The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

[mastersuperfan]

Someone else can swap with E. Gadd. I prefer to remain on Wednesday to Saturday for reasons that will soon be evident...

Also, yes, post it here. I wanna give it a try.

[SlowPokemon]

I do have a quiz ready if no one minds (also I'm not scheduled for two weeks so that should give him enough time)

[mastersuperfan]

Wait, isn't Lux scheduled for right now, though?

[SlowPokemon]

You think I have the common sense to check the schedule

As a member of NSM I only do the minimum amount of research for any post I make

#1 should have triplet swing instead of dotted quavers (you know what I mean?), but it shouldn't make too much difference. Also, #3 is very obscure, just warning you (it's from a popular franchise though).

The spinoff round that no one asked for

Nothing too hard, just some Pokemon songs (unsung; pedants back off) that I like.

EDIT: Added the MSCZ files and fixed the trill problem in #5 of the actual round

Number 2 sounds so familiar. And I know a game number 4 is in, but I can't remember if it's from that game originally or not.

Can we make as many guesses as we want?

EDIT: I found the game number 4 is originally from.

Ahahaha the 5/4 for the spinoff round made me guess what it was before even looking at the notes xD

I'm pressed for time right now, but I feel good about recognizing all the Pokémon ones. PMs to come later!

Sure, I don't see why not

so iconic I know what it is too

Can we all make sure that we're double checking our melodies against the original track and not just transcribing from memory or just kind of lazily by ear (or copying another arrangement)? There are so many discrepancies in this game so far and even one note that's incorrect can make a difference

[mastersuperfan]

I recognize #2 and #4, but I figure those two are the most obvious of the bunch.

Also I used #4 in your spin-off in my own round... guess I'll have to change that. xP

#1 sounds so familiar, but I just can't seem to pin it down.

#2

Battle! (Reshiram/Zekrom) - Pokémon Black and White

Timestamp: 0:18

Plays when battling Reshiram and Zekrom. Also valid: Kyurem's similar battle theme.

I KNEW I HAD THIS IN MY ITUNES LIBRARY BUT IT WASN'T THE ORIGINAL GODDAMMIT

I tried to transcribe what I heard from the original tracks, but I do apologise if some parts are inaccurate (For example, the trills are kinda unnecessary in #5, but I tried to represent the vibrato).

Also I used #4 in your spin-off in my own round... guess I'll have to change that. xP

Haha sorry about that


EDIT: Oh I just realised the trills haven't been transferred properly into Finale. That would make #5 slightly more difficult. Please use the mid file for an accurate playback, sorry.
