4678 Mandachord requests fulfilled (rounds on Wednesdays)

[Buff00n]

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:

Spoiler

Glyph Code: BUFF00N (with zeros)

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.

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.

• Originals, Full songs, Warframe
• Classic Rock, Hard Rock
• Pop Rock, Pop
• Rap, Dance, Electronic
• Video Games
• Anime
• TV, Cartoons, Movies, Far East (K-Pop, J-Pop, etc.)
• Miscellaneous, Seasonal, Songs I Can't Do

Case study videos, showing my process:

• Octavia Prime Trailer
• Sleeping in the Cold Below
• We All Lift Together
• For Narmer

Thanks, DE!

Sachio theme from megalobox 

https://youtu.be/-BV_b9zTUvs

3 ft tall about 0:50 that beat

There isn't much I can get from just the beat, but I can do the chorus.

So I've managed to limit myself to three, which I'm listing in roughly descending order of "want"

Nonon Jakuzure's theme from Kill la Kill, notably the section beginning at about 1:05 https://youtu.be/gDvq9USBbUA

Seigi wo Shinjite, Nigirishimete from Symphogear G; I think your best bet starts at about 1:00 https://symphogear.fandom.com/wiki/Seigi_wo_Shinjite,_Nigirishimete (couldn't find a good version on youtube, but the wiki page has an audio file embedded)

Senkin Dur da Bla from Symphogear GX https://symphogear.fandom.com/wiki/Senkin_Dur_da_Blá (again, no youtube, but audio here)

I can do something with one of those

Senkin Dur da Blá (Senki Zesshō Symphogear GX): Mandachord (Original @1:09)

Oh, could you do "Time to Make History" from persona 4? Just whatever section would fit well with the format.

I usually have good luck with Persona tunes, but I can't make that one work.

Hey Buff00n, me again, could you try to do the refrain's part of this song? (basically the 10-12 seconds from 00:45 to 00:55 more or less), it could bring some hilarious moments XD

Haha what the hell am I listening to

My thanks! Symphogear has lots of excellent music, but it doesn't seem like very much of it translates well to mandachord

Not sure if this is workable... or If I'm posting on the correct day? But the section here from 0:12 would be pretty nice.

I don't have a Shawzin request thread, for the simple fact that I currently don't have the time to give everybody one.

Can you do Regular People by Pantera?  

[Gylaan]

Hey, I'm trying to work on some of these on my own while I wait out the two weeks, and there's one in particular that I got the melody and bass off a piano transcription, but I'm having trouble picking out the drum line. Do you have any tips for that?

[GuppiBot]

Could you do https://youtu.be/1rwAvUvvQzQ?t=353?

There's nothing in there I can do on a Mandachord, or a Shawzin for that matter.

Could you do the opening to Photographic Memories by Steam Powered Giraffe?

Generally, when I'm figuring out a tricky rhythm I find that physically counting on and/or tapping my fingers on the quarter notes helps a lot.  That and tons of practice.

Snare is usually the easiest to hear and figure out.  I usually start with that.  Hi-hat is also relatively easy to hear, but it tends to have a lot of dynamic range.  I find myself just picking out the loudest hi-hat and cymbal hits and leaving the rest out.  Bass drum is usually the hardest to pick out; in a lot of music it tends to get confused with the bass line.  Sometimes listening to it on crappy speakers will help muffle either the bass line or the bass drum and bring out the other one.

Honestly, the vast majority of percussion parts I hear follow a handful of common patterns.  The one I did for 'Senkin Dur da Blá' combines a couple of these patterns with a break on the fourth measure.
