http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Success_(company) Success are awesome, represent! Also, dungeon crawlers are an acquired taste, that's all I can said.

Hah, we can't be more than 8 players anyway I'll join you for baalruns since I probably won't make most gameplay meet-ups

Screw your warmup, I'm a natural

I'm game. AnotherSoundscape started folding today!

Told you..

You load up "Epic Dulcimer" in Reason, then you play the keyboard like it was a marimba!

Screw Ace Combat, the only awesome game abbreviated AC is Armored Core. They're all awesome!

Those are the generally accepted leveling spots. Cow level could be swapped for, you know doing quests and shit. I'm not going to rush through the game on a ladder reset, the whole concept of Baalruns won't even work then I vote we do the quests and if we feel low-level we can use these spots. Also, I call Necromancer Poison/Summon hybrid.. or perhaps an Assassin Kicker/Trapper hybrid.

SUP GUYS!? I'm in when it goes down. See you there!

Good stuff. I should get the God of War games too! Mirror's Edge is short but highly enjoyable. It will be remembered fondly

I don't think the arrangement was as problematic as Larry thought. The original melody writing was a bit aimless but I didn't think it was bad. The main hook is the string chords from the original which work well with the rather unpredictable vibraphone melody. The drums are also pretty cool but could sound a little less stiff at times. Still, the actual arrangement lacks developement of the source and some more recognizable arrangement of the source melody. Production was a bit iffy. Many sounds were bleeding into eachother, the strings especially felt like they had too much reverb and/or release on the samples. The actual string samples could be improved a little bit too. I think this showed promise but like Larry said you need to get a better feel for writing and rearranging melodies. Keep at it! NO(resubmit)

It's too bad really, just like your previous submission this is one fantastic piece of music. However it's not primarily an arrangement of video game music. There's not anything wrong with that but it's not what OCR is about.. I urge you to write some arrangement involving a liiittle less solos and some more recognizable arrangement of the source. I'd love to see some kind of version of this on OCR though, because well, it's freaking awesome. NO

Well, since the issue with trackers is such a new thing that isn't actually illegal (it's not copyright infringement), it is a bit odd that the judge is a member of an organization about copyright that has been trying to make it illegal and/or support the "other party". Especially if he's very close with people that are involved in the case, representing companies (not law-enforcers! not police!) or such. When it comes to something like this where they have to set an example of how to take on this case in the future, it's very very annoying to get this kind of information revealed. Not saying the verdict was nessecarily wrong but it should be fair.

I like 114 most too. It seemed way tighter between the two of you, probably because of the editing. Nice work yet again! Keep it up!

Interesting stuff: according to swedish tabloid Aftonbladet there is a chance the trial will be re-done because the judge had too strong connections to the lawyers representing the record and movie industry and the industry itself. Probably a load of bullshit but if it's true it's definitely interesting and might explain the harsh (relatively) punishment.

There are many but none in CANADA.

That's complete and utter bullshit! They're analogue-style synths and work perfectly with the style. Anyway, I think this and the first one are two of my all-time favorite remixes. I hope that I too can once make a synth-epic like this. Please come back to OCR and submit more!

This is a result of the major labels already having tons of money to promote an artist/band/album with commercials, videos or whatever. Clever marketing, perhaps, but it's sad that most people think they need something that might suck compared to something that's legal and free. Also, copyright should exist but LIFE+70 YEARS OF IT!? Something's wrong with that. I mean, I can't even get Stravinsky's sheet music in the EU because it's copyrighted by some stupid publishing company.. I mean come on, that's a treasure of fantastic music that SHOULD BE AVALIABLE FOR FREE, especially considering it's impact on music in history. Bah.

It has me in it! Go get it!

Some companies are really evil and do not deserve to be publishers. Some are not. In fact, most are not. I'm pretty sure when no one complains, no one can hear it. btw, sidetracking a bit, what do you guys think about copyright holders lashing out on Little Big Planet mods that depict their game/movie/whatever? I mean, it's a TRIBUTE. People won't buy Little Big Planet instead of a Simpsons DVD? ..it's pretty obvious were I stand in that, right? :3 Also, be sure to hook up soundtempest.net for an interesting take on the news that all Pirates use all over the net.

Fantasticular birthday McVaffe! Glad you're back on OCR, please don't leave again. Let's be friends.

You smell, go home! (i.e. oh right, awesome, but the issue is that they release albums called Original Sound Version just because it's the original tracks)

I like 'VGM Sound Data' but it might cause discussion since all digital sound is sound data ;P

Yeah, I simplified it for sure. That's interesting though because the artist didn't get a lot of money there either, the "copyright holders" did! That's strange. Also, Mozart's patron allowed it to be performed! That's what I'd like to see. The money has become too much of a factor in creation. Anyway, Mozart and Beethoven started the cult-of-the-creator-genius at least, and that really bloomed during the romantic period.. And most importantly, I don't think everything should be free against the composers will and I don't support illegal downloading. I'm just bringing forward another point of view What I mean is.. I don't think creation of art is really related to money. Creating art, as an expression of your feelings, indvidiuality or whatever doesn't feel connected to earning a lot of money imo. No shame in both composing/painting/whatev and having another job or you know, just making enough money and not a fortune Painters can definitely become paintbrush makers too. Or you know, paint stuff for something that might not be their vision. Like a composer doing a movie soundtrack to something he doesn't really like to get some extra cash to focus on his real vision. I think it's out of balance somehow but that's a whole other story. I think it is part of why piracy is such a big thing (together with technology and greed). Again, this is hard stuff to discuss and analyze..

I love you BigGiantGenitals
