The People's Remix Competition 217
PRCv9-09

Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition!

Last round wasn't the round with the most participation ever. Chickenwarlord saved PRC once again and selected the source.


This round's source is selected by Chickenwarlord:

This next tune is from a pretty classic RTS which has surprisingly little remix coverage on OC despite lots of clear melodies to choose from. The track I have selected is probably the second most well known. on the soundtrack. While technically labeled as 'Orc 2', this piece has become known by my tagging system as 'Ogre March'. Have fun!
Warcraft 2 - Orc 2 (Ogre March)

Wow, beautiful source. Lots of material to work with, nice melodies, passages, riffs, switching between 6/8 and 4/4 time signatures.. there's a lot you can do with this. Nice pick Chickenwarlord!

I certainly hope that this source garners more than one entry. I figured I'd go for a more well known series in hopes of attracting some more entries.

Submitted! I just hope I'm not the only one

Thank you Sggod, for submitting. It makes me happy when there are entries.

Sggod89, you may select a source for PRC218. Send your source to me (with a MID/MP3 file, otherwise send a second source with a MID file) by PM, other options are PM me @ ThaSauce or by e-mailing to bambombim@gmail.com (I prefer a PM @Ocremix).

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:

Pretty cool piece sggod89, I always enjoy hearing your submissions. One crit that I would have is that the mix seems pretty heavy on the low end or lower mids or something, it's somewhat muddy because of that. Not so muddy that I couldn't hear everything, but a little stuffy regardless. But overall a very good combination of synths/guitar textures, good lead work.. nice atmosphere, good balance of aggressive rhythms, atmospheric synth pads and gliding leads.
