"Occupy Redmond v2 is a people-powered movement that began on July 1st 2020 in the Avsim forums and has spread to over 100 cities in the United States and actions in over 1,500 cities globally (or at least it likely will soon). The manifesto is effectively the same as last time: So, I am taking this opportunity to implore you to join me in a new Occupy Redmond movement. Thankyou, Dighost, for your service.Īlthough mega-corporation Microsoft has tried to get the memory of this campaign scrubbed from the internet, traces of it remain on the Dark Web and in the Avsim archives: It was originated by a guy called Dighost, who - to the best of my knowledge - ended up in GTMO because of this. Many of you have forgotten that we at Avsim managed to get Microsoft Flight cancelled through a people-powered movement called "Occupy Redmond" that started back in early 2012. As those of you in the Alpha will know, the trees are the wrong size, to the point that I can not deal with MSFS for one day more. Called Microsoft Flight SIMULATOR, but is actually an X-box game, GOOD TRY MICROSOFT!!!Ĥ. OK, Asobo said this was false, but corporations lie.ģ.
There have been a small number of mixes, most notably “ Devastation’s Doorway” by Sole Signal, a title which captures the melancholy of the originals.
The unique sounds of the midi snare and synth line in the Mario 64 version help it stand on its own while the graceful trumpets from Galaxy 2 are the real backbone of the song. It’s interesting because both songs are quite good, differentiated mainly by instrument selection (the compositions are otherwise more or less identical). However, there is an odd point to the song where the distortion in the introduction sounds like the grumbling of the Koopa king. While “Koopa’s Road” was used in every Bowser stage in Mario 64, the track is only used in one or two Bowser fortress stages in Galaxy 2, and so it has to make up for the original in high drama. The instruments are graceful and sweeping, building ever upward to the final segment where the choir hits home. “Koopa’s Road” from Super Mario Galaxy 2 in contrast is a step to the side of Ravel’s “Bolero”, with heavy use of trumpets, brass, and choir to achieve dramatic tension through smoothly flowing waves. Super Mario Galaxy 2 – “Koopa’s Road” (Mahito Yokota) Another fine defining point is the exotic synth line in the final section of the loop, a very Kondo-esque plucking that is similar to both Super Mario World and also the Middle East. The song is simultaneously melancholic and determined, a multi-layered beat and rhythm that drives the player forward, but also a steady upward movement in intensity that never achieves tones of triumph, lying instead in the minor key. The snare drums, sticks, and trumpets make for a very precise rhythm, a forward march through conjured images of flames, bubbling lava, and baked stone. Whether it’s the song’s driving beat, its atmosphere of a grueling obstacle course from which the track’s name is derived. However, “Koopa’s Road” is another track that stands out for me. It feels odd using yet another Super Mario Galaxy 2 remix from Super Mario 64 (after all, that’s what yesterday’s was!).
