Hey, sounds like you're at the start of an interesting process. I hope you'll find what you seek. Two things came to mind when I read your post: 1. I heard a sermon once where the speaker talked about this paradox. He suggested that when we look for happiness, we won't find it. But when we're not looking for it, happiness tends to come alongside. I thought that was interesting. 2. I also remember a TED talk in which the speaker talked about how people who turn their hobby into their work - that is to say: their job is to do what they like to do the most - are the most likely people to burn out. His suggested remedy was to go find a need in the community and to do something to meet that need. A side effect of that may well be that feeling of happiness and finding meaning. Maybe these thoughts can benefit you on your quest. :) Personally, I'm starting to see that the most important and meaningful things in life involve serving/helping other people. Most of my hobbies and interests are fairly self-oriented, so I'm trying to find things that help people other than myself. I'm doing some translation work on a voluntary basis and found that this is really appreciated by others. As a bonus effect I feel more useful and happy, knowing that what I'm doing actually has some impact somewhere (before, I always felt like I was disconnected from the world around me and that what I did, either good or bad, had no effect on my surroundings whatsoever).

First Draft sent in a PM. Not sure if it hit all the directors. PM me if I missed you and want to hear it. (edit) Also, wow at some of the real big names joining. Maybe bigger than last project. Which I've listened to at least 2 dozen times. Really nice work all around. I think this Secret of Evermore will be just as dope.

@Argle has dug up the Horace source! Welcome to the project, buddy!

Long time OCR member and album contribution veteran @Dj Mokram has officially joined the project, taking the Pyramid source. It's really nice to see this album coming together with a mixture of old skool remixers and some of the newer contributors to the site. I've been lax with my weekly updates (mainly because I'm not entirely sure what day it is half the time) but I'd like to thank everyone who's joined the album project so far as well as those who have taken the time to just check out this thread. Let's see what the coming weeks bring!

Super lazy request here but could you embed links in the free tracks so I can go right to YT and listen to them?

Sounds pretty cool! While I was looking for the source on youtube, I found some pretty sweet remixes of this same source. One guy who remixed it in 2015 actually was hired to compose for Sonic Mania

This is a really fascinating idea that could potentially be a blessing or a curse, depending on implementation. Mind elaborating on your vision and/or requirements for those tracks?

I knew it would come to this. Source coming shortly!

This source needs heavy guitars and drums
