So today also went well, we went over both the opener and ballad. Also I hate it when we're forced to do excersizes led by the percussion, as that is almost literal torture how much work that is.

So today (well, today when I'm writing this,) was the first day of band camp. Was fun, I got to meet the freshmen, we had more than last year. Plus no one threw up at all today, which was surprising. Plus I sold a trombone today, and am taking my A Clarinet in for repairs later today.

So, this will be my final year of band camp. I'm writing days 1 & 2 in advance, and will post the drafts when I'm able to. So yeah, I'm predicting this is going to go well, even if we only got the music today. (and it was promised to be ready over a week ago. =P)

If you were asked to score a Bionicle movie/video game/piece of media using only pre-existing musical pieces, a la 2001, what would you pick? Alternatively, what's your headcanon music for Bionicle? Post what specific character, scene, location, or event the music pieces are used for. Mangaia- Krzysztof Penderecki's "Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPtP2gGGBCw Ko-Koro- Philip Glass' "Etoile Polaire (North Star)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_oKSkHyDxQ Onu-Koro Highway- Brian Eno's "Lizard Point" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRa3oId_d-Q Matoran- Steve Reich's "Music for 18 Musicians- Section 1" 5:18 in video

I notice we haven't had a character/song topic in a while (and I can't seem to access the old ones in the archive), so might as well ask: Do you have certain songs that always remind you of Bionicle characters? Or of particular moments in the story? I always think of Lewa when I hear "Crystals" by Of Monsters and Men. "Earth Intruders" by Bjork has a very Bohrok-esque feel (Bjohrok?) "Bring me to Life" by Evanescence is overly melodramatic and often the subject of memes and mockery these days, but I still stupidly love it since it reminds me of Mata Nui in the Ignition arc. "Never Let Me Go" by Florence + The Machine makes me think of Matoro's sacrifice, as does "The Last Day on Earth" by Kate Miller-Heidke. Any other ideas? If we get enough of these, we could even make playlists for various characters. Which songs remind you of Bionicle?

I decided to remake and remix a couple of the official Bionicle themes into one with the help of a friend, and here are the results! The Toa Return (Bionicle 2015 Theme) on Bandcamp, or Soundcloud (if you prefer).

Since two new LEGO Ninjago promotional songs were just released by The Fold, I was curious which of their Ninjago songs from over the years were people's favorites! To date they've released 15 original songs along with four remixes of the theme song The Weekend Whip. Since the number of answers per poll question is limited, I split it into two questions: which is your favorite promotional song, and which is your favorite version of the theme song. Links for those who haven't heard the songs before or want to refresh their memory: The Weekend Whip Born to be a Ninja Ninja Go! A-W-E-S-O-M-E Rebooted Tech Whip After the Blackout Full Digital We Are Ninjas Spinnin' Out In Color Eye of the Storm The Anacondrai Whip 21st Century Ninja The Ninja Roll Enter the Tournament Back to Ninjago The Ghost Whip Bring on the Pirates We Are Ninjago Anyway, feel free to share your thoughts! EDIT: Link added for "The Pirate Whip"!

I'm looking to expand my horizons in music a bit. Anyone have any suggestions of good songs I could listen to? GET OFF MY LAWN! ~Tekulo <3

I enjoy hearing some festive songs on the radio for about a month every year. But what I am getting tired of is the feel of the same old Christmas standards sung by the same standard artists from a few decades ago. I know there is a larger variety out there, just look at my Christmas music collection, but I wish the radio would realize this too. Now, I realize the radio has some newer things. Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights is a good laugh whenever it's played. The Waitresses have their Christmas Wrapping song that is pretty catchy. And there are a few standards by contemporary artists like Michael Buble, Pentatonix, and a special favorite The Calling's Carol of the Bells. (Oh, and don't forget lots of Trans Siberian Orchestra.) But the radio can do better. The Barenaked Ladies, Relient K, Colbie Caillat, and more all have their own renditions of favorites, and I'd like to emphasize that there are also some great original songs out there too: Elf's Lament by BNL, Chrion Beta Prime by Jonathan Coulton, and Lumberjack Christmas by Sufjan Stevens come to mind, to name a few. Would it hurt for a little more variety, dear radio stations? It sure would be nice. -CF

in honor of the late Scott Weiland, last week I ordered the remaining albums I needed for my collection by Stone Temple Pilots, the band he was best known for as well as one of my favorite bands of all time. the final album arrived today. from top to bottom: - Core - Purple - Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop - No. 4 - Shangri-La Dee Da - Thank You (CD+DVD limited edition; greatest hits compilation also featuring an exclusive track, of which )- Stone Temple Pilots (Target exclusive limited edition) and that's it. unfortunately in the band's 20 year career they created a fairly small discography, but what a discography it was - yes, some albums were weaker than others (No. 4, Shangri-La, and the 2010 self-titled reunion album are usually thought to not live up to the standards of the first three) but all of them were enjoyable and good in their own way. the band does technically have one other release - an EP recorded with, of all people, Linkin Park's Chester Bennington on vocals following the dismissal of Scott Weiland from the band in 2013. I personally don't consider this a true Stone Temple Pilots release and prefer to pretend it doesn't exist. there's also some side-project stuff (Scott's work with Velvet Revolver, Art of Anarchy, and solo career; the DeLeo brothers' Army of Anyone; and the mediocre STP-minus-Scott project Talk Show) but the only one of those I've bothered with is the first Velvet Revolver album. while all the musicians in Stone Temple Pilots were talented in their own right, when taking on other projects they simply never matched the incredible chemistry that they had with one another.

I'm planning a third installment to my Wildlife Combiners series, which will be called Creatures of Okoto. I'd like to make a video for the project, and what can I do to make the video special? Well, I decided to make a soundtrack for each Region. I've got some concepts for all six regions of Okoto, but the Region of Jungle is already a full song, and I'm going to share it here to hopefully get some feedback. https://soundcloud.com/nascentmusic/region-of-jungle/s-qCl4X The idea is that this could actually be played in-universe, by the villagers of each tribe. And I'm trying to capture the spirit of what I imagine each region to be, so the Region of Fire's soundtrack will be a heavy, fast song, whereas the Region of Water's will be slow and passive, etc.

There is a game project I am assisting with by Unown Mercury, and so far besides me, there's a spriter. But while he might be able to mess around somewhat with LMMS, it would be waaaaaaaaaay better if we had an actual composer on board! So anyone who's potentially interested in partnering with him, I suggest you contact him through PM. Just keep in mind that the position will be unpaid.

What is your favorite song or piece of music from BIONICLE? It can be a real song used for commercials or a piece composed specifically for BIONICLE. It's a tough choice for me. BIONICLE has made me a huge AIK, All-American Rejects, and Cryoshell fan.

Hello people. I am about to upload a music mod for Crusader Kings 2 as part of a series of Roman-themed modifications (flag change, country rename, music). I had been set to upload it, but then I found a song that I thought could be in the song list as well (I'd have to replace a song, but I always found it kind of annoying so I am good). I could just put the new song in the place of the one I am going to replace, but I am kind of thinking it could be the new main menu song. Original main menu song part 1 part 2 (I spliced the two together). Possible new song Now, the main menu song will play on repeat and sometimes play in-game. So, does anyone have any comments?

I was wondering if anyone could give me the name or a link of the music that plays here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZo0RT7s9VU Really like it, but I need more than a little blurb. Thanks in advance!

So today was the ending of the first day of band camp. I JUST MIGHT get to finally have a day 6 entry, if it isn't possibly bai, unless I make a weekend entry. So we started random wearing of things week today because will will wear our band tshirts hopefully next friday. So the section costumes/stuff/clothes/whateveryouwannacallit were: Picc/Flutes- superheroes Clarinets- Clarinet Mafia Alto Saxes- "cool" (as in Prez(Tenor Saxophonist Lester Young)-made slang, not cold) also long socks for whatever reason. Tenor Saxes- as above Trumpets- "nerdy looking" Mellophones- Mello Yello Trombones- spooky scary skeletons who send shivers down your soul wearing skin for all but two. Baritones/Euphoniums -their section leader was sick. Sousaphones-I don't even know.

So for today of bandcamp, we got (most) of our drill for the opener, and also were told that we are being told tomorrow what to do about going to watch a DCI competitition near us, DCI North Alabama, as a number of us bought tickets through our band director. So if any of you reading this are going, hai. And Zox before you say I contradicted myself, I never said how long of a drive.

Yay RGBlog is back with a bang, with me having been at a Doctor Who Convention this weekend woth a few other peole I know there too. So in band camp today, I learned that having a dairy product in breakfast before marching is a horrible idea, as I was one of 11 people who threw up, other than that was pretty good, with the usual meeting people again and tons of iinjokes,(especially me being in every section, so I have MOAR injokes.) , fun, and marching all at once.

I was inspired by the soundtrack in the recent Bionicle commercial to create my own rendition of the music: Skeletal Dread Also, if you are interested, here is the image that I made for use in the thumbnail of the track:

We all know the bionicle theme from the power pack, that one song that got used in the MNOG and it became the theme song for the toy line, but there's one thing that's been on my mind. Is the chanting at the beginning of the chant simple nonsense or was a real language used for it?
-
So what's your favourite bionicle music? Whether it be the sounds of Cryoshell, the soundtrack of the movies, or even the sound of G2 post them here.

okay so it's a few days late but that's the postal service's fault. I almost pre-ordered this from their UK webstore for about $40 USD when it was first announced. thankfully I didn't, because less than a month after it was released, I was able to get it from Amazon for $20. great set. I'm pretty sure the DVD is region-locked so it won't work for me, but I bought it for the CDs anyway. I'm a bit iffy on Judgement's remastering, but it's still great to finally own these albums, especially in a package as nice as this. the case is pretty much a hardcover book, and while I didn't get pictures of them, the actual pages inside are pretty cool. full lyrics, artwork, and credits for each of the albums plus some additional commentary and information. I also own a physical copy of their latest album Distant Satellites which I probably could've shown here, but maybe I'll save that for when I have more of their albums and I can do a collection post.
