okay gang, favorite Kirby stage theme (specifically the ones that are in multiple games, and most likely Super Star is one of them)

So, apparently WarioWare: Mega Party Game$ omits a bunch of Wario's vocal samples as heard in WL4-- which is understandable, given how the ones removed were all clips that are technically extraneous (when you work with WL4 for as long as I have, you learn these things). However, what I don't understand is why, after already taking out the "Good" vocal sample, they left in the one where he says "Luck!" The only thing I can think of is human error, or perhaps they planned on doing some vocal splicing with that and the "Hee!" to form "lucky", but unlike with WL4, which has compression lossy working for it, this sort of thing would be much more noticeable, so it's not too likely. Thoughts?

TIL that A Minor is all the white keys starting from A.
The fact that C Major is literally all those exact notes just in a different order is fuckin' crazy.

Why again do you always put your name in lowercase?

Apparently, not only does Twisted feature sounds also heard in Mother 3 and Metroid: Zero Mission, but as I just discovered, it has at least two of the samples from Mario Party 2, albeit in compressed form. Namely, it contains the recorder, the brass hit (most recognized from "Duel!"). I believe there's a third sample as well, the seldom noticed Brass Ensemble, but I can't claim to know the sample well enough to recognize it with enough surety.
There may be more then this, but I haven't come across them as of yet.

Is there a name for that heavy, buzzy sound that is used as the bass channel in many NES games? From a video about how NES music works, I know it as the triangle wave. Yet, when I produce a pure triangle wave at a low frequency on a tone generator, it doesn’t sound like an NES bass at all. Do you know more?

does anyone know where i can find samples of the individual syllables for Drifting Away
i'll settle for the uncompressed versions (a la Mega Party Games), but if you know where i can get the ones from in-game, puhLEAAZE tell meh

Just so you guys all know, a track of mine was accepted to and appeared on TimmyTurnersGrandDad

The pest control people are currently checking up on the house right now, and one of them looks like John Mulaney. The other one looks like Kenny from South Park.

Recently I found an extremely well-performed harpsichord cover of a music piece from Shovel Knight, and this got me thinking: have you ever considered using the harpsichord in one of your pieces? I know quite some game songs that would be really cool to use this instrument for as part of its soundfont.

It is genuinely baffling how MIDI makers will get notes in the goddamn lyrics section wrong when that's the part everyone and their fucking mother knows. Just now, I heard an example of this in a demo mp3 for a MIDI published by the number one paid subscription MIDI service. How did they not get fired???

condspiracy:. ben from nintendo video = caius loveday???

it's so weird to think that i've been using this same pseudonym for over half my life now
i literally have to be reminded that toa tahu is who i am named for it's become so instinctual.

Considering that it plays in real time, following a MIDI sequence; how in the HELL does The Moon's Lamppost actually work?

I wrote something on r/edmproduction that describes more-or-less how to put N64 instruments back together after exporting them with N64 Sound Tool.

It's honestly really obnoxious how good of an investment having a "Door Closing" stick has been.
