  1. Let me clarify. All of the source tunes (referred to in the database as "songs") are associated with the first game in their generation. http://ocremix.org/game/508/pokemon-red-version-gb/remixes http://ocremix.org/game/641/pokemon-gold-version-gbc/remixes http://ocremix.org/game/673/pokemon-ruby-version-gba/remixes http://ocremix.org/game/635/pokemon-diamond-version-nds/remixes However, the ReMixes have different game assignments depending on what info we were given from the submitting artists as to which specific game was being tributed. I understand what y'all are getting at, as far as consolidating the games. But most sites referencing these games, while acknowledging their pairs, treat them as distinct entities, so I don't see a big benefit for combining the game entries or labeling everything as one game entry per generation. I'm not the final say, but it's a franchise quirk I can live with, and it doesn't really impede the average person finding Pokemon mixes at a broad level.
  2. We knew about this issue for a while. Firefox always worked properly, but IE & Chrome did not. That said, attaching "?wmode=opaque" to the end of the embedded URL in the code fixes this issue across the board.
  3. Laws like SOPA & PIPA put creative, Fair Use sites like OC ReMix in jeopardy. The concerns of copyright holders, while important, do not justify the theft of domains, punitive action without evidence, or other abuses of power and compromise of due process. STAND TOGETHER against laws that will irreparably damage a free and open internet.

  4. It's not my call, but this seems pretty negligible. Most people would look up "Pokemon," not drill down to Pokemon Blue. If someone was specifically inspired by the DX version, their remix would be associated with LA: DX as the game, but the source tune in the database would be associated with the original LA. So we acknowledge the game being honored, but respect where the source tune originally came from as well when the same song is used the same way across a couple of different games. http://ocremix.org/game/508/pokemon-red-version-gb/remixes All of the songs are listed as the first Pokemon game in the pair, in that case, Red. For the core Pokemon games, that means all the mixes for a particular generation would be found with Red, Gold, Ruby, Diamond, and Black. Just my opinion, but that seems to cover it just fine.
  5. Each of these titles were sold separately, so I'd rather they stay separate.
  6. The mixing needs another pass to tweak some things. I thought the levels were too loud overall and the soundscape sounded a little too compressed, IMO. The lead vocals are definitely mixed too dry during the verses, they're better during the bridges, yet they're kind of buried during the later choruses. Also, during the verses, the bassline's the main instrumentation providing the Ryu theme, but it mixed so low that the source tune's end up too downplayed. Agreed with OA about the "yeah" sounding like a burp. We'll live. For the echo effect at the very end at 3:16, the vocals need to sound wetter and trailing to get that distant, fading effect that would really make it sound sweet. What's here now sounds a little rushed without that attention to detail. It's a minor thing and doesn't affect the vote much. Otherwise, this is an amazing arrangement. Even the little note changeups, which will bug some people (fuck off), are awesome and just add more personalization to the treatment here. Great lyrics, great energy, awesome performances. I agreed with all of DragonAvenger's crits (except the transitions), but this was a clear YES, IMO, that just need a fresh set of ears to take another listen and refine that mixing so everything's sounding its best. Awesomez. YES (conditional)
  7. Unpredictable Trey Cowherd Killer Instinct Killer Instinct main theme music (Mood Mix) Killer Instinct man theme music ------------------------------------------------------------- The track's mixed too loudly, and the high-end is blistering hot. That needs to be fixed first. The build was, admittedly, a bit plodding, but when things picked up at 1:16 with a more new-agey slant to it with some of the sounds, things were a little more interesting. There wasn't much going on arrangement-wise beyond using the melody verbatim with changing instrumentation, and then morphing and evolving the sounds around it. That said, what was here sounded valid enough, IMO, as far as an approach to personalizing the arrangement, though I could see how it would set people's alarm bells off. IMO, the arrangement is headed in the right direction, but there needs to be some more interpretive development of the source, either by more melodic variation or somehow incorporating other sections of the source tune. Quite an extended dropoff section to close it from 3:18 to 4:13 as the source tune disappeared and various instruments were removed. I know what you're going for with the dropoff, as it's a genre staple, but it's still pretty long for a dropoff given that it's nearly 25% of your entire track length. Cut some of the fat with this dropoff section, fix the levels, and add some new ideas to the meat of the arrangement to provide futher development and finish strong with this. Good potential here, Trey. See if you can tighten this up. NO (resubmit)
  8. Mixer Name: Ludwig Von Koopa Real Name: Mikie Email Address: User I.D.: http://ocremix.org/forums/member.php?u=44337 Name Of Game: Super Mario Bros. Name Of Arrangement: Where The Koopa Shell Am I??? Name Of Song: Underworld, Under Water, Bowser's Castle Additional Info: Super Mario Bros. was the best game in the series. I loved the music to it and decided to try again. Hopefully this time y'all will like what you hear. If not, back to the drawing board. ------------------------------------------------------------ Underground BGM - Underwater BGM - Castle BGM - I liked the arrangement for the most part, but the mixing ended up sounding pretty dreadful. There's no high end, everything is muffled and distorted,with a bit of clipping during the loudest parts as well. The Underground section had some cool chiptune usage doubled with the synth, along with some simple but good countermelodic writing at :28. The extra part added in at :57 was a good idea, but was too loud compared to the melody. The transition to the water music at 1:26 was pretty weak; not much of a flow from theme to theme; what's there sounded pretty awkward as a theme change. Lots of distortion/clipping going on once we got into this section. I'm not sure if the mixing was done like this to cover up the fact that there's little going on texturally. The percussion that's here doesn't anchor this and drive it forward, so while the soundscape is pretty crowded, the textures end up sounding pretty sparse when you break them down. The transition from Underwater to Castle BGM at 2:45 was better, since you created an actual original segue. Gotta make a better ending instead of just abruptly stopping the melodic arrangement and having the track cut off. I like your potential with arrangements, Mikie, where you have some pretty solid melodic interpretation with these sources. Improve the transition at 1:26. The sequencing was rigid the entire way, and needs to be smoothed out some so the song has more flow to it. But the production is the main problem. Take your stuff to the Workshop forum for game arrangements and ask people with much more experience how you can clean up this extremely low quality sound that ends up dragging your arrangement down. You've got to get the fundamentals of production under your belt. NO
  9. I'd have to hear it and just how heavily the sampling is tied to the overall arrangement. Seems case by case to me, just offhand.
  10. This is for posted & aspiring OC ReMixers, and I'm interested in your thoughts. 1. Why do you think so many people submit and share their remixes to OCR? 2. Why do YOU do it?
  11. Yes, but this line of thinking would involve not jumping to insane conclusions in bad faith, and we can't have that.
  12. By only having indie game composers that Rekcahdam and we knew recruited for a concept album with a specific vision, that project was elitist and wrong. I also think such an approach is bad PR for OC ReMix, because people will be angry with pitchforks that not everyone who would have wanted to be on a Zelda 25th anniversary album got to be on it, as was their God-given right. (See? It always sounds silly. )
  13. Just pointing out a couple of things, which have been laid out by other staff: * There is no inferior/superior labeling of these projects. There are only closed and open recruitment styles. Closed recruitment isn't mutually inclusive to elitism, it's just another recruitment style. We're not going to penalize project directors for working with people they know. Not every creative effort is done through open recruitment. Welcome to the real world. * Bigger picture, not every free game arrangement fan album is published through OC ReMix. And even though that would be awesome, OC ReMix not entitled to be told about everything made by people who are involved in this community. And, yet, no one has died. It's OK! * The reasoning for complaining about an album having to be open recruitment is the same reasoning to argue that we need to lower the judging bar to accept a higher percentage of submissions just because OC ReMix is popular and that somehow makes the site obligated to publish everyone's submissions. * I agree that when the Bad Dudes do their albums, that they are douches for not inviting everyone and just doing them among their group. How DARE they? DOWN WITH THE BAD DUDES! No. And they're both community albums. Your butt always hurts.
  14. I've only heard this now, but concur with the other Js. Great arrangement that really picked up in interpretation in the 2nd half, but IMO was even where it needed to the be with the approach of the first section due to the personalization involved. I agree with Palp that it needs a volume boost, so I'm just throwing that in there, but if that's not possible, I'll live. The piano realism could definitely be improved, but what's here works. Great arrangement, Hunter! YES (conditional) EDIT: Got a slight volume bump from Hunter for the track, and we're good to go! YES
  15. Hey Mike, thanks for hitting me up. I emailed you the votes to look at, so when you read those and look more into the viability of the project file, let me know what you want to do. New version is definitely improved. Thanks to all the judges for the feedback that helped Mike tweak this! And it is... GO!
  16. Got home from my drive about half an hour ago, and just had to mention that this was the best MAG EVER. Not even gonna make a list, I'm just looking forward to next year. EDIT: OH YEAH, Will/shaggy got a shot of me getting put in a full nelson by Uematsu-san! Legendary. https://plus.google.com/photos/116294723695410258054/albums/5694292961025407473/5695438215372257538?banner=pwa
  17. @Quantium,: It's a feature, not a bug.

  18. All the updates in the OP have already been applied to my collection of mixes. Once we're finished and good to go with doing these replacements, you'll see that everything has been overhauled and fixed.
  19. http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=38274 For Susie. This should help on some level. Rock!
  20. I'm posting this wedding OC ReMix list I made for our fan Christina back in May, because I saw @tehonebeast on Twitter about to play some of the community's tracks for another wedding. In this day and age, lots of cool people want video game music for a wedding, so here's a recommendation list. I've gone through all of the community's individual mixes and highlighted anything I thought could potentially work. EDIT: Updated as of OC ReMix #3941. I've also included the real names of the artists, in case you want to credit something for a program. I tried to split things up into some rough categories, but just keep in mind that your mileage may vary. Also, if you use more than 1 piece of music, keep in mind that the mixes have different volume levels. You may need someone to take a listen and make sure the levels don't jump around too much from track to track. ------------------------------------------------------------ ENTRANCE / CEREMONY - SLOW TEMPO / LIGHT LISTENING • Chrono Trigger & Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time "At the End of All Things" by Abadoss (Kenneth Edward Keyn) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01452 • EarthBound "Home Again" by Dale North https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01545 • Faxanadu "This Winding Road" by OceansAndrew (Andrew Luers), Rexy (Beverly Wooff), Brandon Strader & DragonAvenger (Deia Vengen) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02601 • Final Fantasy IV "Kind of Green" by Abadoss (Kenneth Edward Keyn), audio fidelity (Jay Yaskin), bustatunez (Wilbert Roget, II) & theultravisitor (Aaron Harmon) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01885 • Final Fantasy IV "Theme of Love for Guitar Duet" by Pot Hocket (Michael Lee) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01882 • Final Fantasy V "A Healer's Touch" by Level 99 (Stevo Bortz) & Avaris (Shaun Wallace) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02230 • Final Fantasy VII "Daydreaming Again" by Pot Hocket (Michael Lee) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01634 • Final Fantasy X "Guitar for Zanarkand" by Lazerwolph (Phillip Merriman) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR03138 • Final Fantasy XI Online "While San d'Oria Sleeps" by Kabukibear (Justin Lincoln) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01748 • Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening "Dreams of Home" by Chris | Amaterasu (Chris Woo) & waltzforluma (Aivi Tran) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02608 • Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time "Fragments of a Legend" by WillRock (William Harby) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02605 • Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages "Nayru's Love" by Dhsu (David Hsu) & GrayLightning (Gray Alexander) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01417 • Mega Man 2 "Dr. Wily's Wedding" by Jayson Litrio https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01025 • Pokémon Gold Version "Morning Sunlight" by pu_freak (Pieter van Os) & ilp0 (Ilari Nieminen) https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR03668 NOTE: Only the first 90 seconds.

  21. The timing on everything's pretty stiff and awkward, especially during the choruses. The drum timing sounded the most robotic, with the looser timing of other instruments like the guitar and organ sounding weird in combination with the drums. The vocals were pretty sprited, albeit too dry and exposed for being that upfront. I agree with DA that the way they're mixed sounds more stapled on top than meshing with the instrumentation. There's nothing horribly off-pitch, but the vocal control's definitely weak, and it's not mitigated or masked in any way via some effects. The style of the verses ended up sounding pretty repetitive, with exactly the same vocal melody, instrumentation, tempo and energy at 1:41 as at :31 with no build or dynamic changes for the second iteration. Obviously, not every song needs those differences, but the soundscape during the verses was pretty skimpy, so 1:41 was an opportunity to add to or modify the picture some and develop the arrangement further. Smaller note, but the bassline, while cool, was pretty far in the background and needed to be louder. Really cool guitar soloing at 2:57, but the drums were still robotic. Though the style change was a bit awkward, I liked the concept of the "Get a Weapon" stuff on brass for the finish, though the samples were thin and needed to be beefed up some via effects. The bell that closed this was also a pretty flimsy sample; not sure why, but there are better bell sounds out there. The arrangement's definitely creative and interpretive, but the sequencing, performances and production aren't tight at all. You have to tighten the screws up on everything to have a shot at getting this passed. No hate, but I'm not sure y'all have the chops to get this where it needs to be without redoing it. I could certainly be wrong, but I'd love to hear y'all give it a shot to see how far you could improve it. NO
  22. Source usage-wise, the track was 220.5 long and needed 110.25 seconds of source use for the usage to be dominant and for me to pass it. :03-:25 (original riffing paired with loud arranged backing lines direct from the source, smart stuff), :36-1:00, 1:56-2:04.25, 2:07-2:11, 2:12.5-2:16.75, 2:18-2:52, 3:26.5-3:38.5 = 108.5 seconds The choruses from :58-1:22 & 1:34-1:56 was loosely inspired by the source with some rhythmic similarities, but sounded too liberal (and atonal) for me to count as source usage from Cornelia Castle. If I'm missing something else obvious there, like another theme reference or an upgraded soundtrack version that used this writing (PlayStation, WonderSwan, etc), please let me know. Otherwise, it's close, but not overtly using the source material quite enough, from what I can tell. My opinion on the previous version was: Flippant, yes. Unfortunately, that criticism still stands with this version. And let me make it clear, you didn't commit sacrilege for "daring" to modify the mood of the source tune. I always HATE when people complain about that. But what's in place with the melody is atonal and ends up clashing with your backing writing too drastically, and that ended up killing this off. The first bars of the verse were great from :36 to :47, then everything after was atonal when paired with the backing, ESPECIALLY the choruses from 1:00-1:19 & 1:34-1:53. Notes matter. Modify your leads or your backing instrumentation, but one of 'em needs to be tweaked for this to make sense musically. Brief but baller stuff from 1:56-2:06. The energy's good and the performances are pretty solid. It's really too bad all these atonal sections were there when the core of the arrangement and performance was sweet. No hate Justin, it's a good track in a vacuum, and it takes nothing away from your skills, but the clashing sections are too extensive to let slide. If you want to touch this up, great, but either way I look forward to hearing more from you. NO (refine/resubmit)
  23. No hate, but OA and DA are high as kites to be YESing this, especially given some of the sections with barebones textures and corny default electrosynths. C'mon guys, for real? Y'all are too nice. There are times, CJ, where you have some really cool instrumental combinations going on, like the harpsichord-style stuff and the intro ideas until :55. But there are other times where you have a lot of bland FL Studio default synths exposed with next to no modifications that stick out like a sore thumb. Somewhat generic sounds to open things up, but some cool effects, as well as the vox samples being used to nice effect to create some cool textures. Pretty generic production for the electrosynths brought in at :55, with some stuttered drums that were cool, albeit rigidly sequenced. Oh crap, super-bland FL Studio default gated synth at 1:45, along with the vanilla, generic synth lead at 2:03 and 3:09. Pretty lonely percussion stuff at 2:20. Not sure why those basic sounds were so prominent and the textures were so flimsy, when 2:46's section was markedly better by comparison (albeit not great). :55's section sounded so much more creative and cohesive by comparison as well. I messed with FL Studio for a couple of hours back in 2002, and I heard a ton of the default sounds and effects used in this piece, which just sounds way too amateur and beginner-ish. That's not to say that, because I recognize the sounds, you're punished for it, but these default synths are very raw like Palpable said, and need to be refined, especially for the second half. They generally don't work well without further effort put into refining them. There's not enough effort given to polishing the sounds up here and fleshing out these textures, and it just kills the arrangement ideas dead. I hate to gloss over the arrangement, because the source tune is clearly worked with, but the sounds are generally weak enough to make that discussion unnecessary. So, in short, your arrangement has potential, so improve these currently lame areas: the lead and gating effects at 1:45, the lead at 2:03, the plain percussion at 2:20, and the lead at 3:09. Sorry, CJ. I loved that Puggsy resubmission, so I know you can take your music to a much higher level. Step up the quality and consistantcy of your submissions, you can definitely get there! NO
