EDIT: HEY GUIZ I MADE THE DRUMS LOUDER AND THE PIANO QUIETER



While I was sitting at my computer, with the dread of another day just beginning to peak over the horizon, I realised that they haven't changed the Bombcast music since forever.
So being the creative guy I am, I "borrowed" the melody and made a remix, of sorts:

   
 
That piano is a lot louder than I intended, and the mixing ain't great, but you get the idea. EDIT: NOT ANYMORE!

Anyway, I got to thinking, whether you have some musical talent, or if  (like me) you just like to press buttons until something doesn't make you go deaf - what do you want the bomb to sound like?

Are you perfectly happy with the current musical ensemble, or do you demand an indie ska+house ballad that would make Rebecca Black blush?

I'm personally a little tired of the current rendition, but then again I've been hearing it basically once a week for over a year.
If that music had any subliminal messaging in it, it has either failed dismally, or succeeded in the most dangerous way possible.

EXTERMINATE

Just kidding.
Thoughts?

drums should be louder, and maybe ad a bit more edge on the synth.... I like the idea of the Piano being the lead for a theme

@Phantomvirus: Thanks!

@Laketown: 2 legit 2 quit

@TurboMan: You're not wrong. I'll probably fix the drums when I wake up tomorrow. Changing the synth means I have to fiddle with knobs... which makes me uneasy, for unknown reasons.

I also never liked the current one, so I would not mind them using this one at all.

Samesies on not liking the current intro music. Also it just seems way too loud. Sure I can turn the volume down but then compared to how loud the guy's voices are, yo the intro music is too loud. Me no like.

Personally still digging the current one, the bass on it is just so nicely mixed in there and the horns are just nicely timed.


This one is fine, but is a bit too chill in comparison to the current one. As TurboMan said, louder drums might help, and so would the current bassline (you could play that lefty on piano, but if it's in there now I couldn't hear it.)

I like it. My recommendations would be to turn the piano down a touch, the synth needs a harder edge (it should almost hurt a bit), more kick drum.

I like it! I agree that the drums need to be a bit "punchier". Also, I like the piano but I also agree that it may be a bit loud at first.

It is is a little bit too similar to the season 2 theme.  I so like the piano bits though.  Something like the Orchestral version of the 1up show theme would be good for the bombcast.

@TooWalrus: I'm kinda feeling that too, although it might just be my yearly song fatigue.

@GeekDown: It is my secret dream to have this used as the Bombcast intro music.

@Little_Socrates: Yeah, I made this on about 10% of max volume, but I'm certainly gonna flesh things out when tomorrow.

@Underachiever007:@slightconfuse: Those drums are forever a thorn in my side. DAMN YOU, FL STUDIO!

@Axxol: Thanks man! Hey, weren't we going to do some kind of collaboration at some stage? THE TIME IS SOON!

@buft: Then all we need is faux Vinny, Jeff, Ryan and Brad. And that's how you build a counterfeit Bombcast.

@Hosstile17: The piano is a real troublemaker. One notch up and it's too lound, one notch down and it's too quiet. I suspect my mixing woes will be resolved when I totally rework everything though.

holy shit thats good!


maybe make the drums louder and the synth needs a bit more body.

I love the ending especially, perfect for ryan to have in the back ground as he does the intro.

I dig this song. I've never been a fan of the current Bombcast tune, so I'll take anything over it.

It is great, like really cool, but needs more crazy techno like 80's sound effects. IMO

I want my Bombcast theme nice and cheesy.

I miss the bass in the original theme, it was awesome!

I love your WUTANG stuff, it's a great fit!

I miss the bassline too, but try as I might, I couldn't reproduce it well enough... so I gave up and made it simpler > ??? > profit!

Yeah, I can kinda see that! I wouldn't have thought of that connection on my own though.

Oddly enough, something about it gives me an Alton Brown/Good Eats vibe, minus a bit of the kitsch.

I had to google that to get the reference, but you're not wrong! I'd say he has more of a Twin Peaks vibe, if you've ever seen that. Very jazzy.
