time comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokemoneinstein Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Also a fine idea. Might I suggest first delegating a certain number of tracks to each game? So then it could look something like this: Colosseum series: 5 songs (one exclusive from each) Rescue Team: 2 songs Explorers of ___: 3 songs Stadium: 2 songs Stadium 2: 1 songs Ranger: 1 song Ranger 2/3: 1 song (from either) Puzzle series: 2 songs (one from each) Pokémon TCG: 2 songs Pinball series: 2 songs (one from each) Pokémon Channel: 1 song PokéPark Wii: 1 song Rumble Blast: 1 song Battle Revolution: 1 song Trozei: 1 song Dash: 1 song Typing DS: 1 song Conquest: 1 song Snap: 1 song Bonus Tracks: ~5 songs Then, people can choose what songs they want, but the spread of spinoff attention is controlled. That way, it won't become, say, a Mystery Dungeon album with an Orre song here and there and maybe a Snap track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuberz McGee Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I like the idea of being fully liberal, but Einstein here has an incredible grasp on the factor that we should divvy out certain requirements in terms of numeracy. Of course. I immediately take all claims on PMD tracks. Hahahaha Either way, I'm totally in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPanic Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 I think what I'll end up doing is putting a cap at 5 songs per game, that way it doesn't become a "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon + Others" album, but it will also give people leg room regarding smaller games like Pokemon Snap or Stadium(2). But I must thank you for that list, I completely forgot about Channel and PokePark in my hasty research! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokemoneinstein Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Exactly the point of this project! But legroom is exactly what the bonus tracks are there for. That way, if someone really wants to remix something else, they can. And I think songs should be delegated according to size of the spinoff series. If we end up with, for example, 5 songs from Pokémon Typing and one from Mystery Dungeon, that wouldn't be a very good reflection of our goal.

Tuberz McGee Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I dunno. Pixel Panic raises a good point with the 5 track cap. Even if a game isn't as well known as PMD... there will be good tracks on the soundtracks. So I think we go with that idea. Up to you, but that's my two cents.

To give the spotlight to under-recognized games and music! Tha being said, we really have the ability to see what works and what doesn't, the OP is a living document!

pokemoneinstein Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 What I meant is that because there is good music from all around, we should have a minimum number of tracks for each game, and then encourage people to sign on for bonus tracks once the whole album is claimed.

Orangedragan Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Just dropping in my usual note about being available if anyone needs a vocalist and/or lyricist. Holla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj Mokram Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 under-recognized games Pokemon, under-recognized? Are you serious? That being said, best of luck with this spin-off project Pixel Panic & friendz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPanic Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Pokemon, under-recognized? Are you serious? That being said, best of luck with this spin-off project Pixel Panic & friendz. On OCR, Colosseum didn't come up. Under-recognized is an understatement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pl511 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 If you guys would like me, I'm in. Just for the sake of saying it, I'd really like to do something for Pokémon Rumble Blast (or Super Pokémon Rumble or whatever you call it). I specialise (or at least am solely good at) making piano remixes. I've done a Pokémon Mystery Dungeon mix in the past too. That said, I'm probably not up to the standard of some of you guys (I've never actually had an OCReMix accepted) but I think this could be fun. Is this still going ahead, by the way?

PixelPanic Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 Yes, it is still going along! And we'd love to have ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pl511 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Have any of you guys started making any of these tracks, or are you going to wait until more people decide to chip in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPanic Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 At the moment, we are waiting for more people to jump in. Enough to be substantial for a project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
