Mario Paint music

Remember that thing? That was gnarly. The heart was a bass
throb, the mushroom was like a little bongo, the fire flower
was a horn, the cat was a... meowing cat... the Yoshi was
that distinctive (and tres avant-garde) WA-POW sound, a
sound I never could comprehend... it ruled. I thought the
giggle-face was stupid though.

This site has a zip file of like 50 swinging little
tunes people made, as well as a midi of one of the main
themes that plays while you're drawing. Not as cool as the
in-game music game though... the actual ''soundtrack'' in
that game had that really spacey, idiosyncratic atmosphere
that was really distinctive, I mean I can't really think of
anything that sounds quite like the Mario Paint music. It
sounded kind of peaceful, but actually felt sort of sinister
to me... it gave me the heebie-jeebies, I'll just leave it
at that.

Anyway yeah, the music composer thing. That rocked. I used
to compose a lot of ''solos for three bassists''. Too bad
you were only able to assign three ''sounds'' per beat, I
had some pretty ambitious arrangements in mind, but could
never fully realize them. I bet there's a Mario Paint
plug-in floating around somewhere, right?

Yeah, the music that plays when you're making stamps, I'm
listening to it now... it's definitely goofy, but I don't
find it very ''fun'' or playful... it's just fucked up. It's
like the soundtrack to an anal probe in a really bright
white room.

I remember this! This and that bug swatting game were my
favorites. I listened to a fair bit of them, they're alot
better compared to the stuff I made when I was 12 hahahah.

hooray. great... games? I might still have this somewhere,
not sure about the mouse tho. Such a creative interactive
video game. I loved making animations with what... a whole 8
frames?

Mario Paint is amazing.

also, the music for Earthbound was pretty surreal. that
whole game was pretty surreal, though. definitely one of my
favorite snes games.

now that i think of it, i think my 3 faves were Mario Paint,
Final Fantasy 3, and Earthbound.

there is something I don't understand.

it plays from the beginning in winamp

Yep, the music in Earthbound (and Mother 1, too... a lot of
the themes and melodies in Earthbound are adapted from the
first game) is up there with the best music I've ever heard,
video game or otherwise. And I'm saving your avatar to my
''best XLT avatars folder''.

Fah- you should get to emulating it. It's archaic as all get
out, but I think it's stylized and weird enough to still be
fun.

I didn't like how there weren't really any sharps or flats.
Everything sounded like it was in a weird pentonic scale or
something. You can make some good beats with the sailboat
and mushroom, and speeding it up drill-style afterwards.
epecially if you use that "industrial" sounding low-pitched
metal clanking sound.

There's some hidden something or other in that game that my
friend showed me. I can't remember what it is exactly. If
you don't click and let the loading screen just keep going,
a bunch of graphics will show up with mario... and a star
flys by the screen really fast and mario tries to touch it..
But if you time it just right and click on the star some
kind of funky hidden thing comes up.

Also, I wonder how many kids used the four frames of
animation to create stick figure pornography?

The Electric Family - Mariopaint

Irdial did this years ago. For fans of the program, it's
real enjoyable.

i read the thread title as "mego paint music"
and thought they had released some metasynth type prog as a
parting shot

Yeah I heard. I've often fantasized about Mother 3. However,
my heart was saying ''yes'' and my brain was saying ''no''.
I kind of dread it. Whatever it is that made the first two
games special, it doesn't seem like it would be easy to
build on, or even just duplicate. And I remember the
repulsive screenshots of Mother 3 for N64.

But I'm still cautiously excited, I mean, it's a sequel to
what's probably my favorite game ever. Thank God Itoi is
still in charge and they didn't dish it off to some other
Nintendork. And when I went to the website and saw the new
logo, it did get my spine a tingling.

The WA-POW sound is to my mind the predecessor to "orchestra
hits" sounds, but with a cheeky 2-step feel.
