Totally brilliant. I've always thought this was your best arrangement out of all the ones you have on Youtube - the instrumentals are fantastic and compliment the vocals perfectly. I don't really know how else to describe it, but it's a joy to see this come up on the front page and get even more attention that it deserves.

http://tindeck.com/listen/ltrn Not my work, apparently this one's credited to "gogetails22122." Sounds like exactly what you were asking for though.

Never knew just how much musical diversity and talent DCT had in him before this song Great contribution to the OCR library, I loved this when I heard it on your site and I still love it now!

This is a solid mix dude, it's a huge improvement over anything else I've heard from you. Overall, nice meshing soundscape, the only issue I have is the drumkit doesn't necessarily fit with everything else. Use some industrial 'crashing' percussion or some woodblocks to give some character to the beat Should be submittable if you fix up the drums, though the arrangement might not fly due to conservativeness. Nonetheless, I urge others to take a listen to this, it's a good one!

Holy crap, you got an excellent lineup for this! Nice work!

Just giving you an update that I'll very likely be there in August If all goes according to plan, I'll be carpooling and roomsharing with Jakesnke17 and possibly some others. I'm so excited for this!

Daaayyyuuuuuummmmmmmmm!!

If you don't think the song is finished, then you prolly shouldn't be using the Mod Review tag. That's just for when your song is finished and ready to be submitted. However, since it's tagged I'll throw you some cursory feedback on the arrangement that you've got thus far. The bass is a neat idea, but as has been said it grates on you after a while and needs some changing up, and eventually needs to get pushed back a bit to let some other elements of the song take focus. Basically, the big problem here is a lack of subtlety with your sounds; everything is up-front and very abrasive - either EQ some of the treble down on your instruments or pick some different synths that are a bit less aggressive. That said, I love any source from Mario Galaxy so I think this has some potential, just keep refining it and give it a more subtle sound while still keeping that energetic edge. Good luck!

So, status update: it's been almost a month since my last post and I've only gotten 4 updated WIPs... and 3 of them have been from Theophany (with 2 of them being just a hair's length away from WAV status.) So, thanks to him for his dedicated work on the project - the rest of you, I'd really like to start seeing some updates soon! The deadline is still far off but some of you haven't even turned in enough to meet the last deadline, so if you've been working but haven't turned in a WIP yet, get me something or at least let me know that you've got progress. I know pretty much every project's been in a slump lately, but let's try to kick things back into gear! It's been too long without the normal level of progress

I tried to find you an 8-bit cake, but I got distracted on Google images so instead, here's some... chiptunnaaaaaaa~ *ducks* You're the best dude, I hope you have an amazing day!

I still don't think this mix is super-conservative - in fact I'm having a hard time picking out the source here. I personally wish the most dominant melody from the original (the one that you brought in at the very end of the song) was more prevalent just because that's the melody that I associate with this source. That said, this is your best remix, in my personal opinion. The ambiance is just right and the drumloops really complement it great. What really pushes this one over the edge is the tone of the guitar you used in the solo - it's very reminiscent of the stuff that Skrypnyk used in his album Suburbia which is one of my favorite ambient albums. You captured that essence beautifully even though I'm pretty sure you weren't directly trying to emulate that style I think you could take a few pointers from this remix and apply it to your other songs; there's times where I feel like you're picking overly generic synths for your electronic songs but I don't feel like you fell into that pitfall in this case. All the sounds mesh well and it all sounds fresh and unique. I'd like to see more of that incorporated into future songs by you! In short, niiiice work Love this one a lot!

Who's coming up from the Mesa/Phoenix area for this? I'm interested in going but I'm not going to have transportation of my own come August. I'm 18, so if I end up bumming a ride, I'd prefer to carpool with people relatively close to my age (within 4 or 5 years maybe) if it's possible

What they really need to do is bring back those mini webisodes and provide some closure on some of the smaller mysteries that would be nice to know about, but would seem out of place in a regular episode. I always thought that medium was underutilized. Beautiful finale, though. I wasn't expecting something like that at all but they handled it beautifully. From a character development standpoint, everything wrapped up full-circle.

Can we integrate something onto the Album reference page (such as this: http://ocremix.org/album/3/super-metroid-relics-of-the-chozo) that shows which remixes from the album have been posted? Those pages look sort of crowded but if the album associations are already in the database, it shouldn't logistically be too difficult to implement, right? Thanks for this!

http://baddudes.bandcamp.com/album/chronotorious Mazedude made a mix of this song for this album, but you've gotta pay for it. The album is well worth it though

Just wanted to say that I still love this remix If I could critique anything, I'd point out that the drum sequencing is pretty bland at times and the samples aren't necessarily amazing either :\ It doesn't bring down the song much but it's a notable sore spot in an otherwise-fantastic mix.

Yeah, I get the abrupt transition idea, it's just something about the timing that seems off to me; I'm going from memory right now because Tindeck is blocked at school but I remember the initial drumbeat coming in at a weird time. Just to clarify what I meant by that. Glad I could help!

Not gonna go into full-on feedback mode, but I will say that your strings sample is sounding unrealistic here, both in articulation and sample quality :\ Might want to look at that yourself or get a second opinion on how to improve that, if you decide you're not content with it as-is. That said though, your arrangement is soooo good Loving this, this is some very creative, inspired, and highly cinematic orchestral that I can definitely enjoy. Hope this makes it onto the site at some point!
