[quote=Paul Mann IV]You know what I don't get? The hate for Rock Man 10. I also never got the love for Rock Man 2 and I personally find that one completely overrated. Oh, so Pump Man and Solar Man aren't good enough for you? Wait until later when I can improve them, I guess, so I can shove the victory in your hypocritical faces.[/quote]

That's a real quote from me a while ago. Now enjoy whatever I made after a 10 hour shift and only getting home at six in the morning tired as hell.

I like how the one post where you mention that you're tired as hell is the post where I notice your avatar changed to this drowsy gengar.

More on topic, this is some pretty catchy 900bpm action right there. Nice work~

I don't want to be negative but I have to disagree with Pump Man. The tempo really bugs me, it makes the song sound really weird.

However, Solar Man is pretty nice, the only thing I'm missing here is some double bass drum action :P

My brother gave me an odd look when he noticed the significant tempo drop--to which I said "I aimed for a touch calmer feel and a slower tempo can achieve that". That's really the only justification I have for the slower tempo, to be honest...

I always wanted to cover Solar Man somewhat like this before, but didn't really think I had the skill to do it...what I would've LOVED to do is give it more of a guitar-duel feel, but this is as close as I could get without going into another week of experimentation.

Glad you enjoyed part of it--my goal with double song posts is that at least ONE of them is enjoyed.

Yeah, I immediately understood that you were trying to make a calm version of the song. The problem is that Pump Man is somewhat of a different song compared to Splash Woman, Aqua Man, Wave Man and maybe Centaur Man.
The instrumentation and the sound design of Pump Man is very specific and it takes you to a completely different setting than the other songs (we're not at the beach or the sea anymore). If I wanted to do a cover of Pump Man, I would probably try to make something more like this:
[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ousCiJzt888]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ousCiJzt888
However, trying out new things is not a bad thing at all! But I'm just saying, keep in mind what kind of song you're currently covering.


I personally think that it's better to spend time with experimenting than doing the same old stuff, because you'll learn so much from it.

"This ain't no beach, son." Quite literally the quote from my brother (he also mentioned that remix--which, might I say, the whole remix series is impressive).

I'll experiment with the next some just a bit, but I'm considering remaining in Rock Man 10 for a while--see if I can't get a few songs done in that one--maybe change the name of the thread when I get a few more done to match up with it more. My biggest challenges, at least for Robot Masters, will be Strike and Blade. As far as I'm concerned, I know how to handle Chill Man and Sheep Man. Commando and Nitro will take some learning, but I'm sure I can make something work out. Strike and Blade...the only thing I have is making Blade Man's song sound...more mysterious. That's about it.

Of course...I can only experiment when I have spare time, and I only have spare time when I have neither work, school, nor friend hangouts, so...my only hope this week is Thursday if I'm not called in.

The instruments? I have used those names since I started Speed 1. The most of NSFImporter I did was to get samples from previously made songs from other people easier. I mean, is that truly a crime?

No it's not it's just lazy but that doesn't matter because you're so badass.
