OCR04203 - *YES* Final Fantasy IX "Be Still, My Wicked Heart"
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
I'd say this was pretty exposed orchestration that gets by on OCR but obviously is in the uncanny valley, with the early string sustains being the big offender. That said, this was a cohesively presented medley, and the production was solid enough. Some light pops/deformations around 3:55-3:57, but those weren't a big deal. I wouldn't treat 1:35, 1:38, 1:49, and some other spots as pops; those seemed to be instrumental sounds. In any case, those minor issues didn't prompt me to say we should hold this back. YES -

OC ReMix presents Golden Sun: A World Reignited! June 30, 2020 Contact: press@ocremix.org FAIRFAX, VA... OverClocked ReMix today released its 74th free community arrangement album, Golden Sun: A World Reignited. Featuring 37 tracks from 42 musicians, A World Reignited pays tribute to Nintendo's classic Game Boy Advance RPGs Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and is led by first-time director Logan "TSori" Thomas. The album is available for free download at https://reignited.ocremix.org. A World Reignited assembles a large lineup of musicians interpreting Motoi Sakuraba's scores in a variety of styles across 2 1/2 hours of creative arrangements. A World Reignited was made by fans, for fans, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Camelot or Nintendo; all images, characters, and original compositions are copyright their respective owners. With nearly 10 long years gone by since the last release from the Golden Sun franchise, A World Reignited allows fans of the series the opportunity to revisit and rekindle their memories exploring the world of Weyard through music with a heavy emphasis on live instruments. "This story of discovery, exotic locales, forgotten histories, hidden motivations, heroism, and desperation was beautifully embodied in Motoi Sakuraba's incredible soundtrack," noted album director Logan Thomas in appealing to the original games. "Take a new journey from the slopes of Mount Aleph to the shores of the Karagol Sea, from the depths of Madra Catacombs to the tops of the monolithic elemental lighthouses." The album's artwork -- a beautiful collage of the lighthouses of both GBA titles -- was designed by French illustrator Mikaël "Orioto" Aguirre, already well-known for his lush landscapes inspired by the Golden Sun series as well as other gaming classics. "Every single person involved went above and beyond what was expected," Thomas added. "The quality of this album and the rapidity with which it has been completed is a direct result of the talent and unyielding dedication of everyone involved."

Preview Golden Sun: A World Reignited: https://youtu.be/UaCwTIiuQ9A Download Golden Sun: A World Reignited: https://reignited.ocremix.org Torrent: http://bt.ocremix.org/torrents/Golden_Sun_-_A_World_Reignited.torrent I had the privilege of making my debut as ReMixer on the Arcadia Legends album in December 2018. I was so excited when the album was released that I immediately started thinking about what I could do next. I bounced around the forums for a couple weeks looking for someone who might need a trumpet player, but didn't really find anything. So, I decided I would try to pull together a new ReMix on my own, and what better place to start than my favorite game, Golden Sun. As I was beginning to mull over ideas for the many MANY tracks I thought should be ReMixed, there was a conversation in the Discord chat suggesting a Golden Sun album. A few of us responded that we'd love to see it, but there was also some skepticism that there'd be enough interest to make it happen. I ended up spending some time looking at old posts on the request forums, and what I realized was that if I wanted to see it happen, I was going to have to be the one to lead it! So It began. I spent three hours on the phone with my brother (also a big GS fan) picking a tracklist for the album. I went through every post anyone had ever made about Golden Sun on OCR. Specifically, I looked at both of the previous attempts at a Golden Sun project. I wanted to understand what their approaches had been. What had they done right? What did I think needed to be done differently? Once I had come up with a management plan that I believed would help avoid the pitfalls of the past and complete an album inside of a year, I posted the project thread in the forum, and started recruiting! This is where I stop being the main character in this story. Over the following months, our album became a collaborative effort of 43 different artists. There are 14 collaboration tracks. Five of them have at least four people involved and fifteen of the ReMixers have more than one track on the album. We also want to give a special shout out to MindWanderer who evaluated and provided feedback on every single track, as well as Bubble Pipe Media, who saved the day at the 11th hour by signing on as our mastering engineer. Siolfor the Jackal deserves a special mention as well for putting in a tremendous amount of effort behind the scenes. Every single person involved went above and beyond what was expected. The quality of this album and the rapidity with which it has been completed is a direct result of the talent and unyielding dedication of everyone involved. We are proud to present Golden Sun: A World Reignited, and we hope you enjoy every minute of it. - TSori

OCR04345 - *YES* Xenogears "Dancing in the Sky"
Liontamer replied to Gario's topic in Judges Decisions
The vocals are a weak point in that they're lack power and are exposed in too many places. Because they're mixed both loud (louder than the music itself), and relatively dry, all of the drawbacks in the singing performance stick out more than expected. Some effects to thicken up the sound and mitigate the lack of strength and/or some AutoTune could have helped mask it. No shade on Jorrith, but given other vocal tracks he's produced himself, I'm surprised he let this one go like this. It's a substantial drop, both singing quality and post-production on the vocals. Fiddledo's lyrics are still fun and fitting, and all of the instrumental performances are solid. I would like to hear the instrumental given some more oomph and the vocals given a stronger treatment to give them a richer sound. Sorry to dissent, but there's unrealized potential here on account of the mixing choices. I'm requesting some additional votes on here to either extend the YESs or elaborate on what else needs works before this is posted. NO (resubmit) -
