4727 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!

This is one of those drum and bass song i have trouble with drums, melody seems easy Logistics - Over and Out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtx-hjPrRgs

There isn't much to the drums, just hi-hat as fast as possible with a sparser bass/snare pattern.  Your only choice is whether to make the bass/snare patter too fast or too slow.  I opted for too fast.

Over and Out (Logistics): Mandachord (Original)

Also this one has a catchy melody that i cant seem to figure out [ PV ] Porter Robinson - Sad Machine feat. Hatsune Miku [ dj-Jo Remix ] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW1ZaoMhp2w

Relative to its key, this melody uses almost the exact same notes as Over and Out.  Except Over and Out is in Ab while Sad Machine is in Eb.

The chorus actually has the right range, but I still have to murder it to fit in the Mandachord's five notes.

I'm not ignoring you, man, I'm just going down the thread in order.

Ok. Makes sense. :)

Post another request and I'll get to it when I can.  I didn't try any of the other ones because the first one on your list worked, and I have to limit myself to one per post to be fair to everyone.

Tried really hard, had to eventually give up :(  

Every section of it is close, but there's always one issue that keeps it from sounding close enough.  The simpler a song is the greater impact tiny differences have.

Can only do the verse

Bloc Party - Silent Alarm Album... Yes an Album.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sRxtvygyDo

Only one needs to work, right?, well you decide which is the best case scenario as you say or which is the most fun.

If there are multiple best case scenario then I would prefer in order of precedence:

This Modern Love

So Here We Are

Little Thoughts

Banquet

Helicopter

Thanks again! I love that album.

Were you able to "murder" Robbie Rotten's song? Just wondering.

I meant I would have to alter it beyond recognition, so it's not doable.  IIRC: While the original stays between the tonic and the higher subtonic, it includes four consecutive chromatic notes, which are impossible to replicate on a Mandachord.

Oh poo. Wish it was doable. If it were doable, would you have to set it in a different key?

I almost always have to transpose a song from a different key signature, that's not the problem.  Your song is not doable in any key signature's pentatonic scale.  If it were doable then it would be a different song.

If it's any consolation, I've already done a different LazyTown song.
