Hello all. I just released my new Goa Trance album, Flight To Europa with my new project A Flying Dryad. This means that Reunion is back and open for submissions, but I don't know how active we will be. Our hiatus lasted almost 6 years so most artists who contributed before have probably moved on by now. I made the album using Renoise Tracker, so it's NOT like the stuff you're used to hearing from me. I've spent most of this year working on the album so it would be cool if you would check it out. If you're interested in Goa/Psy that is. Album can be streamed on youtube or downloaded from bandcamp (name your price). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJvmJRLb_cI https://aflyingdryad.bandcamp.com/releases http://platonistmusic.com/reunion cheers Jonas

As a fellow user and a fan of your OCRs, I *need* to check out what you are doing with Renoise

Ok so here is my take on this. I'm speaking this from my view, yours might be different. I don't want to influence your choice, i just want to help a man, with Source Block (Writer's Block but in the context of PRC. What? It's a thing, i'm trying my best lol). Anyways. File Select does not appear on the soundtrack, so that's ruled out. These are the ones that are too short to be useful: Mystic Invasion (Still a good tune though) The Little Sprite (I find this a little silly, not that it's bad) I Closed my Eyes (It's 30 seconds tops, with only really 10 seconds of material, before it's looped. Same can be said for most of the ones on this category) It Happened Late One Evening (This reminds me of a child's cartoon. No bass either) I Closed My Eyes is only 30 seconds, and this of course, is with looping. Most of what I've heard on the ones I've mentioned so far (The short ones), is a little on the repetitive side, so it's going to be hard to remix. My personal favourites on the list, that i like, and probably recommend: The Oracle (A kickass rave like tune, something for the nightclub) Meridian Dance (It has a lot of nicely balanced tonal and rhythmical elements, that sort of suit your style) Did you See the Ocean (I really love the melody here....like really really) A Conclusion (Despite it being one sound, the melody and chords are really great) These aren't too short, and they have a lot of interesting ideas, plus they're easy to remix. A Conclusion is a little on the short side, but i really like this one so... These ones, are lengthy enough, but have nothing useful to give, musically and sonically (In this case, only serves for atmosphere): Ceremony (I find this one too silly) The Curse (I feel it's more Sound Effects, than Music, like a short looped soundscape) And the ones, that sound good, but might be hard to remix: Monarch on the Shore (A lot of triplet usage here, not sure about that) Morning is Here (A bit too repetitive, which might make it a challenge) Steel and Snare (The kick, sounds crazy here) In the Dead of the Night (A bit on the short side, and relies on constrained melodic ideas) Prophecy (This one is wacky with the time signatures) These ones are also good, but i find them a bit on the boring side: Secret of the Arid Sands (I find this a bit too...er...minimal. Needs more) Calm Before the Storm (I find it a little short and repetitive) These tracks, are really good, but they don't differentiate from each other, in terms of style and genre: Fear of the Heavens (Strings and Bass. Pretty much. Chords are great though) Now Flightless Wings (This one is especially good, another favourite, but it's lacking instrumentation in the second half) The Wind Never Ceases (Again sounds good, but i think it's another short one) Eternal Recurrence (Very similar to the others, in terms of style and genre, of course different, in melody) This is what i take on it. You might think differently. Let me know, what your thoughts are, this might be a bit too much for you lol.

OC ReMix presents Songs of the Sirens: Link's Awakening ReMixed! September 20, 2019 Contact: press@ocremix.org FAIRFAX, VA... Celebrating today's highly anticipated re-release of Link's Awakening on the Nintendo Switch, OverClocked ReMix today released its 71st free community arrangement album, Songs of the Sirens: Link's Awakening ReMixed. Featuring 14 tracks from 14 artists, Songs of the Sirens pays tribute to Nintendo's 1993 handheld classic The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, and is co-directed by OC ReMix veterans William "WillRock" Harby & Emery "DaMonz" Monzerol. The album is available for free download at http://sirens.ocremix.org. Songs of the Sirens pulls together a talented roster of musicians honoring this legendary soundtrack in a variety of styles, including EDM, orchestral, jazz, prog rock, and more. Songs of the Sirens was made by fans, for fans, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Nintendo; all games, characters, images, and original compositions are copyright their respective owners. "Right after we finished Mirror Image, we already half-jokingly talked about making another Zelda album at some point," recalled directors Harby and Monzerol. The duo were motivated by Nintendo announcing their next-gen revival of the exemplary Game Boy best-seller. "As soon as the Link's Awakening remaster for the Nintendo Switch was announced, we realised now was the perfect time to do the album," Harby and Monzerol added. The album's artwork -- depicting a stone carving of Koholint Island's mysterious Owl and Wind Fish characters -- was designed by Canadian artist Roxanne Chartrand. Songs of the Sirens marks OC ReMix's fourth Legend of Zelda series album, following 2017's Mirror Image tributing A Link to the Past, 2011's 25YEARLEGEND commemorating the franchise's 25th anniversary, and 2010's Threshold of a Dream previously honoring Link's Awakening. "Link's Awakening is very special to us, and we wanted to show the depth of our appreciation of the game and its music by releasing an arrangement album simultaneously with the remaster," explained co-directors Harby and Monzerol. "This album was very much a labour of love, and we hope that translates to the finished product!"

Wow. I’ve only managed to listen to half of the tracks so far, but when I listen to the rest I’ll definitely be comparing notes.

Oh, I think I can top you in annoyingness AND difficulty to deal with, mah boi. I just recently had a meltdown in one of the private chats for a current project, I will say no more beyond that. One of about 2 dozen ,maybe, in why whole time at OCR?? I can't handle stress for shiiiit. Maybe that's why I prefer the lax atmosphere in this corner of the woods. On to relevant stuff...I should've at least phoned an entry in. Ah well. I like the discreet additions you put in [Nebulous Funk] to switch things up. Production quality is OK. I appreciate the generous amount of reverb too, (edit) I love going full-ham on the reverb lmao. edit2 Sorry turnout wasn't optimal @Rejwan. Hopefully your next pick will see more attention.

Source, thal shall be-eth up soon oh great one.. I can be a handful lol

Thanks for the suggestion, TVG. I don't think I'll choose that one but at least it got me off my butt. It's actually not too bad to look at a game soundtrack here on OCR and see which tracks already have remixes after all. For reference, the tracks in Secret of Mana that would be eligible for PRC right now are: a conclusion calm before the storm ceremony file select did you see the ocean eternal recurrence i closed my eyes in the dead of night it happened late one evening meridian dance monarch on the shore morning is here mystic invasion now flightless wings prophecy secret of the arid sands steel and snare the curse the little sprite the oracle the wind never ceases Maybe I'll choose one of them

Turns out the OST was by up-and-comer Megan McDuffee! She just announced the list of links where to OST can be found: https://ffm.to/rivercitygirlsost (A few other familiar names appear farther down the tracklist too, interestingly enough.) She also has some pretty cool stuff on her Bandcamp - https://meganmcduffee.bandcamp.com. (The Hostile Takeover soundtrack is quite nice, great replay value.)
