Fluidvolt is the best.

They are, just super busy with many upcoming projects. I'm just on the cusp of those guys so I couldn't tell you how often they check the official snesology email.

Hi MCM, sadly there is no such place but there are several people like myself who are doing SNES music and promoting each other (sometimes). Your best bet is through word of mouth. If you have a facebook, bandcamp or youtube, anything of the sort, your best bet is just pushing on all fronts. Feel free to find me on any of these platforms (I'm probably there) and I'll help where I can.

edit:
You could also try emailing the snesology website for info on how to get help promoting music, they help push a lot of indie SNES-related releases, such as my Yoshi's Island comp I put together late last year.

Book of Samuel is a snes concept album I've been working on for like a year. 27 tracks, all snes sounds. Holding a small contest on the facebooks to make me release it already. Might be out this Saturday.

I think 2011 I tried a little databending. Here's a picture of my buddy Billy that I like because of the head split and a picture of me that I thought was kind of neat.

Also to the OP, that obama one is awesome. Really cool subtle effect. Awesome colors.

From what I've gathered the N64's sound was only limited by how much the graphics were taking toll on ram. Hypothetically you could have a very large, probably impractically large, ensemble of sample sets all playing together if there weren't graphics to consider. I'm not 100% sure but this would be very distinct from the SNES, one gen earlier, where sound was limited to a strict 8 channels, 1 typically being reserved for effects (sword swinging, cursor clicks, etc.)

But there has been pretty recent headway into ripping the samples from N64 games and people, like fluidvolt on here, are compiling them into soundfonts which you can use in pretty much any digital workspace. I'd say it's the space saving techniques that developers used to compress the audio files that makes them sound unique and you'll get that with the sample rips.
