DKC Atlas Forum

I'm a bit late as well... but Happy Birthday Qyzbud! I found this awesome cake which doesn't seem to want to show up properly, so here's a link:

Damn it! :x That really sucks. Ah well, just do what you can, and take your time if you need to. In other news, we're now calling everything "remixes" instead of "ReMixes." Which reminds me, we still need a name for the album. Suggestions so far (tell me if I missed one): Gorilla...

Another one (sort of)! Again, this isn't actually inspiration, but something else by David Wise. This time, it was composed after the trilogy. There's an unused track that Rare left in Diddy Kong Racing. I believe you can hear it in the hidden soundtest. Youtube vid The whole song will probably remi...

I agree, it is going great! I'd still like to help out in some way too.

I might have fixed the problem. I found out the forum was completely invisible to some people and changed it. If the forum asks for your name and password, enter your user name and the password you chose. When you try to enter the secret forum, it should only ask for a password. That's when you ente...

Anyone interested in helping with the Gangplank Collab? Maybe a stolen idea, but perhaps fun if many people did their part on it :) I agree, a megacollab would be great! I'll see if I can come up with anything. I'm not very good at making dance though. I guess I'll send you some ideas and you can a...

Cody wrote:Just curious, here: when do you expect a WIP?

I haven't set any new dates yet, so just as soon as you can. I'll PM you the forum password.

Cody wrote:Life in the Pines...

Nice. I 'd.

EDIT: O.K, my first WIP is up! Go and review it on the forums please.

Nope, no guidelines. =) Just as long as you make it from scratch (ie. Don't rip a MIDI or place instruments over the top of the original audio.)

Alright! Thanks Cody! :D And thank you for the banners, FranticFactory! Advertising time, methinks.

C'mon guys, I made the forum for a reason. Kong-Fu and Lampje are the only ones using it. I'll have my first Life in the Mines WIP up within the next few days.

Nice work on the new banner FranticFactory! I reckon that's good enough to use now. Any chance of a shrunken version of the Jungle one?

Ha, I like the GB one! Nice job!

As for the size, I think roughly 400x70 pixels would be good.

Cool. But it's still too big.

Yep, that's better! It's not perfect, but it's still a good job.

Test:


EDIT: Apparently it's a bit big.

Alright then, forget about the deadline for now. I'll sort something else out. Now that I think about it I'm not sure I can meet it either. :lol: Thank you so much for the banner FranticFactory! :D If you can fix the quality of the logo, that'd be great. Edit: I'm not getting my registration email f...

Another Announcement I have created a temporary forum to make it easier for project members to share their tracks with each other and give feedback. Link is here: http://z6.invisionfree.com/DKC_Remix_Project/index.php?act=idx Non-project members can join to and make suggestions about the project, b...

I can't really remember watching a lot of movies when I was younger. The ones that immediately come to mind are Lion King and Mouse on the Motorbike (not sure on the exact title).

Sorry Gnawzooka, Kong-Fu is taking Bad Boss Boogie off you.
(Updated first post. And I've got no idea whether you were joking about the title or not.)

Is there any chance Project Members can share their music or hear some WIP's from others aswell? This is a good idea; it's a nice way to have it feel like more of a collaborative effort, and will let project members share ideas. I recommend asking other remixers for a link to their track(s) via PM,...

I'd like to pitch in some designs... Maybe I'll take a break from our remix project. Oh no you won't! BACK TO WORK! :evil: Kidding By the way Jomingo, Kiddy's right hand (On the left of the avatar) looks a bit too big. Other than that it's really good. ;) Also if there's any artists stuck for ideas...

Maybe someone could do an A Capella mix for a bonus track or something.

Bad news everyone: cRAVE's computer just died, so he'll be unable to finish the track before the planned deadline. :( So that means Forest Frenzy is now open. If no-one else takes it I will (it happens to be my second favorite song in the game), but I've got a bit to do already. Speaking of which I'...

Kong-Fu wrote:Excused claims should be in yellow or something, so we know who has been excused.

I just left all the excused ones red. Missed deadlines are in orange.

Sorry everyone, I've only been on for very short periods of time for the last few days, so I haven't had time to update much. Here's how all the ReMixers are going (In alphabetical...): cfh - Safe CoolStyleE - Sent a WIP of CDC, but has since restarted it so the WIP I have no longer counts. Both tra...

Project mixes, however, I don't think Sockpuppet will allow. He said already he didn't want us releasing them before the project is done. ↑This↑ I don't want to kill any of the surprise. One thing I dislike about the OverClocked DKC2 project is that we've already heard at least samples of about 70%...

Oh, I just remembered something else! About a week ago my sister was watching Master Chef, and suddenly this music came on that sounded EXACTLY like a portion of Northern Hemispheres (DKC snow music). If the music was composed specifically for the show then it's definitely not an inspiration (I supp...

It's a possibility, although personally I think it sounds a little generic.

Kong-Fu wrote:9 more days until the deadline. Looks like lot of people will lose their claims.

Ah, I got writers block again! I've got ideas but I'm really having trouble getting them out. I've started Mine Cart Madness though.
Well this is embarrassing, me being project leader and everything...

I may be able to translate a few names and such. I've been doing Japanese at school for 3 and a half years, so I can read Hiragana, Katakana, and some Kanji. I know all/most the basic grammar rules too, and I may be able to recognize some words. By the way... (Cat O' 9 Tails doesn't appear in DKL2.)...

I voted for Dixie. She's my second favorite Kong (After Diddy).

Awesome, thanks Kong-Fu! :D That last song isn't actually part of the project, it's just there to fill in the breaks in the show. It's a pity they already previewed the best parts of the two tracks earlier, because it made these full songs a little disappointing. :( I love the orchestral bit at the ...

Sorry for the quadruple post, but no-ones posting anything, and if I edited the last post, the reply notification email wouldn't be sent... Can a mod please merge and delete them? The latest Radio Free Gamer has an interview with project coordinators Geoffrey Taucer and Bahamut, as well as 2 FULL tr...

Gnawzooka wrote:Hehehe, I'm thinking of doing Bad Boss Boogie a capella for laughs.

You can if you like. That would be... uh, interesting.
Kong-Fu: Here's an example of Acapella: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/185689

I think most people are doing some form of electronic music. cfh is doing rock. I'm trying to do something else but I'll probably end up using lots of synths too. I don't know what Qyzbud is doing yet.

I'm not sure. Can't you just export audio files of your 2 songs though? You can put the songs on Youtube if you like, but YT reduces the quality of the audio. It is possible to improve the quality by adding "&fmt=18" (without quotes) to the end of the URL, but you can't do that until s...

Squitter

The coolest animal buddy, with the most useful and unique abilities. Unlike most people I really like the web platform sections. And Krack-Shot Kroc is fun! =D

They will become free again and anyone can take them. The person who used to have it can't reclaim it unless they have a WIP.

ANNOUNCEMENT The DKC Atlas ReMix Project has been going pretty slowly so far, so we've decided to set the first deadline. I need everyone to tell me by the 15th of July whether you're still in or not. The first deadline will be the 1st of August . You do not have to finish the tracks by this time, ...

Yep, I like that idea! I've sent a PM to Qyzbud. If he agrees, I'll set the dates.
And this will, of course, apply to us too. Heh, I'm so lazy sometimes...

I know this is not the way to lead the project, but perhaps we should get a date where you must have atleast a WIP ready. Even if it's just a basic WIP, it's ok. Just think it's good to have a date because now it feels like this project won't ever be complete. Not saying you all don't care / don't ...

Sounds good CSE! But... . . . my CDC remix is gonna be a rap/techno song with some *cough* illegal *cough* ... *cough* maybe *cough* samples of cool beats. . . Uh... I hope that was a joke. I don't want anything illegal on the project. I fixed the first post as well. Candy's Love Song and Gangplank ...

Just 2nd WIPs of Funky's Flights and Fear Factory. Everything's gone quiet again.

Haha, it reminds me of Space Invaders! But I think I've seen something like that elsewhere...
I think this goes HERE though.

Hell yes! One of my favorite VG songs ever got ORCHESTRATED!!! I haven't even played it and I already know this game is awesome.

Sockpuppet, you received Demo4 + Email? Hope you like it, if you do, my track is finished :) Yep, I like it a lot! :D Congrats, you're the first to finish a ReMix! And you only joined really recently too. :shock: Don't forget to PM it to Qyzbud as well. You`re done already? I`ll rate it, on Friday,...

Guitar is overdone on GG. I for one would love to hear a happy dance version. I actually second this. :D It would be very interesting, to say the least. You can claim and dance-ify it if you want, Lampje. ;) Anyway, I found a WIP on Newgrounds from Crave01, who is doing the Forest Frenzy song. Are ...

I'm gonna finish the song this week. Then I might do another song if you allow me to ;) You can have Gangplank Galleon if you like. ;) Everything else is taken at the moment. Oh, I don`t care, I`ll remix any song. I know there`s only a few left, and Fruitcake (Smudge, if I`m Slappy, he`s fruitcake)...

Hm, I didn't get the name change one... ( EDIT: Nevermind, I found it) I got all the mp3s though, and I've sent you my comments on it. Good job! :D I'll edit the post again with the name change too. I find it funny that both your remix and the one on the OCR DKC2 album have a party theme when Cranky...

Actually, you know what CoolStyleE? I think we should just ignore the whole CDC thing and just give you the song. That's one problem solved, hooray! :D I've now heard WIPs from Kong-Fu, Lampje and Dixie, and I think I can already confidently say that this project will kick ass. Now if I could hear f...

I've actually got to log off right now, so I won't be able to get back to you until tomorrow sorry. Oh, and I forgot to mention, I don't think I can receive files over 5 megabytes (Yeah, ridiculously low...). I know I can't send that much so receiving is probably the same.

Sure, I'll PM both of you now.
