Music Competition #15 - Battle Theater Mashup!, DEADLINE - 14TH July LOLOL

Firstly, gratz to Fender for runner-up and Hippopolun for Top 1 (that is so redundant but whatever)!

So, before I mention and establish the ground rules, I'd like to thank anyone and everyone who has had/has/will ever have the spirit to get at least a small (but worthwhile) entry into the competition - remember, the more the merrier!

Anyhow, let's get on with this. The theme of this next competition is...

Mario RPG battle themes!

You can pick any battle theme (boss, regular, special, miniboss, training, etc.) present in any of these games:
Super Mario RPG
Paper Mario
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Super Paper Mario (boss themes mostly since there isn't a standard battle theme)
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

...and with that in mind, your job is to make a remix of this song. There are virtually no limitations except the ones given by the amounts of battle themes in the game, so you can pretty much do anything with the song you picked!

As a standard, no things you've made before and no original songs. I'm sure we'll get to the latter sometime in a later competition, but let's leave that for then.

And finally, the timeframe:

June 17th, 2009 - July 12th, 2009

I would love to see at least five or six people get in, and in the case that we need extensions I'll be happy to give them out. I wouldn't like them to get past July 10th, though, so that's my limit date.


Having said all that, you are now officially ready to...

Go!

P.S. Deadline's been moved to the 12th!

Scratch that!


14th!!!

Medaf would be more than glad to comply! 8D

Hey Tri, can we please have the extension? I'd really like to enter, and I've just figured out modplug tonight, but I won't have enough time to finish if I only have until the 3rd.


If you don't want to, that's fine, I'll just enter the next one.

Alright then. We don't have that many entrants in the first place and since you're just starting and DJ seems to be making progress, I'll give us until the 12th.


Does that sound good??

My head is bobbing, that is a very good sign my friend :3.

Thanks Tri!


Also, I'm just listening to the song and then tabbing it out on the piano. Is there any easier way to do this?

well there is sheet music available on the internet

Well, I've looked and can't seem to find much. Especially not for the song I'm doing.



I've chosen the popple battle theme, so I'm pretty sure I just have to figure it out.

Actually, I just realised that's way to advanced for a first song. Maybe I'll try the battle with Cackletta instead. That one seems simpler.

VG Music and Anvil Studio are you're friends.

And I might enter with the Culex Battle theme.

first off, am I allowed to enter as I am not a member yet?
secondly, whats remixing? i.e. i have a guitar and effects pedal, if I played the song with effects is that remix?
I guess lastly,if I can enter, can I get an example of what the last guy did, when he remixed and where should I look for source songs?
I'm new, brand new


oh what software is advised to have to remix

I'm actually not sure about you entering as a not-member yet, but if you manage to finish in time then we can get it in and see what we decide!


Also, 'remixing' can go from making midis to using a variety of instrument packs and sound generators to put together a song that in some form or way resembles a particular song, but has a different flair/feel to it.

there were many last guys from the previous competition


Also, your range of software can be from Sonar, to ACID, to FL Studio, to Cubase, to Ableton Live, to Modplug Tracker, to Anvil Studio (if you want to make MIDI remixes), to recording and mixing via CoolEdit/Audacity/GoldWave, many of them.
