Hi all, This is Digital Coma, the "director" or organizer for this album. It's been more than a decade since I was last involved in OCR and Kong in Concert feels like a lifetime ago, but I thought I'd drop by and say a few words after all these years. It's pretty neat to see that KiC still has an audience almost 12 years on. Looking back, it's safe to say that I didn't always know what I was doing with what was to be the follow up to OCR's very first remix album. We did things on the fly, we struggled to put together a team, and there were plenty of mistakes made along the way. But what started out as a small summer side project with no lack of naysayers and haters ended up a surprisingly big hit, and in the end we had a solid homage album whose impact in the community I'm happy to see continues today. I won't say much more since I like that there's some legend surrounding how everything came together. But I do want to give thanks to everyone who's enjoyed the music over the years, and a special thanks to the remixers, djp, and OCR for making it all possible. Cheers, DC

Good to see that this is happening.

so connect it one time, then. my connection restriction is due to a static IP that's blocked at the router level from accessing external traffic. it's got full access to the rest of my network that way. i just disable that firewall for a few minutes, activate, and then wall it off again.

there's two schools of thought on that. one is that more cores is better, and even an old i7 (my music pc still has an i7-860 in it, 2.93ghz x8, sells for about 100$ now) can be really nice. the other is that ghz rules supreme, and the i5-4790 is certainly a good example of that. look at what you're using, and what you want to use, and scale appropriately. if you're using a 2500K right now and want to double your performance, a 4790 might not be enough - or maybe it will be, depending on whether your apps are properly and consistently multithreaded. i usually get specific examples so i can suss out what's good and not for this. as for keeping it offline, frankly i just buy the software and then download a crack. that way, i own it, and i use it in the way i want to (which is on a pc that can't access the internet). very few VSTs really don't have any offline activation, though, there's only a few i've had to do that for.

pretty sweet to see more well written content for esports, Deia and I also watch a lot of LCS

I don't know if these old media companies really have what it takes to catch up with the momentum services like Twitch have at this point.

I watch so much LoL LCS, the production quality is higher than most prime-time football coverage over here.

Seeing as how I'm still in college, I can't really pay out, but I shared the link on Facebook and Twitter; hope it helps!

Yes, that's correct; the YouTube link points to the right source. Underground Caverns, 1797 is the name of the location and year in which it's heard. Thematically, the cultists' summoning has caused the Burning Town from 1792 to appear merged with the Underground Caverns of 1797.

i watched it with friends right before the ball drop on new year's eve/day. it was fantastic. so incredibly 80s.

It's a demo for Factor 5's MusyX system. IGN posted two of them, one by Hulsbeck and one by Rudolf Stember: http://www.ign.com/articles/2000/08/24/the-sounds-of-the-game-boy-advance (Thanks for never changing the filename from chris_gba.mp3 because that was the only reason I was able to find this)

Said it a few times now but again thank you so much for putting this composition through! It's actually really nice to hear people saying it's too short! Usually I just assume that people will have really short attention spans, and because no one really knows me as a musician, I feel the need to cram in as much as possible into a short space of time. To a fault really haha. And the notes about the production are very fair, I definitely struggle with production. But this is so sick and I'm so happy people enjoy it! This has definitely given me a kick up the backside to start creating more content and to sort out my music accounts. Watch this space, I'm feeling a Binding of Isaac cover next Cheers!

This sounds like something Chris Hülsbeck would have made. The fact that Chris is in the file name also lends credence to this. He was involved with developing audio compression technology for the GBA which was licensed out to various developers.

This sounds like an arrangement that would appear in a Smash Bros game. It’s so energetic and rocking. It’s too bad that this track is so short. But again, I definitely get a Smash Bros. vibe out of this. So I can forgive the length (as well as the fade out ending).
