Song Extension Request Thread

So I've started extending songs, and I'm making this thread to take requests.

If you want to see the two I have done so far, here's my channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/mmm1217/videos

I know I'm a little late, but I want to reply to you. I did listen to your songs, and they're cool!
In fact, I just noticed you put on Prof. Layton. Sweet deal! What plans do you have for more songs?

Well, I'm actually going to reupload that one, because for some reason it's not showing up in search results. As for plans, I don't really have any. That's why I'm asking for requests. XD

Edit: Well, I seem to be doing SOMETHING wrong, because the one under 15 minutes didn't work, either. Also, does anyone know how I can add tags? As far as I can tell, my attempts to do so aren't working.

Oh. Well, hm. What music do I like enough that I'd like it extended? There's that one song in Professor Layton and the Specter's Flute. I think it's called Afternoon. Love that song. Can't think of any others off the top of my head.
When you upload the songs, doesn't it have a little box for tags? I don't know if you can add any after the fact, but that's what I remember at least.
So, do actually own Persona 4? I've heard it's fantastic, but I haven't gotten the chance to play it. Is it as good as they say it is?

1. Do you mean this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sT0KBg_RS-A

2. It does, but I need to input tags manually, since the suggested tags aren't particularly useful.

3. Yup! And it is a GREAT game, definitely one of my favorites and a recommendation to any RPG fan. If you have a Vita, I'd get Persona 4: Golden, though. I don't have one, but they added a few things there.

Edit: If that was the song you were thinking of, here's an extended version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4JBeEuYTDY

1. That's the one! And thanks for the extended version. It's wonderful. Now I have to wonder, though: how do you do it? Just listen carefully for the segue, then snip-snip, or what?

2. Ah. It tries its best to give you good tags, but if it doesn't... yeah, you've just gotta brute force it.

3. Hmm. That really makes me want to buy it, but I don't think it'd be appropriate to play it around my brothers. Grr. Stupid sexual monsters. > I don't have a Vita; in fact, I don't have a PS3, and rarely play my PS2.

1. It's slightly more complex than that, but not by a lot. First, I listen and identify sections that I can loop, making sure there's nothing different between the start and the end of the sample (and that the soundwaves are a close match). Then, between the available track (available being from the point where the intro ends to where the fadeout starts), I identify a distinct soundwave mark. I highlight it, and it's pair further down the track, then zoom all the way into the distinct spot. I refine the highlighted sample to a even more distinct section (since at this point it starts just looking like lines that go up and down), repeat on the other end, then start pasting the sample until the song is the desired length. It sounds complicated, but it's actually pretty easy; the conversion to video using Windows Live Movie Maker takes longer.
