    • Hello, I'm sharing a wip for a remix of Tomorrow and Tomorrow after receiving live feedback on the OCremix discord. The goal was to mimic the style of Imagine Dragons (ie Warriors) Source from 0:00 - 1:05 of    and below is a earlier wip to compare changes I've made (for better or worse)  
    • Gotta say, this has a lot of inspirational moments. You guys definitely hooked me with the beginning given my uhh tendencies for vocals haha. But what I enjoy the most is the rhythmic elements have a lot of flavor to them. They often given the ear not just new patterns, but new textures to enjoy as well. Nice track guys! Even though I've never played a Metroid game or know any of the music, this felt familiar in the best of ways.
    • I think the change in genres could work - but you'd need to add space for the transition.  I have to agree with the other comments here though - would love to see more work from you, especially in that first genre (but I'm biased towards EDM haa haa).
    • Hey there, I am taking a guess that this is more a 1:1 cover of the sources Theme of Aya / Eve's Theme, in combination? I will say, I do like some of your new instrument choices, but I am...unsure if this is presented for feedback or as a possibility to submit to OCR? If it is for the latter rather than the former, the unfortunate thing is, because a lot of this sounds like an 'upgrade' to the sources, and not a cover or a remix, it would not be eligible. Your picking of the new instruments is on-point, but because you're using straight rips from the source, and this is not pure MIDI and sampling to make your own spin on the sources, it would get rejected in Panel. I would suggest--nay, encourage--you to explore different options in making these covers more expansive, and then treading into absolutely new territory with a remix. Firstly, in making a 1:1 cover, I would stick to a single source, because this Parasite Eve one is layering two sources together, and notes are clashing (as in, hitting sour notes and sounding dissonant throughout). Some of it is the instrument choices playing together, and some of it is simply that the two sources don't match in key. So I think it's in your best interest, especially if you're just starting out in making music, to use ONE source, and play around with it. Add chords, take away elements, play with SOLELY the MIDI of the piece, and change every instrument, and see what shakes loose. :) It'd do you a lot of good, as well as sharing your journey with others in a workshop. Those are my suggestions, but this is a great starting point and a good stepping stone.
    • I really like the song and the mix.  The only critique I'd have (which isn't much) is that there is a midrange where the frequencies are just a little low or there isn't a lot of instrumentation (maybe over-filtered bass and percussion to give room for synths?)  It's just slightly noticeable but not huge.  I think overall your dnb music is fabulous and I really hope you do more vgm remixes.  We need more dnb imo and you have a really good knack for it.
