Mario Theme song... LIVE and IN CONCERT

[Paul]

Crazy kids (http://homepage.mac.com/mrspleen/iMovieTheater6.html) I wish I knew how to play the piano...

anyone here want to demonstrate (http://individual.utoronto.ca/auyeun/vgsheetmusic.html) their piano playing skills for us?

there are a ton of good tunes on that page...

wasn't there a band that did old video game theme covers?

[Wickers]

I have a version of the mario theme... it's really good.

If someone would like to host it, I'll be glad to share it with you guys.

[Paul]

my iDisk's public folder ( http://www.mac.com/1/idisknewfeatures.html ) is open to the public, host it there and post the link... (usually http://homepage.mac.com/psantora/.Public/NAMEOFFILE.EXTENSION remember, caps count with HTTP)

audio? video?

[Wrao]

I was JUST playing the Super mario Theme on guitar, I just put the guitar down a second ago. I've been arranging the theme to be played as kind of a jazzy swing feel, it's neat.


Just watched the video: that's neat, I met a kid, he could play pretty much EVERY popular video game song on piano. it was crazy, and he played them really well. I remember asking him to play all these obscure themes from different mario games and zelda and he nailed them all.

edit: I haven't recorded any mario music yet, but I did record this Theme from Final fantasy 6 (http://www.icompositions.com/auditorium/showphoto.php?photo=2849&password=&sort=1&cat=539&page=1) mostly all bass, with some MIDI instruments.

Paul,

How would I upload it to your iDesk (using linux)?

[Paul]

ummm is there webdav support in linux?

how big is it? maybe you should just email it to me (under 5 megs?)

@mac.com would probably be your best bet...

[Wickers]

Ok I have a program that can access your idisk, it's very command-line-ftp like.
So, what is your iDisk's address?

[Paul]

iirc it is idisk.mac.com/psantora/public/
or some variation thereof

[Wickers]

it's asking for a username and password. (yes I am in the public directory)

[Wickers]

Nevermind -- not my day.

wasn't there a band that did old video game theme covers?

Yes, yes there is (http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/a/advantage/advantage.shtml) :)

[Paul]

Yes, yes there is (http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/a/advantage/advantage.shtml) :) :grumble: :( not on iTunes... I would have bought the album in a second...
instead I did a search on iTunes for Nintendo and came up with this (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=6187914&selectedItemId=6187894)... ended up getting both of their albums... :o pain in the ass iTMS... :p

[InactionMan]

The Advantage have a bunch of mp3s on their website. I think they're just crummy 128k files but it's better than a kick in the head with a frozen muck-luck.

Their site is worth of visit. It is truly awful. :D

Edit-And Live concert footage! These guys aren't messing around!

[InactionMan]

Alright, I just watched the Castlevania video and can now say with confidence that this is one the coolest bands I've come across in a while. The freaking rocked!

[Paul]

This cover is AWESOME!

just shot an email off to their label to see if they have any bands on the iTMS...

I've got the live concert that I believe was put on by the Japanese National Symphony in which they did the soundtrack to Super Smash Bros: Melee.

Nothing like hearing the Star Fox theme played by conservatory trained musicians.
:D

Wasn't there a Wired article a while back about these dueling Nintendo cover bands? I'll look into it.

Hey Paul, you got music ;)

Its an awesome Super Marios mix... had it for years in my collection...

I named it Super-Mario-Medley.mp3

[kraig911]

The Minibosses!!!
Check em out here they got MP3z (http://minibosses.com/)
If you like other classic nintendo game covers, their megaman and castlevania 2 covers kick ass.

[Paul]

ZO that medley was cool, you don't happen to have the ID3 Tag information for it do you? Who is playing it/arranged it?

[Paul]

edit: I haven't recorded any mario music yet, but I did record this Theme from Final fantasy 6 (http://www.icompositions.com/auditorium/showphoto.php?photo=2849&password=&sort=1&cat=539&page=1) mostly all bass, with some MIDI instruments.

wrao, whats the word on this? :)

wrao, whats the word on this? :)

what word?

are you referring to the final fantasy 6 world remix (http://www.icompositions.com/auditorium/showphoto.php?photo=6001&password=&sort=1&cat=500&page=1)?

that's the extended version, like 5 minutes long instead of 2.

I also recorded a version of the phantom forest (http://www.icompositions.com/auditorium/showphoto.php?photo=5981&password=&sort=1&cat=500&page=1) from final fantasy 6

[Paul]
