The People's Remix Competition 97
PRCv4-19

Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition! (www.doulifee.com/prc/PrcSong/PRCcommercial.wmv) PRC96's BioMetal related compo ended up being the center of one of the compo's strangest competitions yet, and in the midst of all this strangeness, FiremanJoe took his first win with his own Pop Idol brand parody on the source tune.

If that wasn't going to be strange enough, this PRC will take us to a game that practically ALL of us must have experienced at some point or other. Love it or hate it, we can't deny that it's a bestseller on the Gameboy, and with a remix project on the way for it as well, we can only wonder what this compo will bring. Still, when it comes to entries, I'm gonna catch 'em all!

I'm so excited about winning PRC! (as bad a week as it was) =P
I've picked the sourcetune for next comp. I love (this game series's) soundtracks.. wish there were more remixes.
Thanks. =) Have a good week!

With that left aside, it's time we got to mixing. Last one to Indigo Plateau's a one-legged Charmander!

GOOD LUCK!

Meh. As much as I dislike Pokemon, I'm starting to get ideas for a...unique remix. It's a kind of catchy song. I think I'll enter this week.

[Xaleph]

It's been a while since I've done a song for prc - but this is a really evil style song. If you know me, I'm all about teh evilz. Depending on how much time I've got, I may submit a real quickie.


- Xaleph (dj carbunk1e)


edit: I should challenge prophecy or somethin when I see him on later =P.

[Chickenwarlord]

Great... Xaleph and Prophecy entering? I shouldn't even bother :).

[Xaleph]

Great... Xaleph and Prophecy entering? I shouldn't even bother :).

I doubt proph will - but I'm going to try and do a little something.

I've also lost my touch, I've recently swung back into remixing. I wouldn't expect a whole lot.

[Hylian Lemon]

Urgh. I'll be without internet access the week after this coming week, and I need something cleared up.

The remixes are due early next Saturday morning...so does this mean voting will begin on Saturday? I'm leaving Sunday morning, and I will have a fraction of time before I leave, but Saturday would be nicer. Not voting is clearly not an option.

Should I magically happen to win (haha), I shall get a friend to relay my song choice to you all.

My remix is coming along swimmingly (that's what my own ears tell me, anyway). I hope everyone else enjoys remixing this song. Despite my initial disgust at the sight of the word "Pokemon", I've grown to like the source quite a bit. After beating it into submission for hours, of course.

[Deductive Dave]

Ooh, nice choice, FiremanJoe. I'm going to have to make something for this one. Hopefully I'll have enough time to pull off something decent.

[Theory of N]

I wanna join damnit...

Assuming we get a healthy number of entries by early next Saturday, the voting stage should start immediately after the mixing stage's deadline. I hope that answers your question :)

[Hylian Lemon]

So, about the ID3v2 tagging...in the archives, it says we're supposed to follow OCR's guidelines, but recent PRC submissions haven't. Do we need anything besides title, artist, and album?

And then the filenames of the submissions on ThaSauce are pretty uniform. Does it sort that out automatically?

[Deductive Dave]

Yeah - it renames and retags the files automatically.

[Hylian Lemon]

Do people usually wait until the last minute to enter? Maybe I'm just nervous. XD

ENTER, PEOPLE. MY LAST PLACE POSITION NEEDS TO AT LEAST HAVE AN INSANELY AWESOME HIGH NUMBER ATTACHED.

I hope dissing my own entry doesn't count as a qualitative comment.

Heck no! The wooden spoon will be mine!

[Deductive Dave]

Song submitted. A very, ahem, interesting interpretation, I might add.

[Chickenwarlord]

I hast done thine solemn duty and voted.

[Rexy]

Voting time is over!

I see there's been some quiet yet quantitive voting. Let's see what we can make of the final result.

Total number of mixes: 3
Total number of voters: 10
Highest possible score: 30

Deductive Dave swung his way into third place with 14 points.

Nutritious just about edged his way into second place with 19 points.

And the winner by an unanimous decision is Hylian Lemon with 30 points!

Congratulations, Lemon (do I call you that?). You've scored your first PRC victory, and now it's fair that I instruct you on what happens next. What you need to do now is to choose a source material for PRC98 - it can be any song, as long as it hasn't been covered on OCRemix yet (though you CAN do tracks that aren't covered in the official roster of remixes but ARE covered in site projects). Once you've made a decision, send me a PM and I'll start making preparations for the next contest.

Thanks very much for your time, everyone. I'll see you again this coming Friday.

[Hylian Lemon]

o.o I won? *checks scores* No wai- Oh, I did. Well congrats to everyone who entered. I'll get that PM sorted in a moment.

And yes, you can call me Lemon :3
