7th Anniversary Statement
(Originally Posted on February 23, 2017)
NOTE: This is the same statement that was posted on our previous site during the course of last year; thanks to a previous backup that we had from earlier last year, we were able to see about transferring its contents to this document for our records and to also formally start our "Anniversary Statements" section for this year on our current site. The contents themselves still remain unchanged; read further for last year's statement itself.
Better late than never regarding posting our "annual statement" for our music operations overall, which as you already know has reached it's 7th anniversary. But it seemed that the Lord wanted me to wait to write this entry right now for good reason because a few days ago, I managed to snag the time to create this image inspired by a certain TV news spot I've seen a few mornings ago which also matches what I want to share further. You can view that image itself in question behind this entry's jump.

So here's the image that I have created to help mark and commemorate our music operation's 7th anniversary and correspond with what we have to say regarding these music operations overall as we prepare for the rest of this year. And it says this:

Our formal statement to mark our music operation's 7th anniversary; inspired by the latest video promotion from CBS News (http://www.cbsnews.com) aboutt their shows and news reporting in general. Read below for more details.
The image shown above was what I created to help mark our music operation's 7th anniversary as well as mark our stance for this year itself. And amazing, this was inspired by a recent promo video I've seen from the folks at CBS News (http://www.cbsnews.com) a few morning's ago in terms of their stating about the "changing of America's leadership" and how they are approaching the reporting of it. They specifically said this near the end of that video advertisement promoting their shows:
"America's leadership has changed; our mission has not: Honest Trusted Original Reporting"
Why do I say this? Because that's our stance as well, but in regards to what we're up against for this seventh year handling these music operations. Make no mistake about it: the Super Mario videogame series as a whole is changing all around us thanks to recent installments like Super Mario Run (for mobile devices - iOS and Android), as well as our first two upcoming installments for the soon to be released Nintendo Switch console come March 3rd, 2017 (in the forms of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Super Mario Odyssey on their respective scheduled release days). And while we all have to prepare for that change itself on all angles in general when they come, our operation's mission is still going to be the same: find the best song candidates from those said installments and give them all the best Super Nintendo music style arrangement treatment! Yours truly has been doing this ever since the Wii family of Super Mario (and branched) videogame installments, along with the others done for WiiU and Nintendo 3DS. I am obviously not going to stop selecting candidates from those batch of games (they are still some waiting for me to deal with in my planbook's backlog to do Super Nintendo music style arrangements for, especially on the WiiU installment end!). But the bottom line is that we'd better be ready to add the Super Mario games for the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices in the mix as well when the time comes (and believe me, I will be ready; it's going to be an awesome time when I begin to share stuff from this angle with you all).

With that said, I do have to say that although my operation's mission has not changed, the said "changing atmosphere" from the Super Mario installments recently added/announced in general are giving me hints that I still have to prepare to add some new "Super Nintendo music style arrangement strategies" to the table as well. As I have stated in previous entries numerious times, although my "traditional methods" of the arrangement process will not go away any time soon, we've gotten word that there has been some "criteria" met that has given me clues to get ready and have those new "strategies" in place on the backend. I still have those details under lock and key, but I can state that this was stated after hearing certain musical scores from Mario Kart 8; now it seems that Super Mario Run has to be added to that mix as well. But mark my words: I will be ready to meet those said challenges head on and share them with you as well; I just need to find the time and get the materials together.

In the meantime, I can still announce once more that I am still hoping to see about geting back in the Super Nintendo music style arrangement groove so that I can tackle my "starter set" backlog regarding the musical score for Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash (a new featured Super Nintendo music style instrument set is going to be used for certain songs from that WiiU game, by the way). However, I can also announce that I am currently preparing to get some stuff together so that I can see about targeting songs from the upcoming Mario Sports Superstars installment for the Nintendo 3DS (and rumor has it that I have to get a new Super Nintendo music instrument set together in the process too to try and match the energy of some of the songs from that game as well!).

Bottom line: the atmosphere of the Mario series itself is changing, but our excitement for it has not... and that includes my doing the Super Nintendo music style arrangement procedures for them. Ready or not, everyone, we're bracing for an awesome ride here which'll only accelerate further when the Nintendo Switch system and the first two Mario game installments get unleashed in due time starting in March (when the Nintendo Switch console gets released worldwide). And once again, let's not forget about the upcoming Mario Sports Superstars as well. Can't wait. I'm out for now, everyone; take care - here's hoping for a fantastic 7th year of Super Nintendo music style arrangement goodness involving Nintendo's modern Super Mario (and branced) musical scores! Later, friends.
