I ran a Town Tune Maker thread for New Leaf for years
HERE, and now that New Horizons is here, and town tunes still work exactly the same, I decided to start a new town/island tune maker thread here! So if anyone has a song they'd like me to help them turn into the town tune format, just ask! Whether you're playing New Leaf or New Horizons or any other Animal Crossing game, the tunes I make will work the same in all of them!
RULES:
1.
SEARCH this and
the previous Town Tune Maker thread to see if your town/island tune is already made
[PLEASE USE GOOGLE SITE SEARCH FOR "kiwikenobi" AND THE NAME OF YOUR SONG(S)
more instructions below]
2. Post a
LINK (preferably Youtube and NOT extended) so I can hear your song
3. Specify which
SECONDS of the song you want made into a town/island tune
4. Requesting is
FREE! Anyone can make as many requests as they like
(LIMIT 3 PER DAY)!
5. PEOPLE WHO MAKE POSTS THAT DO NOT FOLLOW THE RULES WILL BE POLITELY ASKED TO READ THE RULES AND POST AGAIN WHILE FOLLOWING THEM
LONGER EXPLANATION OF RULES:
Rule 1. While TBT's search function is not working, the best way to search for town/island tunes that I have done previously is to use a Google site search. Put this into a Google search:
site:
https://www.belltreeforums.com/ "kiwikenobi"
then type the name of the song that you're looking for. This will produce more accurate results than the in-site search currently, so please use this method. If you get too many results, try also adding the words "town tune" to your search.
Please use the "SEARCH" feature--in both this and the New Leaf edition of this thread, which is HERE--to see if I've already done a song that you want. I've done hundreds of requests, so it's possible a song you want is already made. When you're in the thread you want to search, click on the "search" button and select "this thread." Like this:

Rule 2. If you have a request,
please post a link to a sound file or a video with the song in it so that I can hear it.
This will also ensure that you will absolutely 100% for sure get the correct song that you want, when I search for songs myself, I sometimes find the wrong one.
(Youtube is preferred, and non-extended videos are preferred as well; it makes it easier to find and replay the few seconds that you want made into island tunes if the video isn't really long.)
Rule 3. You can specify which seconds of the song you would like done, if you have a preference.
Please note that Island Tunes are generally able to contain about
2-5 seconds of a song in them. If you don't specify particular seconds of a song, I'll usually just choose whatever melodic bit of music plays first. I'm rarely familiar with the songs people request, so please do not say "do the chorus" or anything similar, because I won't always know what the chorus is for every song. ^o^;>
Rule 4. I make island tunes for fun, and because I like to help people who might have a hard time making them on their own. I don't require any form of payment. I don't have any particular use for TBT bells or anything like that. So you can just say "thank you."
HOW TOWN/ISLAND TUNES AND MY NOTATION FOR THEM WORK:
In both town and island tunes, there are only eight different tones that can be played, A, B, C, D, E, F and G. There are no sharps or flats. There are a low and a high version of all of the notes except for F, which has only one, right in the middle. I'll specify whether the notes are the high or low version if I create a island tune for you.
- means a sustain (the straight line mouth frog note) and z means a rest (the sleeping frog note).
(Please be warned that some songs might be in a particular key or at a speed that makes it impossible for them to sound right in the town tune format, although I'll do my best with every request.)
Any requests? Anyone can make as many requests as they like (limit 3 per day).
