  1. Hey, sorry that I missed your thread with this request. You'll need to reset your password, as it's whatever's tied to your old account.
  2. You should manually change your password or do a password reset, but you're back in business under the old account.
  3. Opens up with the pump in full effect. Definitely liking the sound of this right off the bat. Small criticism, but the bass kick that came in at :34 felt both hollow and too loud; would have liked a thicker sound to give this more punch, but no big deal. Nice instrumentation at 1:25 and 2:00; I always enjoy hearing Undertale music using sounds I've not heard in other arrangements (given how many of them are out there). Solid sounds & textures as well as good dynamic contrast throughout to keep things fresh. I see Jivemaster's point on the melodic repetition, but like him wasn't bothered by it enough to feel this wasn't developed enough or wouldn't be a pass here. It could have been more energetic, but that's just a personal preference thing and a contrast with the energy of the source. This is a nice take on it; welcome, Deion! YES
  4. I wasn't sure if the basis of this piece were isolated channels of the original audio, but reading the sub letter, that's not the case. Even if it was, it's manipulated and presented in a way that's definitely different enough where it doesn't come off like a Standards violation to me. The lead line that came in at :14 was realy garbled-sounding, but it cleared up some when the notes changed at :29. Can't say I like the sound of it, as I felt the first 1:43 sounded less sharp than it should have, but it was still serviceable. For the arrangement, it's more about changing the textures and overall feeling of the boss theme; a relatively simple premise and it works well. The lack of an ending was a letdown, but not enough to drag down an otherwise worthy interpretation. Cool concept, Parker! YES
  5. Finally achieved 10,000,000 points yesterday. All for a good cause!

  7. Thanks for your thoughtfulness on this info and I'll answer this as best as I can. 1. Have at it. 2. We need to get those added back on the live site, and they are indeed part of the catalog. djp needs to either find the old writeups or just put in some new ones if the original ones are lost to time. 3. That's more of a question for the MusicBrainz community. We use straight quotation marks, but the style on MB doesn't matter to us. Keeping this consistant across many entries is a huge pain, but hopefully something can be scripted. 4. What DarkeSword said is correct. That said, I don't mind the "ReMoved" designation. It's not a naming convention that was official from OCR, sure, but it's a logical fan-made styling for pieces that were previously part of the catalog, and I understand the desire to track that (I have every "ReMoved" track myself). 5. The implication there is that the track in question was somehow stolen, which it wasn't. It was posted, but then we discovered that the source tune originated from a Pokemon anime score rather than the game it was referenced from, so the source tune was deemed ineligible for an OC ReMix. It could be called "ReMoved", sure. If it were a case of literally stealing material w/o attribution (which we've had before in the very early days), then it wouldn't merit an entry. 6. Have at it, and we're just honored that @CyberSkulland others give their time to ensure everything is cataloged!

  12. HEROES TRIUMPH with BadAss: Paragons & Renegades!! December 1, 2020 Contact: press@ocremix.org FAIRFAX, VA... THE WORLD NEEDS HEROES!! OverClocked ReMix today released its 75th arrangement album, BadAss: Paragons & Renegades. Rather than marshaling a fourth BadAss album centered on video game villains, BadAss album series directors David L. Puga & Pieter "Pavos" van Os have returned with a new focus, celebrating several of the most BadAss heroes of video games. The two-disc album features 18 unflinching arrangements that honor both stoic & heroic "paragons" as well as bold & audacious "renegades" in styles and genres including cinematic orchestral, piano, rock, EDM, punk, funk, and more. BadAss: Paragons & Renegades is available for free download at https://badass-pr.ocremix.org. This album was made to highlight how BadAss these video game protagonists are, and honor them with music worthy of their heroics. BadAss: Paragons & Renegades was made by fans, for fans, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the publishers or developers of the original games; all original compositions are copyright their respective owners. "I felt like the trilogy was complete and I did everything I could with the BadAss formula," shared album co-director Pieter "Pavos" van Os. "But David and I (and others) always teased each other with 'Well, one day there should be a GoodAss…' And since GoodAss isn't a great name, and since we went for a separation of genres (bombastic and/or more peaceful on disc 1, and way more aggressive and raw on disc 2), this is: Paragons & Renegades! And who knows, perhaps there will be a Paragons & Renegades: Volume 2 in the future?" 21 artists from around the world collaborated on musical tributes to many of gaming's most heroic (and some unlikely!) champions, including: Caleb (Blood) Cecil Harvey (Final Fantasy IV) Crono (Chrono Trigger) Death (Darksiders II) Doom Slayer (Doom series) Duke Nukem (Duke Nukem 3D) Earthworm Jim Eshe (Sundered) Ezio Auditore da Firenze (Assassin's Creed series) Fi (The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword) Firebrand (Gargoyle's Quest) Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher 3) Madeline (Celeste) Magus (Chrono Trigger) Nero (Devil May Cry 5) Samus Aran (Metroid series) Simon Belmont (Super Castlevania IV) ToeJam & Earl BadAss: Paragons & Renegades is OC ReMix's fourth album in the BadAss series, turning over a new leaf after the villain-centric predecessor albums of BadAss: Volumes I, II & III released in 2011, 2013, and 2016. "This is a hero-themed album & maybe we can all use a reminder to better days when defeating evil and being a hero was as simple as loading up a game and pressing a few buttons," recommends co-director David L. Puga. "It's become harder to see the better days, and even harder to see the heroism in the world. My hope is that this album leaves you energized, feeling badass, and most importantly, with some good-ass memories."
