Hello Bundeslang, 

as the winner and the large choice of source that I can go to.
I would like to revisit this classic : Bloody Tears - Castlevania IV (SNES)

I attached to this message the midi file that I have extracted with vgmtrans program and modified accordingly for ease of use for remixers.

The deadline is Wednesday July 5th 2023 at 10:59 am ThaSauce time (18:00 UTC, 19:00 GMT), check the link https://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC467 for the exact time left. Make sure that the song is uploaded to ThaSauce or that there’s a download link posted in this thread. 1 week extra.

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 PRC469.

Everyone can enter. No votes are doubled or making a different in a case of a tie.

 

You can find the full rules list at this page as well.

 

GOOD LUCK!

Well, just managed to finish a quick, poor arrangement of this iconic classic based in the CV4 version, and I wanted to register on ThaSauce site but couldn't finish the process to validate my account. Even though I specified that I'm older than 13 years old the confirmation mail I received looks like that typical thing that should be filled by a parent or tutor printed in paper and signed, which is a nonsense.

For what I did read it seems entries can be submitted by just posting a link here so I hope someone can make it for me. It'd be cool if some admin can validate my account so next time I can submit it myself without giving anyone's extra work.

This is my entry, titled as "Bleeding Ears Again - Attack of the Killer Mummy" (I guess you all castlemaniacs will get the references :P)


Thanks! That was lots of fun! :) There's never enough remixes of this wonderful classic and soundtrack, I'll be happy to hear what others are doing too :)

I'm sorry, UPA. That sounds frustrating.

If I recall correctly, the only ThaSauce admin you can contact to report any issues is Ramaniscence.

You could try getting in touch with him in the Discord server, too.

Thanks @Tex! I joined the Discord and Remnscience solved my problem just as suggested, so I was finally to submit it myself.

Since the compo has an extra week now, please somebody submit some (non-bonus) entry! It'd be embarrasing to win my first compo just because that being the only one :D

Also expect me to participate there more often :)

It's results time

Two submission, but since Hleet's song is a bonus, Unknown Pseudoartist wins by default.

Unknown Pseudoartist, you are the winner. You may pick a source for PRC469. Send the new 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 before next Monday 17 July 2023), 11:00 AM ThaSauce time (18:00 UTC, 19:00 GMT).

You may select any source from any game. From now on, it can also be a source with one or more OverClocked remix(es) or a source which has been used in PRC before. Only sources which are used in PRC season 19 (PRC439 or more recent) are not allowed. An overview of the past PRC's can be found in the following links (I will update this list soon):

Ack i forgot to submit for this round, i've been too busy. Great entries all around though, congrats to Unknown Pseudoartist!

Next round i'll try and make it hopefully. 

Well done all!

Couple thoughts on the submissions:

Hleet had a nice overall rock band sound to it, lots of really nice acoustic instruments (Even if they might be a little dry), and a lovely arrangement. Well done!

Unknown Pseudoartist has a more atmospheric sound overall, whilst still retaining some of the orchestral parts and the drums. This one also features a few more synth leads, which remind me a bit of Nintendocore. The leads are not as present as they are in Hleet's mix, and the overall sound is a little more sharper (Not in a bad way). I really like the arrangement here, well done!

Oh heck... hahaha! The first time I win any VGM compo, and that happening just because being the only "votable" participant, so embarrasing! :D

Anyways, I hope people liked the arrangement regardless. I might participate in FFX Seymor as well, since I already ruined 2 FFX tunes before and I'm familiar enough with that source too.

Also I'll think of some source for the next PRC tomorrow and will send the message with it then. You may expect some obscure 90s JRPG since that's pretty much my favorite type of game and OST, so that's a cool chance to invite others to do more of that :)

Hey, sorry I'm a bit late, but just did my choice and sent a message to the e-mail adress you specified, since it's easier to send files this way. If I have the honor to choose a next source anytime again I hope that happens because own real merits next time :D
