One more ask for this little song. Lunarium is an adorable ARPG about two girls trying to save their world which blew me away and made me cry, and I wanted to honor those feelings while they're fresh and burning in my soul. One verse of this is short (less than 90 seconds I think), and the celestial theme Just Fits. Thank you for even thinking about it. I was trying to finish Lunarium earlier this month so I could write a longer song, but it took me longer than expected.Spoilers for Lunarium which is an amazing game I recommend, a little buggy but very genuine gem. Lune is a Starfarer, an unageing spirit borne of humanity's hopes and fears, who wants to live among humans as a companion and friend like any other, but who doesn't want to be their idol or goddess. When she understood that humans would always worship her, she walked into the woods to live alone. Ave, a foolhardy brave knight, is saved by Lune in the woods and proceeds to traverse the multiverse-worlds with her to save their home world of Firleaves. Lune realizes that she can live with humanity after all and stays with Ave.Song name: StarfarerBased on: Moon Riverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jgIezosVA [Open]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytCGBztCnhc [Open]Starfarer~Weaving us a trailFirleaves, we will regaleOur LuneOh, light bringer~Our bright stringer~Wherever you're dreamingWe're teeming with tunePallbearer~Star, our hope will bloomThe scarlet and the blueWill saveOur knight through the WhiteParadiseShare with us the priceYour virtue and your viceStarfarer~And Ave

>>749662057>>749662038thank you
>>749661746Please consider helping us time lyrics if you have extra time. It's easy, and any done now will lower the pile of things we have to rush done after the 15th. Video tutorial in full (different site but same process): https://files.catbox.moe/tupfvv.mp4 Timing website: https://lrc.notnick.io/ (better site than the old one)Download the audio and copy the lyrics for any song we don't have Timed Lyrics for on the Finished tab.Go to the website listed above. Paste the lyrics into the text area then click 'Synchronize'. Click the Audio button and select the matching music file. Then start the playback with the START button.Now you're basically just listening to the song and clicking once when each line starts. The "Next Line" button or spacebar/enter will mark the next line in white to show it's tagged. If you mess up, you can pause with the Continue button (now a timer) and click next to any lyric to rewind the song timing to that point. You can also edit the lyrics on the fly if you noticed the singer changed a line.When you reach the end of the lyrics, the 'Next Line' button becomes 'Get File' to download the .lrc file to your PC. Just open the .lrc file with a text editor (plain Notepad works) and take only the timed lyric lines alongside timestamps and paste them into Rentry. Here's an example: https://rentry.co/ypef847zTo pretty up the file, highly recommended:1. The new site doesn't keep verses/choruses separated, if you want it to look it's best you need to manually separate those. You can reference the Lyric link of the parody again for that if you need.2. You should delete stuff like directions on pronunciation too.3. Add an extra [00:00.00] timing to the start of the text, it makes the start clean.4. Delete the website's advertising bit at the end.If you have questions, let me know.

Bumping time….
>>749659156Either something went wrong on export, or I linked the wrong file. Will check when I get back to my PC
New? Update?
Why are there a bunch of demos in the Finished tab?
>>749667720I submitted my renditions of the songs other anons sang as DLC. I'm not death battling any of those takes, they all did really good
>>749667720Why are YOU on the finished tab?
>>749668426You mean why aren't you? We WANT people on the sheet, anon!
I have all of the vocals I need for (Game Ain't )Easy and Games Aren't Forever I just need to edit them and such. Is there anything I need to do to prove I'm not cheating the end date in case it takes me a bit longer? [Spoiler] the ico song is still kinda fucking me up mentally. I think it broke me a little [/spoiler]
>>749669440>Fucked up the spoiler tag My shame is immeasurable...
>>749669440You uh, upload them and put them on the thread/sheet?
damn, there's not enough time to tell CA to seppuku over Shogun 2
At the hospital waiting to get my endoscopy. If I die, please post ASS ASS ASS during Asgore the Flower Whore on my behalf. Glad I got all my singing in before then.
>>749669884I hate nigger assembly so much
major thumbs up to whoever mixed make it rare, came out exactly how i wanted
>>749671107You could say Make it rare came out well done
>>749671209
>>749667902Seussanon why the fuck did you reorganize the spreadsheet to have all the songs you wrote all together at the end? Please never do that shit again.It gets filled up slowly as people release their songs, seeing songs that had been posted before now at the bottom is annoying.If you wanna organize your songs make it on a personal separate spreadsheet.
>>749672073Oh, my bad, I didn't know it was an issue. Thanks for the heads-up
>>749661791Finished this
>>749672720Very nice. Now do some song art for MY song
>>749666845>>749661791https://files.catbox.moe/uc70vn.flacYeah, I was a dummy and uploaded the wrong file for EIGHT FUCKING BEARS. This should be it.
So I don't forget, and because I'm mobile fagging at work, could someone put >>748008032 onto the sheet? Don't think the anon who made it ever did beyond this post
>>749674389It's... it's gone...We couldnt save him, I COULDNT SAVE HIM
>>749674389>>749675019I managed to put it on the sheet and downloading it seems to work fine. Just has to be moved to finished now I guess if it's a done mix
>>749672345It’s one of the most annoying things you can do
>>749662147very nice lyrics! Hey I can't promise 100% delivery but I will at least attempt this song
>>749675686If you could put it on finished that would be great, unless the anon comes along with a new mix he expressed it was done
>>749661813Porn Game Girl Magic is completely done, but its sister piece, Porn Game Girl Magic Side B, still needs to be sung!

Hey! Hey! Hey! >(pause)>4CHAN IS DEAD!Reply to this post with your take and the phrase "mosh pit"don't think just GO GO DO IT NOW and you'll be done already! (Just don't clip your mic)---------------------------->Normal ModeThe original song has some big fat layering in the chorus. I'm trying to make this sound like a big crowd, so I'll take as many sets of backup vocals as I can for these. Even iff you're not up for singing, you can literally just shout the lines instead (or just speak them loudly) and that would still be incredibly helpful.In the sheet, I have a condensed demo of just the choruses back to back for easy singing along. I'll take singing, shouting, lead, harmony, anything. The more the better!full song details: This Website is (Almost) Kill https://rentry.co/7ee8ts4pparody of This Gigantic Robot Kills [YouTube] MC Lars - This Gigantic Robot Kills (Music Video) (embed)Thanks to everyone who joined the pit already!
YOU CANNOT CONTINUE SCROLLING THIS THREAD UNTIL YOU'VE FOUGHT ALL EIGHT BEARShttps://gofile.io/d/vMUslRqkWill post a version without SFX for DLC later.>>749661791>>749674005
>>749673556Which song anon?
>>749679730It's the one with Anon in the credits
>>749679350great lyrics, great performance>>749643826bit unceremonious but i'm dropping some rough mixes in the doc (just the tracks slapped together basically), final versions to come later. thanks again for being so fast and efficient or these songs woulda been in trouble.
>>749666862For the prongame?>>749675852NTA but you gotta chill, it's not that big of a deal and of course new people are gonna miss the invisible rules
>>749672720Very good shit. If you didn't do any album art, it's worth considering making one, I think this is the least amount of options we've had.
>>749682019Album art is tough because if it doesn't get used it's just thrown away forever. I don't blame drawfags.
>>749676489I'll be real expecting 2 versions of the same song on very similar topics to be sung is always iffy, people like variety. Especially topics for niche porn games. I'm glad 1 got done but there's diminishing returns on "now do it again" to most regular singfags picking between over 100 unsung songs and their own ideas. I think it'd be based if you picked up the mic yourself for it, you obviously have passion for it.
>>749682019If someone wants art inspo to parody for main art, I’d say to look at “Midnight Sun” from Zara Larsson, album was a big pop hit this year.I wasn’t able to do a song for it cause I ran out of time to record something, but I think it’d be nice to still represent it, also I am biased to pop album arts lol and we don’t have any this year so far.It could be Lara Croft in the middle of a jungle.Can’t post a pic cause phone posting but just google it.
>>749682108In past years it's never stopped them, but I get what you mean. I'm mostly just surprised how little board culture art we have, we have good ones but if we don't get more I think it's basically just all the ones we got by default with how many songs are rolling in.
https://gofile.io/d/dtiZjc5afor one of my final tricks of the year, here's some chorus i recorded a while back for "Keine's Expanding Class" in case you'd like to use it. kinda messed up the lyrics a bit so maybe just as backup or something.
>>749682108yeah you're sorta in an awkward position as a drawfag because you're kinda hoping that other people won't post album art so your album art has a better chance
>>749679350The SFX are hilarious, great work.
>>749682689I was actually planning to replace my finished mix of Keine's Expanding Class with a slightly different one due to wanting to replace a rhyme, but I might be able to work this in in the rush.
>>749682693Me when someone sings a song I already sang a version of, death battle or nota little competition is a healthy part of what we do here. writefags need their stuff to stand out to be used at all, singfags need to win death battles and hope nobody does a better version with different lyrics to stand out and of course they compete silently for song art and opener slots, even editors have a bunch of death battles lined up this year. It works to the musical's advantage and makes everything "earned" when it's not just by default. I think the average album art is great this year, but the way album art usually represents what the musical anons as a whole think should represent us is missing this year if there's not really choices on the art, since it's not even like a Vidya art can replace a Board Culture art.
>>749683076this is a very trans coded post
>>749683076>since it's not even like a Vidya art can replace a Board Culture artDidn’t we stop separating art into categories and polling ALL art against each other and the top 5/6 win and get used anyways? Cause people would get salty if less favorite arts would win just because they got grouped together with other less favored ones while big hitters had to fight for 1 or 2 spots.
Neocities has no songs!
>>749683361It worked out in past years because people voted with it in mind I think. This is the sort of year where imo unironically doing that might lead to almost every album just being Vidya art, it's the majority of the folder by a lot and all very high quality pieces (not that the others aren't too).
>>749683361People will get salty if the categories are very uneven too. I don't think a niche console-tan art a lot of people won't even recognize stands a chance against a popular gaming icon like Megaman+Samus or a BC icon like Janny when the art is equal in quality. I think it's good for the art to allow more niche stuff to shine too, especially in these days where Industry and Platforms have to share 1 album which still needs some BC or Vidya hybrid songs mixed in to be full sized
>>749682201I sang the original version, i feel like singing the Side B would be a bit too similar... maybe it could be DLC, though. The Side B gimmick has its flaws, I now realize.
YOU TELLING ME DRAWFAGS ARE A BUNCH OF PUSSIES? A BUNCH OF COWARDS THAT THINK THEIR ART IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH? SCARED OF NOT MEASURING UP TO THE REST? UH? THAT WHADYASAYIN?
>>749683793Yeah that's exactly my point, it's a bit too similar so people won't prioritize it. The pro tip for next year is to not sing 1 until the other is done if you really want both done for the albums, people are less likely to tackle a song like that when they feel it's already represented heavily. It doesn't help that it's 2 copies of 1 deltarune song either, last year we got way more deltarune than anybody wanted and this year we're already up to like 3 Flower Mans sung and like 3 more written.
>>749683893yest. submitted in past years, never won, stuck to song art this time
>>749681379They need a bit of rebalancing but honestly having a bunch of different layers to slap together is basically a cheat code to making things sound impressive anyway. I'm sure the final versions will come out great.
my convoluted idea is if we ever have a low art submission year, we should grab a bunch of the ones that lost from previous years and do a separate vote with them to fill up what's missing. but we always get enough art, bless the artfags
>>749684164Bring the jew CEO art back, that one gave us like 20 song arts
>>749684164For the DLC this year just shoop all the unused arts from this year together into one art
>>749684164I think that's iffy too because 1. no fair way to do it unless you're scraping all hundreds of past options 2. goes against what was said at the time for those years 3. hard to be sure they'd even want their art reused like that, especially for art fags that got better over time or outgrew the siteI'm sure if we ever get to a year like that some artfag will fucking rush at the chance to have a guaranteed album art.
>>749684315We already have a DLC art in the folder, someone can make more but it's absolutely not the priority vs actual album arts or even song arts imo
>>749683234unsurprising when it comes to talking about art. the trans vivian art is pretty based this year.
>>749682019for some reason, i thought this drawfag already made some album art, but i guess i misremembered his other song art as that
>>749683779There are ways to swing it to make sense, like Poke The Toad is a game, but it's a /v/-made game so you can swing it as a board culture rep if Vidya is overrepped. I think continuing to do 1 big poll is the best choice, like you said people can prioritize voting for variety if they wish. We've never done Katawa Shoujo rep somehow but that's a close comparison imo, it's as board culture as it is vidya.
>>749684946>We've never done Katawa Shoujo rep somehowDamn, true. Maybe next year.
>>749679350>https://gofile.io/d/vMUslRqkOld Anon, the song and lyrics unironically slapped and reminded me of the early 2000s.Please give me the lyrics and a full version if there is any. The SFX only made everything else perfect.
>>749684348>3legally we all signed the contract and anything submitted is intellectual property of the musical in perpetuity. I'm not championing my zombie vote idea, just making a joke/observation that I believe
>>749684946>>749685096yeah, that's been a peculiar omission, now that you say thatit's really tempting to draw one at the last minute, but i doubt it would turn out any good with what time we have left
>>749685317You have at least 5 days as long as we're aware someone is working on something.
>>749685489if that's the case, it might work out, then
>>749685307I get what you mean but for art if we're struggling to get more than not respecting past artist wishes isn't the best way to make ourselves appealing for future art.
>>749685560Just try not to drag on it, ideally we would be doing the poll on like the 18th if we can avoid delaying a day
>>749669884>seppuku>Shogun 2>posts fucking CAO CAOnigga shamefur dispray
>>749661791>>749662210Quick and dirty take. Linked instrumental has too many backings so kinda unusable and I won't have any time to fix or mix stuff tomorrow, but here you go.https://gofile.io/d/g3R9RfhU
What's the status on album art that got you all panties in a twist
>>749685591>I get what you meanyes, because I'm right
>>749685810It's just people talking, it's not a huge deal. We have like half the submissions we did last year but we still have enough if nobody wants to do more
>>749685774Very based job. There are other instrumentals, I fact I see it in the [VINST] list
>>749661791My mix of Doomguy is Coming, I'll put it on the sheet though I'm open to opinionsI'm debating adding the very very short album intro to the track and maybe some SFX, but I'll see with how much time we have.https://files.catbox.moe/62i7uz.flac
>>749685774Great job. The instrumental I linked doesn't really have much for backings that are problematic, I left the 1 clear backing line alone in the lyrics so we can have a Brittney Spears "guest starring the original backing" situation. The zoo line is very muffled and shares key words so you won't be able to tell it conflicts most likely, the oohs and ahhs are fine, the only part we'd really want to UVR out is the "Sunday" said once near the end.
>>749661791
>>749686353lmao
>>749672720Very kino and soulful. I always liked your artstyle.
>>749686127What the fuck am I listening to?

>>749686127>>749686437https://youtu.be/MamwBgEH2Es
>>749686953No, the mix is shit. Everything about is shit and it's impressive.Some anon's mix which is literally just compression and approximately 3 dB auto-ducking sounds like a masterpiece compared to that.We should just go with the singer's mix that's in the sheet.https://files.catbox.moe/0gu8xu.flact. singer
>>749687105>qualityfaggingWe should ban all the people who can’t sing on tune too
>>749687105I mean I can try to start over again and try to aim for a vibe more like yours then, I was thinking it sounded way too muffled by the instrumental.
>>749685754You got hit with a classic Oriental misdirection
>>749686498Looks like it's by nin2ds. He doesn't save everything to his pages, though.
>>749687105so what's wrong with it? I can't really tell much of a difference between the two. the one you linked sounds a bit more, uh, "spacious" I guess, like there's more distinction between the different instruments, but that's it. just curious, I'm not involved in this.
>>749687234I know you're just baiting, but I'll bite.WHEN THE FUCKING INSTRUMENTAL TRACK CAN'T EVEN STAY THE SAME VOLUME DURING A LINE YOU FUCKED UP>>749687269Yeah, my mix isn't all that great, but then again I specialize in black metal. I have wrong vocal tone.I don't know what you did, or if catbox decided to fuck everything up, but it's just not good.>>749687426Am I going insane here?
>>749687356rape
>>749687510nta but it sounds fine to me
>>749687562So I must be insane because I'd rather just have an editor's special over that.
>>749661813If anyone thinks they have the right sort of rough voice to sing "Bad to the Bone," I wrote a song by the same guy: https://rentry.co/pgnwm3yv
>>749687813embarrassing
>>749687510you're a fucking faggot
>>749688001
>>749687948What?
>>749687804I think you’re just nitpicky
>tfw can't make Scorpions Virgin Killer art because Youtube would burn the videos at the stake
>>749688313Those are the best songs
>>749688306You are right, I am.But here's the thing: I can afford to. I have my mix that, to me at least, sounds considerably better.
>>749687269Don't waste your effort, the singer obviously doesn't appreciate it. There are many tracks on the editing sheet begging for your attention.
>>749687510You gotta start practicing mixing yourself. I'm not speaking on that mix or any editors, but I know if I let someone handle my vocals I'll hear something slightly off guarenteed. Even if it's slight like on a single line my ears would just hone in on it, and that's not fair to the editor. They could do it perfect by the book and I'll still think "oh but I'd do it like this" that's just how it goes sometimes. Rambling, but really get more confident with a DAW, it can suck but you also learn a lot.
>>749687510Let's be real to most of us black metal is pure noise. We can't tell what your saying and it's so busy that we aren't even noticing the volume levels as long as they're all very loud.
>>749688045Yeah, a place where pretty much nobody else is as whiny or unappreciative as you
>>749687510>>749687269Do you have the settings for your compression? I'm thinking I can just try to replicate it within my setup, I did try to fiddle with the chorus takes so there'd be some doubling which I think the original does.
Yo Editfag, since we got AUTISIMO and Physical done this year, could you do this mashup?https://youtu.be/jXv_d60y1MQ
>>749688476You can't afford to be a dick like this, because as someone that can't tell which mix sounds better, you convinced me not to vote for yours in the poll.
>>749688641It's a meme and niche subgenre, honestly only the singer or the original writer should even tackle editing it, for everyone else it is too big of a risk
>>749688749rip the other songs in the editing sheet I guess
>>749688476If you're so confident in your own editing skills then you shouldn't have wasted our editors time asking for new edits to begin with. We don't have the spare manpower this year.
>>749682019>I think this is the least amount of options we've had.i'd rather a small pool of (all great by the way) options than have anons submitting crap like pic related that no one in their right mind would vote forplus it's probably for the best considering some manner of bullshit happens with the art poll every year
>>749688818It would be a DLC mashup he can do for the stream after he’s done with priority stuffAlso the vocals are already mixed and tuned, he’d just have to change the key of some vocals and rearrange them, possibly UVR the instrumental. Don’t think it would take that long?
>>749688953I get what you're saying, but if nobody is going to vote for the options then they only serve to highlight how good the winners are which is a net gain. And those ones are still several tiers against the truly laziest ones we've had like the avenue Q one which just changed a Q to a V and shifted the color gradient of the backing image.
>>749688896No one asked for anything, the writefag wanted to edit it.
>>749689025Maybe I'm underestimating how much work a mashup like that takes, but in my mind this is a year where editors specials are already inevitable once all the last minute drops pile in.
>>749689226Did you mean overestimating?
>>749689572Uhhh Google says yes, sorry, I'm ESL.
>>749689025ahh autismo isn't mixed yet, I haven't even done a volume sweep on it
>Musical about to end>Still no song about those levels in video games where you need to build 6 ice cream cone statues to enter an ice cream factory
>>749689657When you’re done editing it, could you post the mixed vocals only (no instrumental) for the (possible) mashup?
>>749689783Yeah you didn't write it and the idea came late in the year when most writefags were done.
WHOAAAAAA HOOOOAAAAFELL DOWN IN DESPAIR!
>>749689837It's just been in every game recently, I assumed it would've gotten a song by now
>>749689916>when the key changes but he sings the WOAHS the same wayIt’s pure so/v/l
>>749689968Being in games doesn't really mean it's that fitting for the song, I can't lie it's kinda boring for a topic like most "gameplay tropes" songs are. What do you expect the song to say about it?
>>749661791Frogs Just Love Their Fractions. I managed to belt in some parts. Most of it is shouting.https://gofile.io/d/nJX76pYGThis mix kicked my ass so feedback is welcome. The original song has a lot of reverb so I'm hoping I didn't go overboard with it. Raws will be added to the sheet later.
>>749690005The key to soul is that I don't know what people mean when they say key for music. I just sing.
>>749690110A scale is the different group of notes that make the foundation of a song or melody.A key is the initial note that scale is based off of.
>>749689818sure, I'll try to remember. could be a (possible) next year dlc track if timing doesn't work out
>>749690061Well, maybe something about how playtesters keep asking the devs to put levels where you need to build 6 ice cream cone statues to enter an ice cream factory into their games even when it doesnt make sense to have a level in the game where you need to build 6 ice cream cone statues to enter an ice cream factory
>>749661760"A Song About Those Levels In Games Where You Have To Build 6 Ice Cream Cone Statues To Enter An Ice Cream Code Factory"to the tune of Tequila by The ChampsLyrics:Ice cream conesIce cream conesIce cream cones!
>>749690259Genius... Could be an album opener
>>749690072Very nice. I felt like the harmony at 1:10 ish was very slightly quiet maybe? But no real issue.
>>749690072I'm just on basic computer speakers but the reverb level sounds completely normal to me as someone that does sometimes go "huh that's a lot of reverb". I'm very impressed with how close you got those "far back"(?) backing vocals to sound to the original, genuinely very well done as an editlet that doesn't have a clue on how you'd replicate it so closely. This is a really strong track, thanks for putting so much effort into it.
>no starcraft tik tok song in the end?
>>749690185You’re gonna DLC Autismo? You know the deadline on the 15th is for vocals not mixing. You can still keep editing songs until up to release/stream day.Hell, you can post the vocals in the spreadsheet and have someone else deal with it.
>>749690072I love it. Thank you dearly for using your time to sing my silly song.
>>749690603They're talking about a mashup song, not the actual song.
>>749690603nah, dlc for the (possible) mashup.
>>749690213Was there some article say that or something? I just associate the trope with the devs needing a game to be a little more than "walk here punch guy walk there punch guy win", and key-and-lock puzzles are the easy way to give players a reason to stick around in a zone longer than it takes to walk across it.
>>749685193Full version?Lyrics are on the sheet as always.
>>749690875I'm not sure what key and lock puzzles have to do with it, it's about specifically the 6 ice cream cone statues being built type of thing which is in all the remakes nowadays
>>749690951The trope your describing is just disguising a key and lock puzzle by not have a literal lock and key. Assembling the ice cream statues is the key to open the otherwise locked ice cream factory.
>>749690875you're replying to a joke post
>>749691030It's not a trope, it's the same puzzle getting reused. They even put it in the OOT remake even though that game didnt even have an ice cream factory originally
>>749691172Album art potential
>>749686127I think I'd go a bit lighter on Trackspacer, but it's better than >>749687105 because I can actually make out some words. Though you should master it louder.
>>749691248No album arts are parodies of album arts
Hold the fuck on, all takes for Oh Board are only hosted on vocaroo?
>>749691309You're not supposed to be able to make out the words, fucking idiots, it's black metal.
>>749691313I'm gonna go release a soundcloud mumble rap album with this image as the cover and then we'll be free to use it
>>749691384Nor identify any sort of coherent melody
>>749691358Many such cases. I go with down sampling the instrumentals for a classic song vibe in those situations, if it can work for the song.
>>749691443you're not even supposed to enjoy it
>>749691384what is the appeal of this genre when you can't hear anything
>>749691384We're making parodies where the main focus is the lyrics. When I want to listen to regular black metal I put on black metal.
>>749691470It's anti listener frfrno for real though it's just a really poor choice to parody
>>749690456Turned that part up a tiny bit. https://gofile.io/d/fxroITBB>>749690460>how you'd replicate it so closely12 takes and way too much time messing with delay and verb.>>749690679Thanks for the fun topic and fun lyrics. Now I need to go play the game.
>>749691172Captchanon.png
>>749691489You gotta piss off your parents somehow
>>749686052>VINSTThis is what I've got. It's not very good. https://gofile.io/d/19D3Oulw
>>749691497>When I want to listen to regular black metal I put on black metal.Well, i usually just put some Fe3O4 in my ear ;^D
>>749691446The dude even has a good voice for the song but this recording quality is pretty cursed
>>749691313Not true?Lights, Camera, Action is not a parody of anything.Shroom High is a parody of a TV show, same with FRIENDSLOP if it wins this year.
>>749691709Friendslop is actually from the OST so it is an album cover
>>749691552>12 takes and way too much time messing with delay and verb.Damn I figured it was high effort from how it sounded but that's above and beyond, kudos>Now I need to go play the game.NTA but it's a cute one, I probably played it 10 times in school be it started as one of those browser games on a self-hosted site that schools didn't block like the big sites. The free steam version is fine as is the browser version. The sequels are Glittermitten Grove and then the Hat DLC on steam is technically the 3rd game, since half of the vibe of the series is being deceptive it can be a weird series to follow
>>749691552fuckton of layers chads, rise up
>>749690893Wait, what sheet? o.O. (treat me like i am mentally challanged.)That link only has a flac file wich i managed to reverse engineer the sheet for the instruments, but not the lyrics, unless my software is somehow messed up or I'm blind.
>>749691754My other points still stand, and those are released albums.I also don’t think “Shitposting in Stereo” from Year 3 is based on an album?And then you have all the arts from Year 1.While yes, it’s good and encouraged to do parody art of album arts, it’s not a hard rule.
>>749691893The spreadsheet with all the songs linked in the OP.
>>749691893>what sheet?
that's why I keep saying, op is too bloated no one new reads that shit. unless he's being silly, tee hee?
>>749691709You can always nitpick on exceptions if you want. AI was a mistake we should never repeat again so it shouldn't be included period as an example, we'd replace it retroactively if we could. The Clone High art was elevated song art that wasn't designed as album art to begin with, and yeah of like 100 albums you can point to a few times things slipped many years ago if you want, but that doesn't mean we should intentionally break from how it's done.Friendslop is from the OST art.
>>749692138it's not that bloated imo except for the instrumental database. does anyone actually use that in the year 2020+6?
>>749692204You’re so mentally challenged you don’t see my point.I’m saying we can allow art that is not parody of an album art, because it has already happened, several times.And I’m also saying it should be encouraged to do parody art but it’s not an actual rule.
>>749692260Someone just requested one and got one like 10 posts ago. But yeah some of those things should probably be moved to the NEWFAQ and linked in the sheet, the instrumental stuff could be linked at the instrumental header on the sheet.
>>749692260I used it this year
>>749692260Of course, where else are we gonna find Britney Spears - Big Fat Bass (Feat. will.i.am) Multitracka?
>>749661791Having a BLAST with this onehttps://gofile.io/d/xiGUn9qf
>>749692260it's hella bloated. none of the links should be removed but that many of them means a person will skip all of them. could tuck them into a pastebin and only show the main song sheet, maybe
>>749691384>>749691470The original is melodic death, this is just with vocals mixed like black metal.>>749687510>>749688720Well I didn't get a response but I still tried, went way easier on trackspacer and tried to bury the vocals in the mix. Also I for some reason wasn't using the re-recorded vocals even though I thought I had them(???) very embarrassing fuckup of me.https://files.catbox.moe/62i7uz.flacNow if this isn't on the right track, since I'm alright with changing things even more, I guess I'm just not cut out for this particular song and we can go with the singer's mix. t. writerAlso no clue why people are so aggressive about this, for me it's no big deal since it's just a song. I know a singer should get what they prefer.
>>749692320I'm sorry you think ad hominems and attacking other anons here is productive or worth any of our time. You're not understanding what I said, which is not "you are banned from attempting this and it is evil". The point of bringing up stuff like this is to decentivize low effort slop submissions or breaking from tradition entirely. If someone makes an amazing art piece that isn't a parody we might still use it, but it is extremely relevant to point out that album arts should be based on albums when people suggest otherwise so that we can incentivize keeping the traditions alive. We're only here due to tradition, if someone just wants to draw someone with down syndrome to mock the disability then we can't stop them but I don't find it particularly interesting or fitting for an album cover.
>>749685774>>749662210Let me know if this is acceptable.https://gofile.io/d/0B4Y0Fff
sing my song you fucks
>>749692260More people should use it desu. Having stems makes finding harmonies a lot easier, and just having the vocals separately makes it easier to see when you should start singing.
ATTENTION I am extending "Play a Few Games Together" deadline to the last minute and will save my mixing and drops for tomorrow night to allow for MAXIMUM FRENZ time to sing along on this one.Based on: The Housebuilding Song - Red Dead Redemption 2Demo: https://files.catbox.moe/hdivz6.flacLyrics I need you frenz to sing:>Let me log on and make an invite and send it>Haven’t been on since the last whole season ended>It’s been so long since we played a few games together>I got a little time weekends or nights whenever>No matter>How old and weathered>We'll game togetherSing along to the track above in your headphones for rough timing and add your isolated vocals to the spreadsheet entry in General Audio Edits and I or a more talented editfag will compile. Just try your best to be near tune, and if you can't sing at all just say the lines in time with the music roughly as a sing-along and get clean audio so we're not compounding background fuzz.Anchor: >>749661791
>>749692650And where am I disagreeing? I’m saying we should encourage tradition. But you replying to an anon and saying that album art has to be parody is a straight up lie. That’s not a hard rule.
>>749692660I love it, easy keep in my playlist. Only real feedback is that perhaps an audio clip of something relevant or an adlibbed joke could take up a few seconds during the instrumental bit at the end, but as is it is already both soulful and sounds good.
>>749692868>album art having to be parody is not a hard rule.agree, seconding this, word
>>749692868You're arguing over your assumptions and not what was said. It was never stated to be a rule, let alone a hard rule, and the word "has" was not even used. You are going on a long rant over a very short post that was just attempting to remind people we parody album arts for our albums so not every image is something to use for one. If you are wanted to advocate for breaking from the tradition as an option, this could have been a quick reply saying "note this isn't a hard rule, just encouraged" and then it'd avoid the long chain.
>>749692650>tradition>when Year 1 album arts are all original (tho you could tell one is inspired by dark side of the moon but still not a direct parody of it)lol
To the singer of Oh Boardcan I please please please get another take or two recorded in audacity and uploaded to catbox? The current ones are basically unusable due to the microphone's sensibility not picking up half of your words
>>749691971>>749691938Ok so, https://gofile.io/d/vMUslRqk is the full version it's just my browser that messed up the site that only allowed me to play cca 5 mins and I did something that also fucked the resolution on my spreadsheet not showing the lower bar.You were right anons, more salt to the wound I litterally went on a whole ass quest to get the lyrics myself using about 2 tools reading the messages after being almost done. Talk about being fucking retarded and not reading the description
>>749693051no, he's right>album arts are parodies of album artswas a poor response without the further context of your opinion
>>749693079This project has gone on 14 years now, tradition does not exclusively mean year 1. Many things we only really did year 1, like stick heavily to Disney, were things done on the fly that then got refined into tradition over the following years as people figured out what the musical would be if it was repeated every year and not a one off fun gimmick.
If you wanna hear my song you gotta hop on vc.https://gofile.io/d/3vgMPDmB>>749661791
>>749693051You literally said “no” when someone threw the idea around and justified it with “album art is parody art”? Like if you’re not trying to make it sound like a rule then say “yo I’d probably prefer it to be an album parody art instead” but the way you phrase it makes it sound like it some sort of secret hard rule.
>>749693182I really don't get the extreme autism of making it a huge chain, but obviously yes I concede that if I knew we were going to be anal about semantics then I would have used more words in that post instead of stating what I figured was a reminder that people would understand the intent of without a full essay attached.
>>749682689>>749682897>>749661791I like duets so I slotted you into the chorus. Does it sound alright? I'm not sure if it should be narrower or not, but otherwise I think I'll roll with it over my original version.https://files.catbox.moe/1bj6a7.flac
>>749693298Hell yeah 2 ERP songs this year, the goonbros are gonna love this
Home, time to get to editing Games Aren't Forever and (Game Ain't) Easy
>>749693383it's all good. but to be fair when a huge chain occurs you are half of it
Seussanon, can I get your working files for See you Later, Emulator? I wanna see if I can clear up the vocals, your microphone/room are doing you a disservice
>>749693342You're taking an extremely short post that didn't even include punctuation way too seriously. I already conceded it could have been worded better so you arguing just for the sake of arguing.
>>749693383>I don’t see the point in making a chainYou made it a chain.Anon clarified that it was not a rule, and you decided to keep replying and going on about tradition when that’s not the point. He was clarifying that a rule you were implying existed, doesn’t exist.
>>749693513No, there's 2 or 3 people replying to me, and I'm mostly trying to show I respect your input and say "you're misunderstanding what I said, yeah I get your point I could have said it better", not argue that the original post's raw text was the only correct way to view it.
Funny how you can learn to identify who is talking depending on the variant of autism they have.
>>749692597This sounds a lot better to me.
BLACKPINK outsold TWICE
>>749693626He was also throwing around insults and assumptions instead of just saying "this isn't a hard rule". That's what made it a chain, because if I didn't reply, whoever else did might decide to escalate with him instead of try to de-escalate.
>>749693806every good post is me, and every bad post you think is me is actually someone else, ok?
>>749693916nigga just take responsibility in making it a chain, it takes two to tango
WRITE TANGO
>>749662147Hey anon, so the karaoke version has backing vocals so its hard to overlay your lyrics. I found a jazz version and a piano version, do you prefer one over the other? Will record tonight and tomorrow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy1LD46XhBwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAihm-FZlyo
>>749694010You really love to argue and read your own posts
>>749693914leave me alone
>>749693916The convo should’ve ended at >>749691709 the fact that you kept going is what led to him calling you a retard for trying to justify a rule that didn’t exist
>>749694180Why would it end at a misleading post devoid of context? Do you genuinely think people should point to the AI art for all time as if it represents what anyone wants the musical to be?
>>749694092:o Thank you! The piano version is more sentimental. I wouldn't mind the jazz if you like it better! Thank you!
>>749694180That post >tries to use AI as an exam of how we sh do things>points out one of the only cases of song art getting bumped up to album art we've ever had>gets a basic fact wrongso it's not surprising at all it got replies, all 3 of those are engagement bait
>>749693298
>>749694260You’re once again being obtuse and making a chain of a convo that should’ve ended.The point is not “look at AI art, it’s amazing and we need more”, the point is “it’s not a hard rule to have to do parodies of albums and here are examples”.I’m disengaging from this convo now, you’re clearly the type of person that just argues cause they hate being wrong.
>>749694341I was hoping you'd pick the piano, that works perfectly
>>749694260before considering what we want the musical to be, we must first reflect on what the musical is
>>749694516You're a wonderful person. May all your dreams too come true.
>>749694430>you’re clearly the type of person that just argues cause they hate being wrong.ironic from someone that just moved the goalpost when it got pointed out Friendslop actually was an album parody so they were wrong. if you don't want people to point out blatantly wrong information, stop using examples of things you aren't sure are correct
>>749694430I already admitted where I was wrong, I'm sorry if it hurts your feelings but if you're going to refuse to do the same then I'm going to point out when you're wrong as well when you insist. You pointed out a terrible post for the chain to end on be the post was incorrect, and you know it.
Stop this incessant arguing and sing my fucking song you fucks!
Sounds like we got some MOUSEs in some MAZEs that should be singing
if K actually does that tomboy song I'll laugh my ass off
It can't really be that hard to sing on beat, can it?https://gofile.io/d/kVnz4vPC
>>749693532If you get them, I'm gonna try recording the backing vocals in a few hours, so you might want to wait for that
>>749695649What does on beat mean
>>749693532Thanks, I didn't have any time to re-record/clean this one up. It's very lengthy.https://files.catbox.moe/hteok8.wav
>>749695649At least an editor can attempt to fix it, sometimes the singers are close enough to on beat but then the editor fucks it up somehow anyway and it ends up off beat (see the flintstones song first mix)
>>749696004An editor should not have to waste their time to fix the singer's incompetence.>>749695926https://youtu.be/F21pS3Wo8koPlay Rhythm Heaven and you'll get it.
>>749693470not sure what if anything could improve the mix but sure sounds nice with a bunch of voices in there
>>749696101Of course not, but at least it is fixable. The editor is the last step so QA is all on them.
>>749696101Oh. I fucking sick at rhythm heaven, I only played the demo for the switch one once
>>749662147>>749694590Hey got a quick recording in before the dinner date so there will be fixing/editing/rerecording later. I love how well your lyrics fit the instrumental. There's also a whole minute and a half of the song left after your last verse, did you want to continue the song? I'll check the thread when I get backhttps://gofile.io/d/K2PceqdY
>>749695773I'm mainly gonna try to fix how the vocals sound so I got no hurry.>>749695979Dont be surprised I ask for more of your songs. This your first time editing?
Hope you're all doing well musical anons
>>749685829>>749685307One Ace Attorney fag is enough for the musical, we don't need two.
>>749696280I did audio mixing in Audition years ago, forgot everything I learned. I also prioritized timeliness so I stopped when I felt they were good enough. These songs:>Never Own My Games>Amico's Song>See You Later, EmulatorWere from the first batch of demos, everything else is a revision. Gonna see if I can re-record/edit I Never Own My Games, but chances are I won't get it done before the deadline. I have two other anons' songs I need to edit too
did anything happen with Xehanort Just Go Fuck Right Off? did the no cursing anon drop it
>>749696651>>749696635Kek that's one of the songs I already recorded and need to edit
>>749696651Nobody has dropped any takes of it yet
>>749696695our hearts are connected. great to hear it's coming
>>749696940just kidding it's a funny image though
>>749696265Thank you! The original song just repeats the same lyrics twice, so I didn't know if you'd be willing to sing more since I was trying not to ask for too much in the last days. We can either cut it at 90 seconds or I am happy to write a second verse if you would be willing to move things around (I would move some of the lines in the first line to the second for continuity). I can write it as soon as I get back to my house in about six hours if that isn't too late.Enjoy your dinner date! Your voice is freaking perfect for this by the way.
>>749692660It's very good!
>>749696940>>749697000Lol you're good. The song was funny
>>749697761I'm glad it got done for sure, Randy Neuman, Kingdom Hearts, that scene as a whole, it's just a great blend of stuff that works so well for parody
>>749661791(Game Ain't) Easy take 4https://files.catbox.moe/8omgoi.flacPlease let me know if there are segments that need retakes. I'm startin to go a little crazy on this one so I would appreciate other ears.
Shit shit shit I just found out about this since I remembered someone told me this happens around October. If it's not on the spreadsheet, I should be safe right? I've used audacity and can record but do I need to do anything else?
