PRC209 - Results Are In - Sonic takes Underground to Desert Land (Sonic 2 + Bahamut Lagoon)

[Bundeslang]

The People's Remix Competition 209
PRCv9-01

Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition! (http://www.doulifee.com/prc/PrcSong/PRCcommercial.wmv)

After a couple of bad rounds, last PRC was a very good one with six songs. DJ Mokram remixed the source of PRC207 and got a bonus but it was only enough to equalize Binweasel. Every song received some points last round. Now it's time for a new season, already the nineth.


Source 1 is selected by DJ Mokram
Hey Bundeslang, here's my source pick for Round #209:

The game has already been covered in both OCR and PRC, but luckily, the source in question has not. ;)
Not ashamed to say it's proly my favorite Sonic game, even over the awesome Genesis ones.
It's sad that not many people know about this one because it's super fun and the music is fantastic imo.
Here's hoping that another underrated game and its soundtrack gets some love thanks to the PRC.
Cheers


Source 2 is selected by Binweasel:
Desert Land Daphira from Bahamut Lagoon for the SNES!
And since the midi is a little terrible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5DNb776Oxs

When you are not able to login, don't click on the 'click here to submit an entry' button, but click on the 'you are not logged in' button on the right top of the screen.

When you cannot visit the ThaSauce page (and get an amazing movie of Emma Watson, you probably are using Internet Explorer. Try to open the page a few times, or use a different browser (like Google Chrome or Firefox). That should work. When you still have the problem, it's fine to upload the song somewhere else and post a link in this thread (and vote by sending me a PM).

Sorry, but ThaSauce seems to be not able to solve this problem.


GOOD LUCK!

Excellent sources. I will probably do something with the 2nd one.

[evktalo]

Yeah, nice sources, both of them. I haven't played Sonic 2 for SMS, but Sonic 1 for Master System was a solid game with some nice tunes in it.

The second source sounds promising. If I can figure out how to recreate the bass sound that I used in Kirby Benassi in a different synth, I might enter. If not...hell, I still might enter. :tomatoface:

[Dj Mokram]

I haven't played Sonic 2 for SMS, but Sonic 1 for Master System was a solid game with some nice tunes in it.Sonic 2 is one of the best games on the system, hands down. And the music is just awesome (http://www.smspower.org/Music/SonicTheHedgehog2-GG). ;)

Excellent source from Binweasel. Freaking love Bahamut Lagoon and I'm a huge fan of Noriko Matsueda! :smile:
Really hoping to find enough time to enter this round...

[Chickenwarlord]

Mmmm...Noriko Matsueda. Loved Bahamut Lagoon. I'll see what I can swing.

[Bundeslang]

A little over an hour left.

[evktalo]

I uploaded my piece. We have two mixes now. :)

--Eino

[Dj Mokram]

Make that three. ;-)

Evktalo did well, but not well enough to not win the last place wooden spoon with ten point

Congratulations DJ Mokram and Sggod89, you both won this round. Each of you may select the next source for PRC210. Send your source to me by PM (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/private.php?do=newpm&u=8264), other options are PM me @ ThaSauce (http://thasauce.net/modules.php?name=Private_Messages&mode=post&u=78) or by e-mailing to bambombim@gmail.com (I prefer a PM @Ocremix). Do that as soon as you can, but before Friday.

Remember to select a source with a MID file added. You may also select a source without a MID, but then you must provide a second source with a MID file.

You may select any source from any game, as long as it doesn't have an Overclocked Remix and it hasn't been on PRC before. Check it at the list:

Wow. Another tie. I really like this, I am so voting in the next PRC. You guys got a new fan!

[evktalo]

Awesome, BlackRazgriz, that's really great to hear!

Thanks for the feedback in the votes, everyone. I hope to return to the track one day, I started without inspiration but ended up with an idea how to go on (and got more from the feedback!). For me this is the great benefit of competitions and deadlines - you can force yourself to work and end up with things that you wouldn't have started otherwise.

you can force yourself to work and end up with things that you wouldn't have started otherwise.
Amen to that. I had forgotten about this great upside from missing all those rounds.
This year I'm gonna try to free time in order to enter PRC more regularly. :)
