If you want to learn reaper, the best tutorial is, bar none, Kenny Gioia's Reaper 4 Explained at Groove3. They're having a half off sale for the month of Dec so I strongly recommend it if you want to quickly become a competent Reaper user. You'll get more out of it than any YouTube video or the manual. Reaper is capable of A LOT, but it's not always obvious.

Yes, because the kids of the 80s and 90s have grown up. There's an entire generation of adults who loves video game music.

I think the troll tipped its hand with the second post. It's too silly to be believable.

:lol: See guys, all you have to do is follow PenguinLover's teachings and find people who are passionate. Better get started on the next DKC3 album.

Yeah, that's not elitist at all. Nice job on the trolling.

1-3 weeks, not necessarily working every day. I don't rush a song. It's done when it's done.

Congrats! Your days of making music are over.

OCR is going to get all sullen now and play its music too loud.

Careful with Reaper, it's a great DAW but it doesn't come with any instruments. Well there's a crappy synth and barebones sampler. So Reaper won't set you back much, but you'll need some kind of instrument package to get ya going.

oh my god, I SO want to contribute to this. I have had DK64 on my radar for years as remixing potential. There are ZERO Donkey Kong 64 remixes on this site, inexplicably.

The Corridors of Time demo gave me a partial boner. Just wanted to share that.

It takes like 4-5 months to get on the panel. If you look at the time something is posted, it's like a year or more after being submitted.

I wanted to write a Christmas tune, but honestly I can't get into it with this ridiculous warm weather we've been having.

Excellent triphop mix. I'm a sucker for 'tron sounds.

Very nice choon, very chill. Live flute makes an excellent touch.

thx for the release guys, I'll seed this on my work PC for as long as the network admin lets me.

This is embarrassing to admit, but I always loved this song from the game but never knew the name of it. Oh, and this mix rocks.

I can't stop watching this. It's hypnotic. I need to allocate my time better.

A couple of things really bother me. There's only one rhythm guitar take panned rightward. You gotta doubletrack it. Guitar tone is pretty brittle sounding. Come to think of it, sounds like an amp without a cab. Snare sounds pretty awful, to be honest. You need a new sound entirely. Timing seems pretty loose in sections.

What kind of bribes do you prefer to receive? I'm asking for a friend.

Or he could just ease up on the threshold....

Guitar sounds out of time with the drums, pretty noticeable in some spots.

I would totally buy that.

honestly, this almost reminds me of an arranger keyboard demo, particularly the horns. The cheesy 808 side stick doesn't jibe with the rest of the track. I would say swap it out for a better sound. Other than, pretty slick work.
