These are pretty sweet! Do you by any chance have the .mid files for these? Particularily the Super Paper Mario ones? I've been looking all over for midis of "Castle Bleck" and "Today's Story," among others.

Actually, as I said in the topic starter description, the source files are in "tracker" format (specifically .IT; I use ModPlug Tracker to do this stuff). If you have any further questions about this, please don't hesitate to send me a PM. :)
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (*FILE UPDATE - NSMB Wii*)

Hey there once again, all; my huge apologies for this thread being so very dormant. Blame it on school obligations that have occupied by brain like no tomorrow; thankfully, the Fall term is D-O-N-E, DONE for the current school year on my end, and I'm just taking care of "unfinished business" in general. And part of it is these operations here; can't wait to get back to the music in general.

Okay, so this "news update" post is targeting two things, and they're both in relation to a certain SNES music style arrangement targeting the New Super Mario Bros. Wii musical score - specifically, the "staff credits" music in which I used the Plok! instrument set for (and it still ranks way up there as being one of my "personal favorites" that I've done since the middle of last year).

First, I was checking through my "source file" for said SNES music style arrangement that I did and saw that there were a few slight "modifications" that needed to get made. I snagged the time to finish the update during the course of yesterday; the newest version is live as of today, which you can listen to here. On a side note, I have noticed that all the links here are mainly in terms of listening to the files in general; you're not able to download them. If you are interested in downloading this and/or any other existing file I've done for this thread, you're able to find them at the home base of operations.

Second, speaking of the "home base of operations" (which I still encourage you listeners/followers to check out and join the forums area, we need you folks discussing this stuff over there too, and it gives me encouragement that there are others who do appreciate this stuff!), I've still yet to hear from you folks into giving me your assumptions why this SNES music style arrangement of New Super Mario Bros. Wii's "staff credits music" is a personal favorite of mine since the middle of last year. Once again, this entry at my "home base" of operations overall gives more details on this case because I really want to see about adding more general content there when 2015 rolls around. Read that, then follow the link to the forum topic there to post your responses (if you have an account over there; if not, register for one, please, so that you can place in your assumptions so that when the time comes for me to post that entry as to why this arrangement I did is a personal favorite, I'll see if your assumptions match my actual answers! :P )

Okay, I have to end this here and begin to attack my backlog even further. As I was writing this, I was checking on any potential candidates in regards to New Super Mario Bros. U; can't wait to get the first batch out of the way when I get through here. Take care, all; I hope to hear from you all again soon on this thread and at the "home base" over there. Thanks again in advance for your support for these operations. I'm out.
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (NSMBU Arrangements Now Live!)

New Year's greetings, everyone! Happy 2015! I was hoping to make this "music update announcement" last night but I was super tired and was celebrating with the rest of the family in bringing in this new year itself. Anyway, as of last night, I have posted my final update of 2014 - it's 16 new SNES music style arrangement additions targeting the musical score of New Super Mario Bros. U! This batch also adds another SNES music instrument set to the mix of the ones that I use in rotation from time to time, and it's the one created for the game Castlevania: Dracula X as developed and published by Konami. I'm very sure that you'll understand why I chose to use that said set for the latter part of this list, which I'll post below. The newest arrangements that I've done as of last night include the following:

Epilouge, Part 2 ("The 'Retreat', Part 2/The Castle Siege Is Over!") (Castlevania: Dracula X Arrangement)
Staff Credits (Plok! Arrangement)

Once again, if you're interested in downloading these and other existing files that I have here on this thread, you're welcome to head for my home base of operations and get said files that way. As always, if there are any problems in accessing these files, please don't hesitate to let me know via PM or via reply to this thread.

Thanks all, and let's look forward to these operations staying strong for 2015! I'm out.
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (MINI-BULLETIN on Two Cases)

Hey there, everyone; got two quick news items to report for these operations.

First, the "Master List" document of file links on our OpenDrive account has been updated since a few hours ago (I just snagged the time to place an annoucement here). You can check said document in question by accessing it from this link. Once again, I've noticed from a few months back that these aren't "direct download" links on that document; if you are interested in downloading said files, I recommend you folks to my home base of operations and do said procedures from there.

Second, my operations are currently on a temporary "hiatus" as I'm trying to investigate other venues in trying to get the word out about it. It's closing in on the five year anniversary in about a little under one month, and it looks like I may have to prepare to "do more" in order to keep this operation alive. Keeping fingers crossed, but I'm still optimistic about the coming possibilities. Stay tuned, all. I'm out.
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (*QUICK BULLETIN - POST #78*)

Hey Mer, just thought I'd say that I'm keeping up with this if you ever decide to release more music. Great job thus far! See you around, paisano!

Believe me, I'm still on this "operation"; I've just been STILL dealing with circumstances as of late. Hopefully I'll post more details as the weeks forge ahead on this thread.
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (Still Alive! 12/29/2015)

Oh my heavens! Operations wise on this thread, I can't believe it's been almost one year and this has been collecting dust all this time?! Yeah, it's definitely been long-time-no-post around these parts (especially on this thread)... even to the point of some folks thinking "is this thing that M. C.'s doing really dead?" Well this post is the answer that no, I am seriously not dead, and neither is this operation I'm doing. But other "personal situations" have been getting in my way ever since my last actual update before 2014 came to a close; not to mention that a certain part of those situations have attempted to kill my enthusiasm for this thing... and I mean literally. Obviously, I won't say the "details" about them here, but I will say that I have been (and still am) feverishly sorting them out so that I'll be back at full strength for the 2016 year itself when it comes.

However, that does not mean that I've been sitting idly on the sidelines either. Case in point, during the past one to two months, I've been getting back into the "SNES music style arrangement groove" (albeit slowly) targeting the musical score of Super Mario 3D World. The bulk of my "first batch" of targets has been done on the backend; I just need to target two more (they're simple ones; no, I won't disclose what they are), then I can see about finally doing the "finalizing" of these files to share with you all before 2015 comes to a close in just a few days.

But before I can proceed to post said files for you to check out, I have two important things to deal with "operations wise", which is the actual announcement, which I'll detail below.

(1) The "file links" themselves on the backend which hosts my music stuff for this thread has gone through a "restructuring" since a few months ago, and as a result, the download/counters for them have been reset (which tell me how many times you all have downloaded/viewed the said files, also telling me which installments have been of high interest to you all, music wise). To that event, I'm going to have to take the files themselves offline temporarily and reupload them again so I can get the new links and update the topic starters for this thread. In the meantime, you're still able to see about getting the music files that you're looking for at my "home base" for these operations overall, which you're still invited to check out and also join the forum community there (which we still need new members to this day, but that's for another day; but please don't hesitate to join us there too).

(2) You may have noticed that the "header images" for this thread may have changed slightly. There's good reason for that: first, the previous image host was going through a "restructuring" themselves and as a result "terminated" my account that was hosting them. Thankfully, I have an alternate active image hosting account which brings me to number two: it also came at a very interesting time since after nearly six years, the "header images" themselves needed an update. The past years had me using materials corresponding with the Super Paper Mario installment. Now they're using the hand-drawn materials that coincide with the "modern" Super Mario series' overall (which for the most part, most of the icons involved for the new header images I've uploaded to the alternate image hosting account that I have were also featured as correspondence to Super Mario 3D World, which is the very same installment that I'm feverishly attempting to finish up the "first batch" of SNES music style arrangement targets for! I know, it's very insane.). Anyway, as stated earlier in this post, I'm definitely looking forward to sharing the "first batch" of SNES music style arrangement stuff targeting the Super Mario 3D World musical score very soon after I finish updating the existing links on the topic starters and "finalizing" the files that I have currently on standby.

I do apologize if this is a really huge wall of text, but the bottom line is that I'm still here and preparing to get this back into action full force before 2015 is over. Watch for it. I'll keep you all posted, of course; however, if you have any further questions about said announcement I have here, please don't hesistate to reply on this thread or send me a PM if there's something that isn't suitable to be shared publically on this board itself. I'm out for now, everyone; I'll see you all later.
 
Re: M.C.'s "Mario Music" SNES Arrangement Gallery (1st Update of 2016!)

All right, everyone on this thread; I got two major things to announce on this thread before I turn in for the night (and they're both good ones!).

First, and most importantly, the "music arrangement update" drought is finally over after a little more than one year of "personal turbulence matters" on my end. As of tonight, brace yourselves... 38 new SNES music style arrangement files from yours truly have been added that target the Super Mario 3D World score. The said new file links can be "revealed" by clicking the "spoiler" button to show what I've targeted in this "first batch".

Which brings me to the second announcement - along with this, all existing file links have been fixed in the topic starters for this thread, so you all should be able to access the files you're looking for via this method again. As always, if you have any problems with accessing the files in this post (or the topic starters on the first page), please don't hesitate to let me know on this thread or via PM immediately so that I can look into said cases presented to me in a timely manner.

Thanks so much for bearing with me throughout the course of the past year because as I briefly stated, it was turbulent on my "personal end" of things, and boy do I mean really, really turbulent. But here's hoping that the odds will be better for this part of the operations for this year (and here's also hoping that tonight's music arrangement update for this thread won't be the only one for this year). Take care for now, all; I'm gone.
