DKC Atlas Forum

Sorry about that. I deleted the SoundCloud account earlier this year for personal reasons. Here's a little RAR of everything I ever made for the project: https://mega.nz/#!vuIDwYJZ!xZTLaMyXIpwwG7j8hyTWj6q4s-_ObL6OQ5-gT3F4Y6s Please excuse the low quality. Due to a lack of foresight on my part, all o...

Not sure if I mentioned before but I also found many other renders from the DKC Advance series, they show many other angles from the renders that have helped a lot, including a full close up of Kremkroc Industries which I really want to work on so that has also made me go back and redo some other i...

After yet another multi-month long hiatus, I believe it's time that I made a statement concerning the future of this project, instead of leaving those of whom still following it in the dark; DKC3 Orch is over. The project is cancelled. Yes, I'm going to be completely and utterly blunt. There are a m...

Absolutely stunning. That's precisely how I imagine Kiddy would look in one of Retro's DKC games; it's so perfect, I could very well mistake it for being the real deal!

Ooh, I can't wait to see the whole crew in action, roaming these gorgeous environments... Keep up the phenomenal work.

Thanks for the kind words but I think you got Cyclone's 3d thread confused with mine.

Disregard my incompetence.

Oh my goodness. Kiddy is looking wonderful. Splendid work, Mr. Cyclone, sir.

EDIT: I'm an idiot.

Absolutely! It may seem all too quiet at times - believe me, I know what you're feeling in that respect - but there are dozens of folks eagerly awaiting news and updates on the project, in spite of any underwhelming reactions. Keep up the phenomenal job, Mr. Cyclone, sir.

Bah! In my dreams. Having a symphony at my hands would be a dream come true. My main DAW is SynthFont, an old, inefficient piece of software that I undoubtedly do not recommend to anyone, particularly those of whom that are new to the process of digital composing. Frankly, the only blasted reason I'...

I assume Big Boss Blues is highly anticipated by those following the project, as it has proven to be quite the fan favorite. Well, anticipate no longer; I present "Kremling Behind the Kurtain"! https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/kremling-behind-the-kurtain-dkc3-orchestrated?in=pigmask-...

And now for the abstract and dramatic; I present "The Otherworldly".



Indeed, Pokey Pipes is still on hiatus. Big Boss Blues is in the works as we speak, though, so progress is still being made.

No worries, my good sir. They will be worked on in due time. Just an update, artist's block has been hitting me even harder than before, so the progress rate of the album is at a complete crawl. I'm trying my damndest to keep my motivation and pacing up, but it's a real struggle. For your informatio...

Here's "Intruding the Sawmills", AKA Mill Fever. It's a bit jazzy! :kiddycool: https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/intruding-the-sawmills-dkc3-orchestrated If I don't see any suggestions I may move on to Pokey Pipes, but like I said, I'll have to find a good way to pull it off.

Um... Yeah, this project is still going. No, I'm not meeting the 20th anniversary deadline, obviously. Let's aim for spring 2017...Maybe? I dunno, but I really am going to try and focus MUCH more on DKC3 Orch now. I need to stop dilly-dallying and FOCUS. It's not even motivation at this point, I'm j...

Looks like we've got another trailer! :dixiehappy: Surprised this was never uploaded to Youtube. http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi3970040089/ The only difference I could find was that the instrumentation in Water World and Boss Boogie is very different from the final game. If anyone else notic...

That's definitely fake. I've been all over the internet and never heard anything like that. No source, no proof.

Always great to see love for DKC3, especially now that it's the 20th anniversary. I'm definitely keeping an eye on this project.

If you ever need help regarding the music, I could possibly help.

It's time for the fan favorite, Rockface Rumble!







I'll start work on Pokey Pipes soon. Have any suggestions or feedback?

You should do Rockface Rumble. That would be epic. By the way, I've heard your Industrial March (Nuts and Bolts; my favorite of the SNES version). It sounds very John Williams-like (that's an awesome thing). Oh, and do you have any plans to do the GBA version after the SNES soundtrack? The GBA soun...

Nuts n' Bolts is done! I've called it the Industrial March.



Any suggestions for which song to do next? If I don't see any I'll most likely do a medley of the Swanky themes.

Thanks! Yes, Pokey Pipes is a wonderful one. It has this hazy, almost relaxing sound that's really intriguing.

I'm currently working on Nuts n' Bolts. It's coming along very well.

Oops! Yeah, lemme fix that.

Apologies for the slight delay! I've been having internet related problems lately and had no access to it for several days. As promised, here's "A Greater Foe" AKA Boss Boogie. A Greater Foe (Boss Boogie) https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/%20...%20chestrated As usual, I'll be updating...

o mah gurd im not dead huehue Yup, I'm back after my three month long absence! And with a new arrangement, The Heroes' Return, AKA Dixie Beat. I'm really proud of this one. The Heroes' Return (Dixie Beat) https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/the-heroes-return-dkc3-orchestrated I'm once again deter...

Regarding the Ambience thing: I downloaded that so long ago, that I honestly don't remember... The program is pretty old though (2003 I think), so maybe your computer is too new? I dunno... Maybe you didn't download the right version? Here, try this link . Also, if you're doing Klomp's Romp, this vi...

So, are you going to work on both Diddy's Kong Quest 3D and DKC2 Arrangement at the same time...?

Another update, Cascade Capers (or as I have dubbed my arrangement, "Down into the Rapids). https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/down-into-the-rapids-dkc3-orchestrated Apologies for the delay and for no Dixie Beat... I'll get on that one soon! For now, please enjoy this piece and leave some f...

So, what's the current status of the project? You've been really quiet lately.

If you mean making a fangame, I'm totally willing to let you use my album when it's complete.

Thanks for your kind words, Qyzbud (and the "motivational care-package" :lol: ). I suppose that I will continue pumping these out, but it's going to be at a much slower rate. I'm very determined to finish this album, though, so don't worry about cancellation. Dixie Beat and Cascade Capers ...

Well, I'm back with two surprise tracks! Jangle Bells, 'cuz it's Christmas (or Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Yule, whatever you celebrate :lol: ), and the Fanfare. Oh, the Kremlings Outside are Frightful (Jangle Bells) https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/oh-the-kremlings-outside-are-frightful-dkc3-orchestra...

Reviving this thread to post two new pieces. Apologies for the huge delay, I'll get back to working on this project more regularly! :lol: War for the Kremisphere (Wrinkly's Save Cave, Get Fit A-go-go, & Wrinkly 64 medley) https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/war-for-the-kremisphere-dkc3-orches...

You see, Ambience is a VST. Assuming your software supports VST's, you can just apply it to your midi file in your music rendering software and then render it with Ambience. If you're looking for some rendering software, I'd recommend Synthfont. It's what I've been using to render all of my arrangem...

Regarding the "intensity", yes, I sort of mean accent. To make it very clear, I mean the sound volume of each snare hit (apologies for the confusion, I'm still learning my musical terms :oops:). I hope that's clear enough. Also, thank you! i lik feelng kewl m8 :kiddycool: Seriously though,...

Now, feedback: In K. Rool Returns, I noticed that the woodwind section from 0:00 to 0:19 is occasionally playing incorrect notes, or doesn't match the melody. Perhaps you should try studying the original piece more thoroughly, or, if you used the sheet music, maybe it's incorrect? :scratch: Also, so...

Yeah, brah.

Did you know that I am an idiot?

I said pretty please.

Does Wrinkly's donut like Cranky's donut?

Almost perfect! The only "negative" thing I can say is about Dixie's eyes... They're motionless and expressionless, and it's a bit odd. Is there no way to make her eyes move, or was it not done due to time constraints? EDIT: Was watching on my phone, it's hard to see so I thought her eyes ...

Double post. Yeah, blah blah blah :rant: Anyway, I've finally gotten to upload all of my work from across the past week! Here's each one, individually: The New World (Final) https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/the-new-world-dkc3-orchestrated-1 Crazy Calypso https://soundcloud.com/pigmask-colonel/...

← He does.

Do you want the donut questions to return?

And there's the less-than-stellar soundtrack, especially when compared to the first two. I feel that music is mostly up to taste. There's no need to say it like it's a fact. Here, let me paste my argument for the zillionth time: ;) "To enjoy DKC3's soundtrack, I think you have to understand th...

It's neat to see that I've "inspired" someone... Feels!

Really, though, I'll be checking back often to see what pieces you have cooked up.

Also, if you'd like an above-average orchestral soundfont collection, check this out!

I'll upload the final version of Stilt Village under the name Prancing the Boardwalk, soon. Dang internet... :kiddysad: Currently polishing Treetop Tumble and just finished Rocket Run. I really like how this one came out! I'm probably going to be able to upload these pieces in around a week from now...

Thanks for the feedback (and the :banana: )! I'm really trying to make it sound as realistic as possible even with my limitations. Glad it sounds good. And I really like your title; could I use it? Also, regarding your new SoundCloud account, could you leave a link? I'd like to hear your music too! ...

Thanks, Cody! The reason I'm not completing the orchestration and then releasing it is because I'm a novice. In other words, I don't want to release a bunch of awful music and be all like "hey look awesome orchestral music huehue" when it's actually bad. Oh, and Double the Trouble was incr...
