Music competitions need some more love, and since winner of last competition has gone inactive quite a while ago, I am officially taking up the baton. And before any more delays happen, I'm going to make this short and straight to the point.

Title is self-explanatory, musical explanation below:


Your goal is to make a track that fits as a replacement for Koopa's Road theme in Super Mario 64. It has to be an original composition, but your challenge is to make it as loyal to the vibe present in the game as possible!

Deadline is set to July 16th, at 11:59 PM CLT (I will most likely be awake at that point, while keeping an eye to this). You have just about a week to get your tune finished, so be sure to give it some dedication. Good luck to anyone accepting the challenge, and have fun in the attempt~

EDIT: fixed an absolutely stupid mistake in my writing

This is a very difficult goal, especially for MFGG where there are very few experienced composers.

If we enter something in the competition, are we free to use it in the future for our own original projects? I started making a Koopa's Road inspired track for this, but I
already like it so much now I really wanna' use it someday in my puppet films. :whoops:

Feel free to use your Music Comp entries as part of a larger creation - fangames, indie games, videos, or whatnot.

I'd love to hear a new KPP track. I always enjoyed your work.

Here's my entry! Koopa Road is one of my favorite tracks in gaming history, so this was a lot of fun. I spent my entire day making this good lord what has my life come to

https://soundcloud.com/jordanunderneath/koopa/

(Btw I can totally post a version without the samples if need be. It's an original tune, I just couldn't help but add the Bowser music samples for fun :D)



@VinnyVideo: It seriously means a lot you enjoy the music Vinny! You were one of the first people to ever support me back when I started making music and sharing it here, long before I even had a career of any kind. Thank you so much for the always kind words. < 3

That's awesome! To add a little inspiration for this thread and reach out to gather more entrants, I thought I'd put a portion of your music to my Super Mario 64 gameplay. I used a Gameshark code to turn the ingame BGM off and just added your song in editing.



Of course a link to your full soundcloud version is being shared as well.

Thanks for the help, Pedigree!. And also a friendly reminder: the deadline is two days away. Love the current entry so far, and I'm hoping there will be more of those in the short meantime. All the support is appreciated~

You may want to give this a week extension and see if Vinny or other site staff will make an announcement on the main site to gather more entries!

You read my mind, hehehe. Vinny told me this could be an announcement on the index page after the Sprite Comp ends; so until then, we can extend this~

I'll see what I can make within the next few days to give KPP's masterwork some competition :)

edit - I buckled down and made something... It's meant to be sinister/epic and have a bit of new age Bowser flair. It's not finished ofc, but this will be my entry as of right now.

download me!

A very nice entry, here it is to some Super Mario 64 gameplay! Be sure to share it in an effort to reach more who might enter!

Ohhh Etch I freaking love it! The strings, the mix of sinister and optimistic vibes, and the cinematic variety of sound is magnificent -- I could actually see this one being in a legit Nintendo game.

My bad, this thing has been getting delayed, while I am inactive on my side. I'm giving this a 3-day extension, so that this gets settled soon for once as planned; that said, the new deadline is set to July 29th, at 11:59 PM CLT.

We encourage you to give this a shot, even if you aren't the bestest composer here. You do not always have to win; it's the attempt what counts!

Given it's past the deadline extension just now, we gotta move to the voting phase. Here are our entries:

King Piranha Plant: https://soundcloud.com/jordanunderneath/koopa/

Etch: https://instaud.io/16kT

Quite some nice-sounding entries we got here! It's hard to make a choice, but since I have to, my vote goes to Etch. While both entries fulfilled my expectations for this competition, Etch's got stuck in my head pretty soon after I gave it a listen.

Voting phase ends on August 2, same timezone!

I'm a big fan of both of them, but I vote for KPP.

We currently have a tie between the two and could use some more votes!
