Around mid-May, Omni showed us this little gem that had been floating around the internet:

The song itself,
Kumikyoku "Nico Nico Douga", is a 10-and-a-half-minute-mashup of various Japanese anime- and video game-themes.
Here is a table of all 33 songs in
Kumikyoku "Nico Nico Douga":

List taken from KumikyokuWiki (http://kumikyoku.rintaun.net/wiki/Kumikyoku). Times are approximations.
you have no idea how goddamn frustrating it was to get that table right
I had originally thought of remixing it myself, but I realised that this would be impossible as I'd run out of riffs before I'd even reach halfway (even with my DragonForce remix, most of the riffs was the "solo" section), so a couple days ago, what with the Quade/Pillage TIMGUL Mix on the horizon, I thought to myself "why not have another collab mix?" and decided that it could be one huge TIMGUL-collab-remix!
If you want to take part in this, here's some things I'd like to clarify:
The original
Kumikyoku "Nico Nico Douga" is at 180 BPM. I'd like it this to the be the same for the TIMGUL Collab Remix. Of course, Music 2000's tempo's a little off, but it's barely noticeable.
With some of the sections being a few sections long, you can do adjacent sections (for example... sections 19 through to 24 as one track).
You choose the style that it's remixed in; it'd be great if this was as musically diverse as can be; so pieces in rock/metal, pop, dance, trance, DnB, the lot!
Also, obviously, as it's a TIMGUL Remix, It has to be made in software from the MUSIC/MTVMG series.
You can "reserve" sections that you want to remix, but if one or more people have the same bit reserved (let's say, User A wants to do #5-10 but User B wants to do #10-14), that's no problem; (using the example: so long as User A does one part of #10 (like, I dunno, the drums only) and the User B does that rest. This "overlap" would be great as it would serve some form of transition between one user's piece of the remix to the next. An maximum overlap of about 2 sections would be best.
I'll write up a second list of the sections below which I'll edit everytime someone reserves a section:
KEY:

Reserved, but acts as an overlap.

Once you've finished the section(s) you've reserved, simply email them to me at flappy <DOT> thirteen <AT> googlemail <DOT> com and I'll compile them all up. Once all 33 sections are remixed, I'll post it up in a new topic for all to se-I mean, listen!
NOTE:
When submitting your completed sections, save the mp3 as "<starting section> - <ending section>.mp3" and tag it as your normal artist name (Don't worry about the album name, it's all going under one track afterwards. ;)) (for example, "03 - 05.mp3")
Oh one last thing; these'll help you loads:
mp3 (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=B4HVM33P) of
Kumikyoku "Nico Nico Douga".
MIDI file (http://kumikyoku.rintaun.net/dl.php?f=2243f7311bb7ea624a7d96a11d316063) of
Kumikyoku "Nico Nico Douga". Open this up in something like FL Studio/Reason/whatever program can open MIDI files and lets you see the notes and use this as a reference. NOTE: it only has the main melody and what I think is either the strings/chord or bass. Any other backing melody that's in the MP3 but not the MIDI you'll have to figure out, I'm afraid; that MIDI file's the "full version".
So who's up for this?
(maybe
this will help me get out my creative slump :P)
Sounds cool, will check out ASAP.
Cool idea, love experimental projects and this sounds like fun. I would like to take part in this if it ever gets started.
And if it does, I call dibs on 'Folk' Song by Sakura ;) LOL
I'm not quite experienced with MG yet, to recreate most of these songs, but I'll probably choose another section for fun later if most people decide to do this just to experiment with some of these styles. :)
Sounds awesome, but I didn't knew there was a riff limit in Music 2000? I often have like 300-400 in MTVMG before I do a "Remove Unused Riffs". Or did you mean sound memory for samples or the 24 channels limitation?
