Preview Chronopolis: http://youtu.be/TZSToGU_MOk Download Chronopolis: http://chronopolis.ocremix.org Torrent: http://bt.ocremix.org/torrents/Chronopolis_-_Music_Inspired_by_Chrono_Cross.torrent Chrono Cross's OST represents one of the formative works that influenced me to make music. I initially fell in love with the lush visuals and setting, but the music was what drew me in and kept me there. As I prepared to lead this album with months of critical listening and planning, the OST rooted me in a way that few others have. Mitsuda's distinctive combination of singable, recognizable melodies and unique instrumentation made for an unforgettable and endearing soundtrack that transports me to an island paradise, complete with ancient ruins and fantastical creatures. I can't help but be excited for this album's release. Any project usually has a few people that have been around for a while (Jorito, myself, OceansAndrew), but inevitably there's a few newcomers that also knock it out of the park (Ophanin, Earth Kid, Steven Melin). I believe that the overall quality of this album is easily the best that I've ever been involved with, and I hope that this project enables everyone who listens to be able to revisit the world of Chrono Cross yet again, nearly 20 years later. - Brad Burr (prophetik music)

OCR03899 - *YES* Phantasy Star 4 "Sakura Storm" *RESUB*
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
Nice to have something join djp's version of this theme on OCR; I'm so conditioned by Dave's arrangement, that it struck me as odd when I heard the differences in the original song compared to his take, so that just shows how long it's been since I've listened to any of this. It's been 9 years since I've heard the rejected version of this, so I supposed the old expression fits: "You've come a long way, baby." Great energy, Guilherme; just a totally different animal compared to the source tune. YES -
I'd actually argue this was mixed too hot; the volume too much for my old man ears; nothing dealbreaking, but it could have been pulled back. Other than that, lovely rubber stamp-level stuff from Rebecca once more. YES

*NO* Chrono Trigger 'The Spiritual Cathedral of Time'
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
I was waiting for the structure to change at 1:07, and it did, so props for not getting to repetitive there; you had a good change in the instrumentation, placing the strings as the lead, followed by the dropoff at 1:23 allowing a small bit of original writing before going back to the theme at 1:38 and repeating the choir at 1:46 (sans piano). IMO, when a piece is so short, it shouldn't repeat sections; for a short 2:13-long piece, having a quarter of it repeat in a cut-and-paste way was too much for me, so unlike Gario, I felt this actually was an incomplete package. At least some sort of further variation from 1:38 until the end would seal this for me, as it's a great arrangement of a short theme, but felt lazy and underdeveloped for the end. Any sort of other creative changes in melody, tone, textures, rhythms, instrumentation for the final 35 seconds would make this an easy pass. Good work so far, Federico, and good luck with the rest of the vote. NO (resubmit) -
Some questions about the submission guidelines
Liontamer replied to GSO's topic in General Discussion
Absolutely not. When you submit something to OC ReMix, OCR doesn't take any ownership of your arrangements. Definitely promote yourself anywhere and everywhere you want. -
*NO* Chrono Trigger "Chronot Trigger Edge of Time"
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
Beyond the basic adaptation to EDM, there's not much more going on in terms of interpretation; if that's definitely the direction you want to go it, that's OK, but this would need stronger, fuller-sounding production, and more dynamic contrast to complement the meaningful but still straightforward genre adaptation. Pretty generic and thin synths, so at no point was the soundscape ever filled out. The initial beats were meant to be thick, but the writing underneath the beats was both too thin and too quiet. At 1:35, the textures were super dry and hollow. At 2:05's section, the textures should have been fuller relative to what came before, but the intensity is still the same as when the beats originally came in at :58; same problem for the close at 3:59. Even when you have the textures change for the chorus at 3:33, there's no body to any of this, just the thicker beats/kicks. I agree with MW that you shouldn't be discouraged, Harold, but you should still use the WIP feedback and production discussion forums here as well as any other audio forum you visit to continue upping your game. We all have to start somewhere, and this is far from the bar here, but your arrangement did show off your attempts to personalize the sound of "Chrono Trigger". Keep at it! NO -
OCR03945 - *YES* Undertale "Guided by Hopes and Dreams"
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
I thought the main snare sound was in the uncanny valley and didn't quite click with the rest of the instrumentation (this stood out even moreso during the machine gun drums from 4:18-4:30), so the rock opera synergy wasn't there, IMO. Agreed with MW on the lyrics being hard to make out at times due to the mixing. Other than that, creative and ambitious! Rubber stamp. YES -

You don't need any technical know-how to direct an album project, just putting that out there. You just need to have the time & energy to organize it and keep things progressing.
