December 2023 Greetings: Catching Up In This "Final Month" / Working On Final Music Covers of 2023

Posted by Merit Celaire on Friday, December 1, 2023 - 11:44 PM

Good evening, friends; yours truly has finally come back from work obligations since earlier today to get this "monthly greetings entry" written up to start this "final month" of 2023. Not to mention that as you all might have also been aware from late last month, this site was temporarily "offline/inaccessible" because our respective hosting account's bandwith allotment reached its monthly limit days before November came to a close. Hoepfully we won't run into a situation like this again during the course of this new month, but I'm already investigating and weighing options regards how to approach this angle going forward (as well as any "backup angles" should the site's bandwith allotment for this month run out again).

In other music operations related news, I'm already at work on the backend dealing with the final Super Nintendo music styled arrangement covers of 2023. As you can tell from the "Music Arrangement Progress Page", apparently there have been more songs from famed composer Motoi Sakuraba that have caught my attention between the Nintendo 3DS games Mario Tennis Open and Mario Sports Superstars. And although details are still under lock and key for the time being, at least one upcoming song cover may involve a newly featured Super Nintendo music instrument set. You'll have to wait and see what SNES game in question will be featured next in due time.

In the meantime, and as another quick reminder: first and foremost, we're still in a very great need to increase our follower numbers on all our music operations related "community portals". If you haven't done so already, read this article for the full details, then see about joining us at our Twitter (X) PortalDiscord PortalSoundCloud Portal, and our IRC Portal on Espernet.

Also don't forget that our "Song Candidate Submissions" online suggestion form still needs your involvement in helping me plan new possible Super Nintendo music styled song covers down the road, especially after our previous update involving the first batch of stuff targeting the score of Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Although not actual requests, you still have a say in helping me out on the planning process on what songs will hope will get the SNES music cover treatment in the coming weeks and months ahead.

That's all for now for this formal "monthly greetings entry" to start things off this December. As always, if you have any further questions after reading this blog posting itself, please don't hesitate to let me know; thanks again as always, and I'll see you awesome people next time around. Take care until then.

Quick Reminders of Correspondence Processing for This Coming Thanksgiving Weekend

Posted by Merit Celaire on Wednesday, November 22, 2023 - 04:49 PM

Hey there, good afternoon, all; I'm hoping that this next to final week of this month of November has still been good on your end of things. As for yours truly, I've been playing catch-up on music operations related correspondence and rechecking my planbook to decide what to deal with next on the music arrangement agenda after recently posting our first batch of Super Nintendo music styled arrangement covers focused on songs from Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

To the chase regarding today's blog posting: as you all know, tomorrow officially starts the Thanksgiving holiday weekend which means that for the most part, I'll be out with my immediate friends/family network dealing with holiday happenings for these next four days.

Which brings us to this reminder regarding any music operations correspondence that may be received between the dates of 11/23/2023 - 11/26/2023: please be advised that all emails received won't be able to be reviewed until during the course of this coming Monday (11/27/2023). This includes any general email correspondence from our main online contact form, the two online suggestion forms, and/or any join requests for our related Twitter (X) profile page, as well as invite requests to our server on Discord.

Thanks in advance for your understanding and patience during this upcoming Thanksgiving holiday weekend; I look forward to getting back in the groove full force for these music operations as a whole when Monday arrives. To those of you who are definitely viewing this post from the United States, I hope you all have a very awesome Thanksgiving holiday weekend with your family and friends; let's all stay safe until we get back in action again for the new work week (and the final week of this month of November). See you all later.

Release Weekend for "Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)" (And Other Important Related News)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Saturday, November 18, 2023 - 12:13 PM

Was hoping to snag writing this post for our site as well last night, but work obligations outside of here literally drained my energy after coming back home following my being out of the house for eleven to twelve straight hours yesterday. But better late than never right?

To the chase: as you all are already aware, this is the anticipated "release weekend" for the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch remake of Super Mario RPG which was originally developed for the Super Nintendo Entertainment system (full title being Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars). And although the remake of this special RPG installment is on my target list to play for sure, I must announce that this is one of those installments which as you can recall I gave a respective "PASS" on because the remake on the music front gives reference to the Super Nintendo original version; plus, the majority of the musical score itself is literally unique (thanks to Yoko Shimomura who poured in a lot of hard work on the music end). Add to the fact that according to this video, there's an option to switch between the "modern" version of said Super Mario RPG score as well as the Super Nintendo original version, and that confirms why I'm still giving this installment a respectful "PASS" on my music arrangement planbook.

That said, I still have to state to all of you here (including myself) that it does not mean that this Nintendo Switch remake of a very special installment originally done for the Super Nintendo console should be ignored; not by a long shot. This installment was the starting point for all other Mario RPG installments that were to follow after this including the Paper Mario series, and even the Mario & Luigi series, so when you get the chance, make sure to see about checking this Super Mario RPG installment itself on the Nintendo Switch console to check out what made the Super Nintendo installment of this same game very special (with some new twists for this modern version as well, of course!).

That's all for now, and thanks for your understanding on this. If do you have any further questions about said announcement here, please don't hesitate to let me know about it. Take care for now, all.

Special Poll on Twitter (X): Favorite SNES Music Styled Cover of Songs from "Super Mario Bros. Wonder"

Posted by Merit Celaire on Saturday, November 18, 2023 - 11:19 AM

Hey there, happy Saturday to all of you here at these music operations as a whole. Was hoping to have written this blog entry posting (and related happenings related to it) last night, but work obligations outside of here literally strained my energy like heck for twelve hours straight. But I'm here to post a very special Saturday poll involving some of the Super Nintendo music styled covers that I have recently posted targeting songs from Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

More specifically, to those of us who are confirmed and legitimate followers at our "Twitter Portal" profile page (which, is also know as "X" for reasons that I don't even understand at all): there is a poll waiting for your votes involving four choices fron the first batch of Super Nintendo music styled covers yours truly has done targeting songs from Super Mario Bros. Wonder (which, if you haven't already, can be checked out at this announcement). Like previous polls that I have done over there, the latest one related to this posting can be found here; don't forget that it closes/expires one week from posting.

The available choices from this batch include the following:

Dark Forest
Shining Falls
Underground Theme
Bowser's Rage Stage ("Wonder Course" Section)

It's currently being planned to do another poll focused on another part of the recently posted first batch of covers focused on songs from Super Mario Bros. Wonder, but nothing is final as of yet. If it does occur, said following poll will be posted there after this current one expires in one week.

Also don't forget that you still need to be a confirmed follower of our Twitter profile page to see this poll in question itself. If you haven't done so already, go here and submit the follower request to be under review; upon clearance, you'll be able to see the poll itself and cast your vote before the expiry occurs.

Thanks in advance for your time and support on this, everyone; see you all next time around. I'm out.
