HoboKa Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Round 16: CV Aria of Sorrow - Top Floor "Since the compos seem to be having a rough patch, I think we need a nice catchy,upbeat source tune that has a defined rhythm. therefore im going to go with "top floor" from the Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow OST. Btw if you havent played this game, its among the best Castlevania games there are. go play it!" -Esperado Midi Starts: 14/05/2014 Ends 30/05/2014 2pm Tuesday Vote Ends 02/06/2014 2pm Monday Submit your remix Here when completed. MISSION STATEMENT The goal of Compo:MnP is to promote that "meat and potatoes" conservative approach to remixing: this includes the mood and composition of source tunes. It is up to the remixer to create their own personalization, or to simply give it a sound upgrade. Moreover, the compo is a great opportunity to hone your remixing skills and give video game music the respect that is due. A modicum of originality is recommended, but not required. All competitors and voters must adhere to the rules stated within: Competition Code and Conduct * MnP Instructions 1. Slight alterations of the source are encouraged, but not required. 2. Covers and Sound Upgrades are permitted. 3. Stay relatively close to the source's mood and notation. Refer to the example tracks for reference. 4. Any genre is acceptable, so long as you can still capture the source tune's mood and a good chunk of the notation. 5. Submissions must be at a maximum of 20mb (keeping in step with ThaSauce's file size max). 6. Only 1 entry per participant. 7. Previous winner cannot participate, but can submit a bonus, as well as have a vote that counts 2x 8. Must be made for the compo, not something that's already finished, otherwise it will have to be a bonus track. Taking an old idea of yours and reworking it into something new is permissible. **I will state the voting rules at the voting stage, so as to keep the rule list here as small as possible. I'll also relax the rules on qualative statements about your own works, because frankly, it seems impossible to prevent it from happening anyways, but I would humbly suggest that you try to exercize some discretion about said comments on yours or other people's tracks.** Example Tracks: FF7_SonOfChaos, SMW_Monstrous_Turtles, Hitman_Contract_Cleaner, MISC/TIPS - When picking a source tune, make sure it has a MIDI to make ppl's lives easier. - In-game sound FX are permitted, so long as they don't comprise the whole track (i.e. replacing entire MIDI tracks with just sfx) - Certain sad or moody source tunes don't have drums or percussion for a reason. So keeping it that way may be the easiest way to retain much of the original feel, such as and Edited June 2, 2014 by HoboKa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
