I'll give Metropolis Zone a shot - I can't sing that well, so I'll pick a lyricist asap.

I'd like to throw down a beat or 2. How do I sign up? EDIT: Here's a few samples of my music. http://soundcloud.com/hoboka

Well, I've got something I'm about to upload...I hope there'll be more than just me =/

Happy Bday Rexy

Right...didn't read the fine-print =p - good news indeed

How's about encouraging a little less emphasis on production and more-so on composition? Also...Shariq I appreciate it very much that you're attempting to fix things up a bit, but... How do we enforce these things?? Telling people to be courteous and good sportsmen is one thing, but, that's tricky. Anyways, I always do my best to vote fair and try to tone down my grumbling when I lose =p EDIT - when we do have issues with a certain member of the forum, it often falls on deaf ears - I won't name any individuals, but there are a few who trash talk and get on their high horse all the time =/

oh well - I'll give it a shot regardless. I'll be needing the luck I bet so thanks

So, where's my wooden spoon? anyhoo, nice round guys - (ps can you pick an easier source for the next round DrumJ8?)

Happy Birthday to the Pretzel:pretzel:

Vote submitted - interesting tracks all around lol

I guess I need to get mIRC for the event, don't I =/?

I struggled pretty bad...with many, many different trainwreck ideas so in my frustration, I created a retarded joke remix EDIT - I know I'm not supposed to make any qualitive remarks about my mix, but it's pretty obvious the first second of the track for what it is =/

Congrats Halc and aidanbk! Looks like it wasn't easy money for me as Meteo had 'predicted'

Compared to the FF series, it'd be nothing lol.

I'll try my hand at this one; reminds me a bit of Castlevania and Earthworm Jim somehow lol. ...Count Earthworm Jimula?? Anyhoo I can vouch for Jazz Jackrabbit 2 being f'kin awesome, albeit I haven't played it in more than 10 years I think. There should RLY be a port for this game for PSN and Xbox live (Jazz Jackrabbit 1 as well)...btw the 2 rabbit-doods on the cover look stoned out of their minds lmao

We'll hold you to that

I would gladly pay for a physical CD or DL when it's done

Will we be getting the results soon?

Sweeet - I'll go pick that up as soon as I'm able Thanks for the tip theshaggyfreak =D

I could use some theory related training my biggest problem is that I'm only proficient with 4/4 time sigs - I used to be able to play 6/4 and 3/4 on the piano and trumpet, but was more than a decade ago now haha...also I almost always go by ear when I make chord progressions =/

You talking about morals Snapp?? How about all the griefing to the newer remixers and your elitist high-horse douchebaggery? Don't you think that that BS gives OCR as much a black eye, as (you claim) this fundraiser is to the people you've messed with?

I can vouch for this philosophy It's a good mindset to adopt - still a work in prog for me, but trust Willrock and me on this =p

Congratulations Angel! When composing for VG or film music, you really need to pay attention to the background story, the characters, setting (especially setting) and obviously the current scene you're in. For yon "Urban Vampire" movie - I would personally strive for a very brooding, dark and gritty soundscape - so whip out your dark pads for sure (Orchestration can work too; but a hybrid with creepy pads would be pure win). Given that there's vampires, there will probably be seduction, maybe even some crude love scenes - so you'll want to consider makings the music for those parts feel more organic and soft - a brooding kind of soft - but you know what I mean . Then the horror stuff is really, really about timing the music to the scene, which means you've got to pay attention to each second to get the best result (similar with action scenes). Hopefully these basic tips will help keep your confidence up - and don't let the bad comments here pull you down.

I really have a hard time wrapping my head around Dubstep + sad theme = win, but I guess if any1 can pull it off, it's Sir_Nuts. Well done. Next time I'll remember to improvise more =p
