To request a song, fill in the 'Answer this question' box at the bottom of the page and click 'Submit Reply'.

I'm still trying to do rounds once a week, but for the foreseeable future the actual day is going to vary because of reasons.  Contests will still be on the weekends on my YouTube Channel.

How to get my glyph:

Ground Rules:

  • Rounds are on Wednesdays
    • Everyone gets one, if I can.
    • If I've done a request for you then please wait two weeks before requesting another.
    • If I'm backlogged then I may not get to yours for a few rounds.
    • If you have a list then I'm only going to go through the top 3, so please try to narrow it down.
  • No "extended" music links, please, just the original one time through is much easier to work with.
  • If you have a particular section of the song in mind then make sure you mention it.
  • Please don't PM me with requests.  Just leave it on the thread and I'll get to it when I can. 
  • "Can you do anything from ______?"  You're going to have to narrow it down to specific songs for me.  I don't have omniscient knowledge of all music, yet.
  • I don't really take Shawzin requests; not enough time and something had to give.

Also check out:

Q : Octavia Prime is vaulted, how do I get the Bombast instrument set?
A: You don't, not until Octavia returns with the Prime Vault.  In the meantime, substitute these:

  • Bombast Percussion -> Gamma Percussion
  • Bombast Bass -> Beta Bass
  • Bombast Melody -> Epsilon for slow melodies, gamma for fast ones

TUNES

The OP was officially too big to update any more, so I have moved the song list into my comments on the first page of this thread. 

I had eight comments on the first page, so I re-purposed them and split up the song list into sections.  These links will take you to the specific comment, but they're all on the same page so you can still search for everything in one place.

Case study videos, showing my process:

Thanks, DE!

My god! Just checked a few of the songs i knew, and they sound so incredible.... but the most amazing part if the amount of musics you did on the mandachord O.O
And i've spent so much just to get a bit of Cordova Town acceptable.....
Well, i wonder if i can ask one music from you?
I would love to have the mandachord version of Great Wild music from nippon ichi games.

Here's the song! I would be happy, if you could try do it!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_5uNWisznY
I think the better-sounding parts for the mandachord should be around 0:20 - 0:28-ish and  0;53 - 1:01.

And, should the music be a bit of a problem for some reason, i would also like a lot to check how you perform the Mortvia Fountain from Castlevania Curse of Darkness!

https://youtu.be/y43-XAmK1kc?t=48

Thanks a lot! 

Sorry, there's no way the first one is going to work.  I can't make the second one work, either, but I had to think about it a little harder.

Can you do Accelerator theme? you can find it on youtube by typing in accelerators theme, or you can use this link. Any section of the song is fine pick whatever parts you like. Your work is actually mind boggling. Thank you.

 

I can do this part, but I gotta be honest.  This would drive me bonkers in-game.

Hi, thx for all these awesome songs, used so many of them! 
My first time requesting, could you do "Disclosure - White Noise"? If not, then any other disclosure song, noticed you don't have any yet.

Much appreciated.

I can do some of the chorus

That... surprisingly made me a bit happy, since i didn't managed to do it myself, not even a resembling sound, but i guess it was a lost cause.
Anyway, i'm glad you tried. Thanks ! =w=

River city girls-file select theme

So been looking through the river city girls ost for something that loops within the time limit of the manachord and has a close enough bpm. And I found this to be the best match (still going through it with a fine toothed comb-but I won't make another request until this gets done). I'd do it myself but I'd get the rhythm and timing fine but I've no sense of pitch whatsoever.

This song has a very steady percussion and weirdly the main melody is actually the bass. And what would be the melody are accompaniments to the bass.

Here's hoping more people request from the river city girls ost. Alot of it seems very fitting for the manachord (now if only we got an update that allowed more than a small loop).

Just got into Octavia and I'm loving these Mandachord compositions. Got two requests, if you can manage:

First would be Spinal Coaster, the main beat in particular. It changes a bit as the song goes along, but for reference's sake, the segment from 0:02 to 0:08. 0:20 to 0:26 has the beat with more percussion behind it if that helps as reference. It's fast paced, so I understand if this one's impossible to do on a Mandachord.

Edit: There's one version of this same song that is slower. If using the slower version would allow it to be translated into a Mandachord, that's totally fine with me.

Second would be Dark Samus' theme from Metroid Prime 3, the beat heard from 0:11 to 0:19 in particular. This one is probably more feasible by comparison.

 

Thanks in advance.

Dear Mr. Buff00n,

I would first like to express my wonder at all the work you do. To me, music is something almost arcane. I love listening to it, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to actually start creating it. Therefore, I truly appreciate all the music you peculiar lot create. And you, having created all this amazing music, almost seems as if Octavia's Mandachord is your instrument of choice. I guess, all I want to say is, keep up the good work!

Now, since this is a request thread, I was wondering, if you could perhaps see if anything could be done about an old favorite of mine. The track in question is coming from Heroes of Might and Magic IV, Floating Across Water by Paul Romero. Here's the link to the original version (in-game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkDXNSWJLuo

I honestly don't know if anything can be done with this track, what with all the instruments and the length of the song and so on. However, I have heard some good renditions of the song, made on single instrument like piano (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcJM5pEqrjo) or a guitar (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8toOUo4xnoA). Of course, this still leaves the question of length...

Be that as it may, I would greatly appreciate hearing this tune in any shape or form!

Thanks in advance!

Cheers

Hey, it's been a long time since I've last checked this thread out, as I've always ran with the original work you did on Owl City for me, almost 3 years ago.
You've done some impressive work since, and I thank you for it, while also making a second, humble request:

Could you do a (few) song(s) of alan walker's album?
Personal favorites:
- Diamond Heart
- Darkside
- Lost Control
If none of these are possible, I think Alone or Alone pt.II might be easier, although I haven't done an analysis of my own this time.

can you do the theme from Dirk Gently?

there's a sort of analysis of it if it helps

That's a super interesting link, but as a general rule, if it takes a music expert more than five seconds to figure out what scale it is then it's not going to work on a Mandachord :smile:
