  1. What's up guys?

    Remember me? I had my Kirby's Block Ball remix posted earlier this year! :D

    I just wanted to let you guys know that my new 4-track EP 'Gimbal' was just released through SGX's Protagonist Records, which has also released albums from artists you all know like zircon (!!!), SGX, Siamey, SoleSignal (former known as Audix), Malcos and Flickerfall (Palpable produces that one). I'm super excited to be associated so directly to such an amazingly talented group of people, and I hope you all will enjoy my work!

    Here are the links:

    This EP is great for people who like to DJ/spin/mix music too, because the three main tracks are all fully extended, making it an absolute breeze to throw in a set.

    Yaw is a solid progressive trance/house tune with a nice bassline, orchestral break and Indian vocals to complement.

    Pitch is an electro-house BANGER with a MASSIVE bassline, and middle-eastern sounding tune.

    Roll is a high energy progressive trance tune that's amazing for driving and high energy sets.

    And finally, Star Gaze is the outlier in this album as it is an extremely chilled, downtempo melodic track with a hip hop beat.

    So anyhow, there it is! I always welcome feedback too, so feel free! And most importantly, keep supporting OCR artists :).

    Thanks guys!

  2. This probably sounds more negative than intended, but this remix sounds like OCR anno ~2002. The arrangement, the choice of sounds/instruments, the production...all of it reminds me of OCR of yonder.

    Which, as far as I am concerned, isn't necessarily a bad thing, seeing as how I listen to the old trance remix rather often.

    Martin, thank you buddy, I take that as a compliment! I was definitely going for 'listening' style trance than raving-style. As long as the production wasn't too bad :).

  3. It's only fitting that bLiNd's new track gets posted directly after my first since he's the artist that really got me hooked on this website/electronic music! I've been listening to this one for a while since it was on his myspace; unreal stuff. Another instance of the source tune being so unfamiliar that this seems like an awesome original track, haha. The 6/8-ness and the unique chord progression really stand out to me in this one. The whole thing feels like incredibly well produced 1980s synth-pop but nevertheless retains the bLiNd trance feel. I LOVE it!

  4. Tennis is a whiner's sport.

    Anyway, I stopped caring about baseball when the Padres dumped Bruce Bochy. The Padres have tanked since then. I mean, they're worse than the fucking Rockies, WTF.

    I lol'd at this quote. We've won over 90 games in 2 of the last three years including a World Series appearance....and many experts have picked us to win the NL West and even the World Series this year. Times have changed man, the Rox are LEGIT.

    In case you need your memory jogged:

  5. Andrew, you are insane man. This track is crazy...that's the easiest way I can put it. This is dirrrtyyyy....wowwwww. I swear man, this is why I love this site. The only videogame that I play these days is Mario Kart, but the quality of music that comes out here transcends the games themselves for me. And this is another example of it: never played TF2 (hate on me if you'd like...haha), but I still love this remix!

    By the way, I would like to personally thank you for introducing me to Zebra2 through all of your youtube music tutorials....invested in it over winter break and it is currently my favorite VST, easily.

  6. also, the new balk rule: when not standing on the mound, a pitcher who goes to his mouth must wipe off his hand before rubbing down the ball. before the rule used to be only when the pitcher was on the mound but now it encompasses a pitcher's actions at all times

    Didn't know that, that's good to know. Franklin Morales got called for that several times during the stretch run in the 2007 season and playoffs because he went to the mouth will still on the mound. Now he has to be extra careful, especially considering that he's our replacement closer.

  7. I'VE GOTTA FEVA, and the only prescription...IZ MOAR SYDECHAIN! lol

    The bass at the beginning it sick; it reminds me a lot of a local band from here called Savoy. Overall, aside from the fact that I blatantly recognized the percussion loop that comes in at 0:20, which is always a downer, this is some victorious ish. We're finally seein' a growing number of house-y submissions here on OCRemix...good trend imo.

    Keep it up mayne!

  8. Ah yes, good ol' Phrakture. If you people haven't heard of this guy, you've been missing out hardcore. In my opinion, this kid could very well be the BT of the next generation (the dude is like 15 years old or somethin!!!!). I've never heard the source so I'm just listening to this objectively; man, this track's got some tight breaks, great ambiance, great synth work, and a pristine production. It's like zircon meets Hybrid or somethin!

    RGreat job man, and to the rest of you, make sure you look for more of his works on Youtube 'n Beatport...
