I won't play a song unless I have the proper artist, title, album & copyright info for it, because I don't want to ever miscredit anything. It's also station policy to have all that information available. If someone managed to find out the relevant info for it, I could play it.

You better be, Henry! [mean face] Hahaha. But yeah, try and be there if you can. Considering I've been focusing extra attention on my classes, I haven't been around all week, so I haven't laid out too many things for tomorrow night. I'll be working on getting everything ready, but for now, I'll quickly point out what I'm planning to go with so far. 1. FFmusicDJ will be this week's interview, so check him out on the air addressing a host of topics and also see what Haroon's got cooking, including his latest remix of original music, Delerium f/Sarah McLachlan - "Silence (Hap Club Mix)". 2. Just to play it properly after last week's metaphorical burp, I'll be playing the dope original track once again from The Black Lodge, "Summer '99". 3. Considering OverCoat's disdain for Nobuo Uematsu, he's nonetheless got an interesting take on a Final Fantasy 6 track, and it's not one of the over-remixed ones either. Check out "The People of the Ruined World". 4. Destiny's recent Chrono Cross collab with zyko "Dragon's Prayer: The Blackened Desire" is her first remix available on VGMix2... 5. ...We'll be checking that out, as well as the revised version of Helen's original vocal track "Fly (Your Heart Is Young)". 6. For those of you who enjoyed Shariq calling in last Saturday, DarkeSword will allow us to check out an original Shakesperian theatrical piece that also happens to be his first-ever paid composition (*cough* $5). 7. Courtesy of JigginJonT's request, Pixelated serves up some somber, explicit Zelda 2 prose-style action with "Crying Alone in the Darkness". 8. It's not an easy task to get a remix of yours into the Stuff of Legends on VGMix. Only 2 have managed to get there and STAY there. kLuTz has managed to do just that, and we'll be taking a listen to his new Final Fantasy 1 town theme remix "Simple Joys". It's all good. Was there ever any doubt? Be sure to check everything out Saturday night, 10 PM - 12 AM EST. The link's in my sig.

Yo yo, peoples. After eating some delicious sushi like a gaijin American pig-dog and drinking some el33t Goya peach nectar (oh, that shit is GOOD), it's time to run down what we played tonight. I gotta thank Species for tonight's show recording, assuming everything went down alright, since he did have to go to sleep while it was recording. Thanks to SgtRama for the brand new bumper, which I luckily saw just before I left for the studio. I was able to get that into tonight's show for the INSTANT GRATIFICATION, so thanks again to Doug for the hookup. We certainly have a great amount of bumpers for the show, and I will host them all at some point. We're at 17 bumpers. Maybe the magic number is 20. Thanks to all the new people who came by to check out the show today on this special weekday edition of the show. A lot of them, including Carbunk1e, were from AnimeRemix, or they were Suzumebachi's friends, and it's good to have fresh faces checking it out. Over the course of the night, we must have had around 35 different people in and out of the chat, so it was really productive, despite the late time. Check out what everyone was yakkin' about with the VG Frequency AIM chat transcript. Hopefully everyone enjoyed themselves and the show, and I hope many of you can turn out for next Saturday's show, which will be the last before Thanksgiving. No show during the holiday. I'm eating turkey. The playlist below isn't quite turkey, but it's certainly satisfying nonetheless: Larry Oji - WMRE (Emory University Student Radio; Atlanta, GA) "VG Frequency" - Tuesday, November 18, 2003 - 12:10 - 2:05 AM EST 1.

Just to let everyone know what's to be expected, here's how I've basically laid out tonight's show. Though it's late for a weekday, I hope I see a good amount of people around tonight. Some things might move around, but this is the preview: SuperGreenX - Unnamed WIP [http://www.mp3.com/supergreenx] Star Salzman - VG Frequency "Star Egotism" Bumper L Spiro - Donkey Kong Country 2 "Konkluded Epik" [VGMix2 #338] Jared Hudson - "G.H.O.S.T.

First things first, thanks to Species for the show recording. The Wingless, I know, is very intent on hearing Hindu Bob again, and everyone enjoyed the hijinx while it lasted, so be out the lookout for the archive in the near future. Thanks to the peeps who called and listened. I gotta apologize for the show cutting out for everyone at Midnight when there were supposed to be another 2 hours, but Emory decided that Midnight would be a good time to reset the network. When they do that, someone has to manually reset WMRE's webstream feed, and they don't do that until the weekday. I'm working on changing stuff now that I've gotten pissed enough to join the tech department. To get the second half's stuff played like it was supposed to be, I'm doing another show tonight/late-night from 12 - 2 AM. I know that's not convenient for a lot of people, so apologies, but I'd like to get everything done on the air as I promised so I can have a clean slate for next week. Here's Saturday's chat transcript. And here's Saturday's playlist: Larry Oji - WMRE (Emory University Student Radio; Atlanta, GA) "VG Frequency" - Saturday, November 15, 2003 - 10:15 PM - 12:05 AM EST 1. Yuzo Koshiro - "Player Select" [streets of Rage OST] 2. Rayza f/Liontamer - VG Frequency "Number One Host" Bumper 3. Nobuo Uematsu - "Blue Fields" [Final Fantasy VIII OST] 4. Forgive the bad memory, but at various points, The Wingless, KyleJCrb & DarkeSword all called in and were all VERY funny; highlights: DarkeSword reveals the sordid beginnings of life as a musical prositute, with his younger brother as the pimp; KyleJCrb ousts Larry and stages a takeover of the show; For the less cultured and/or perverted among us, The Wingless explains the meaning of bukkake 5. DarkeSword - "Tempest - Act I, Scene I" [http://www.darkesword.com] 6. GrayLightning - Star Ocean "Space Travel" [OC ReMix to-be-posted] 7. Gecko Yamori - Last Ninja "8-Bit Kamikaze" [OC ReMix #1072] 8. Daniel Baranowsky - Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time "Awakened Fears of the Gerudo" [VGMix2 #310] 9.

The Pancake Chef - Final Fantasy 6 "La Locura Del Kefka" [OC ReMix #426] 23. run.dll - Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death "Megacity Megasound" [VGMix2 #84] 24. Yasunori Mitsuda - "Viper Manor" [Chrono Cross OST]

I'll go for The Pancake Chef since he could use some more pimpage. Thanks yo. Hahaha, definitely go for a bumper, bro. Earn immortality!

Oh, I'll give you something to die about, you bastard! [shakes fist] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So it's gonna be a 3 hour show this Saturday. I have no problem playing whatever I have, but I'm definitely looking for requests to fill this 3 hours show. Keep your suggestion to only 1 song, to maximize how many peeps can get their requests in, and get your choice to me on the thread (WITH linkage) by Saturday early afternoon. If you PM me or IM me, that's fine, but I may get that stuff lost in the shuffle. MP3.com is dumping all of its current content December 2nd, which is why it's very important to check out VG Frequency's MP3.com station, "VG Frequency: Originals" to check out the largest selection of original tracks by OC ReMixers before the station's gone forever. Be sure to bookmark it and use the 2 weeks to sample as much music as you can, before the chance is gone. Tracks that are confirmed for Saturday are 1) rundll's Judge Dredd VGMix "Megacity Megasound" at Rayza's request 2) A jazz/big band original by Jaroban of Interdit and SMB Medley fame, "Shades of Change" 3) Jared Hudson's recently complete menu music for the Half-Life mod G.H.O.S.T. Ops, "G.H.O.S.T. Ops Theme" 4) Beatdrop's newest track from his forthcoming album Final Energy, "danger/poison" 5) The newest VGMix from Dan Baranowsky, "Awakened Fears of the Gerudo" 6) A unique take on SMW's Overworld BGM on VGMix, B1itz Lunar's "Donut Grooves" 7) The lastest OC ReMix by the hugely popular Billy Christiansen, i.e. Symphonic Chronicles, "It's About Time" Wave Theory's 14-minute "Breakbeat Demo Mix" from earlier this year 9) A classic original track by The Black Lodge, "Summer '99" 10) We'll also be sneaking in Star Salzman's creative original "Fat Dong", and trust me, that song's playling at some ludicrously late time after the show recording is over The show goes from 10 PM - 1 AM EST for the recording of about 3 hours, then I'm staying until at least 2 AM to hang out with whoever else is around in the VG Frequency AIM chat room and play extra tracks. This is definitely the best time to pimp the show out to other people you know, so please encourage others to check it out this week. See everybody tomorrow.

Decent effort, Sharky! ... Wait, wrong forum... I've had this one since IMC:LE, so I'm glad to see that it made it here fairly quickly. If you're down with Mario Kart, don't pass this one up at all. DS provides excellent sax work as usual, so sit back and chill with this one.

Because I'm the man, I managed to pick up this month's WMRE Show Spotlight. Check it out here. The links at the bottom need to be fixed to actually work, but the webmaster just forgot to make them not add to the root of the WMRE URL. But they're there anyway, and they'll be fixed up soon. Roam around the site to check out some of the other shows as well. Don't know why we have a purple/pink site scheme when our school colors are blue & gold, but no one said life ever made sense. With the show spotlight up now, I hope some of the people/lurkers here on the OCR boards will finally feel enough incentive to check the show out. I'm also gonna be joining the tech department in an effort with our tech director to get something done about changing our stream. Apparently, it's more difficult than it sounds. Nothing will happen immediately, but we'll see what we can do. Make sure to pimp VG Frequency at the WMRE website guestbook, and be sure to pimp your own URL as well. I can't host all my shows at once (though I don't have a problem with that right now), but I will have some text interviews up fairly soon depending on who I get permission from. Although more stuff will be coming soon, feedback on what else I can add to my show's webpage is appreciated.

First off, I wanna thank Species for his recording as usual. It'll be out whenever he has a chance to look over the recording and master it, but big props to Species for hooking me up every week. Be on the lookout for it. Thanks of course to everyone who contributed mixes & requests. This was a very diverse mix of tracks. Last week's show went absolutely great, but this one went even smoother, and I really had a good time again. I really appreciated everyone tuning in, and thanks a lot to all the peeps who pimped the hell out of the show to get a whole bunch of new people this week. Not everyone decided to stay the whole time, but I'll be looking for the new people over the next few days to thank them for stopping by and checking my lil' radio show out. We're bigger & better every week, so keep tuning in! To check out what the peeps were saying about all the stuff on this week's episode, check out this week's chat transcript courtesy of OverCoat (¡Olé!). Let's get to meat of the show.

Panzer Dragoon Azel & Orta requests DENIED! For now, there's no scheduled interview tonight. If you want your 15 minutes though, feel free to leave me a message sometime before 5 PM EST while I'm asleep. No interview's just as well, because there's tons of st00f in store and it's gotta fit within 2 hours. Along with the already featured tracks from Dan Baranowsky, GrayLightning and bLiNd (it's a secret!), we've got remixes from Shadow, SuperGreenX & MC, a MegaMan II submission from the aspiring BliziHiZaKe, old school flavor from Mellogear, Nate Cloud, SkyHigh, Spram & Injury, and fresh cuts with the lastest two OC ReMixes from Trace Kyshad & silent. OverCoat also adds a little extra "sabor" to the mix with a brand new bumper debuting tonight! You should already know the drill: http://www.emory.edu/WMRE/wmre.ram is the link for the webstream, and you need RealPlayer [thumbs down] or RealAlternative [thumbs up] to check it out. The AIM chat room is "VG Frequency" as always. Invite yourself in, or hit me up with an IM at Liontamer87, to hang out with us OC remixers & fans while we all act strangely! 10 PM EST...that's soon.

He's just sayin' that cuz he's gonna be featured! Sure, yo. Gimme any particular suggestions you have, or hook me up with linkage to an MP3 you'd prefer. And with the passing of October, we are reunited with Red Omen. Good to have you back, bro. Let the peeps know how the marching band stuff turned out.

Ah yes. Let's not forget that the WMRE webstream is too spotty to record the show at a higher bitrate. RealPlayer.... Waking up this evening/early morning has been very productive. I got to check out the second half of KyleJCrb's radio show "Nitro Game Injection", and two OCR submissions that I've been anticipating very, very highly finally made it up in "Dezoris Winter" & "Belmont Lounge". To celebrate these quality tracks finally receiving the Pretzel seal of approval, they'll be featured next Saturday on VG Frequency, along with the other side of the coin in GrayLightning's & Dan Baranowsky's first VGMix submissions "Schala: Memories Lost in Time 2" and "The Galaxy is at Peace". Along with Dan's Super Metroid mix being on OCR as well, Gray's Chrono Trigger mix is a revisitation of his older OC mix "Memories Lost in Time". Not to be outdone, bLiNd has just completed his latest track for the upcoming album from KFSS Studios, Project Majestic Mix Trance, and you'll be getting the exclusive hookup this Saturday in this 3rd part of the PMM Trance preview. For those of you who've been following bLiNd's progress intently, get ready to revist an old favorite. To allow more time for music, I'll be sticking to only one interview from now on, but if you have any requests (Larry, play my st00f!) or wanna come on the air for an interview (Larry, I like the sound of my own voice!), feel free to lemme know, with a bias towards anyone who hasn't had the opportunity to give an interview yet. More stuff will be previewed later in the week, but for now, be sure to pick up the available episodes up from my webspace featuring interviews with KyleJCrb [#1], DCT/Succubus/Vigilante [#7], The Wingless/Dj Abjurator [#8] & JigginJonT/Jared Hudson [#9]. There's also the very excellent MP3.com station available at http://www.mp3.com/stations/vgfrequency that focuses on remixer originals, so be sure to bookmark that.

I'm not gonna review this one with the heavy critique style of VGMix. Larry: "Ah, the very familiar Silent Zone theme!" Gray: [shakes head] I remember the controversy the older version of this song had, and I honestly felt the judges had validity in asking for a resubmission. Despite the heated argument by both supporters and detractors of the track's rejection, I'm really glad GL decided to take another look at this mix and apply his significant skills even further to come out with this updated submission. The track's far more impressive (the increased choir emphasis creates a significantly fuller feel, as well as the low-key, yet ever-present bassline), more indicative of Gray's mixing talents and a genuine keeper for me this time. I'm also glad that GL himself feels more strongly for the track now that he's gone through the added effort of reworking it, instead of simply feeling that it would now make it through the judges' panel. And the work's really paid off with some well-deserved straight-to-postage action (I told you, Gray )! A quality revision, to say the very, very least. Congratulations on the hard work, Gray! You da man!

Hmmm...I dunno, Edge. The archives are all done in 24kbps/22khz/mono format to go for a smaller file size with the download, so I'm not sure if anyone would be interested in getting a CD of the shows if the bitrate isn't high. If you would be interested nonetheless, I may seriously do something like that. For the upcoming Homestarrunner.com interview, I'm definitely going to see what we can do at WMRE (and with any listeners, as well) with recording that show in at least a 128kbps bitrate. Thanks for the interest, Edge. You should hang out in the AIM chat room if you wanna check out the show live next week.

The MP3 archive is up and ready for download at my webspace courtesy of Species 8472. Check out the tracklist at the bottom of page 14, and get show #9, as well as other episodes, at my webspace: https://webdrive.service.emory.edu/users/loji/. For those who want to get right to the interviews, you can listen in to JigginJonT's interview at 17 minutes & Jared Hudson's interview at 76 minutes. Thanks again to everyone who check it out. Questions & comments are appreciated. Keep it with VG Frequency next Saturday, peeps.

As usual, big, big thanks to everyone who tuned in, and Species for hooking us up with the MP3 archive, which turned out very well tonight. Look for it fairly soon, perhaps even tomorrow. Thanks to OverCoat (sans Seattle), The Coop & The Wingless for hooking me up with the fresh cuts this week as well. Come in early, Blak_Omen, so you don't miss anything! I'll definitely take your chat transcript tomorrow, Coop, to see if I need to add anything to the one I snagged. I miss "the whistles go WHOO" too. Thanks also to JigginJonT & Jared Hudson for providing some high quality interviews. The time I spent prepping for 'em, despite me feeling very beat today, was definitely well worth it, and I appreciate you guys calling in and making bumpers! Since I knew I'd just have 2 hours tonight, I was able to prepare a lot better for the time limit, and had zero problems whatsoever, despite me not really having time to chill around in the chat room. I'm gonna have to read it over it later and see what was goin' on. Join me in vicariously experiencing the non-sensicalness of VG Frequency's weekly chat room session by checking out this week's chat transcript! With the surprising quickness tonight, here's this week's tracklist: Larry Oji - WMRE (Emory University Student Radio; Atlanta, GA) "VG Frequency" - Saturday, November 1, 2003 - 10 PM - 12 AM EST 1. John Pee - "Piano Skill Level 1" [Treasure Hunter G OST] 2. John Pee - "Piano Skill Level 2" [Treasure Hunter G OST] 3. John Pee - "Piano Skill Level 3" [Treasure Hunter G OST] 4. John Pee - "Piano Skill Level 4" [Treasure Hunter G OST] 5. Jared Hudson - VG Frequency "Break Loose" Bumper 6. John Pee - "Just Like the Mountain, He Will Not Move" [Treasure Hunter G OST] 7.

::Slips liontamer a $20:: Bling Bling! I used Galen's $20 to buy some booze for Halloween, so clearly we both win. Thanks to Species, the collection of episodes for VG Frequency is complete with episodes #1, #7 & #8 now available for download, including his pure genius in providing episode #7 with the full version of DarkeSword's Dream Pipe and saving it from cutting off. RealAlternative (for people that want to watch my radio show but hate RealPlayer) and QuickTime Alternative are also still available from my webspace as well, so head over there to download everything you're looking for: https://webdrive.service.emory.edu/users/loji/ For anyone that's kept all the episodes of my show, I have a small request to make. Currently in the Original Artist info in the ID3v2 tags, all the episodes say "Larry Oji (Liontamer)". In order to better run-down the guest callers and interviews we've had from the OCR community on the show so far, I encourage you to make sure the Original Artist sections for each episode have the following cut-and-pasted into the ID3v2 tags: #1: Liontamer f/KyleJCrb #2: Liontamer f/Vigilante & Star Salzman #3: Liontamer f/Juverna (click/oops), Beatdrop, DCT, Dragonking, Star Salzman, SuperGreenX, McNoods & Vigilante #3.5: Liontamer f/DarkeSword #4: Liontamer f/Juverna, Vigilante, DarkeSword & bLiNd #5: Liontamer f/Adhesive_B0y #6 (BR): Liontamer #6: Liontamer f/KyleJCrb & Beatdrop #7: Liontamer f/DCT, Succubus & Vigilante #8: Liontamer f/The Wingless & Dj Abjurator The tracks from reelmojo's People's Remix Challenge will be featured tonight along with stuff by JigginJonT, Jared Hudson & Mark Vera. Jared and Jon T may call in tonight for interviews, but that's not set in stone. Since I haven't been around much to take requests this week, I'll be loading up tonight with plenty of random goodness. In any case, see you tonight folks.

Hahaha. The mysteries that arise when you leave in the middle of the show! Out of the 5 songs I played from Dj Abjurator, his 3 originals were playing in the background while I conducted my interview with him. Galen's Rockman & Forte mix was before the interview and his new Doom mix was after it. "Empath" was looping non-stop from The Wingless's site while I interviewed him. Don't worry about Wingless, Species. He's not uppity. The sarcasm's just dripping out of his urethra!

Thanks to everyone who tuned in this past weekend, and thanks again to Dj Abjurator & The Wingless for providing quality interviews. The show was hectic as hell for me, since I was (and will be from now on) crammed into a two-hour time limit and didn't have as much freedom to just waste time and blab around like usual. Plus, we're now implementing lame commercials at WMRE to pay the bills. It was still a quality show, but I had to cut a few things from this week's show in order to fit within my 2 hours. Thus, we'll be having Mark Vera's latest original, JigginJonT's new bumper and his recent FF6 remix, as well as Wave Theory & FF: The Black Mages all reserved for next week's show. I know Jon T. was at a track meet on Saturday, so holding his stuff until next week will at least give him a chance to hear it over the air. In addition to the tracks being held over until next week, we'll be featuring the entries of first edition of the reelmojo-created People's Remix Competition, and Jared Hudson's track for the Siggraph 2003 convention, "Kromm the Headhunter". As it relates to the chat room on AIM, I gotta point out that it's not hard to find it. Just invite yourself to the chat room name "VG Frequency" and that's all you need to do. It's the same room name every week, and it'll never be any different. I'll invite you myself if I see you, but it's not a 100% guarantee I'll see you if you sign on late while I'm underway with the show. Also, I encourage you to bookmark the show's webstream URL (which is in my sig) in your media player of choice to save yourself the hassle of asking me/the chat for it every week. And get RealAlternative while you can if you hate RealPlayer. It's still at my webspace: https://webdrive.service.emory.edu/users/loji Pick up the AIM chat transcript for this week's show and see what all the listeners were yakking about. Probably something adult in nature. Delaying no further, here's this week's tracklist: Larry Oji - WMRE (Emory University Student Radio; Atlanta, GA) "VG Frequency" - Saturday, October 25, 2003 - 10:05 PM - 12:05 AM EST 1.

Damn right. Hahaha. I haven't seen this much fawning since Bambi. For those among you that don't have/want RealPlayer, download the lastest version of RealAlternative, which features inprovements to Media Player Classic, and allows you to check out all Real filetypes, including VG Frequency's webstream. Don't forget to snag the latest version of QuickTime Alternative as well from me if you don't like QuickTime Player. We've got a great show this week with new stuff from FFmusic Dj, Beatdrop, The Wingless, Mark Vera, DarkeSword, Daniel Baranowsky & Dj Abjurator, along with SeattleOverCoat, JigginJonT & Wave Theory (if I have time there). Unknown's newly posted Dragon Warrior remix, "Kingdom Come" is also gonna be featured. (Nice work, Ty!) Dj Abjurator & The Wingless will be calling in this week for interviews, so be sure to check 'em out. What j00 waiting for? If you haven't been listening to this show, ya need to start. For those of you who haven't been following it, reelmojo's started The People's Remix Competition. For the first contest, the contestants remixed Doom's theme for E1M9, "Hiding the Secrets", with some very impressive results. Once we have a winner, we'll be spotlighting the PRC1 submissions next week, though we will have Dj Abjurator's entry "DbD (Death by Distortion)" tonight. I'd love to do them this week, but we're already full, and besides, we have no winner yet. Check the thread out, listen to all the entries, and PM reelmojo with your choice as the winner. It's for the people. I don't even know if I have time for everything, because I will be cutting it very close to 2 hours. Aside from the interviews, there's not gonna be much time for talk, so I'll be gabbing a lot less tonight. See you at 10.

You should name it Sabinuano. Sabin + guano ???

I still have never heard him live. Dope dope. "Anthem" will be on this coming Saturday, along with the new bumper. I'll try and hold off on it as long as I can, to give you the best chance to possibly get back and hear everything over the air. You might be too spent from the meet in Fresno, so I'd personally just get boozed up and pass out, but if you wanna try and catch the tail end of the show, go for it! Me and the Wingless were debating last week as pimps over the practicality and validity of flying hoes across the country with priceline.com. That doesn't really have to do with anything directly, but if you ponied up the dough, Jon, and flew to ATL, I could get you a ticket to Ben Folds and provide you with quality housing. Too bad time and money don't grow on trees. I'm sure Ben Folds would be very impressed with Live from the Yggdrasil.

"Will make radio bumper for food or airplay..." Sweet! Some Ben Folds style. This is tight. Did you sample a track or do something yourself? Let me know, cuz I'm definitely interested in the specifics. It's not amateurish at all, Jon. You artists, always downplaying the talent. This'll definitely be leading into your track for next Saturday. The only question is, what track do you want me to play, Jon? It's your choice yo. BTW, Jon, Ben Folds is coming to play at Emory on November 4th. Check out the article from this past Tuesday.
