[tsc-devel] Fw: Fwd: Vanilla Dome Replacement...

Bouncing another gmail email to tsc-devel...



Patrick,

This was Sydney's feedback:
"I think it is a decent replacement. Perhaps a tad quiet, but otherwise very nice.
 Also, the intro of the song  ( very first) could be a tad smother, but it works. It may just be me.
 -Sydney"

I'm thinking it could be used a new underground song, but it probably could not replace overworld levels that are currently assigned to this music.  We'd either need a new song that works for an above world level that is currently assigned to the old music, or we would need to go ahead and assign those levels to other music tracks.  I know it wasn't clear for you when we told you about the replacement because the original song WAS used in an underground world in Super Mario World.  I'm sorry -- I should have been clearer.

In order to use the track, though, we will have to get a license confirmation.  You would need to state that you are fine with us using it under a license such as CC-BY-SA-4.0.  You can also request a license in which only we use it if you want.  We cannot use the song until we have a confirmation, though.  If you submit it through the forum, that will count as an automatic confirmation unless you say otherwise in your posting.  If you modify the song again, be sure to include a license confirmation for the modifications.

Patrick,

Thank you for sending a new song -- we've been short handed on new music for some months.

My initial thought is that the new replacement sounds a lot more ambient (if that's the right word) and otherworldly than the original.  The original Super Mario World track is used for an underground map in Super Mario World, while our remix of that Mario song ended up used in a number of overworld levels for our game.  Most overworld levels don't have ambient music, though.

I'm thinking we could use it; I'm just not sure as offhand where the best place is.

I also can send this to team.  For now I can sent them the download link; I will have to try to figure out how to post these files on our server for reference.
