Hello, wonderful people!

This is stitch, and I am ready to give you some of the goods you’ve requested.  I will apologize for the wait.  We wanted to keep the updates diverse and the music updates were outnumbering the others.  This is still cutting it close but I’ve wanted to show you a couple of tunes for a while now so here they are, along with the original pieces (which I encourage you to listen alongside to).

The first one was one I promised you a long time ago.  This one, I wrote during that October Fanfest a few years back.  I hope you find my version of MOTHER’s “A Ghastly Site” to be uncomfortably pleasant to listen to.

Here is the original A Ghastly Site:

And here is the remix:

I also want to say thank you for all of your email requests, although I have some good and bad news about that to be mentioned later on.  Here is one of the tunes I randomly selected to revamp!

The original Get on the Bus from MOTHER 2 (Earthbound):

When I remix or revamp something, I always think it is necessary to add a creative touch of my own so that it is not just a repeat of another song with a different sound. I hope you will have an open mind for this one!  Here is the revamp of Get on the Bus:

There we have it!  Now, for a few things I would like to say;

About the emails, I started to get so much mail from many things not only concerning MOTHER 4 that I lost all of these requests and questions…but the good news is – if you still want to know something or hear a revamp/remix in the future – I advise you to tell it to me via Twitter!  I recently made a Twitter account mostly for this purpose and it will be a fun way for us to stay in touch.  So, please fly by and I’ll be here to talk and I will be taking your music requests and questions via Twitter now.

Here is the link to my profile; Follow @shanemesa
I am using my real name here, instead of my alias “stitch.”

On another note, every time I make one of these updates, you will get to hear 2 (two) revamps/remixes. That’s 2 per update!  If your tune did not get picked then I encourage you to restate your request.  If it comes up enough I will be forced to tackle that request instead of drawing a number out of the hat.  But please refrain from spamming.  =]

Thank you, all!

So much!

Hello, everyone!  This is “stitch,” of SNOBODYS, talkin’ ’bout music today.  I have a few tunes to share and some things to talk about!  Sit down, have a listen and let’s talk!

So, do you remember me talking about the Fanfest project some years ago?  During that time a good handful of music was created, including a few “remakes.”  I remade Mt. Itoi and A Ghastly Site from the first MOTHER game.  You can listen to the original Mt. Itoi right here to compare with the remake below:

I will have to post the remake of A Ghastly Site (my personal favorite) later.  For now, I would like to open up a discussion of what/how we do.  I won’t say anything yet, since the inner workings of the ways of music may only interest a select few…SO, we’re taking any questions you may have!  Please write to the M4 mailbox with all of your questions about the music, us, how we make it, influences or whatever it is you may want to know!

I am also opening up requests for song remakes of anything you may want to hear!  If you would like to hear a remix/revamp of an original MOTHER tune, let me know which one and how you want it!  Orchestrated?  Techno?  Surprise?  Please send these requests to the email adress listed above.  Thanks!

EDIT:  All of your emailed questions will be answered in the next Music update along with the randomly tackled remix for your listening pleasure. Thank you again!

Stitch here again; that’s right I finished the piece!  Sorry it took so long, I had a lot of things going on like finding a place to live and moving in to it.  After a few minor adjustments and, of course, an ending I give all of you this mp3 for download.  Enjoy…

A Secret:

Back in ’09, some (very short) time before the annual Fanfest in October the Azure team decided to take a whack at a project for submission.  I won’t go into much detail but basically I was asked to “make this, this, and THAT, remake these, make something that would do this…” and such and such.  The project was never finished.  It might have been possible in the very short development period but we will never know.  Nevertheless I was able to cough out a handful of pieces, originals and remakes.  We may use this music in MOTHER 4 but I think it is well deserved for you awesome people to hear them since they were not originally intended for the MOTHER 4 project.

Here is one; a techno based tune called Harvest Pass.  You can imagine what the piece might be describing yourself.  Enjoy.

Hi!

This is “stitch” of SNOBODYS, Lead Music and Sound Concept from the MOTHER 4 dev team.  We are finally chiming in to keep all of you wonderful people well fed with MOTHER 4 material!  I will continue to throw things like this out here every so often…

So, today I want to share with you the very first piece of music I made (for video games in general) for this project.  It is an unfinished tribute to MOTHER music.  It was only meant to be a submission to the MOTHER 4 team in 2009 to “show what we got.”  The sound quality is half-way decent but it is worth listening to since this tune will not appear in MOTHER 4 at all.  I had no intention of finishing the piece at the time and I do not know if I ever will…what do you think?

THE MUSIC

It’s day number 4 of the NCFC! And today, we’ve got a bit of music for you all the hear. Take a listen to the fruits of labor SNOBODYS and Roger Levy have produced. I like to think of them as ear candy.

Click to the beat!

And of course, we have another screenshot to share with you all.
