You're brilliant for doing all of these! Do you think you could try your hand at 'Danger Zone'? Specifically the 'Highway to the Danger Zone' part :)

I tried this a few weeks ago, and got as far as uploading it before deciding it was too terrible to post publicly.  You tell me how bad it is.

XD I'm sorry. I feel some could be Mandachord-ed. Guess some are too tough. I'll try to find more simple ones for ya.

Maybe a visual aid would help?  This is Luigi's Mansion:

These are the notes you have to work with on the Mandachord, transposed into the same key of C minor:

Here's Luigi's Mansion again, annotated.  Orange notes are present but not in the same octave, red notes are not present at all:

It's basically chromatic, which means it hits several consecutive notes on the 12-note chromatic scale.  There's no way that's going to fit into the Mandachord and retain anything close to the same sound.  

The main theme of Sonic Rooftop Run has the same basic issue.  Here's how it goes:

It's in A major.  Here's the Mandachord's range transposed to the same key (the relative minor of F#):

And here's all the wrong octave notes and missing notes:

The bottom 3 notes, plus the C# towards the end of the second measure, are four consecutive notes on the chromatic scale.  It's anti-Mandachord.

I've had enough practice now that I can hear this kind of stuff right away.

I was wondering if you'd be able to turn this into a song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-0LWqa-UNo 
The beginning would be just fine if that's possible~
If that doesn't work out then I was thinking you could try at 0:33 seconds.
And if THAT doesn't work then maybe 1:10
Thank you in advance. :D

No, what you really wanted was the part at 1:24.

Thanks again, just curious was The Real Slim Shady doable? I keep trying to figure this Mandachord thing out but just can't seem to get it down. 

No.  Most rap beats end up really suffering from the missing Bb, including that one.
