After seeing Scruffy take a look at the detail behind the composition of this song, I couldn't resist getting into it myself. Now Or Never is a relatively simple song that has a lot of power using as few instruments as possible, designed to get you really pumped up at the final minute of a Turf War. Check his video out, it's worth it!

Same deal as last time, no soundfonts used, just pure, raw, unfiltered stock microsoft midi synthesizer, turns out sounding better in the end, so I'm happy with that. That part just before the drumming becomes faster oddly has a 6/4 measure. Not really odd I guess, just thought it's worth pointing out, tho the rest of the song is in 4/4.
Anyway, thanks for watching/listening! I know I don't upload as frequently these days, but I think it's better like this. It makes sure I don't burn out my creative juices too quickly (and my own mental health) for when I do feel like doing a video thing~

![I ported the Rock Band track pack discs into RB2 for PS2! [also Synchronicity II FC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xfFCk3ADmkU/mqdefault.jpg "I ported the Rock Band track pack discs into RB2 for PS2! [also Synchronicity II FC]
I felt that this was needed, because all of the track pack discs used the RB1 engine, and the last track pack disc released that used the RB2 engine was not ever released for the PS2. 40 songs in total from both Vol1 and Vol2 discs rounding out at about 5 gigabytes (with the tutorial songs and irrelevant FMVs removed).
In theory, I could fit in one more track pack into this, but I wanted to have some consistency with the theming - where the other track packs were focused on compiling one specific genre of music, Vol1 and Vol2 were just compilations of HMXs favourite DLC picks at the time of release, so this checks out pretty well in that regard.
Anyway, if you wanna have a go:

All explanations and tools provided! You just need to have the relevant game discs at hand. (or on your drive as ISO images).
Again, all the songs will be available for play from the start. You do not have to play through the career mode or enable the unlock all songs cheat.
Thanks for watching, and have fun!

april fools! i havent really gotten around to finishing that song yet. my actual plan for it was to release it with Obisams (https://www.youtube.com/user/Grobisam) hand-drawn TF2 animation to go along with my sentence-mixing, but ever since hes been going through all sorts of life troubles, the project just kinda got left there sitting at a standstill, and I sort of lost any motivation I had to continue it. I may pick it up again at some point, but Im currently in my final year now, so college work is top priority for me at the moment.
Anyway, I hope this silly little april fools thing entertained you guys in some strange way. I will still continue to do MLF2 vids... once college life stops constantly getting in my way. :u
