  1. Artist handles are updated, some source tune titles are corrected for the OST's official iTunes US release, artist notes are bundled in, updated iTunes-compatible tagging, higher quality MP3 encodings, and tagged FLACs instead of untagged WAVs!
  2. And 12 hours later for me, I made the drive back. MAGFest, good times as always!
  3. Here I be! I be here! (At 8.5) Wish you we're here, but let's do this again in January!
  4. For a 2:50-long piece, I needed at least 85 seconds of overt source usage for the VGM to be dominant. 15.5-:28, :33.75-:50, 1:27.25-1:44, 1:58-2:12, 2:25-2:38 = 72.5 seconds The piano chords used at the opening and during the sax soloing also played the Ice Man progression, only simplified, but I made the connection there as well, so I'm fine with the source usage. That shuddering vibrato will definitely make some other listeners shudder. It didn't bother me... a ton, but it'll definitely rub some people the wrong way. Keep in mind, the context is that he's a washed up lounge singer. With awfully cheesy lyrics to boot. I'll also join in the chorus of people saying the ice cube SFX was too much for too long, but it didn't affect my vote either. Unexpected and interesting approach going the comedic lounge route. Props for a fun curveball, Thad! YES
  5. What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix.

  7. If it's arranging music written for games, then yes. If not, then no. We're a video game music site, not a "Fly Me to the Moon" arrangement site. We've had the Tetris/Frogger folk music exceptions, yes, but allowing mainstream music arrangements at this stage isn't what we're about, no matter how awesome the execution is.
  8. Yep, we'll have to get around to that, but at some point, that'll get updated. We don't have many mixes from the new generation of systems, so this isn't a priority for the moment.
  9. There's definitely a large Cali contingent out West, but they don't organize anything.
  10. When I lived in DMV, you couldn't help but bump into OCR people. In Atlanta, I've hung out with Tweex and his wife at a Distant Worlds concert that I got us tickets for. I've also tried to meetup with urdailywater, but he's not been available. Sometime I need to arrange a Georgia meetup, maybe around Video Games Live in October. I'd love to meet Sir Jordanius, for instance.
  11. I just need to get the private YouTubes staged so that all of the patrons get a peek at the next set of soon-to-be-posted ReMixes. Everything should go out either late tonight or likely tomorrow, along with another free OC Records album download.
  12. Gamer's Rhapsody Sat. November 15 - Sun.

We're proud to present Emily Reese from MPR's Top Score as our first guest of honor. Our newest guests of honor have been announced. Please welcome Disasterpeace and OC ReMix!"

  13. Sorry for not voting on it to help close it out. The balance and tone of everything was substantially improved, and even the really weak transition from before was redone to NOT break the flow of the piece. There were still some minor issues like the drum shots sounding too similar/machine-gun-ish in intensity for some periods of time, but the sum total of the changes definitely got this where it needed to be. Major props on your persistence, Anthony! That kind of determination is what will make you a cut above the rest. YES
