MaestroUGC's Virtuoso Submissions *Nihil*

A PM, that way I can review it and post it, and I'll gaive anyone who plays their credit.

I just looked at your Dr. Mario arrangement. I really liked your technique of starting slow and then accelerando to full blast in the Mario Water level, but I really don't think it works with that piece.

Just my $0.02.

All hospitals have a waiting room...playing simple elevator music.

[Empathica1928]

Just my two cents about some of the arrangements, like in the Mario overworlds and all that...  I think the left hand parts in the middle of the arrangement could be omitted entirely and replaced with the original feel.  Like in Hop Hop Donut Lifts, when the left hand starts to play the lead that the right hand was playing, it loses a lot of punch that the song had.  When the left is playing the same thing the right is, and especially when the left plays a melody (like in HHDL), it just loses a lot of the rhythmic bounce and meaty sound in the bass.

Might be something to think about.  Just my observation.  Otherwise, well done.

Hop Hop Donut Lifts are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT WORK!

Deku Palace from Majora's Mask added...a very savage piece it is.

Birabuto from Super Mario Land 1 coming soon...maybe...

[Seeker]

I love it! Your best one yet, imo.

[KHRZ]

Good arrangement, I always hated the song though (Listened to it for 2 hours as kid trying to get past the deku platforms to the cage monkey)

[MaestroUGC]

Frustrations aside, you learn to love all music...despite lost time and horrible memories.

Question about the Lost Woods. There's a small discrepancy: It gives 150 by the tempo marking, but Finale plays it at 120. I'm assuming the 150 is correct?

[MaestroUGC]

Huh, well I checked it and plays at the right tempo, it just says 120, I don't know why though. So the 150 is correct.

[Taser9090]

Sorry I didn't reply for about a month, it's because I don't have internet. I've listened to Deku Palace, and it sounds amazing

Super Mario Land Medley added.

Happy Halloween. I'm really sorry this took so long to get posted, but I was having issues with Finale. I now work with 2010 so these issues are now resolved. Also, I want some reccomendations for two Final Fantasy Themes to arrange. Please only two unless I say otherwise.

Coming soon (I promise): Super Mario Galaxy-Final Bowser Theme

[Cobraroll]

Oh, Finale 2010...

Am I the only one who finds it retarded that Finale release an entirely new program whenever a new version is out, instead of providing a patch for the program you already have on your computer? It's almost like asking this question to consumers:

"You have to download a new program in order to view this file. Do you want to log on to our page, go through a stupid password retrieval process and download a very basic program you already have on your computer from there, or go to Google and pirate our most extensive product? Both alternatives requires an equal amount of time and effort"

I'll comment on the arrangement later. In half an hour, when Reader '10 is fully downloaded. If Reader '11 is more than just a patch for Reader '10, I'll pirate a higher product of theirs.

[MaestroUGC]

Ah, modern wit at its finest.
