I was having a go at an old favorite. See if you can guess where it's from. (It might help to set it up to loop)

(BTW, since it's MIDI, results may vary)

the song

is it rudolf the red nosed reindeer?


Chad(Posted 2005) [#3]
I have no clue but if I had to guess somethin from a horror movie, such as Michael Myers or something..

the disharmony suggests its something from elton john.

For the first half, I thought it might be from the soundtrack to "The Thing" (J. Carpenter's film).

...or are we talking about a game tune, here. (I'm using the term 'tune' very loosely here, obviously :)


Chad(Posted 2005) [#6]
Wolron, when are you going to tell us what it is.. it's drivin me insane!


WolRon(Posted 2005) [#7]
Sorry guys, forgot I made this thread. ;)

It's a Theme tune from a very popular 8 bit Nintendo game.

Give you a few more trys...

who the heck is nintendo?
Nintendo = what cavemen used to do before fire was invented.

Is it Final Fantasy or something? ... Dragon Quest maybe?


WolRon(Posted 2005) [#11]
...Didn't have no dental floss, we had to use old rusty nails
Didn't have Nintendo, we just poured salt on snails...

Weird Al



OK, well, I thought it would have been a lot easier than that. (maybe my song writing skills suck...)


It's the opening Title tune to:

Metroid


Chad(Posted 2005) [#12]
Oh I see.. well, I've never played Metroid, just Mario for Nintendo.


WolRon(Posted 2005) [#13]
YOU HAVEN'T?!? Man, you've been missing out on one of the all time greatest games.

Go acquire the game. Don't read anything about it (lest you spoil some of the experience) and play it now.

You mean this song?: http://www.nesfiles.com/NES/Metroid/mettitle.mid

I see that my version is missing a huge chunk of the tune...
