I've played the X series through X4. Actually I started X5 but got bored and never made it far. As such, it seems weird and frightening to me to play as a Mega Man who can't wall jump.

This is one of those times I wish I had played any of the mega man games.

Send them five songs at once, and force the issue. That's right, make an extra three songs that don't exist and are not needed. *nods sagely*

I tink they'll expedite it if you tell em it's for an upcoming project. or so I have heard.

Is there a desire on the part of Overclocked Remix to have lossless files for some future time, though?

Well it seems pretty close to the original, so the judges would prolly ding you for that. As far as production goes, lots of boominess going on. You need to get in there with an EQ and really chisel out those low mids. The timing seems off in places as well. Nice concept, reminds me of the beginning of Zealous Entropy. Needs some mix and editing work.

It's not because you wear animal skins?

Perhaps a weird question, but do you actually prefer mp3 for subs? Or do you mind FLAC? Makes little sense now, but perhaps a decade down the road when we have 10x the storage space. Then you have a HQ version at hand.

Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully you can figure something out. The panel seems constipated these days.

damn, you guys have practically a full lineup for vol 3 and vol 2 isn't released yet? I wouldn't mind getting in on the action, if you will have me.

You need more monitors.

I think the queue has finally ground the judges down.

I would be interested, except for the weekly thing which is too much for me poor old 'ead.

Omnisphere, Trilian, EWQL... looks like you already have some great gear. Maybe you should explain what sounds you want that your current kit can't accomplish.

I think your orchestration is very nice, it's the samples/mixing that is letting the piece down. Not sure if you can get a better mix out of what you have, or potentially try different sounds. Also, the cymbal/swells/tinkly chimes are too loud for my taste. Keep it up!

Recognize the Slate drums, but they sound weak in this context. Would like to hear a louder kick, with more click. Try some parallel compression on the drum bus to beef up the kit as well.

A certain Danny Elfman sounding track left me completely gobsmacked.

So.... contributors can get the disc as well?

Curses. You lucky punks.

Why is the lead vocal stereo widened? I don't know why people do that. Ditch the widener and add some more compression. Vox also seem quite pitchy in areas.

You people are rationalizing too much. It's fun to buy new gear, and it's healthier than a crack addition. So go support the economy.

Yeah I'm definitely hearing a lot of pumping on the mix, which I don't like at the best of times but is completely out of place in orchestral music. Ease up on your bus compressor, or preferably get rid of it.

Sounds kind of dreadful. I'm glad I just do this for a hobby.

Must. Release. Album. Urge to kill.... rising.

Maybe music making isn't for you.
