OC ReMix Unveils ReMixer Skills/Collaboration Database!
For Immediate Release
March 17th, 2008
Contact: David W. Lloyd, dlloyd@ocremix.org
FAIRFAX,VA--OverClocked ReMix today unveiled a new area of its website, www.ocremix.org (http://www.ocremix.org), which allows registered artists to see who else uses a specific piece of music software, plays a particular instrument, or possesses other musical skills such as singing, audio engineering, and writing lyrics. The feature is designed to help aspiring artists see who uses what, to aid in evaluation of potential purchases, and to facilitate collaboration between all musicians registered on the site's forums.
The entrance to the skills/collaboration database is online at:
http://www.ocremix.org/remixing/ (http://www.ocremix.org/remixing/)
Registration on the site' forums is free; during and after registration, users are allowed to select the musical skills and tools they possess, and also indicate their willingness/availability to collaborate. These selections are reflected on the skills/collaboration interface, allowing ReMixers to find prospective collaborators more easily. Andrew Aversa, judge, ReMixer, and Project Director for Final Fantasy VII: Voices of the Lifestream (http://ff7.ocremix.org/) writes:"I've been collaborating with other mixers for years, but it's always been a bit tricky to find people with specific skills. The ability to see who is using what tools, and actually get more info and even BUY those tools, is also just incredibly cool. I wish I had access to this stuff when I first got to OCR!"
Founded in 1999, OverClocked ReMix is an organization dedicated to the appreciation, preservation, and interpretation of video game music.
