| (Congratulations to Pucifer for second place and Littlink & Luigifan12 for third btw) As many of you may know by now, Super Smash Bros. Brawl comes out next midnight, unless you're one of those Euroaustralian folks, in which case business turns a deaf ear to you once again! You probably also know that no form of Mega Man is in Brawl, and that this is a cardinal sin. Business issues have once again brought Nintendo to dance to a different tune than their fanbase. It's far too late to convince Nintendo and Capcom to change their minds, so all we can do now is mourn. And therefore, as a gift to poor Mega Man who has been shafted once again .. Music Competition #5. Super Smash Rockman Brawl Ends: ... I have no idea. Nobody's really entered so I give you until April 7. Hurry the hell up! Select a Mega Man song and remix it as though it were included in Brawl. Since this is a music competition, it isn't necessary to include the character and the level. It may even be possible for your music alone to make it clear which character and level you wish were in Brawl.

| Sounds friggin' awesome. Taking MM2 Wily's Stage for my entry. |
| Posted by: Pucifur Mar 8 2008, 01:28 PM |
| I'm not very familiar with Mega Man, so I think I'll sit this one out. Nice competition, and good work with the last one. |

| While I don't understand how I didn't get any votes, I had fun arranging the music for the last Competition. If I find time inbetween Brawl Sessions, I will try my hand at arranging the Boomer Kuwanger stage music, because that was my favorite Megaman stage music ever. |

| Musical update! I SERIOUSLY need help. I've never really played any music ever in my life, and yet I tried to compose an ElecMan midi. It sounds just like those midis you see on the New list on VGMusic that get pulled from the site hours later ;_; It's not even the full song awww man If I can somehow manage to make a decent base, I could at least modplug it up, but as of now it's complete garbage and I think I'm gonna cry |

| Yes I may enter this. There really is no set atmosphere for Brawl though, so it might be a bit hard. |
| Posted by: WoodMan Mar 28 2008, 07:21 PM |
| I'll try maybe for FlashMan. Wait no CrashMan. |
| Posted by: MC Jimmy Mar 29 2008, 08:58 PM |
| Can the song have words in it? |
| Posted by: Pucifur Mar 29 2008, 09:08 PM | ||
I can't imagine why not. Super Smash Brothers Brawl uses words in several of its songs. |
| Posted by: Draco Icebane Mar 30 2008, 08:32 PM | ||
brawl's got some awful crap with words in it, but it's enough that yes you can put words in it don't expect me to listen to it though!! i get nervous about people's singing :[ |

| I just finished Gustman's stage. (Whoever he is. I'm no real fan o' Megaman) So how do I enter? This is my first comp. Speaking of which: Where do you enter sprite comps? I've been dying to get in one. |
| Posted by: AquaMan Mar 30 2008, 09:13 PM | ||
Goto the General Chat and look at the stickies there. Just follow the theme and make a set of sprites. For entering this comp, just make your own original song with whatever medium you want of any MegaMan song you want but make it Brawlish |
| Posted by: Pucifur Mar 30 2008, 09:22 PM |
| You still need help PressStart? I figure I could -attempt- at helping you since I'm not actually entering this anyhow. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 1 2008, 01:23 PM |
| Well I got my song done. Now what? I'm new at comps. |
| Posted by: Draco Icebane Apr 1 2008, 02:26 PM | ||
When the song's complete, put it in a *.zip file (I'd use a *.rar except everybody's too lazy to get WinRAR) Windows XP: Right-click some white space in a folder, create a zip file, and drop the music in Vista: I have no idea if they keep the same system for Vista Anything else: If you aren't using Windows XP chances are you know how to make a *.zip file anyway If the zip file is under 10 mb, you can attach it to a post with the field right under where you type your post. If you quoted somebody, it's under the field for their quote. If it's not, which usually means your song is very very long, you have to find a free web host to upload it to. |
| Posted by: kremling Apr 1 2008, 06:11 PM |
| I guess I'll start to make my song. |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 1 2008, 07:13 PM |
| Tried and gave up. |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 2 2008, 01:06 PM |
| Might as well be the first one to enter the competition. In other words, I kept trying anyway. Vile Battle with a little essence of Maverick Battle, both from Megaman X. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 2 2008, 09:58 PM | ||
I second that. |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 3 2008, 05:04 AM |
| Entry update time. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 3 2008, 08:46 PM |
| So what stage is yours Nick? |
| Posted by: AquaMan Apr 3 2008, 08:52 PM | ||
It's a mix of Vile's talk, battle, and the boss theme from MMX1 |
| Posted by: Littlink Apr 4 2008, 03:54 PM |
| SkullMan is hard to get good samples for. :C Brass trumpets are the only things that fit the main tune. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 4 2008, 04:32 PM |
| I'll most likely have mine in Sunday or Monday. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 01:57 PM |
| Sunday it is! http://www.genericaonline.com/sites/yoshiman/Player/Megaman%20Revenge%20For%20Brawl%20-%20DJ%20Yoshiman.mp3 |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 6 2008, 04:41 PM |
| I can't play it |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 04:48 PM | ||
Why not? |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 6 2008, 04:51 PM | ||
I get a message that says that the player doesn't support file type or codec. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 05:04 PM | ||
what What player are you using? |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 6 2008, 05:06 PM | ||
Windows Media Player |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 05:10 PM |
| Hmm. Odd. I get the same thing. Try another player, I know it works on QuickTime and Winamp. |
| Posted by: Weirdestchild Apr 6 2008, 05:12 PM |
| It was great until the singing part came up. No offense, but the singing was terrible, mostly due to the sound quality that of the mic. It sounded like who ever was singing was too close to the mic. Other than that, everything else was nice to listen to, it's just that the singing didn't fit. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 05:15 PM |
| Then I'll probably render a non-lyric version tonight and post it tomorrow. because rendering takes a really long time EDIT: I just thought of something. The mic was my high quality, music studio mic, processed through voice filters. Because I can't sing good high, I dropped the octave. That means all the frequencies of my voice were clashing with the lower frequencies, causing distortion, even when I equalized it to decrease the lower frequencies and increase the higher ones. So, in that case, since I can't sing any higher without it sounding horrible, or hilarious because of my falsetto, it could be better to upload a non-lyric version. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 6 2008, 05:28 PM |
| So so far it's me, NICKtendo DS, and DJ Yoshiman. At least each one of us will get a badge. |
| Posted by: MajinPiccolo Apr 6 2008, 07:34 PM |
| The lyrics in yoshiman's don't even go with the music at all, sorry bro |
| Posted by: MegaMan Apr 6 2008, 07:56 PM |
| The random bleep noises really get in the way, the rapping was unnecessary, and I don't like how "heavy" the part before the lyrics begin is most everything else seems fine though |
| Posted by: Draco Icebane Apr 6 2008, 07:59 PM |
| As I said before, I absolutely hate the random NES noises you focused the song on. :x It's way too gimmicky and completely destroys the melody. It'd be better if you had a main melody going and used the noises as supplement (ie. you stick one in really quickly when the melody pauses briefly) -- Brawl does that on occasion but never stops the melody to focus on them, with the exception of Flat Zone (the Game & Watch didn't have any music.) ... and then there's the singing. That was the most horrifying Mega Man song I have ever heard in my life. I didn't even notice you were trying to sing to Wily Stage until the song was almost over, and you dropped a bunch of notes and broke the rhythm on occasion :[ Ignoring the cheesy lyrics which are fine in light of DK Rap, it was very awkward to listen to and felt very unrefined in comparison to the instruments in the rest of the song Among other things, if you're going to sing to the rythm of the melody you should keep the same notes, which is *very* difficult to do with wily 2 since it spans two octaves and tends to have lots of fast, difficult intervals. |
| Posted by: MC Jimmy Apr 6 2008, 08:57 PM |
| Lol, I have a speech impediment and I can Rap better then that. Other then the rapping the song was good. Make one without the crappy lyrics. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 6 2008, 09:23 PM |
| Apparently this wasn't that popular of a music comp seeing as there were only 3 entries. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 6 2008, 09:30 PM | ||
That was pretty much my problem. I did the rap quite fine, and then got to the "chorus" of actual singing, attempted it, and "... oh shit i can maybe manage the first two notes of it and then my vocal chords will naturally shut off on me." With that said, yeah, let me render and upload a copy without lyrics here as soon as possible. @Black Boo: Yeah, apparently Megaman isn't a keen interest for remixing for the members here. Very odd. EDIT: Did it quicker than expected. Updated without lyrics. http://www.genericaonline.com/sites/yoshiman/Player/Megaman%20Revenge%20For%20Brawl%20-%20DJ%20Yoshiman.mp3 |

| Agh, I have something underway, I won't lie (or get it finished >_>). I think it's Fireman's? Oh, and this is like a 15 second intro. Don't even include it in the voting if I don't update. Press Start, you never followed up. -_- |
| Posted by: Draco Icebane Apr 6 2008, 11:20 PM | ||
He decided that he was too awful at music :[ that's what he said |
| Posted by: MC Jimmy Apr 7 2008, 02:16 PM |
| Is DJ Yoshiman the only sane person that makes fun mp3s? I mean midis kind of fail. |
| Posted by: Draco Icebane Apr 7 2008, 02:21 PM | ||
I do modules and have an mp3 version handy, is that okay? :[ |
| Posted by: MC Jimmy Apr 7 2008, 02:25 PM | ||
Sounds lovely. |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 7 2008, 03:06 PM | ||
Some people don't have the money to buy programs that make mp3's. Besides, like I said, it's not the medium of music or the quality that's important - the creativity of how they made the music flow, what chord/melody progressions they formed/chose, and generally just how they arranged the song. Sort of like the sheet music is more important in these competitions than the execution of them - only for those who don't know sheet music, we provide the actual execution for example. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Apr 7 2008, 07:34 PM | ||
EXACTLY! |
| Posted by: Pucifur Apr 7 2008, 08:49 PM |
| Here's all I care to do. And godammit Yoshiman that is awesome beyond reason. ;_; |
| Posted by: DJ Yoshiman Apr 8 2008, 12:16 AM |
| I'm glad you got your entry in on time, Pucifer! |
| Posted by: NICKtendo DS Apr 8 2008, 05:57 AM | ||
