Featured Music Nominations/Discussion | 98.5 SMW Music Appreciation Station

Link Thread Closed
LttP overworld is featured!

Also, in case you weren't aware, you can submit more nominations after your old ones have been decided on! Just don't post more than the suggested 1-3 at a time. Keep 'em coming!
Sonic The Hedgehog (Genesis) - Green Hill Zone
I know this song is overrated and all, but Dark Mario Bros did an astonishing job porting it and I thought of nominating it for lulz. The new port sounds close to the original version.

EDIT: Nominating Mega Man 9 - We're The Robots cuz Mega Man music never gets nominated :( The real reason for nomination is that it's a terrific remix using underused MM7 samples. It's also been used quite a lot, even though it's never got featured, unfortunately.
I have a Discord server as well! (by joining, you agree to the rules)

+1 for we're the robots.

going to nominate a slew of songs, here:

WarioWare DIY - DIY Shop, by Lazy. while it might not sound like the most out there crazy port, it's a very accurate rendition of the catchy original.

Ribbit King - Lavatron 3, by musicalman. insanely accurate port of a gamecube song (the original is here). not much else to say but it's just off the shits.

Crispy - Not Really, composed by Crispy and ported by Lazy. it's such a dreamy and pretty song. one of the best if not the best original song i've heard used in an overworld before.
i would also like to feature these song!

I'd like to nominate these two amazing Touhou ports.

Updated the thread.

Touhou 2: Story of Eastern Wonderland - She's in a Temper!! has been declined due to the rather empty nature of the song in general.

Touhou 1: Highly Responsive To Prayers - Now Until The Moment you Die has be declined. However, it can be feature-worthy with more polishing and tweaking.

Mario Kart 64 - Rainbow Road has been featured.

I'd like to nominate musicalman's Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze - Scorch 'n' Torch port. Amazing use of ADSR for instruments, nice bright custom samples, great balance in mixing, and great use of modulation imo. Coupled with the sheer amount of accuracy to try replicate what was done in the original, I'd say this is a pretty faithful port of the game's song and definitely meets the featured requirements of standing out.
Major thanks to Suika Ibuki for layout!

I'll nominate dansalvato's Tetrisphere - Phony port. The source song is really good and it's a really faithful port of the original.
finna nominate this tbh

I didn't have any knowledge of this banger ass port until I played JUMP 1/2 and got to the level this played in (very great level btw, and the music fitted the cute vibe of the level like a glove), but goddamnit do I love it; the demoscene vibes here are simply unreal (probably because it is a actual demoscene song lmao), and it's just done so freaking well, especially since the song is actually mostly unsampled except for a few edits of some SMW samples haha

probably the closest alternative to a Sinc-X compo that is actually released on the music section too :V

Scorch n' Torch, Phony and Complicated have all been featured!

Bag Raiders - Shooting Stars has been declined on the merit that, while it's a very cool song, it's interspersed with sections that stand out with a lack of polish, and it's ultimately held back from being feature-worthy as a result.
I'd like to nominate Etrian Odyssey - The Capital of Shinjuku. I feel this port does an amazing job capturing the original's atmosphere.

I'd love to write more about why I love this song but I suck at words

also I want to nominate the JUMP soundtrack,, except i can't because rules are rules


Nominating Super Mario World - Athletic (Hills & Mountains Remix). It conveys country/western atmosphere very well. I'd also like to say that it's one of the best remixes of SMW I've ever heard!

Etrian Odyssey - The Capital of Shinjuku has been rejected, though it's a fine port it just didn't stand out much as feature-worthy during our deliberations.

Everything else, though, has been featured!
once again nominating something aaaaaaaaaaaaaand it's another Sinc-X port :V

I already put out my thoughts on this song in the link tbh, but god damn it's so good, and I just love the prog influences in this so much; the port is very good as well, especially for unsampled, so yeah, it's why I'm nomming this lmao
