STBB #623

STBB Smash Brothers!

Optional provided sample is the full Tekken 2 soundtrack (every character theme and some other tracks). You can use two of your own favourite character themes from any other game, two from the tekken soundtrack, or one tekken/one outside to make a 'VS' themed beat. (For non-beat-em-ups, you can use any famous/identifiable music for the character e.g. music from the mario levels if you chose mario)

Either blending the two or making two flips is OK, bonus points for working in a 'versus' theme like one beat interrupting the other or something..

RULES
  • Flip any two game characters' theme music (e.g. Mario vs Ryu)
  • Doesn't have to be from the provided Tekken 2 soundtrack as long as theme is followed
  • All outside samples/instruments allowed as long as the two themes are the main feature
  • Having an "X vs Y" themed song title would be cool but is optional
  • No time limit.
  • One entry per person.
Sample download

FINEPRINT
  • Upload your beat to Soundcloud, include "STBB 623“ in the title, and post in this forum by Wednesday Midnight, Pacific time.
  • Give feedback and you will receive it back.
  • For easy browsing sake tracks will be reposted and added to a weekly playlist here: https://soundcloud.com/stbbcollection
  • Label entries that are posted after the deadline as 'late entry' and entries that don't comply with the rules as: 'non-entry' in your track title.
  • Vote in the designated thread by Friday at Midnight, Pacific time.
  • Winner: post new sample, rules, etc by Saturday Noon, Pacific time and upload the samples using https://wetransfer.com
Happy beatmaking!

Interesting idea. :)

I've just checked the Tekken 2 soundtrack and there's shit ton of material!! 1hr 44mins worth of a wide range of music. :shock: Can't complain though. :D

I don't know whose theme music is for who on it though, or what tracks on it aren't anyone's theme music, so if I flip two samples that aren't any characters theme music does that break the rules?

Hadn't thought of that! Gonna work on posting a tracklist below
Using non-player music (or even any outside samples) doesn't break the rules as long as two character themes are the basis

There's also a playlist of individual tracks here

might actually be better to flip through those for anyone who wants to use tekken (think I downloaded the wrong version or something I remember there being a tracklist in comments section but can't find a complete one, and it sounds a bit MIDIish :? )

Jun Kazama theme is missing, link here


End cutscenes (can also count as character music)
02:08 - Jack 2 cutscene
06:51 Heiachi cutscene

19:17 Roger cutscene
54:30 Nina cutscene

I believe everything else is non-character
Also there is a killer open snare at the beginning of Nina's theme!

Used someTekken 2 samples on the 1st half and ended up with a very afrobeat song and then some Gran Turismo music/fx for 2nd beat on more of the oldschool tip

Great sample-pack!

I took the piano part @15:00 minutes. And took chops from all over the soundtrack.
