Cool, guys. I hope the tracks live up to your expectation of them. Just remastered the Staff Roll remix with new samples: East West Platinum, Gypsy, and Pianos. Same with my collab track with Fishy.

OC ReMix HALLOWEEN recommendations list
Sole Signal replied to Liontamer's topic in General Discussion
Halloween 2008 post date...Three years ago, already. http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01773/ -
...I'm not comparing freddiew to those people. He makes legitimately original work just based on existing subjects. It's (obviously) very different making a derivative or "remix" of an existing work as opposed to uploading the work itself as your own... My question is based on people making ad money off videos based on copyrighted subjects (i.e. AVGN, freddiew, irate gamer, How it Should Have Ended, video game music remix channels etc). When I licensed my Pirates of the Caribbean remix with Disney, I had very specific parameters that I had to obey (certain number of digital downloads vs physical sales). Since then, have they extended that to streaming uses in videos and ad revenue generated and does youtube police that?

That dubstep guns video is a golden idea; it plays right to what's popular now and does it well. Dubstep is like any other genre; there's a lot of generic sounding rock, rap, trance, house, soundtrack, and dubstep stuff out there. Takes talent to stick out from the rest. It's a cool development though which seems to have more crossover appeal as "instrumental music" than some other electronic genres. If done well it's more than just slapping a 4x4 kick on something with an off beat 4x4 synth bass and calling it a techno remix. Here's a new track I'm working on, a GoldenEye/Bond "dubstep" remix. Dubstep or not? http://www.solesignalmusic.com/remixes/solesignal_AfterHourMartini2011preview.mp3

It's a good question. I get ~500 views a day on my youtube channel; a friend of mine averages about a dollar a day (once $1.92!) on a similar amount of views. I've stayed away from the ads though, seeing that most of those views are generated by remixed tracks. Then again, freddiew has ads on stuff like his Portal gun video, and most of his videos are based on subjects that I doubt he has permission to use and monetize. (?) Anyone with success in similar situations?

OCR02157 - Mass Effect "Uncharted Depths"
Sole Signal replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Great mix and production. Love the atmosphere and restraint to let the source shine as it is. Looped it three times already. -

Which Games Don't You Make Remixes For?
Sole Signal replied to WillRock's topic in General Discussion
I really only remix tracks from games that I grew up with, unless it's for a project (Jade Empire, FF4). I try to make the standalone mixes count and be unique (Banjo, Mario Kart, Halo 3, Wave Race). It's fun to tackle sources I'm not familiar with but not near as enjoyable as working on a track I've always known. -
SALE! I have lowered the pricing for my previous album, One Day Millennium to $5! Pick it up here: http://solesignal.protagonistrecords.net/album/one-day-millennium -------------------------------------- New album preview Two years in the making since my last album release, here are a few rough cuts of what's in the studio now. Still work to be done, but wanted to share some of the original tracks that I've been putting together: http://soundcloud.com/solesignal/sole-signal-new-album-teaser As you'll be able to tell from the preview, it's a big mix of styles: breaks, dubstep, trance, orchestral. The second-to-last track in the preview was directly inspired by Hybrid's "Finished Symphony," and the rest share inspiration from anything like Rob Dougan's Matrix work to Skrillex's dubstep, zircon's breaks, and bLiNd's trance. Updates Stay posted on updates at http://www.facebook.com/solesignal and http://www.solesignalmusic.com Thanks guys!

Oh ok, thanks.

I'm very glad my first mix submitted didn't get posted. http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3893 First posted mix was about a year and a half after that.

I've noticed a few people have them; is there an option somewhere to upload one?

And it's running great, once I discovered the cause of the freezeups; RAM was jostled during shipping and wasn't completely seated. Now it breezes through my largest projects without breaking a sweat.

finished Sonic 1 - Green Hill Zone (80s Electro Reconstruction)
Sole Signal replied to Iceferno's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Great sound and mix of synths. Very cover-ish, so I dunno how well it would work in a submission. Good, clean sounding track. Liked it. -
Eagerly anticipating the remaining tracks getting completed. Most of the early tracks will be 4+ years old once this is all wrapped up. Cave Dungeon is done, btw. Did I get you the final wav yet?

The only three games I've beaten in the past year were Mass Effect 2, Halo: Reach, and Portal 2. All were very good and would be worth your time.

So how's everyone doing? Let's get this done. PM me if anyone is looking for some collab help to get their track finished.
