  1. That's funny. On my short list I literally have "Zelda - pick a water dungeon theme" I hadn't even thought of Chrono Trigger! I may just do the Ocean Palace. Thanks for this reccomendation! Right now I'm working on one from Xenoblade Chronicles X.... super excited about it. Hopefully will wrap it up this week. Also about the spin dash, I think you're right. It is just a little too shrill. But I don't feel like it's so bad that I will go back and change it. Kinda adds a punch to the transition I think. Thanks for the feedback!
  2. Late to the party, but I've been checking out other DnB / breakbeat styled mixes lately as I'm starting to branch out a little more in that direction myself. Anyway--WOW! I really dig this! I tend to like to produce more relaxing / slow music myself, so DnB never appealed to me much before, but stuff like this (and other Liquid DnB type music) really inspires me. Absolutely love the buildup and mystery in the beginning, it had me on the edge of my seat curious with where the song was going. And the synth used toward the end was a really nice touch. I've just listened to about 10 breakbeat or dnb songs, and this is the first I've felt compelled to actually post a comment on. Bravo.
  3. I'm potentially going to be working on a small (5 tracks or so) project of DnB remixes. The whole project is going to be "liquid" themed loosely, so if anyone has an idea for a track that would work in this style that is Liquid themed I'm open to suggestions. Could be anything, for example one of the remixes I'm working on is a location theme that has a big lake. This one is related to the lava in Marble zone. I'm by no means heavily into DnB, especially note DnB production, but I do specifically enjoy Liquid DnB and the more melodic side and feel that it fits my general "chill" stylings. So this is my motivation to learn a little and improve my technique, for myself more than anything. Anyway this is the first track, would love any feedback. Remix of Marble Zone zone from Sonic 1, and I think it came out pretty nice! I could see myself submitting this to OCR too eventually, who knows.
  4. Love it. Good stuff. Great mixture of the genres as well. Haven't listened to the full album yet but he first few tracks are really entertaining.
  5. Reminds me of Megaman X. What instruments/synths are you using? (beside guitar obviously). I dig this.
  6. Thanks! And yes, this source is great for so many reasons. I honestly avoided it for a long time because it's been remixed so much, but eventually caved in
  7. Hey guys! Seeing as this forum typically gets 0 replies () I thought I'd try posting something a little interactive! In my listening time, I've been really enjoying the 80's synthwave aesthetic. So much that I've attempted it myself. I would love to hear any more music like this that you guys (&gals) are producing! Heck, I think a project album of Synthwave remixes would be awesome if it hasn't been done yet. Anyway, post your best! I posted a couple of mine below.
  8. Aquatic Ambience with some added original melodies. Little bit of lo-fi, but more of a standard hip-hop / trap tune. Enjoy!
  9. Hey all, For some reason I've been enamored with the idea of writing more orchestral / film score type music. For the heck of it, I put a small piece together, which maybe could be for a short teaser trailer. Thought I would share. I also want to ask those of you who use orchestral samples and score games or film, how did you get into it? And what libraries do you recommend starting with? My track is using the (fantastic) free samples from Spitfire Audio's LABS series, but I've been considering buying the Komplete 12 suite (for multiple reasons) and using their Session Strings libraries.
  10. I really like it. The section from around 1:42 on with the added melodic stuff is REALLY cool, but for some constructive criticism, I feel that the hi-hats throw that part off a bit. I'm trying to find the best way to communicate what I'm hearing.... it's maybe a little too empty? Like I feel like it could use a quieter, but more steady hi-hat underneath the pattern you are using. The pattern itself is fine I think but it's a little jarring with nothing else going on. Idk, maybe someone else is hearing what I'm hearing and can describe more accurately. Great remix!
  11. This was absolutely amazing! So so relaxing. Lurelin village is one of my favorite on BOTW's soundtrack as well. You captured the chill beach vibes perfectly! It actually made me exciting for my trip to San Diego in a few weeks. Great job. I don't really have any criticism, I loved it.
  12. Hey everyone! I would really appreciate any feedback you can give on this track! It started off as a boom-bap / lofi groove, and evolved into something more. The "chorus" section teeters on the edge of more electronic, maybe future bass? Anyway, the general structure of the remix is done, and I'm happy with how it sounds but I feel like it could use something else. Please leave your honest thoughts, feel free to roast the track too if you hate it! Also, one thing in particular, PLEASE let me know what you think of the bass. I've been having trouble reigning it in but it sounds a lot better now than it did a few version ago. Just let me know if it sounds too loud. THANK YOU to anyone who is willing to listen and give feedback! I'd be happy to return feedback if you link me to your post. REMIX (WIP): ORIGINAL SONG:
  13. Was working on / mostly finishing a chill Zelda's Lullaby remix that might actually fit this project: This is definitely in the vein of what I'm looking for in this mix, if anyone is curious. Not sure if this one will actually end up in the album but possibly with some more polish a version of it. Let me know what you guys think. Some of you may be able to contribute something to this too. Another song that I think I will take on for this album is "Tatl and Tael" from Majora's Mask: I can just hear this as a chill boom-bap style chillhop track. We'll see where it goes. Garrett, I think KK Cruisin could be a great addition. I hadn't even considered Animal Crossing tracks but they actually fit the chill/relax vibe perfectly; I'm excited to hear what you come up with.
  14. Hey everyone. Finally found some time to produce this week, thought I would share. I have to admit I'm pretty proud of these two. It's been less than a year since I got back into writing/producing and I can really hear the progress I've made. I'm still narrowing my focus in terms of genre, but I have discovered my love for anything relaxing / chill. Anyway, I hope you enjoy, and I'm open to any feedback
  15. Hey guys Thanks everyone for continuing to support this idea! I know it looks like this is going nowhere, I've been sidetracked moving and building a little studio at my new place and I think I'm finally ready to start pushing this forward. Glad to hear that you guys are already working on your songs. At this point, I think it's a good idea for us to get it down IN WRITING who is working on what. ALSO: I agree w/ RidiculouslyGarrett, let's aim for 10-12 tracks. Keep it simple but not too small. A couple of you have reached out to me on Discord to help with arranging the project, I replied so we can get this going. As for further replies, let's try to actually solidify which songs we want to remix. I want to be careful not to get too exclusive, but let's try to think outside the box and not remix stuff that is overly done already in this genre (for example, there area million Great Fairy Fountain lo-fi remixes out there already). Let's make these 10-12 tracks count! I'm going to be thinking specifically about what tracks I will personally take on today and try to post back by tonight. Right now we're in "planning" mode so let's plan well and get this thing moving! Let's get minimum 1 representation from the core Nintendo series' like Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, DK, and Metroid (just for example As of now we're looking at something like this for a track list: 1. (Zelda) 2. (Mario) 3. (DK) 4. (Metroid) 5. (Pokemon) 6. 7. 8. 9. - 10. - (11). - (12). - With all that said, throw your hat in the ring, let us know what you want to claim / work on!
  16. Hi everyone, Thanks for the comments/interest in this project. I apologize for going dark for so long, but definitely want to get this off the ground eventually. I have been caught up with real life issues, such as moving my whole family into a new place, but getting very close to being freed up for production again. That's the only update I can give for now. I should be much more active on this next Month, when I will be getting some upgrades done to my personal music production setup. Excited for what's to come!
  17. Thanks @Gario and @Liontamer for the responses. Based on what you're saying, I think I'm in the clear on the sampling front. I sampled the voice clip, and a small bit of the intro to the song (a backing pad sound that plays throughout my remix but is very subtle). The vast majority of my remix is not sampled from the ost. Would love to hear your opinions on the remix itself. I've also always been paranoid that my mixing won't be good enough if I submit.
  18. I could probably revamp it without the voice clips, but I thought that the no-sampling rule was only for Square games? Or is that changed?
  19. Hey everyone! Made a new remix. I know Schala's theme has been done a million times but I feel like this is a different take on it. Definitely 80s inspired... Not sure if it fully qualifies as synthwave/outrun. Mix is pretty much done, and I'd like to submit this, but thought it would be prudent to pay a visit here first and get some feedback I start that process. Please share your thoughts! Original: Remix:
  20. I hadn't really considering trying to make this OCR official. Maybe I should? For now I'm aiming for about 40-60min of music in a mix format (which is common with this kind of music) but I'm not opposed to the idea of a more focused OCR album.
  21. Hey guys I know I haven't posted in a while, but this is still something I'd like to do. Got a nasty flu but getting over it now. I've been thinking about how many tracks we want / which games we want to have in this. I'm thinking something like 20 tracks-ish (if they are all at least 2 min then that's at least 40min worth of music) No more than 2-4 tracks based on any specific series so we keep things balanced. No more than 1 remix of any specific song. Those of you that have posted, any thoughts? Do you guys already have completed tracks that you're thinking of submitting to this? I have at least 1 that I think will be good for this mix, which is a Xenoblade 2 remix, but other than that I think anything I personally produce will be brand new for this mix specifically. Happy to hear any other ideas, and if people want to start claiming tracks to remix, go for it!
  22. For sure... actually live bass could be really cool in this style.
  23. Hey everyone! I recently had some success with a Zelda themed chillout mix, and I'd like to get to work on the next big thing as soon as possible. I've had a few ideas kicking around, and I think for the next mix I'd like to do a Nintendo-only remix collection. I also kicked around the idea of doing it genre themed, like an RPG Lofi mix or Platforming mix, so if there is more interest in one or the other I'm open to ideas. So you can get an idea, here is the most recent mix I did: I'm happy with it but I would like to be a little more picky about what songs go into it this time around. This mix was very general "chill" music with several genres included, but this time around I want to narrow the genre and overall mood down a little. What I'm looking for: +Remixers interested in creating some high quality lo-fi, chillhop, jazzhop, vaporwave, etc. remixing Nintendo exclusive games. Can include remixes from Mario, Zelda, DK, etc. and even other Nintendo 2nd party exclusives like Xenoblade Chronicles. +Mix totalling around 60min +In typical lo-fi style, tracks don't need to be super long, but I'd say 2 minutes per track minimum +Anyone interested in helping out with art related to this mix Let me know if you're interested! NOTE: I'm also fine with using existing remixes if you have them, but it would be even better if we could have tracks created with this mix in mind.
