Instrumentations and/or Embellishments for MIDIs That Aren't Mine

Deff Leppard

Song covers in the style of Wario's GBA titles. Source material can be from anywhere.

Waamixes: songs that are essentially the exact same as the original, but feature Wario soundfont(s). 
The waamix designation still applies to songs that more-or-less match the source material, even if the given MIDI has been heavily edited or doctored.*
Waarangement: songs that use the Wario soundfonts, but also sound sufficiently different from the source material: in the case of tracks that used a pre-existing MIDI, the song is considered the source material, not the .mid. 
Examples of waarangements include "Bad (Mario)", "Doodlecture (WL4II Doodle Woods)", "Fury Rock (WL4II Fiery Cavern)", and so on.

To best exemplify this distinction, compare "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Wa" with WL4II's Toy Block Tower, aka "Ob-la-di Obelisk". 
'Ob-la-wa' is a waamix, because it features WL4's instruments, and changes the drums a bit, but is functionally the same as the original song. 
'Obelisk' on the other hand is a waarangement, because its sound is wholly different to that of the original, due to the addition of swing, parts of the original TBT's drums, etc.

* Examples of this rule would include "I'm Only Sleeping in the Row", which sports a thoroughly repaired melody line and a split-up rhythm section, but only because the melody line was highly inaccurate, and WL4 can't handle so many direct voices as the rhythm section was asking for.

hMMmm lotsa goohd songs

The first 111 tracks are taken directly from my pal goawayface's Likes list, because that man has exquisite taste in tunes, and as such serves as a fab test audience*. 
From track 112 up until around 125, it's me trying to predict which would end up on his list, which is harder than it sounds, because sometimes he'd throw me a curveball. Yer gonna be goddamn sure that it's a highlight, though, if it's on here.

*Or he did. Fat fuck ghosted me >:( for being a needy cunt, granted :/. but it made me a better person in the long run. I'm still needy don't get me wrong, but I'm less obnoxious now than I was. Doesn't mean I don't still wish he had chosen a method of excommunication besides flat-out stopping ;(

Deff Leppard -Pour Some Sugar On Me (Guitar cover)

Whales is too easy to mash with, I gotta find something else to do.
I am going to type the words Undertale and mashup in the description so that my song will show up if you search "undertale mashup".

Deff Leppard - Rock Of Ages (Enki Ver.)

Wow Le Ruse Bird I can't believe you're still making meme music for [s4s]
https://soundcloud.com/skiball

[s4s] Cool Crew (feat. SKIball)

Something for the fanfiction "Some Day You're Gonna Be Mine." In it, Frisk mentions a music box that used to play a soft melody. This is the first thing that came to mind.

It's Raining Somewhere Else (Music Box)

"But... but I'M Wally!"

(Original MIDI from khinsider.com, instrumentation and various other fiddling by me)

It's kind of styled after Mario Sunshine's Casino song.

Battle Against a Flippant Foe - Delfino Hotel Mix

My favorite Robot Master--er, Cortex Commando-- from Crash 3.
I got the original MIDI free with the Crash Bandicoot soundfont, as made by JexuBandicoot (a fellow transcriber on the interwebs). I made a few changes to it, so now it sounds more like the N. Sane Trilogy version (the superior version).

Dingodile (8-Bit) - Crash Bandicoot 3 (N. Sane Trilogy)

(A heavily modified version of the "veldt - wild west 2" MIDI on khinsider.)

The two songs seemed very similar in tone, and they're both from SNES RPGs, so I figured I'd just make a point of intersection, of sorts.

"Veldt - Wild West" in the Style of "The Deep Darkness" (FFVI - EarthBound Soundfont)

Another neat-o Final Fintastic tune.

Like before, this is simply an arrangement of a MIDI from khinsider.

'Cyan's Theme' in the Style of "Snowman" (FFVI - EarthBound Soundfont)

I didn't spend that much time on this. I dunno if it works. But it exists.

Silly Retro Stardust Speedway

Pitched the song up +580 cents on a whim, realized it was in a/the key that matches up with Bad, and as we all know, if there's one soundfont that should always have a few MJ songs under it's belt, it would be Wario Land 4.

Bad (Mario) - "Bad" in the style of "Portal (Menu)"

"Thanks a lot, buddy, it took us three whole days to make this MIDI."
(Shakes fist)
"THREE DAYS!"

Ghostly Garlic (Ghostly Garden + Wario Land 4 Soundfont)

I think I've finally done Monster Iestyn's MIDI justice :D
...i hope.

Too bad I didn't know about FL's tendency to screw with literally every programmable slider until some time after Iestyn himself literally pointed out that the pitch bending wasn't there. Son of a bitch. I made a fool of myself in front of the person whose MIDI I like better than the original Mystic Mansion.

"There's nothing to fear
So listen dear
Follow me, and I'll make sure we both get out a-li-ive"
"Please, just un-der-stand,
That's not my hand,
I would ne-ver be wont to lay a finger on you!"

"Sapphire Passage - Mystic Mansion" | Wario Land 4 + Sonic Heroes

You thought it was some sickass rock n roll, but it was ME, DIO

I dedicate these songs to my beloved daughter.  Although we are apart in distance we will always be close in heart.  Love, Daddy

Sounds Like A Metaphor

Deff Leppard - Love Bites (Acoustic Cover)

'Kefka - Final Fantasy VI' but instead of Kekfam it's Danny Kaye and this is his Incidental Theme

I finally figured out how to turn Major songs into Minors-- u'well, sort of-- courtesy of the internet! Hoo'ay!

"A Jester Appears"

"I bet he took it!"
"Who?"
"That THIEF!"

As always, you can DOWNLOAD the MIDI here:

Unlike last time I posted this, where it was a straight recreation, this version is an actual sf2 arrangement.

MIDI by MarioSpore
Arrangement by Me

Fun fact: I originally made it 74bpm because I wanted the "Indoor version" to be a Cleanin' Out My Closet MIDI I got online, initially. However, if that were the case, we wouldn't have the Indoor version I published. ...Maybe COMC will still make an appearance, perhaps as the replacement track for Mystic Lake's CD?

(He told me this version makes for even better sleeping music than the original when I showed it to him, and to that I say "pleasant dreams my friend")

Uncovered Lake CD

Wario Land 4 II: Uncovered Lake (Outside)

For this song, I wanted to get that sort of swing that Mystic Lake's indoor section has, while at the same time not having to change the actual song itself too much. I think it turned out pretty well, and I think MS did, as well. Edit: in response to JAWF's critique, I altered the swing for the arpeggio, and now it's been rid of that slight awkwardness. Edit 2: updated the mp3 to be the SynthFont version, as not only is it more up-to-date, but the EP also sounds WAY cooler.

This is the second time I've remixed this track. This time around, though, I've gotten a better feel for the original and think I can now do it proper justice. I'm closer to the source material this time around, though I do have some fun improvising in the solo section.

Composed by Toby Fox.
Arranged and produced by me.

Rude Buster (Epic RPG Remix)

Since the Rivals of Aether Workshop opened up last week, I've been hard at work on my first character. Y'all should expect more updates soon, so subscribe to my Youtube channel (link in bio) and stay tuned for more info on Wick later this week!

Special thanks to my friend FMS for drawing this AMAZING portrait for Wick. Check out his blog here: https://fmsdraws.tumblr.com/

Boombastic Blitzkrieg (Wick's Warship) - Rivals of Aether

Greenhorn Forest was stuck in my head, and it was bothering me that the only existing version of it (as well as every other song from Wario World, sadly) was only available in rather low quality due to them just being game rips. As any sane person would do, I determined the best course of action would be to Remake The Whole Song From Scratch™
This is by no means a perfect recreation! I don't know every sound source and there's quite a few improvisations in there. Tried to preserve the original spirit and sound of the song best I could, though. Just wanted to hear in in higher quality, lol.
Up on YouTube as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjOl0R-4oZY

Get a Wario Land 4 soundfont *with named presets* here: https://www.polyphone-soundfonts.com/en/files/27-instrument-sets/425-wario-land-4

tahutoa's actual second account.
Pride, Envy, and Anger are my vices.

Soundfonts that I use the most (in order of prominence):
Wario Land 4 (for pretty much anything, because I love WL4's sound)
OmegaGMGS2 (My go-to soundfont strictly because of how many High Quality out-of-the-way instruments there are)
SGM V2.01 (For when the OmegaGM variations of instruments are lacking)
Touhou (Flute, Saxophones, as well as some Basses and Harpsichord, otherwise same as SGM, where it's to stand in for OmegaGMGS2)
Earthbound (for Overdriven Guitar and other Pokey-related instruments)
Mother 3 (for 8-Bit and Synth stuff, usually)
Get a list of Preset names for (the original ver. of) the Wario Land 4 soundfont here*: https://warioforums.com/attachments/wario-land-4-soundfont-instrument-names-zip.6962/

*Appreciate it; altogether it took me something like 8/9 hours. The first 5/6 to listen, write down what I'm hearing, switch instruments, repeat over 200 times. Then, many months later, go through it all over again, this time to write down the Preset/Sound Bank relationships for each one, because I didn't the first time, and my laziness came back to haunt me once I started fiddling with Polyphone, intending to rename the WL4 presets and make my life easier.
