Brawl Custom Music Hub: Archiving all the music in one place!

[moosehunter]

Yes! We need to get EVERYBODY to upload their music to my site. After all, it was supposed to replace this music hub.

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

I have a sort of request. Does anyone have any good quality SNES music (320 kbps MP3s), that don't have that god-awful "slow volume increase at start, followed by gradual decrease in volume" thing that most SPC-MP3 conversions have?

Or a good quality soundtrack of Revenge of Shinobi, that doesn't have the loud clicks at the beginning of Terrible Beat?

For example the NEC PC-8801 Sound Source Version?

 

[Zealous98]

I uploaded a BTSRM last night. >_> It was another remix of World Revolution.

I also plan to (re)do the entire Megaman 7 soundtrack soon--I found a high-quality source last night that I can use. Besides, two of the MM7 songs I uploaded had some problems with them.

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

Incase you can't tell , these would go under "Other Music", also, note that ALL of these are looped (properly, NOT just end-start)

Hey guys! Does anyone know what the song in this match is called?

Thanks.

 

[darksamus77]

More people from the Hub should upload there :/
I'm looking at darksamus77.

I'm going to start uploading my songs there. It's much easier, actually...

 

[ぱみゅ]

I've been having trouble uploading stuff due to my computer being unable to, so I have many BRSTMs stored and ready to be shared.

If my computer happens to handle the upload system, I'll switch there.

I don't see why any computer wouldn't be able to handle it unless it doesn't have flash player installed.

Or a ****ty Internet connection... Meh, I can try that anytime later.

Anyways, about the site, it MUST be videogame music?

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

Well, an 8-bit version of Chocolate Rain was not only submitted but even accepted, so you'd assume that any song could be available.

 

[Lohead]

Heh... Just now found the site. Im uploading my Sonic CD collection of BRSTMs now.

You might want to redo some of the loops on the Sonic CD tracks.

Here's the waveform of Wacky Workbench Bad Future at the loop point
http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/temporarycrap/loop.gif

As you can see, there's a giant jump in the waveform. You can also see that the boxed parts on either side of the loop point are pretty much identical. There are a number of loop points that you could choose. I've marked one of them as an example. Your loop point was about 130 samples off.

Edit: Here's a basic page I just threw together that shows you all your songs that have been rejected. http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/reject.php

 

[Segtendo]

Wait, WTF? All but one track are mine. >.>

No, you can upload any song.

 

[Linkshot]

@Segtendo: It only shows the tracks uploaded by the person logged in.

 

[moosehunter]

No, you can upload any song.

Unless it's stuff like music from Avenged Sevenfold or something.

Ah, okay.

Most of the Sonic Rush Adventure music is up there >.>
Was that when I wasn't a mod?

 

[moosehunter]

IDK, maybe. You had uploaded the soundtrack twice.

 

[Segtendo]

I checked the Sonic Rush Adventure soundtrack. Guess you're right about the "twice" thing.
As for the 2 others, IDK.

Just to clarify.

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

So, about this "upload any song":

I asked moosehunter in a PM:
"are non-game songs allowed? Also, if someone was to upload a looping BRSTM of a non-game song, should the Artist be treated as the "Game name"? For example, if I was to upload a BRSTM of Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up, would I put "Rick Astley" as the game?"

And his response was something along the lines of "No" (to the very first question).

 

[Linkshot]

I have Weebls songs in there I think.

 

[lpgautogas]

Nice post...Thank you very much!!......

 

[Nicole]

So I have a public service question/announcement:

I've tried dilligently and numerous times to download certain brstm files. Every time I try, the mediafire page will load, and everything will look like it's going to work. As soon as I click on the file to download it, however, there is a "problem loading page" and I simply can't download these files. The ones I've tried (and failed with):

Bizzaro Sephiroth
OC Remix Booster's Tower
Antenna Cradle
Battletoads & Double Dragon Lv 1
Krook's March
Tetris Type A

I'm sure there are more, but these are the ones I wanted that I was very distraught to learn I could not (apparently) get. What should I/you guys do?

 

[moosehunter]

@Nicole
It's not just you. Those files aren't working.

Also, http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/2754

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

Can I make a request for people uploading BRSTMs to brawlcustommusic.com? Can you make sure there isn't already a version up there? darksamus77 uploaded DK Island Swing from Donkey Kong Country today, which was already up on the site.

My bad, I was posting a bunch of BRSTM's. That won't happen again...

 

[Volt_Storm_7]

Some of the songs really need a new download link, but can you redo the Pokemon mystery dungeon 2:
Hidden Highland, becasue I wants it, but gay mediafire is being gay

[moosehunter]

I'd also like to make a request to those making BRSTMs. When making a BRSTM, could you please try to find the highest quality source file. It's frustrating seeing people work hard to make BRSTMs from a low quality source, because all that they have to show for their work is a low quality BRSTM that alot of the time sounds horrible.

For example, darksamus77 just uploaded a low quality BRSTM of An Adventure in Atlantica from Kingdom Hearts. There is a lossless PSF2 rip freely available here. And it's not like it's a 500MB zip of FLACs. It's only about 20mb. I made a BRSTM from the PSF2 file. You can see the two files here:
Low quality: http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/3773
High quality: http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/3791

Edit: Just wanted to say that a big cause of this is people getting their source files from YouTube videos.

Edit 2: I was going through the recently uploaded videos, and found this: http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/3784
The creator should have used the lossless 2SF set for their source file.
Apparently he got it from here.


Sorry if I'm just using examples from you darksamus, but you're the only one who has songs that are pending approval.

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

Couldn't you have just updated 3773, instead of uploading a completely new one? Although since neither are approved, I'll just approve the better version. Also, just to make sure, if I use any rips (USF, GSF, GBS, etc), and output the file as a WAV at precisely the same sample rate as the original, is that high-enough quality?

I just wanted people to see the difference, so don't delete the old one yet.

Well, if the USF's at, say 22kHz, and there's an OST at 44.1kHz, I would say go for the higher quality one, but PSF and variants should usually be ideal.

Yes, I use Youtube sources for audio files. Sorry if that constitutes as low-quality for BRSTM's. I focus on loops more than quality songs...

 

[TheUltimateKoopa]

If the OST is 44.1 kHz but the rip is only 22.05 kHz, then I'd either use the OST or rip, depending on which was higher quality. The OST isn't necessarily higher quality, in terms of sound. However, if there's a so-called "OST" that is actually a rip, which has 44.1 kHz, where the originals are 22.05 kHz, I'll try to avoid that, because if you out put a 22.05 kHz audio file to a WAV with a different sample rate, it really butchers the quality. Also, I tend to use rips, especially, since I can set the songs to play as long as I need, especially when the OST fades out before any two loop points can be found, especially in songs like Bayou Boogie:
http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/2193
Note how the start point is at 4,429,824, and end point is 7,870,818? The OST would most likely fadeout long before 7,870,818 (at 48,000 Hz).

Also, YouTube sucks for quality -- I'd only use YouTube if there was literally no other way whatsoever.

I was just trying to get at that you should just go for the better quality one, though ADPCM is still lossy, it's always best to have the file you're encoding be as close to the original as possible.

Well, I suppose you're correct. however, Youtube is more accessible than OST's...and why download a torrent of an OST for one song? Sorry, that seems pointless to me. Even if it is higher quality, I don't think the time elapsed is worth it...

Where'd you get that from? I never knew OST's could be so little...

You can use Downthemall to quickly get all the mp3s from a page, or select one.
A loto f site haves have single songs too, and for quick OSTS without torrents Down Them All works great.
Its a firefox app.

Ok. I know KHInsider has a crapload of OST's as single songs...
