TheVideoGamer Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) Compo: MnP (Meat 'n Potatoes) Congratulations to Souperion for winning MnP129 and HarlemHeat360 for winning the MnP130 Free Round special! As a result of the special, which involved doing whatever the hell you like, Souperion moved his source pick to this round, which also contains HarlemHeat's pick, since he/she won the special. As a result, they both chose their own source for this month's MnP source! Here's Souperion said about his pick: "Sector 4 Underwater Area from Metroid Fusion. A hauntingly lovely piece which gave me pause the first time I encountered it in game. It's slow, flowing, and delicately simple. Might work out well for a double dose round, too." - Souperion GAME: Metroid Fusion (GBA) SOURCE: Underwater Area VIDEO: And here's what HarlemHeat360 had to say about his/her's pick: "So recently I took a solo MnP (so to say lol) run at Chrome Gadget here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eacpzYZqmvc If you know anything about my mixes, I really love vocals and I'll add them in anything if I see the opportunity LOL. Unfortunately there was just so much here that I wanted to feel here and I couldn't fit vocals in where I wanted to! So I said forget it, I'll just make the melody more prominent instead. Maybe I went too far lol. I wanna see what you guys do with it instead! Go ahead and feel the chrome of the gadget!" - HarlemHeat360 GAME: Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Sega Genesis) SOURCE: Chrome Gadget VIDEO: Deadline: 18th March @ 1PM Closing Date: 20th March @ 1PM Vote Ends: 27th March @ 1PM MnP ARCHIVE - made by Trism submit: https://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/MnP131 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. SOME reinterpretation is recommended, but not required. MnP Instructions/Guidelines Rules for Picking a Source: All video game sources are limited to the 6th generation of video game consoles and earlier. This was due to community consensus, where people preferred to remix more retro games, than newer games. 6th generation includes: GameCube, Xbox, PS2 and Dreamcast. I'm now restricting big name franchises (Such as Zelda and Mega-Man) to one source per year. This is to encourage more obscure games, that not many people will know about to be picked. Make sure you provide me both a video and a MIDI of the source in question. Note: This is subject to change. Also keep an eye out, if any special rounds come into fruition. Guidelines: Modifying the Source is fine, so long as it doesn't sound completely separate from its original intent. If you're gonna do a genre change, at least make sure the original aspect of the source is not lost. Tempo changes are fine, as long as it's not a big change. I'm talking like, going from 80bpm to 140bpm. Submissions must be at a maximum of 20mb (keeping in step with ThaSauce's file size max), and submitted as a MP3 file. Only 1 entry per participant. Previous winner cannot participate but can submit a BONUS entry. Try to avoid making quality-based comments on submissions until after the Round is concluded. It is to avoid a Bias in Votes. MISC/TIPS - When picking a source tune, make sure it has a MIDI to make people'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) Edited February 18, 2022 by TheVideoGamer Souperion, HoboKa and Wassup Thunder 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souperion Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Oh man, I remember flailing around in Chrome Gadget a lot in my younger game days. And the game as a whole. Wish I hadda picked something that went with it better, but let's see... TheVideoGamer and Wassup Thunder 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe speeding up metroid to fit sonic might be a cool idea. HoboKa, Souperion and Wassup Thunder 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoboKa Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) Welp, I'm stoked for that Fusion source tune at least. Just gonna warn you guys that I've decided to not renew my Composer Cloud East/West Play and am going to be fiddling about with other orchestral libraries like VSCO 2 and stuff. Might grab some newer IK Multimedia stuff, idk. E/W Play is just too janky (usually post-render, which makes it even more frustrating!) on my current PC build and/or DAW to justify spending $25 CAD a month, whilst I'm on Disability Benefits ha. Poor Hobo-Itis. Knock on wood that I don't actually become my name-sake. Maybe I'll change my name to HoboSka and start buskin' around.

HoboKa Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) And I had a panic attack and re-installed/resub'd my E/W Cloud. I'll hoboska-busk later, possibly much sooner than you'd think with the whole Ukrainian situation and possibility of WW3.

Do your best and make some lovely music happen with whatever tools you desire. Looking forward to your submission! Was thinking of combining DKC3 with the Fusion theme. But I'm a bit torn on that, b/c it's outside of the compo's rules. So I might do a YouTube "Water themed" montage later. I just don't see a good connection between Sonic 3 Chrome Gadget and Fusion Water Area. Maybe there is a way to combine them, but it'd probably have to be an EDM tune of some form. Edit Also, thanks for humoring me and listening to my maudlin display. I'll try to keep my chin up for the rest of the year and not burden the chat with my bullshit. U da best Edited February 28, 2022 by HoboKa Wassup Thunder, Souperion and TheVideoGamer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, my PC is in limbo right now (but my Lappy is safe and well-protected, least to my knowledge). Trapped by a nasty trojan, so idk when I'll be able to participate next*, at least submission-wise. I'm glad I got to sneak in my entry for mnp131 though. Good luck everyone!
