Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
PARTY HOST PETITION
I would like to petition to add additional tracks to the Party Host's nighttime musical repertoire. I think that adding more variety to the songs will significantly boost the fun and replayability of the game. This will also play to the party host's role which is the host a party, and what is a party without FIRE tracks? Am I right?
I will separate the suggestions into 4 categories:
IMPORTANT - The game is literally unplayable if this isn't added
Good - Good songs that are fun to listen to
Bad - Bad songs that are fun to listen to
Meme - Meme
I will also update the list as the community sees fit (and as the songs get added)
I submit the following tracks for consideration:
IMPORTANT
One Night in Karazhan Cinematic Trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-YKHFU8j_E) (Cmon it's literally Medivh hosting a party)
Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ)
George Michael - Careless Whisper (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izGwDsrQ1eQ)
Vengaboys - We like to Party! (The Vengabus) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Zbi0XmGtMw)
Good
Funkytown- Lipps Inc (original) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s36eQwgPNSE)
The Weather Girls - It's Raining Men (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5aZJBLAu1E)
RASPUTIN - Vladimir Putin - Love The Way You Move (Funk Overload) @slocband (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgGzAKP_HuM)
a-ha - Take On Me (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djV11Xbc914)
Daler Mehndi - Tunak Tunak Tun (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTIIMJ9tUc8)
MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS - THRIFT SHOP FEAT. WANZ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK8mJJJvaes)

Lone Digger - Caravan Palace (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbQgXeY_zi4)
VITAS - Седьмой элемент (The 7th Element) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwhLueAWItA)
Bad
Alison Gold - Chinese Food (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWLhrHVySgA)
Baby Shark Dance | Sing and Dance! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqZsoesa55w)
Little Einsteins Theme Song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eL1Bfv8Y9k)
Meme

Initial D - Deja Vu (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv13gl0a-FA)
Bag Raiders - Shooting Stars (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feA64wXhbjo)
taking the hobbits to isengard (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE-1RPDqJAY)
Gachi 65 - I'm Boy Next Door (https://youtu.be/a2Xym3_DcwE)
Shorts: ♂ GACHI ♂ DOCTOR ♂ (https://youtu.be/wv3eBkIyGEs)
♂ VANGAGAYS - WE LIKE TO GACHI! (THE GACHIBUS) ♂ (https://youtu.be/m1_HHVoPjho)
Additional Suggestions:
- Points perk to allow people with more points to choose certain tracks when they are the party host
- Weighted probabilities so certain tracks are more common (and others are more like easter eggs)
EDIT: There seems to be some consensus around what songs people want... I'll start putting them below
Edit 2: replaced one night in Karazhan link with instrumental
Edit 3: Added more suggestions to meme + lone digger to good
Edit 4: Added 7th element to GOOD. Can't believe I didn't think of it!

Literally unplayable if One Night in Karazhan isn't added

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
Can we expand the night party enough so that the song plays completely? Thank you.

I mean we can already do that, it's up to the host to make nights longer

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
I 100% agree with One Night in Karazhan

I mean it adapts to the chosen song.

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
Agree with One Night in Karazhan if you can get the instrumental.
Rickroll should be extremely rare, and not an unlockable. It should catch people off guard and be appreciated, not annoying.
Careless Whisper I like, but I think its a little bit too intimate for a large party, idk.
Holy shit would Rasputin be a fucking bop, just the original not the remix please. I would pick it for my PH theme for sure!
Funkytown sure.
Every other song just doesn't fit. I just think Party Host should be playing 70's/80's party funk only.

Agree that rick rolling should be rare and unselectable otherwise people would just pick it all the time and people would get tired of it
Also agree that 70s/80s funk (and disco) should be the theme
On careless whisper, maybe it plays when there are fewer than a certain number of people (<5 or something) left alive?

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
I might as well officialise it. We absolutely have always planned to have P Host launch with at least 4 songs.
We're watching... we can dodge a little bit of copyright but we have to be pretty careful in this department. --
Blizzard proprietary stuff is probably a lot easier to get away with...
Looking at you One Night in Karazhan...

I've seen plenty of youtubers fly by by slightly pitching the songs some octaves higher, making it higher pitched but almost uncompromised

For what it's worth I know other arcade games have used Rick Astley in their games without any issues.
Also worth noting that it may fall under fair use provisions depending on the length.
The factors considered in fair use under federal law are:
- The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
- The nature of the copyrighted work;
- The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
- The effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
The risk can likely be minimized by using smaller segments of the work (as well as using older works which are less likely to be hit by copyright). Not a copyright lawyer though.
Does Blizzard have any official position on fair use within the arcade? Someone could (anonymously) ask Blizzard's legal department about fair use in arcade maps and see if they get any responses.

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
Like we already use Ace Attorney and Godfather stuff. It's not out of the question, and its a lot easier now that the arcade is free/we're a non profit. We do normally only take small stings rather than full tracks to save space and most events are <1 min anyway (especially nights)
Blizzard mostly will only act if they receive a complaint, they're very reactionary but we're still going to try and be respectful where we can.
Keep suggesting. We're likely to add more over the course of the test (we dont want to balloon the map size too much)
-
Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
I'm also for adding:
RASPUTIN - Vladimir Putin - Love The Way You Move
to the game. I don't care if it's the original or remix.
I want the songs below just for troll aspect. Even though I'm a shit-tier troll and would find it hilarious to listen to these songs, I'd get annoyed if they were played too much. A lot of work was put into this version, and I think playing a meme song in every party MIGHT discredit that. But hell, this is Mafia. Who knows what the developers want? They tend to tolerate my trolling, so they probably won't mind adding some troll songs to the mix. I'll respect them more if they do anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It'll show they're not taking this TOO serious and that they recognize sometimes us trolls want to play a good game that's also filthy >:-D.
Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
Baby Shark Dance | Sing and Dance!
Little Einsteins Theme Song
Bag Raiders - Shooting Stars
The second and third songs make me UwU, but I know they'll piss SO many players off. LOL
And. PLEASE no Despacito. I will scream and spam EVERY PARTY NIGHT if I've to listen to that god-awful song.

I can guarantee they'll have to kill me and my next of kin before I let that song get into this map.

Or any other gachi songs, it will make my community very happy.

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
Rickrolling the entire game would be great
I totally agree with that

This is kind of a desperate suggestion, but I'd love it if "Lone Digger" by Caravan Palace was added.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbQgXeY_zi4 The official music video is basically a furry bar fight, but don't tell anyone. It has a pretty good beat :/
And. PLEASE no Despacito. I will scream and spam EVERY PARTY NIGHT if I've to listen to that god-awful song.
no despacito, no baby shark, no stars, no einsteins. Please.
I already stated my opinion on rickroll earlier in the thread: Rare and unselectable.

Some super-troll suggestions so far!
I submit my royalty-free copyright-free work:
https://www.darkrhetoric.com/partyhost2.mp3
I don't care if you even credit me. Fuck, you can say MikeU wrote this gaylord funky disco shit.
Use as you see fit, or not at all. (edit: proof attached)

AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY that'd be dope if this was added. What is that site tho? I just see a creepy pic if I go to the homepage (darkrhetoric.com)
Also what beat did you sample, I know I heard that before.

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
The main drum loop is from a Hed Kandi sample pack (which I own). There are probably a ton of tracks that use it, specifically those on the Hed Kandi compilations UwU
EDIT: On Tuesday at 10:50PM I uploaded an updated version with the main drums re-done from scratch. They're no longer from a Hed Kandi compilation and sound less 70s and more Narcotic Thrust circa 2004.

@Frinckles I think we can make this happen.
All music we use is credited in the help menu. So if it gets used you’ll be in there, and will get a slightly shiny name on the forum for being a contributor. (Can’t remember if we announced that we’re hoping to give the best submitters over the course of the beta those names too but hey keep up the bug reports all
edit: now I think about it we can probably also enabled animated avatars for that subgroup too. Extra bonus :>)

Only gachi songs should be assclap or gillete

no remixs only the originals

Re: Petition to Expand Party Host's Musical Repertoire
The loopable part of vitas the 7th element would be a nice fit too imo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwhLueAWItA
And if you're considering adding music for other roles, I think it'd be absolutely lovely to hear something like Peter Gabriel's In Your Eyes every time one gets jailed.

You just claimed survivor. The jailor is unconvinced.
He points his infamous executioner's rifle right at the back of your head.
You're on your knees, looking down at the ground.
The last thing you would ever hear... Jailhouse Rock by Elvis.
