Hey guys, Martin Sargent (The Screen Savers, Unscrewed with Martin Sargent) just released the latest episode of Internet Superstar, episode #60, interviewing djpretzel.

Martin & djp discussed:

• OC ReMix's promotion of game music as an art form;
• Whether game music stacks up to other forms of music in entertainment;
• The many styles of ReMixes available at OCR;
• Game composers submitting music to the site; and
• OC ReMixers entering the industry as professional composers and sound designers.

The show's only about 10 minutes long and a great intro to OCR for anyone who likes video game music, so pass it along. Thanks!

Is it just me or is the audio and the video not synced...by a lot?

[D-Lux]

They're synced, but low quality recording cuts out a lot of frames. Regardless, it's good to see the site getting more attention.

I bet he's wearing pink bunny slippers during this recording.

[SwordBreaker]

Nice. Enjoyed that interview. Capcom's titles for SF are getting extra long indeed, Dave.

[Chiwalker]

Awesome interview, great job!

djpretzel - awesome job, you are so much cooler than I thought! (which was already really cool.)

[HalcyonSpirit]

Great interview. I just felt some of the example remixes (oops, I mean ReMixes) weren't the best ones to use when exposing the site those that are unfamiliar with this place.

I mean, seriously, no rockin' Sixto example? For shame.

[MrBogus]

Nice pad, DJP. Can't say the same for Martin's digs. Looks like he lives in an isolated log cabin built in 1970 in the mountains.

Oh yeah, good interview too. Preaching to the choir for the regulars here, but definitely a good primer for people new to this stuff.

Well hello handsome.;)

Creepy.

[linkspast]

So thats what became of him since the G4 take over...

huh....

This place is getting a lot of attention lately. It wont be too long before EA consumes it and all the remixers...

This is the first time I've seen what DJ Pretzel looks like, and he looks so precisely like this corporal I knew in the army that it's scary. Shape of head, eyebrows, hairline, shape of eyes. Facial hair is trimmed in comparison, but everything else is just right.

I think further study on the matter should be conducted by someone.
