The mouse and keyboard on the console do not belong!

I honestly don't think you should make a mountain out of a mole hill. I personally think that it's a great idea, as it opens the opportunity to have other genres of games on Xbox, that rely on a mouse and keyboard, or offer a new experience. Devs are gonna
have some fun, alright!

Toe Jam and Earl 3

I LOVE this series. I showed this to Sinar already, but when I was running a game website I reviewed the Xbox TJ&E. Sega loved the review and asked if I they could do anything for me in return so I asked if anyone knew where to get the theme song written out for keyboards.

Two days later I get this email:

Hi Mike:

I never really sat down and "officially" charted this out as I basically tried to follow and stay true to the Groove and melody of the original, but here's a rough guide:

The First 8 bars just sort of grooves with the Bass and Funky clav part Between an A(minor?) and a G chord. Works Best if you leave out the third from the A chord giving it more of a Fifth feel rather than making it major or minor. But I guess it works as an Aminor chord too:

4/4 measures 1-3
l l l l
ll: {Am G } X 3 measures

4th measure something like:
l l l l
{Am G Am } :ll repeat this 4 bar section once.

----------------------------------------------

Measures 9-17 change up the chords as follows:

4/4 9 10
l l l l l l l l
ll: {Am " " " } {D E }

11 12
l l l l l l l l
ll: {Am " " " } {D E " D }

13 14
l l l l l l l l
ll: {Am " " " } {D E }

15 16
l l l l l l l l
ll: {Am " " " } {D E " D } etc. etc.

Its a little more syncopated than I can write out here, but jam along with the melody and these chords should get you in the ballpark. The D chord can be substituted with a Dminor chord and it still works, but its closer to the original with no third in the chord voicing leaving it nebulously neither major nor minor.

These are the two main sections and everything else sort of springs from this so play around with it and have fun!

The main thing is the interplay between the funky walking bassline and the clavlike keyboard parts. Lots of funky movement, but not a lot of static block chords.

Thanks for the interest-
Hope this helps.

BTW/ where can I find your review of the game?

There is one thing you might be able to do for me. You wouldn't happen to
have a chord chart for the TJE theme do you? Or know who might be able to
write the chords out for a keyboard? I have this beautiful Yamaha Clavinova
with the perfect beat for it, and I have the melody but can't figure the
chord structure out.

The composer of the theme song actually emailed me. And so now you all have it as well if you want to try to play it. I doubt there is any copyright on it as the guy simply jotted it down for me. But how cool is that?
