Title: package clock.groove - a StepMania collaboration?
Post by: Berserk Berserker on August 07, 2010, 10:43:55 PM
Okay, this is an unusual idea, but I think I know a cool method we could try and use to spread knowledge of our collective's musical talents across the internet, and that's through the power of StepMania. For those who do not know what it is, it's pretty much to dance games what M.U.G.E.N is to fighting games; an engine for creating, and playing "simfiles", which are essentially charts set up to a song. They can have a banner and background, music video, etc. You can also theme the interface, change the arrow design, what not. Bah why am I explaining this like its a brand new concept?

Commonly throughout the SM universe, people, either on their own or as a group, have often made themed simfile packs, usually 20-30 songs or more depending on the length, variety, how much they care, etc.

So, my plot is this, we create and distribute a CC-created simfile pack. We gather up some songs, making new ones or making cuts of already existing songs by CC members, and if we have some room for filler, maybe add some meme songs too (did we have any songs become popular here beyond Don't Stop Me Now, the duck.fla song, and Smell Yo Dick in between the last time I was active here?) as a joke just in case. But who will do the charts? If you don't do charts, I'm actually going to set this up so we can collaborate with my friends from another site to make this all possible. In addition, we'll need to do artwork for all the songs too, so this could bring out everyone's talent all at once.

I have yet to iron out all of the details (like song lengths, dimensions, DDR-style/ITG-style/Pump-style, etc), but I'm pretty sure this might work quite well if we do it right. So, is anyone interested?

(oh, and if you're wondering about the name, its an AS3 reference, much like stopAllSounds, goToAndPlay, etc)

edit: Also who moved this to the gaming forum? This practically involves music, and the music production forum seems to have been merged/deleted/etc?)

Okay then, dunno why this got moved into gaming since our involvement in this is more of the art/music side of the project

It was moved because this is more about the game than it is music. Yes, the game is a rhythm based one which requires music, but the actual project you're talking about is aimed more towards the actual game itself rather than just making music.

A dance remix of the Peggey Song is a must.

Here's Kidneybean's winning entry. (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/82009)
That'd do nicely for a Stepmania track.

I say we chart it for Guitar Hero or Frets on Fire instead.

Or just recommend me some CC songs to chart all by my lonesome.

We are.

I guess we need music, cause someone on the other site (well specifically, in the chat room) did not like any of the Peggey song remixes, which is a little sad cause I kinda had a soft spot for the rock one.
