OverClocked ReMix mentioned in March '08 issue of Electronic Musician

[zircon]

We are proud to announce that you can find a 1/3 page feature about OverClocked ReMix in the latest issue of Electronic Musician (http://www.emusician.com) (March 2008) in their "Front Panel" monthly feature! Electronic Musician (or EM for short) is one of the most popular periodicals for musicians, producers, and composers using modern music technology. Our contact at the magazine, Tracy Katz, had not heard of the site prior to our getting in touch with her in early January, but she became a fan after reading what it was all about. In the future, we'll definitely be providing EM with news of any major OCR developments.

I think I speak for the rest of the staff when I say it's great to see OCR, with it's growing population of highly skilled producers and composers, get some recognition from a music tech magazine! :)

When I was reading the article I read that line "You don't have to be a well-known working professional to be a game music com-poser" as "You don't have to be a well-known working professional to be a game music poser" and I thought to myself "You got that right!"

[anosou]

Absolutely positively sexcellent!
More of these kind of thigns please!

Apt recognition from a fine publication, everyone give yourself a pat on the back.
:nicework:

[Zombie]

Nice!

I think that it is cool that OCR has been featured in something like this.

[Abadoss]

Definitely a cool thing, but I think they may not have picked up on the whole judges panel thing in terms of submitting ReMixes...

[Steffan Andrews]

Very cool. :dstrbd:

Now let's get Tallarico to submit a remix.

[Shadow Wolf]

I thought Tommy already had submitted a mix. Or was that Jeremy Soule? Tommy loves us. He should give us teh mixysecks.

[Abadoss]

Jeremy Soule.

[Moguta]

Can't forget The Fat Man!

And congrats OCR on getting recognition in a print music publication! And the mag's specialization seems especially appropriate, too, since nearly all mixes here involve at least some electronic synthesis, regardless of genre.

Check it out... I just saw this today in one of EM's email newsletters. And I didn't even ask for it! Very kind folks. Y'all should subscribe.

"Be our myspace friend and we will find you!"

That's...a little creepy.

Being a subscriber of Electronic Musician, I decided to send the gang an e-mail through MySpace about OCR being in the magazine. Here is the response I received:

Thanks so much for the kind words! I was very pleased to learn about OCR as well, and I hope they will get more coverage in other publications soon. Everyone who contributes to OCR is so talented; I wish that space requirements weren't so tight in EM so I could write more about the organization/site.
Hopefully Tracy will pester the higher-ups so she can write a longer article. :-P

Jermy Soule remixed Terra's Theme a few years back. Tommy Loves you guys, but he's been busy with Video Games Live .. . which is basically a whole live orchetra remix of our favorite video games! I remember when he firsted metion OC Remix on the Eletric Playground!

Congrants everyone! Let's hope more and more music magazine learns more about OC Remix!

[Steffan Andrews]

Jeremy has transitioned out of game music for the most part and is focusing on film scoring. It's unlikely we will see anything more from him as he is quite busy as well.

[TheSnowStorm]

To be honest, besides Sqauresoft Variation I have never hear any of Soule's works. I should check them out.
