Already posted a lot of this information up to a few of my YouTube buds and to the FamiTracker forums, so I guess posting it up here wouldn't be too bad of an idea either.
I decided on making an album in the same vein as Chiptuned Rockman (although I haven't thought of a name yet; suggestions for that would be nice if you have any!). So far we've got 9 people in on it (including myself), complete with an album artist (CadmiumRED, from the Mega Man Time Tangent fangame) and everything, and I'd like
at least a few more remixers working on this (that is, if you're capable of making 8-bit music).
Before I do anything else, I'll throw down the guidelines that I gave to everyone else doing the project.
We're going to need to say which song we're remixing ahead of time. Just go ahead and post what song you're doing in this thread if you want to be a part of this. If there's a song in dispute I'll either notify both people or the person that requested to remix the song first gets it (oh, and I plan on doing a remix of Proto Man's Whistle from MM3! ).
Spin-off Mega Man games, like in the original album, won't be a part of the album (example: Mega Man X). Game Boy Mega Mans are fine, and so are spin-off game themes that are for original Mega Man characters (example: Roll's Theme in Marvel vs Capcom).
Songs will be in an MP3 format (if you don't want to go through the trouble of making an MP3 just go ahead and give me the .NSF and I'll convert it for you), and we'll put them in a .zip file or something, complete with album artwork (again, by CadmiumRED) and all other CD-booklet things that are usually in these sort of albums.
Here's the tracklist so far (in Mega Man chronology, newest themes to oldest):
1. Kevvviiinnn - Wily Stage 3 (Mega Man 10)
2. Baiisilisk - Chill Man (Mega Man 10)
3. IroncladPhazon - Solar Man/Sunstar theme (Mega Man 10/Mega Man V)
4. commandycan - Magma Man (Mega Man 9)
5. OmegaManZX - Intro (Mega Man 8 )
6. diehardxg2 - Burst Man (Mega Man 7)
7. RushJet1 - ???
8. MexicanSunflower (mex) - Mr. X Stage (Mega Man 6)
9. danooct1 - Game Medley (Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge)
10. NewAgeRetroGamer - Gemini Man (Mega Man 3)
11. MC Jimmy - Flash Man (Mega Man 2)
Like I said, I'd at least like a few more, so I'd really appreciate it if you'd go ahead and post if you want to be a part of this!
This thread can also double as something for progress. If a remixer has a work in progress they want to present to the rest of us, that's fine, but if the piece is completed I'd appreciate it if it were PM'ed to me through either RockmanPM, YouTube, the FamiTracker forums, or through AIM (Screen name is commandycan). CadmiumRED can also show the progress on the album artwork if he feels inclined to do so.
Also: if you know anyone that might want to be a part of this project, be sure to post about it!
Hope you enjoy the finished product when this is all said and done!
