How do you make town tunes to match real songs?

[marinamarina]

Idk how at all but I want to!

You just have to play it by ear and hope the part you want to have for the tune is short enough. I tried doing 3 different songs and around 7 different parts before I finally got a town tune that sounded right. If you don't i mind my asking, what tune are you trying to replicate?

Genesis by Grimes!

i found this too and am trying to use it!

I recently started watching that show and it's giving me creepy dreams haha.

I have a Lord of the Rings town tune, I was lucky enough to find a screenshot of the tune to go by that someone else had already made, that I fell in love with. ^_^ However, sometimes the best way is simply by ear like hotcocoa said, trial and error and then...TRIUMPH!

My town tune is from one of Undertale's tracks, but I just googled it and luckily someone out there had the exact notes for it. I would just google it if it's out there first, if not try to listen to it by ear and try and try again until you get it right.

For some songs you can find sheet music and use that to decide which notes to use.

Yep, like Barnabus_i_am suggested, sheet music is your friend. I used it to create the town tunes for all three of my current towns.

Here is a very helpful guide on how to read sheet music, if you don't know how.

I've had various songs by the Human legue, Gary Newman, OMD and David Bowie as my town ture, I just work them out by ear, sometimes you have to change the key so the flats/sharps missing don't effect your tune! The best one I've had is 'We'll always be together' by the Human legue, so much fun!

I do it by hear. One town has K.K. waltz as the tune and the cycling town has mystic mansion intro from sonic heroes playing.

I currently have the first two lines of 'You Are My Sunshine' as my town tune. I recently lost two family members who would sing it to me, and it makes me feel better to hear it. It's also one of my favorite lullabies to sing to my son. That one was easy, because it's pretty basic notes. If you're having a lot of trouble still, though, let me know and I'll see if my husband can help out- he doesn't read sheet music but he plays guitar by ear and at least knows notes and stuff.

Get someone to do it for you. That's what I'd do, it's too hard.

 

[Kohaku-san]

Use your ears.

Yeah, I know nothing about music but idk who to ask? I could pay them in tbt tho.

 

[Corrie]

You can try googling them. Thats how I made mine Jigglypuff's song!

 

[Whisper]

My town tune for Pixels is the first few lines of Uchu Dance. I listened to that part of the song over and over again until I got the notes right. It only took me a little less than a half an hour to get it right.

If I wanted someone to make a town tune for tbt does anyone know where I'd request that?
