[Bundeslang]

Super Valis IV is to the Valis franchise what Vampire Kiss is to Castlevania: a watered down port of a PC engine gem, with modified levels, dumbed-down mechanics and, you guessed it, different music. Thankfully, the soundtrack by Junta is still pretty damn good, and I encourage you to check it out. My pick 'Vecanti' is one of the coolest Level 1 music to ever grace the SPC700 imho. This would make for a great symphonic metal or even synthwave arrangement. Hope y'all have fun with this one.

You may enter as many mixes as you like and work with as many people as you like on each mix. You are free to create a second ThaSauce account for that if you use ThaSauce, it's needed to be able to upload a second remix if you use ThaSauce. Of course you can also upload it somewhere else and put a download link in this thread.

Do not make qualitative comments on an entry until the results of the vote have been posted in this thread.

Mixers cannot vote for themselves but if they vote they receive a free first place vote added onto their score.

The winner of this round may select the source for PRC414, the rounds after next round.

The winner of PRC410, DJ Mokram, who picked this source, can only participate by submitting a Bonus Mix. His vote is doubled in the voting stage.

GOOD LUCK!

And the winner of PRC412 is AxLR with 12 points!!.

AxLR, you are the winner and may pick a source for PRC414. Send the source to me (with a MID/MP3 file, otherwise send a second source with a MID file) by PM, other options are PM me @ ThaSauce or by e-mailing to bambombim@gmail.com (I prefer a PM @Ocremix). Send your sources as fast as you can, but before next Wednesday (26 August 2020), 11:00 AM ThaSauce time (18:00 UTC, 19:00 GMT).

You may select any source from any game, but not a source with an OverClocked remix or a source which has been used in PRC before. An overview of the past PRC's can be found in the following links (I recently updated this site):

Yeah congrats.  I forgot to vote!  Well, here is the comments:

edits...as usual.  Just a more professional take on it lol...I hate unfiltered thoughts.

Groovy chill-take on it.  Is that Chill-House?   I really like the bridge/breakdown.  Lots of percussion to help keep the ReMix fresh on the ears.  Very re-interpretive too and quite creative.  You could probably pass this off as an original work and not get called out for infringement.  Would work great in a Flash Game or Animation, as it has a certain je ne sais quios.

To be fair, your thoughts mirror mine. Lol

[AxLR]

Yooo ! Thanks for the kind words! First fair win in a compo ever !
But your remix was really well done, Hoboka, some loud elements but great remix overall !

My source for next round is coming, I'm still checking some things.
Sorry if I don't answer fast though, I'm in 4 competitions at the same time

It was DJ Mokram who picked the source tune and Bundeslang who runs this contest, so AxLR isn't really responsible for the turnout per se.  But we appreciate you voicing your interest in PRC (hopefully MnP too? :D).  Please tell your friends about us before the compo scene withers to 0 entries T_T

Mad props to everybody deeply involved in the compo scene, I swear if I wasn't that much busy IRL i'd be spending most of my time here x)

Ditto.  I gotta listen to the remixes that were posted here.

Always loved the valis series.  Didnt play the SNES version a whole lot until much later but I did get to play the Genesis versions early on.  Eventually I was able to play the superior Turbografx versions and loved the series all over again.  Fun Factoid Valis II was Tenpei Sato's first game (at least I think it was) that he scored along with a few other composers and Sato would eventually go on to do the music for Disgaea. 

Sadly the series was sold off to an erogame developer many years ago and they left very little to the imagination in all possible uses of the phrase. :/ Still, appreciate that there are people here who are familiar with the games most have forgotten. Cheers.
