The album is available for free download at https://remixjump.ocremix.org. Featuring seven tracks from six artists in a variety of styles, the album contains multiple tributes to fan-favorite franchises Dragon Ball Z, One Piece & Yu-Gi-Oh! through their games on the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and Wii. Shonen ReMix Jump! was made by fans, for fans, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any manga, anime, or game publisher or developer; all images, characters, and original compositions are copyright their respective owners.

Sasha's captivating cover for Shonen ReMix Jump! include the Dragon Ball Z, One Piece & Yu-Gi-Oh! series protagonists, Monkey D. Luffy, Goku & Yugi Muto, respectively. "It's been six years since I floated the idea for this album and I'm so ecstatic about its release!" exclaimed album director Malik "WiFiSunset" Williams. "Shonen Jump, and anime in general, has always been something I've loved, from watching Dragon Ball Z as a kid on Adult Swim (Midnight Run) to now, where there's so much of a wonderful abundance of different anime." Shonen ReMix Jump! is the second OC ReMix community album inspired by properties originating in comics and animation, following 2014's Shell Shocked, an powerhouse rock & metal musical tribute to Konami's famous 16-bit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games. "I've been mulling this over for a while now, and I'm absolutely certain that we'll have a volume II sort of thing for this album in the future." album co-director Williams anticipated. "I deeply appreciate the perseverance and determination from all the artists on this album."

  2. It has the same title/name, bass, and piano. Now if you're going to make fun of remixes of a incendiary title that sponsors car totaling you might as well lock this thread in case someone on an actual highway hears this song and creates a car accident with someone else while driving.

  3. For anyone who might be interested, The Blind Prophet has been released for Steam and GOG, and other markets like Switch and PS4 consoles to follow, I think. I did the majority of the soundtrack and the 3rd game I've worked on to actually get released. This is a highly visual and artist-driven project using point'n'click adventuring for a 6-8 hour story that goes into some seriously dark and gritty territory. Although I myself am not fully versed on the story or progression (I wouldn't have had time to get into it over the last year), it combines elements of SIN CITY, Boondock Saints, John Constantine and similar as its modus personae. I combined quite a lot of genre elements for my work on the soundtrack including: * Gothic church organ * Heavy, dark, Motoi Sakuraba-style orchestral * Downtempo Trip-Hop * Minimalist Techno * Resident Evil-style dark ambient * Resident Evil-style minimalist score material with more conventional composition and arrangement. * Chrono Cross-style emotional score for one track. * NIN-style Industrial * A parody of Pink Floyd's "Money" that then turns into a much more subtle parody of Steve Hackett's "The Ballad of The Decomposing Man". * One song from my Saturn Icarus album that was licensed/used as a minigame track because it was fun, unexpected, and I ran out of time to produce a brand new track. :P I don't have the soundtrack compiled together as a release yet, I just want to promote the game itself for now.

  4. Malcos!! I love it. Exudes DnB all over with them hot drum loops, but maintains an engaging structure and an evolving atmosphere.

  5. Missed that (the bass and piano). Apologies. I had a difficult time sparsing it out. But the title/name, is irrelevant, that won't score MnP points, or PRC points for that matter. Especially if people struggle to hear the source at all. Heck, I'd imagine the judge panel at OCR would be scratching their heads too. BUT, for the sake of keeping the peace, I'll just resub your tune. Fair?

  6. PRC has been around longer, so maybe it has more of a legacy? (Maybe, not that this has a legacy. It does in my book lol). I don't know, MnP was made in 2013. PRC was made in 2003. For this round, an extension would be great. Mainly because interest is starting to pick up lol. I'm glad you have an interest enough to remix it. I will look forward to your BONUS dude.

  7. The thing is, if we keep extending this, it might be 2 months before the next round. It's good to keep things moving, but it's also good to give people a chance to make a start. It is hard, because PRC and MnP are sort of competing for each other (Despite Bundeslang and HoboKa remaining buddies). I'm always down for extensions, i think it's needed if you want to get something down, but have no time (Sometimes i'm really busy, so i might end up with an entry a week before due day, or even a day), but the longer you leave it, the more time you waste. We just have to accept, that nobody will enter every round (Well except maybe me, but i'm a different breed hehe...) For what it's worth, it's best i suppose to just see how things go. Again one reason nobody is doing this round, is probably the over-the-top source i picked, which is amazing yes...but it's also an acquired taste, and not exactly melodic, so not so much remixable in the sense. Just do what you can.

  8. I'd love to return to a 2-week model. Need a few more regulars for that lol. Anyways, I believe an extension is in order...As in I will extend tomorrow night-ish if there is nothing. If I haven't updated the extension in time by then, just send a link from soundcloud or something. Thanks for your continued interest Dex edit Well you did pick the last two entries, although this one was retroactively chosen, and very much on my behalf. So I kinda fiddled the pooch there too. Well, live and learn. Guess it's just mainstream games from now on...yayyyy. Altho I am super glad that prc is seeing more attention these days. Oh shit. I just realized that I accidently dunked on this song and game. *But truth be told, I love the Streets of Rage series!! Also, I am working on a BONUS tune. It's gonna be cool. I hope. pardon all the edits

  9. I want to do something for this but I haven't had time. I might still be able to get it in, but who knows. One thing that might be contributing to the slump is how close the mnp and prc deadlines have been lately. Just speaking personally, I often put things off until the last week (or last minute), which leaves me no chance of being able to do both compos.

  10. Yeah, it's really interesting to see or hear in which many different ways you can alternate soundtracks to get certain psychoacoustic effects for a different atmosphere or how you can merge different soundtracks with the help of vital transitions (to get the impression that it was always one coherent soundtrack). Besides... Since you have mentioned "music" in this context... There's already a Youtube video which contains some of the soundtracks of the first episode of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I guess these soundtracks could be the tracks which are on the mini soundtrack CD within the Deluxe and the 1st Class Edition of the remake.

  11. ******PROJECT UPDATE #9****** And with the except of one remixer doing some polish critiques on a track, we basically have 8 tracks complete now! We're over halfway done! And with the next deadline looming at beginning of March, we are expecting to see a bunch more nearing completion or almost there! But that's not the biggest news.... As of right now, This album has been GREEN LIT FOR OCR ALBUM STATUS! Yep, that's right! This will be an official OCR release just like Arcadia Legends was! So soon, this thread will move on over to Projects soon when either @djpretzel or another forum mod can get around to doing it. Big kudos to all the hard working remixers on this project, this album is looking to be a fantastic collection of pulse-pounding music set to one of Rare's underappreciated gems!

  12. I started one with the Secret of Mana source but I didn't like how it turned out. I'll try and get a vote in, though.
