Is anyone else having trouble downloading the music? I keep getting .zip.001 and two of them are corrupted

[@RunningShine]

Downloading all 3 and extracting causes corrupted files? I'll fix this today.

[@big_doinks_incorperated4303]

@@RunningShine it goes like "running shine vol 1.zip.001" then .zip.002 etc, one of them worked but the rest are busted

[@RunningShine]

@@big_doinks_incorperated4303 I think I know what's happening. Are you trying to extract the second and third parts on their own? With zips in parts, you have to download all 3, and then just extract part 1, and it will go through all three of them in whatever folder you've saved all three. If this doesn't work let me know and I'll keep working on it.

@@RunningShine yeah that works, turns out I'm just retarded. cheers!

[@thejfj]

come back soon, shine. We miss ya.

[@RunningShine]

I'm coming back soon! I'm in the editing stage for the new video, and whenever I get free time from school work I always open the project to work on it. Both Tropics and I are incredibly excited for it though, it's coming together to be something pretty great. It's going to be a long video though, which is why it's been taking as long as it has. Also the video is on YIIK if you're curious. Mischief Makers is a great game that's pretty straight forward to talk about so that video will only be a fraction as long as YIIK when we get to it.

[@bunbabbit4233]

Huh. My 2 favourite channels have interacted. Small world.

[@SpicyChickenGodAJ]

Your music is pretty Dreamcast

[@T_Bot1]

I really don't know if you'll ever read this but thank you so much for the E102 jazz redux. Turning the synth lead into a saxophone solo was a stroke of genius, and makes it better than the original in my opinion.

[@cargnome]

Hey Running Shine, I'm only a recent fan, but I love what I've seen on the channel, and especially the music. I know you gave permission to that one guy to post this album on his youtube channel, but some of these tracks are really top tier. You should put official versions of them on spotify, pandora, itunes, and especially youtube (I personally use youtube to listen to music, so I'm a bit biased for that platform). Some of my favorite tracks are I Hear You're Doing Well, Whoaaaa, and Running Shine Theme, but there's no way for me to listen while supporting you as a musician on any of the platforms I use (namely youtube). It'd be nice to know that the music I'm listening to is at least somewhat supporting you, and not some random other guy. Either way, great music, and great videos. Keep up the good work!

[@Kirobsi]

Super late to this, but I agree. I do feel a bit weird hosting this stuff instead of them, but I figured it was best to have it up *at all* than to not have it available. If I had to guess, they may be against doing so for the same reason they won't set up a patreon, or allow donations. Maybe it's a desire to keep everything fairly 'unofficial.' Even then, it's strange that Post Elvis has uploaded a single track from the album on his own channel, rather than all three. Melo also has his Kirby and Starfox ones up on his personal channel, but no others? I hope I'm not inspiring apathy regarding that because "it's already out there." And I guess on that note, I hope people don't view me uploading them as self-interested. I really don't gain anything from it, and the channel was strictly a dumping ground for random shit at the time, so even if I did gain something from it, it wouldn't have amounted to anything. I guess that changed a month ago, but given what led to that I really couldn't have foreseen it.

[@madelinewoof7544]

I've always been interested in hearing more of your stuff since your early videos, it's really cool to finally be able to listen to it, you're doing great work

[@Sentay0]

I wasn't expecting to see anything from you for another year or so, good hustle my dude

[@John-jl4dl]

I've seen this video several times, and I only now realize that the pacing and dialogue is an homage to Dilbert 2.

[@woop6727]

holy shit.

[@poppysilver]

i love the music in your videos, i think my favorite is pastel stars

[@TriforceKid9746]

I'm looking for the song that you used on your YIIK review when you were talking about the shop UI! It started at around 54:50 and I know it sounds like a remix of the Shenmue tomato mart theme. The extension added on to the song was so good

[@RunningShine]

Thanks a lot! That track is going to be on Volume 2 as "Tomato Store Remix", which we're currently getting ready to release at this very moment! Post Elvis is still getting some of his songs uploaded, and I'll also be uploading my tracks to my own channel as well so that when we release it, people can download/listen to it on the website, but also listen on KZbin if they prefer that way (we do want to set up a Spotify as well, but that's still in the works). We'll be making a video when it's released.

[@GlitterBot-ky9vw]

I freaking love this music

[@big_doinks_incorperated4303]

Excellent, Sined, Battle Against a Stupid Kid, and I Hear You're Doing Well are standouts for me and of course Separation of Church and Skate

Whattt this dude is badass he stuck to his word with da latest video

[@bigbernard7325]

Sweet, I really want to see that Yiik video. Also, I was wondering if you are going to upload that livestream you did a while ago, that was entertaining.

[@RunningShine]

At some point I might make a compilation of our streams that just have the good parts in them, since I'd like being able to edit out the technical problems, moments where nothing of interest is really being said. So probably won't see the whole stream again, but you'll get all the parts of it that were relevant, most likely we'll make a separate channel for those so people don't need to see them in their subscriptions if they're only interested in the reviews! Glad you're looking forward to it!

[@Crismoonster]

Oh boy! do I want to hear you talk about Yiik, and giving some love (or hate, but I kinda find that hard to believe) to Mischief makers is cool also.

[@Jack-cp2ni]

Nice

[@lightsandlights6983]

Hey Shine! I use my own music in my videos too, but if I play my videos back on 1.5x or 2x speed, my music sounds terrible. I noticed yours still holds up, do you have any ideas why that might be??

[@RKzero10]

Hey! I was wondering with the whole COPPA shit and all the youtube shitstorm happening as of recent, what are you going to plan on doing with your content for the future? I wish I could follow you on twitter in case something really bad happened to the channel due to recent events with youtube and the law for any updates and such.

[@classclown6ya]

No twitter? Just curious.

[@TheGameStatistic]

What program do you use for your mixes?

[@RunningShine]

Sorry for the late response, I use Cubase and more recently Ableton, and Post Elvis uses Ableton as well. It doesn’t really matter what DAW you use though, at the end of the day what will limit you is your own experience and knowledge in compositing and mixing, not the software being used. I’d recommend looking at a good amount of DAW’s (or trackers if you’re more into that style of doing things) and using the one that you think you’d enjoy working in the most.

[@TheGameStatistic]

@@RunningShine That and the plugins. the most recent one i got was Broadway bigband which tore a fucking galaxy into my wallet. but it performs.

[@RunningShine]

@@TheGameStatistic Here are most of the plugins/samples/kontakt libraries I use, I can't speak for Post Elvis and what he uses though. Superior Drummer for organic drums Gold Baby Samples for 909/808/707/626/606 sounds Art Vista Virtual Grand Piano for jazzier mid range sounds The Giant for a more full piano with all the artifacts For Synths: TAL-Bassline 101 for an SH-101 copy TAL U-NO-LX for a Juno 6 copy Recently I’ve also been playing around with the Korg Legacy stuff, mainly the M1 for the mid-late 90’s samples used on a lot of games, and I’ve been learning FM synthesis also. I used Scarbee’s electric bases for a long time but now record my own since its easier than programming all the articulations. I still use Pear for a nice double bass sound though. Electric guitars are also always recorded. Any time I use any kind of horn it’s always from Sample Modeling. Their Kontakt sax, trumpet, trombone, and French horn libraries are fantastic.

[@TheGameStatistic]

@@RunningShine Im def gonna see how pricey those are. I'm rocking East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold & Symphonic Choirs. Nexus 2. Massive. Complete Broadway Big band. Shreddage for Kontact. Music Lab Real Strat Cause i have no guitar talent. EZ Keys for my "Better" Piano. and some free shit from DVS and DSK. I really dig Arcade Sunrise. I wish i had the time to just crank out beats. I've only ever completed one album back in my soundfont for everything days :/

[@PommeDeux]

Anyone know if the song he uses at the end of the YIIK review is on the album?

[@WasaboDuckBoy]

it's the "Running Shine Theme"

[@yoshiswagdust]

Do only mp3s of this exist?

[@Kirobsi]

hi yes so would you mind if I uploaded some/all of these tracks separately to my channel? I just want to be sure before I go and do stuff you might not be okay with :^)

[@RunningShine]

Sure, Post Elvis and I don't mind! I appreciate you asking beforehand.
