New "Music Arrangements Outlook" Article Posted: Super Mario 35th Anniversary Direct (9/3/'20)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Wednesday, September 30, 2020 - 08:42 PM


This evening, friends, I've finally snagged the opportunity to write our latest "Music Arrangements Outlook" article which focuses on certain installments that are currently on our radar at this time from the Mario 35th Anniversary Direct video presentation which was posted on Nintendo's YouTube channel earlier this month.

Could there be any possible Super Nintendo music style arrangement candidates on the horizon here as the months forge ahead? And could there be some possible happenings that might rock my planbook on the backend regarding certain featured installments that were shared in the presentation? You can all find out by going to this article which has just been posted tonight. Take care for now, awesome people! I'm out.

Special Shoutout: Tomoya Tomita and Konami's "Animaniacs"

Posted by Merit Celaire on Monday, September 28, 2020 - 06:42 PM

Snagging the chance tonight to do this quick special shoutout posting; the other day as I was checking through the timeline for our music operation's Twitter account, we came across this posting from talented videogame music composer Tomoya Tomita - it came with his showcasing all of the songs that he did for Konami's Animaniacs game for the Super Nintendo system. This is what he wrote in the tweet which he showcases the work that he did for it:

"This is the first game I've ever done all the music and sound effects myself. I was staying in Chicago when I did this."

I'm very sure that this also included creating the Super Nintendo music instrument set itself done for the Animaniacs game in which thanks to "insiders", I'm able to use to cover certain modern Mario game songs today including, but not limited to stuff from Captain Toad: Treasure TrackerSuper Mario Galaxy 2, and Mario Sports Mix. And this is the guy to thank for creating that music instrument set in the first place; so we definitely salute you for this special contribution to the videogame music fan community, Tomita.

Once again, make sure to check out this Twitter posting from him sharing the overall musical score he composed for Konami's Animaniacs SNES game itself. Also, on a side note, he was also one of the composers/arrangers for another Konami SNES game, Castlevania: Dracula X. And as if that's not enough, he was one of the lead composers for the Nintendo Wii game Wario Land: Shake It! (which I've also done SNES music style arrangements of some of the songs from that game, which you can check out here); make sure to check the musical score itself from there as well in general.

Finally, for tonight, the series of Super Nintendo music instrument set polls that I've been doing on Twitter recently will be focusing on the Animaniacs game; if you are a confirmed follower there, please make sure to cast your votes for it when I get the poll posted shortly. And for those who aren't followers of our music operations there yet, don't forget to submit that follower request so you won't miss out on placing your vote on the upcoming aforementioned poll along with other related ones that I'll be doing afterwards. Take care until next time, all! I'm out.

New Series Of "Twitter Polls" Begin (Targeting Featured SNES Music Instrument Sets)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Thursday, September 24, 2020 - 07:25 PM

Quick heads-up, friends: earlier this morning, we managed to start a new series of polls at the Twitter Portal area of these music operations which focus on the Super Nintendo music instrument sets that I have been using in my arrangement works here. For those of you who are confirmed followers at our Twitter profile page there, the first poll is up which focuses on the music instrument set that was done for Konami's Batman Returns game. If you haven't done so already, make sure to find that post in question asking about this specified set and place in your votes. As always, this poll will close in one week from the time of its posting.

More Twitter polls will be made targeting other featured Super Nintendo music instrument sets for these operations as the days forge ahead (one per day, Monday through Friday, except on major holidays), so stay tuned. Also, as a friendly reminder, if you haven't done so already, please make sure to submit a follower request on the same Twitter profile page so that you won't miss out on any new polls in relation to this subject. Thanks in advance, all; I'm out.

UPDATE (9/25/'20 - 8:29 P.M. (CST)) - As of tonight, the second related poll has been posted on our Twitter profile focusing on the featured instrument set of LJN/Software Creations' Spider-Man and the X-Men: Arcade's Revenge (as created by Geoff and Tim Follin, who also did the musical score for it). Make sure to cast your vote on that one too before the "one week expiry" time. Thanks again.

Recovering from Hurricane Sally; Where Things Go From Here (For The Rest Of This Month)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Monday, September 21, 2020 - 08:19 PM

All right, friends; yours truly is just giving you this quick follow-up posting to know that I made it through the "Hurricane Sally" ordeal that my area had to endure for the majority of last week (thank heavens). At this time for these music operations, I'm currently getting resituated; the following is what I'm trying to see about getting accounted for before September is in the history books come a little over one week from now:

(1) Music Arrangements Outlook Article - "Super Mario 35th Anniversary" Direct Presentation
As I have previously shared briefly in past entries before this one, I have along with all of you checked out this special Nintendo Direct presentation which focused on what's being planned to mark the Super Mario video game series' 35th anniversary. It's still in the plans for me to get an upcoming "Music Arrangements Outlook Article" posted regarding about what's being targeted for possible upcoming Super Nintendo music style arrangement candidates in the future (although nothing hasn't really been "finalized" yet on that angle). I'm just dealing with some other real life situations at this time; hopefully, I can get them sorted out so I can at least work on the article during the middle of this week. Stay tuned for any new developments that may arise here.

(2) Upcoming Polls for the "Twitter Portal"
If you haven't been following us on our Twitter, then you're definitely missing on a lot of stuff that gets shown in the timeline on your end! Recently, I've been posting certain poll stuff regarding these music operations over there (including, but not limited to asking about certain songs that I've done Super Nintendo music style arrangements for). But the next few days will be very crucial as I'm going to possibly be asking about the featured Super Nintendo music instruments sets that have been featured/used in the music covers that I've done for these music operations as a whole. So, once again, if you haven't done so already, please head for this page and submit your follower request so I can see about getting you approved from my end and allow you to see the latest Twitter postings from yours truly (of course, provided that you undoubtedly meet this criteria and are NOT just a "lurker" over there). Be on the lookout for those said polls via Twitter very soon!

Thanks once again for your patience as I still fight to get back in the groove especially after Hurricane Sally hit my area leaving destruction in its wake. To those who are viewing this who were also in the "strike zone" when Hurricane Sally hit last week, my prayers are with you as well as we all recover together. Let's stay strong; we'll obviously get through this together. I'm gone for now.
