VROOM: The Best of SEGA Racing - ONE MONTH TO GO! Check your inboxes guys! :)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCITING NEWS!!! Finally, the VROOM ALBUM PREVIEW ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VROOM: The Best of SEGA Racing. Director: AkumajoBelmont Co-Directors: Level 99, KyleJCrb and Brandon Strader WIP 1 DUE DATE: March 1st 2011 - DONE WIP 2 DUE DATE: July 1st 2011 WIP 3 DUE DATE: November 6th 2011 FINAL WAV'S DUE BY: May 2 2012 Absolute FINAL WAV'S IN BY: June 2 2012 ;) **I'm looking into getting some artwork done for some sigs and banners soon, so anyone who's interested, HIT ME UP!!! Thanks to DJ Mokram for this banner: ![]() ... the keyring on the Ferrari is uber-charming :D The aim of VROOM is to create the best collection of driving tunes imaginable; a collection of ReMixes covering the very best music from SEGA’s Arcade and Home Console Racing heritage. But first, how about I provide a little exposition? Imagine yourself, deciding on some random whim, to go for a drive on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Windows down, sun blaring, you speed out of your driveway and off down the road. Imagine that you put your favourite mix CD or playlist on. What kind of music would compliment your appreciation of this gorgeous day? Do you want to cruise? Or maybe speed up a bit? Or perhaps ram someone off the road because the bastard cut you off; all the while, the skies are blue and the road beckons you to continue. You don’t really care where you end up. All that matters is that, for now at least, it’s just you, your car, the perfect playlist and the open road. This is the feeling we want to capture on this ReMix album. The music from SEGA’s racing back catalogue lends itself perfectly to this ideal... mostly because that entire vibe essentially started with OutRun (bar perhaps the road rage), and continues to be such right up to this point. The vast majority of SEGA Racing games support this ideal and it is in this that the inspiration for this Project comes. That and the fact that SEGA‘s Racing music is legendary. You could hear “Daytonaaaaaaaaaaaa” ANYWHERE, and you know exactly what it means, what it’s from, and that everyone else around you knows the tune. The same goes for anything from OutRun. These tracks are iconic in ways that very, very few other game music tracks could ever hope to be. Now, in keeping with the spirit of the SEGA arcade racer, the album will be segmented into the following sections: *Easy/Beginner: ReMixes to CRUISE to... *Medium/Advanced: ReMixes to SPEED to... *Hard/Expert: ReMixes to commit ROAD RAGE to... *Lakeside/Bonus: Bonus tracks & Credits Theme ReMix. You know, similar to how the courses are laid out in Daytona USA and SEGA Rally. Pretty novel, no? Anyways, I do believe this ReMix Project is rather unique in concept, as there aren’t a ton of ‘Greatest Hits’ ReMix albums out there. Games we will be covering in VROOM are as follows: *Daytona USA *Sega Rally Championship *OutRun *OutRunners *OutRun 2019 *Hang-On *Sonic R *Cyber Speedway/Gran Chaser *Super Monaco GP *Metropolis Street Racer *NASCAR Arcade *Sega GT *Virtua Racing *Power Drift *Indy 500 ---------------------------------------------------- We've got 1 track still left open... the classic Conditioned Reflex from Sega Rally!!! If you'd like to claim this track, send me a PM here on OCR!!! KEY: track claimed WIP submitted substantial WIP submitted Final WAV submitted and approved ---------------------------------------------------- Daytona USA King of Speed [Takenobu Mitsuyoshi] (PrototypeRaptor, Benjamin Briggs) Daytona USA Daytona (Let's Go Away) [Takenobu Mitsuyoshi] (Level 99, AkumajoBelmont) Daytona USA Sky High [Takenobu Mitsuyoshi] (Palpable) Sega Rally Championship Conditioned Reflex [Takenobu Mitsuyoshi] FREE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60eNVxFQBSY Sega Rally Championship Getting Muddy [Takenobu Mitsuyoshi] (Brandon Strader) Sega Rally Championship (SATURN) My Dear Friend, Rally [Naofumi Hataya, Kenneth Ibrahim, Tetsuya Mizuguchi] (AkumajoBelmont) Sega Rally Championship (SATURN) Desert Replay [Naofumi Hataya] (Txai) Sega Rally Championship (SATURN) Forest Replay [Naofumi Hataya] (DJ Mokram) Outrun Last Wave [Hiroshi Miyauchi] (Level 99) Outrun Magical Sound Shower [Hiro, Fumio Itoh, Keisuke Tsukahara] (CLAIMED by Rexy) Outrun Magical Sound Shower [Hiro, Fumio Itoh, Keisuke Tsukahara] (CLAIMED by Level 99) Hang-On Outride a Crisis [SST] (Level 99) Hang-On Winning Run [SST] (Sixto) Sonic R Can You Feel the Sunshine [Richard Jacques feat TJ Davis] (AkumajoBelmont) Sonic R Like Diamonds in the Sky [Richard Jacques feat TJ Davis] (ProtoDome) Sonic R Like Diamonds in the Sky [Richard Jacques feat TJ Davis] (DarkeSword) Cyber Speedway/Gran Chaser Knight Gear [Koji Hayama] (AkumajoBelmont) Super Monaco GP Theme of Monaco [SEGA] (Rayza) MSR Am I Only Dreaming [Richard Jacques feat TJ Davis] (Duesenberg) MSR Time [Richard Jacques feat TJ Davis] (AkumajoBelmont, DiGi Valentine & Steff Marton) MSR Let's Get It On [Richard Jacques] (Dj Mokram, DiGi Valentine) Virtua Racing Menu/Mode Select [SST] (José the Bronx Rican) Power Drift Side Street [SST] (Brandon Strader) Indy 500 Bay Side Street [SEGA] (Sir Jordanius) Sega GT Rave Racer [SEGA] (Benjamin Briggs) NASCAR Arcade Revvin' Up [Crush 40] (Tuberz McGee) Medley of Outrun 2019 'Victorious' & 'Relight My Fire' (DJMystix) Medley OutRunners 'Picture the Rivers' & OutRun 'Magical Sound Shower' (DJMystix) We've got Private Subforums here on OCR for this project too, so everything should be as smooth and go down as well as a bourbon and coke on a Friday evening. One thing I do ask with this project is that keep we keep the remixes cheery and upbeat, regardless of genre. The point of the album should be clear by now, so I don’t think I need to reinforce why this is important. So, in closing, VROOM: The Best of SEGA Racing promises to be the best collection of driving tunes ever. With music covering SEGA’s most popular racing titles (and with a few lesser known, but still totally awesome tracks), VROOM promises to be all your best sunny, Saturday afternoons all rolled into one album. And you can’t argue with that, can you?

What a great project idea!! I've needed a new car CD for some time, haha.
I'd like to suggest that if enough people want in that a track or two from Sega and Sonic All-Stars Racing be added, as it is probably the best kart racer out for the current generation (yep, better imo than MKWii).

Hey, awesome to see you finally announced this album. You know I have a real soft spot in my heart for Sonic R, so it's great to see two tracks from that game claimed. I'd really like to see someone or some group tackle that Crush 40 track, too. Good luck!

This will be the single greatest project ever released on OCR. Anyone who disagrees is quite simply wrong.

Once these mixes are released, I can die happy Got a feeling those ones will be mixed with "Cruise" in mind, but I can't help but wonder what they'd sound like in "ROAD RAGE" mode. Last edited by Icrosonze; 11-03-2010 at 06:14 PM. |
