Bundeslang Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 The People's Remix Competition 423 PRCv18-04 Hello everyone and Welcome to the People's Remix Competition! In PRC421, two sources resulted in two participants and two bonus songs. It was TheVodouQueen who got the victory. On 2/10/2021 at 1:09 PM, The Vodoú Queen said: Source: Bomberman Hero OST (N64) Composer(s): June Chikuma Song: "Redial" YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv-2XIhmxPE Blurb: *Stretches* "After such a huge, complex, fairly serious tone presented in PRC 421, and the more somber take of PRC 422, I wanted to do something more...upbeat, a bit simplistic, but glorious and catchy to hear nonetheless. I had SO MANY choices going around in my head, though! Should I pick something from Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon? Or Shinobi III? Strider 2? Quest 64? Mischief Makers? Be a bit hammy (since it's nearly Valentine's Day) and do, like, "Candy's Music Shop" theme from Donkey Kong 64? The list was endless--but after having a lie back and listening to a certain OST, (and the remix of "Zip", one of my fave Bomberman songs on OCR,) my mind kept coming back to this--and I had to do it. I also saw that Super Bomberman was used a few times in PRC (and in MnP, Bomberman 64's "Green Gardens" theme was used as well), but was sad to see there was only the one OCR remix for Bomberman Hero and none anywhere else! This priceless, underrated little gem of a 64 game / song needs some love, I believe. So let's put our thinking caps on, ladies and gents, and do something cool with the stylish Drum 'n Bass takings of 'Redial'. Also, if someone can do up or find a way better MIDI source than this one, please say (the one I found is a bit lacking and weird to me, lol.)" ~ TVQ Source MIDI Link: http://midis101.com/midi_download/13205/FA8792647DD7B474D0426C872E4CED7D/Game_System__Nintendo_64__Bomberman_Hero__Redial_Sequenced_By__Jace Source: Bomberman Hero (N64) - Redial http://compo.thasauce.net/files/materials/PRC423_Game_System__Nintendo_64_Bomberman_Hero_RedialSequenced_by__Jace.mid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bomberman_Hero http://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC423 The deadline is Wednesday March 17th 2021 at 10:59 am ThaSauce time (18:00 UTC, 19:00 GMT), check the link http://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC423 for the exact time left.

anachromium Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Love that tune! (Gosh... why is it so hard, to even come up with an idea? I listen to the tunes and they always sound perfect to me the way they are. And then you come up with remixes that feel so natural as if they were supposed to be that way from the beginning. Just: how do you do that? ) The Vodoú Queen and TheVideoGamer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely good for electronic styled music. If someone orchestrates it, then you are quite talented, because it might be hard to do...

Souperion Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 This was a fun song to play with. I have to say I'm curious about this song's role in the game. Kinda sounds like a title/menu theme or a save station. TheVideoGamer, anachromium, Wassup Thunder and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vodoú Queen Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 @Souperion It's actually a normal level song. From my memory, it's one of the first songs you get to hear cause it's from like, level 2 or 3 of the first world, where it's basically a tutorial world. I know it and 'Zip' are like some of the first level songs. I'm sorry to say guys, I was working on a bonus entry but I'm sitting this one out. I'd still like to finish what I started and I will probably post it here so people can listen and comment if they'd like, but I'd rather not rush it and do the song no justice. I got busy with other stuff and physically sick a few times over the last week or two, so my brain wasn't in creative mode it seems. I'm glad for the big turn out tho and that people liked the round selection. Makes me very, very happy. ♡ TheVideoGamer, anachromium and Souperion 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vodoú Queen Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) I really look forward to voting now! Also, I'll try to work more on my bonus entry and hopefully have something to show for it before the voting period is up. I'd also like to take a stab at this song cause it's real groovy. ;0 Edited March 17, 2021 by The Vodoú Queen Souperion, TheVideoGamer and anachromium 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vodoú Queen Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Vote's in. Sadly, still haven't finished my BONUS song...but after hearing what the contestants submitted, it kind of blew my idea out of the water and killed it. xD I might try and keep at it over this week, but I have a feeling the original intent for it will change up to a different genre entirely. Just need to figure out what to do... D: anachromium and TheVideoGamer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVideoGamer Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I also voted. Forgot to say this lol... The Vodoú Queen and anachromium 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundeslang Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) It's results time. Bundeslang got 5 points and gets the last place wooden spoon. Reversing the song doesn't mean the expected results are reversed. Souperion has 8 points and gets fourth place. Anachromium and Wassup Thunder both gathered 15 points, worth a second place. And the winner of PRC422 is TheVideoGamer with 20 points. TheVideoGamer you are the winner. You may pick a source for PRC425. 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 source as fast as you can, but before next Wednesday (31 March 2021), 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): http://sites.google.com/site/bambombim/prc http://bambombim.googlepages.com/PRCRemixList.doc (also downloadable via the link above). http://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC423 for the votes and comments. PRC424 already started: Backward remixing (the source the other way around) was done before at Vgmix, but Kijee's Wily Power (Mega Man 3 - Wily Castle 2) was more a joke song (it was not a remix, but just the original backwards and some effects in it): it is still at http://vgmixarchive.com/. I also plan to make a 'Wily Power' version of that source.

(Never done actual remixing, only the type of rearranging you heard in these competitions.) I used the MIDI in FL Studio and just changed the order. I added an Image. The left is the original, the right is the reversed version, leaving the drums intact. Since this is a small source, I did it note by note (at some points I had to make some small corrections). anachromium, The Vodoú Queen, TheVideoGamer and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
