big update on my mix, it's still rough around the edges but you'll def get the picture of where I want this to go when u listen to it.

Haha yeah I know, and the other two are actually top100 over at ormgas.

Yeah I'm def goin with Ableton Live6, the work/cpu efficiency and also the automation capabilities make my mouth drool.

Holy crap the track list is getting very full and Zoola and Joker still have to pick tracks! Oh yeah the comment bout Dire Dire Docks FTW.

OK first listen I was kinda like uhh it's ok. Of course that was at 5am after I got woken up. But then I gave it a 2nd listen and I really like it. These are normally my favorite types of songs. Ethereal female vocals with texture shifting synths and DT beats. So I am def glad I gave it a 2nd listen. That whispering at 1:32! I wanna know how to do that! The mix is a lil rough around the edges in certain areas but it has way too many good aspects not to like it. Thanks pixie for making this song I really like it, I have been waiting for a song of this type to come out on OCR again for awhile.

Quick reply...much improved. 1:40 the volume on the harmony needs to go down when the melody comes in IMO. This def packs a whole lot more power. What it needs to be better is. A better relationship between the kick and bass, it's better but not quite there yet. Something that gets you grooving a little more. Also try some pin pong pannining with different elements. And also some automation on different pannings. Wicked good update, def finish this one off. Now go play with your knobs!

Wow watta a tight race. I really enjoyed V's. TO's and Nut's were right next to eacher other in my book. Still can't believe he did that song in an hour.

OH hell yeah! Also ocremixfan...Ailsean is doin 'Shattering the Egg of Dreams'...

Nice I was hoping for a few more orchestral songs. Also we gots anudda new mixer. Jewbei is gonna do a mix of 'My Village is Number One' for the gears disc... Also for clarification here is the updated available track list: The Valley Where Wind Is Born Leftovers of The Dreams of The Strong Stage of Death In A Dark Sleep The Wounded Shall Advance Into The Light Lost... Broken Shards The Blue Traveler The Jaws of Ice The Sky, The Clouds, And You Solaris: Eden of Heaven Pray For The People's Joy The Beginning And The End Star of Tears Faraway Promise Knight of Fire Also any of you opera/vocal people out there wanna get together and do a full blown version of 'The Wounded Shall Advance to the Light' i would seriously wet myself!

I really like it, it sounds pretty cool. I'd say expand on it more and give it some more expressive elements composionally. Maybe even some accompany orchestral or ethnic elements.

Fuse is further along! Post that shite. I got no problem with you taking up wings. Is it gonna be orchestral?

Another Soundscape posted his WIP on the boards go check it out, it's Hott! His source tune is Dajiru - City of Burning Sand.

did someone mention the infamous solitaire mix!

I haven't checked out Freeman's new track yet but I def digged Gamebox's last song. It took one or two listens to realize it was him, and then I listened I couple more times on repeat. Def has a nice vibe u can just set on repeat and sit back.

Sweeet We still gotta keep that WIP of invasion though, it was pretty good and it was the very first WIP i believe.

ZOMG nuther Remixer! Another Soundscape is gonna lay down a track on the Gears disc...swweeeet. He still has to pick a source though. We'd like to see progress on all the songs for the next WIP deadline. Also I'm gonna collab with Blue Magic on his track since he's running into writer's block and is gonna be pretty busy for a bit. If anyone else would like to join in on the fun let us know! The song is done in fl studio FYI

An ur gilgamesh song. Uh update on my song...ummmm...yeah...! I'm redoeing the entire soundscape. A few composition areas will be changed. Nothing major. But I'll be redoeing the entire song in Reason. Also with what I am gonna do now I don't the guitar, but it would still kick ass if it was in there. So it's all up to Tensei wether or not it has guitar in it...i hope it does. Frankly u'll get a much better song outta me if I do an electronic mix rather than rock.

Damn I thought there were a whole lot more songs! Yeah 'wings' is the same track as 'Powerful Mario' I believe. It's gonna upbeat and have lots of energy. I'll prob be using Reason, so if anyone else is interested in the same song I'm up for collabs.

If we can pick the sources now: I'll take "wings." If i find something I like better i'll change.

This went directly onto my HD. This reminds me alot of Reu's Schenmue mix. Which is also friggin amazing. Highly emotive piano that sounds like it's from a real serious anime. Good things: Attention to dynamics, wonderful build-ups and breakouts. Just when you think it can't get more emotive it does. Melody and harmony are awesome. I just wanna sit back and listen. Left hand technique. This is really the bread winner for this mix.

Count me in as a mixer, thanks for the invite. IMO prob wait till the start of summer. You know May/June? Everyone will have a lot more time during the summer. You guys are the Master in Chief and the Prime Minister so it's your call.

WTF i wrote a long post about this and it isn't here!? Sorry dude I'll try to make a shortened version. Composition is great! Although get some dynamics in that melody. Really explore up and down the scale. This piece has a great feel, and giving the melodies even more life could really make this stand out. Hand drum is too loud in the beggining, it overshadows everything. All of the melodies are too soft. Get some type of bass sound and some type of kick in there at places to really give this some good rythmix vibes. Yeah the samples are pretty lo-fi and that's gonna be something very hard to rectify.

avaris - SPY vs SPYro There ya go for tha love of PRC. OK so it took me 3 hours...blue screen of death and all too. I'm sure V can come up with a good 2nd place mix in 2 hours easily...wait that's happened before hasn't it.....

First off dis some hott shite! 1st song: Try adding in some french horn playing in the lower registers to accompany the strings. That could add some added texture and mood to the sonic goodness here. 2nd song: Hats or one of the sounds is a lil piercing IMO. I've watched some videos on live and having been using the demo, and that program is just friggin nasty.

I will attempt to do a remix of this theme in 1-2 HOURS!!!....oh my what have I gotten myself into.
