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).

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.

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.

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!

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.

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?

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.

I've run out of larger collections to dedicate whole entries to, so here's a couple smaller ones put together. this one isn't quite complete, unfortunately. I'm missing the first two albums plus the 2014 Last Stardust EP, but that's because those are all difficult to find (and expensive) outside of the band's home of Japan. I'm fine with missing the first two albums since they predate the trance-metal hybrid style the band excels at, but I would like to track down Last Stardust eventually. incidentally, the album Mozaiq is also pretty hard to find. for a while it wasn't available through U.S. or European digital outlets, and all the CD copies ranged from $30-$100. furthermore, if you were lucky enough to find a CD copy for cheap, there was a pretty good chance you would end up with one of Amazon's awful "manufactured on demand" CD-Rs instead of the real thing. and as if this wasn't annoying enough, it would appear that virtually all the copies of the album available outside of Japan, digital or otherwise, have the track listing totally screwed up where the songs are all shuffled around and don't match what's shown on the packaging or listed online - some copies, specifically the Amazon CD-Rs, even mistakenly include a song by a completely different band in place of the track "Neo-Gothic-Romance". I somehow managed to luck out seriously a couple years back and find a promotional European pressing on Amazon for $7. it does have the track order messed up, but at least it's not a CD-R and none of the songs are missing. top to bottom: - Idolator (European pressing, excludes two tracks included on the Japanese version, includes the music video for "Truth") - Mozaiq (European promotional copy, includes the bonus track "Cosmic Highway") - Epsilon (European pressing, includes the bonus track "Royal Sky", an updated re-recording of "Final Sky" from Idolator) this one is a complete collection, albeit with a far less interesting background than the Blood Stain Child one. Days of Nothing is a bit harder to find than the other two, but I did manage to luck out and get one for about $8. all of these are American pressings to my knowledge. top to bottom: - Days of Nothing - Oionos - Second World as a side note, if everything goes as scheduled, I should have an entry up tomorrow about a very cool box set I ordered last week.

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.

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum, but it seems to be the right place. I'm not the creator of this, nor do I have any affiliation with this, but I thought this would be cool to share: It's pretty cool. But also insanely creepy in a weird way...

First off, hi there! Been a while. I'll post a life-update thing soon-ish. Anyways, my high-school orchestra conductor may be one of the nicest, most supportive people I have ever met or will ever meet. He's an older man, but he's always full of a joyful energy and can often be seen with a huge grin across his face. He always tells us that he loves us and that we're his favorites, and it's one of the most adorable, fulfilling things to hear him talk. So a few days ago (last Friday, to be exact) we come in for our daily orchestra class. We're all pretty worn out- it's been a long week. He picks up on this, and after we tune he selects me, one of my good friends, and maybe about six other kids and tells us to follow him as he briskly walks out of the classroom. We have to struggle to keep up as he exits the music hall and strolls into the school, finally stopping at the vending machines. Once we all get there, he pulls out a big wad of cash and starts inserting money into one of the vending machines and ordering drinks. He gives us all money and tells us to do the same, and we finally pick up on what he's doing- he's buying drinks for the entire orchestra. And there's maybe about 30-40 kids in the orchestra, too. So we do what he says and buy a bunch of beverages from the vending machines, and then once we've bought a sufficient amount we carry them all back to the orchestra room and distribute them. All the while he's just smiling and watching us enjoy our treat. To think that spending an hour a day with a bunch of high-schoolers makes someone so happy that they would spend their own money to cheer us up. I can't think of any words to describe him. He's just an amazing guy. Just think the polar opposite of J.K. Simmons from Whiplash.

ITT: We help each other find more artists in genres we like. I like ambient electronica and IDM, and C418's older stuff is just awesome. One track of his, however, stands out: https://soundcloud.com/c418/the-driver. He labels that genres as "trip hop" and "breakbeat", both of which work, but neither are right to me. Trip hop is more chill and slower, and breakbeat is more reminiscent of dance music, in a way. Anyway, I would like to know either more artists that use this style or the genre name. It's pretty sweet. Also, if you need help finding more artists or a genre or something like that, post it here and maybe someone can help.

To those who do music production, have you attempted to do a remix or original composition relating to Bionicle? I've tried once with a remake of the Chronicler's Company theme from MNOG, but that's it. Share compositions, remakes, remixes, and tips for transcribing (I might have cheated using a MIDI file). https://soundcloud.com/theironchicken/sets/mnog-transcription My final goal is to do a remake of the entire soundtrack.
