pabs Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just stumbled upon this today. The whole album is composed of tracks done with the sound fonts of the original Super Mario Kart for Super Nintendo. The track Aphex Peaks is a remix of "Bucephalus Bouncing Ball" and "4". Check it out! A lot of tracks on there are good, and it's a free album. http://soundsfromsci.bandcamp.com/track/aphex-peaks Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/75977-some-aphex-tracks-remixed-using-the-super-mario-kart-sound-font/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fahz0r Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 (quote) I've noticed that there are some things that I really, really enjoy listening to, but that I don't find anyone else making. So, under the name of anosa, I made some example songs myself, as well as a checklist. I ask of you, dear musician: make more music like this. Here's the checklist: -bigbeat and dubstep. (these two.. Fuck off.

Guest cult fiction Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 You can't stop at the first item in the checklist... Quote -bigbeat and dubstep. (these two go together perfectly, so mash them!) -dubstep in 3/4. (or 6/8. this works really nicely with the growling wubbing synths!) -repeated vocals. (it's fun!) -chopped breaks, in a funky way. (really this is quite common, so keep it up!) -jazz combined with dubstep. (I'm talking about the dissonant chords and weird progressions. none of that smooth jazz stuff. Why is this so impossible to find?) -distorted bassdrums. (especially if they carry a bassline/progression. luckily this is also pretty common!) -slap bass. (add for instant funk. FM bass is also acceptable.) -bit crushed chords. (or leads. the aliasing is delicious.) -vibrato. (especially on chords. especially on bit crushed chords.) -sax. (even fake sax is awesome. same for violins.) -weird chord progressions / sampled chords. (basically, just sample a chord and treat it like a lead synth. it's fun!) -disco sampling. (the world can always use more of this.) -insane sampling. (listen to the fourth track here. do stuff like that.)

I think that's just British empire guilt and a feeling of inadequacy for being proliferated by whiney synth pop emo electronic music until Americans invented techno and house, then you guys acted like the kings of electronic music and acted like we copied you.
