Since one of the only EDM-styles applicable in this case was Big Room (which switches the main melody for the breaks) we decided to make a Big Room-esque track where the main melody is in all the slow parts and the so called drop consists of variations of the intro melody heard in the original. It is quite the departure from the original but that is a key part of a track from Pixel Pirates.

Original Decision Artist: SweetNES Hi there, OCRemix. Below is my resubmission for yet another ChronoTrigger Remix which, by my math, should now be suitable for your criteria for a high enough percentage of original source material. Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks as always for what you do for the VGM community!

Hey! So we most likely missed Mario/DK Priority month but either way we are super (no pun intended) happy with how this arrangement turned out. A bit of Backstory. The original ORIGINAL version of this was a dwelling of duels submission that actually had lyrics and had a much different arrangement. After a while I went back to it and totally revamped the arrangement and got rid of the lyrics. I of course mad a ridiculous puppet music video of it seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVd3IFH7PEY I’ve been meaning to submit this one for a while, and when Mario/DK priority came up I decided to take the opportunity to re re do it with real instruments. Huge thanks to Lucas Guimaraes for gathering everyone involved and also thanks to everyone involved…that was redundant but still. Alas I’m probably too late for the priority but in any event here is my Bavarian polka arrangement of Crocodile Cacophony entitled: Crocodile Kroctoberfest (Prost Mix) Game: Donkey Kong Country 2, Super Smash Bros Ultimate Name of Arrangement: Crocodile Kroctoberfest (Prost Mix) Name of Song: Crocodile Cacophony (The Smash Ultimate Version) Original Composer: David Wise Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2skbG1WHXw Artists: General Grunt - arrangement/composition Muffin Tunes - clarinets, bass clarinet Valse39 - clarinets Ian Martyn - accordion Shea's Violin - violins optimizasean - violins Nemo Fairlight - viola Lucas Guimaraes - orchestra, percussion Ridley Snipes - electric bass, drums, percussion, mix/master Attached in the email is the 320k Mp3 but I've also included a google drive link with other formats.

Hi there! Remixer name: evilsonic userid: 38614 Game: Chuck Rock Name of Arrangement: The Unga Bunga Blues Individual Song Arranged: Title Theme Additional Information: Composer is Matthew Simmonds, game was originally released on Atari ST and Amiga Computers, later released for Sgea Genesis, Super Nintendo, Commodore 64, and GameBoy (my arrangement is based on the Genesis soundtrack) Link to Dwelling of Duels entry: Comments: This track was submitted for the June 2022 Dwelling of Duels competition "Fresh Month" where all entries had to be from games never before submitted to DoD. I saw that there weren't any Chuck Rock remixes on OCR and thought this might be a fresh track here. The main inspiration came for this when I was mindlessly playing La Grange on my guitar around the time I first heard this OST and something clicked. Thanks! Mike "evilsonic"

Your ReMixer name: Parker Walker (I hope that my previous remixes' remixer name can be changed from SPIRAL_SYSTEM to Parker Walker, if not, then use SPIRAL_SYSTEM. Thanks!) Your real name Parker Walker Your email address Your website(s) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW1jycmYfDZYXPnL6W9DEtQ Your userid (number, not name) on our forums, found by viewing your forum profile: SPIRAL_SYSTEM Streets of Rage 2 Can't stop me! Go Straight For this mix, I took a more conservative approach, because all the elements of the original are very "90s". Hence, I kept the 90s feel, yet didn't go for a total FM sound like my other SOR2 remix because I think that, honestly, Yuzo did it the best on this one and I can't surpass him. Instead, I went for 90s house feel using 90s production techniques, arrangements and sounds. I even used the legendary JD-990 synthesizer (produced at the time) and samples from the TR 909 to give extra authenticity and 90s feel. All the bass sounds are from Chip MD, a Sega FM emulator. All in all, it's a re-imagining of what the song would have been using state of the art production techniques at the time, and a quite conservative homage on this classic v-game track. I hope the fans enjoy!

Hey ocremix team! I'm submitting another one of my arrangements! ReMixer name: Mental Real Name: Ly email address: my social media: https://lymusicger.bandcamp.com https://soundcloud.com/lymusicger userid: 17600 Name of game: Donkey Kong Country 2 Name of original soundtrack: Mining Melancholy Name of my arrangement: Prismatic Some important remarks to the track: I used the metal tops from the source material. I made sure it's subtle and is audible at the start and during the second part of the main theme around 2:38. I hope it doesn't clash with copyright issues. The spoken vocals originate from commercially available sample packs. To the music itself: Mining Melancholy already had a retro vibe to begin with, so synthwave felt appropriate for me. Personally, the signature sound of the original track has always been the insane percussion and the heavy synths, so I preserved the top metals and kept the whole piece synthy. To give it a bit of the organic feeling I added some vocals, little arpeggio effects and an electric guitar to fill in between the melody. It's a very simplistic remix, but I hope it's still enjoyable. Best regards! Ly

Hi. Here’s a new remix I did recently. It’s from one of my all time favourites games »Marble Madness«. Back in 1986 I first played it in an arcade game park in france during a holiday with my family. The arcade-version was pretty hard though, so I got no further than the third level. With the amiga-version I could play it to the end. There are only six levels but it’s a lot of fun. Sadly the successor »Marble Madness 2« was never released. :o( I started the remix with a stomping beat and the widely known »Beginner Race«-theme. But after some time I integrated the »Practice Race«-music and it evolved to a kind of chorus. And the positive vibes of this theme took the helm and made the whole remix really energetic.

I've always wanted to do my own take on Trisection. I got a bit out of my comfort zone and arranged a sax quartet. I was very lucky to have pulled this off in the little time we had towards the end of the deadline (about 50% of the month was spent on arranging). My amazing collaborators and I pulled it off. With some nice feedback, we ended up polishing it some more before an official release and OCR submission. Final Fantasy Tactics represents a game about war, friends (and other loved ones) growing apart and no longer being able to go back to your home. I purposely waited for as long as possible to go directly back to the A section at the very end because I wanted the A section to be felt with a different context. Almost no other section is a 1:1 reprise except that section. Like, the first time I do the B section, I give the melody to the Baritone Saxophone. Second time? Soprano. So yes, the notes are the same, but the context they're experienced in is different. It's like visiting your hometown 20 years after moving: Yeah, the place is still the same, but so, so much else has changed. No matter how much you want to, you will never be able to return home. It's a bit of a downer, but I hope you all enjoy it.

Contact Information Username: H36T UserID:37144 Website: https://www.youtube.com/@H36TRemasters Submission Information Arrangement Game: Final Fantasy VIII Name of Arrangement: Compression of Light and Shadow Song Being Arranged: Compression of TIme Comments: Hello there! I'm back again with another mix (and a new name!), this time from whaat I consider to be 1A or 1B to FFVII for Uematsu's greatest works OST wise. My opinion aside, I actually have never been a big fan of this song in the game. However, from a creative standpoint, I saw a lot there. While the original is pretty simple and kinda creepy and ominous, I (maybe) took some of that away and gave it an atmospheric makeover. The beginning is this spacial, airy presentation of the theme, quickly taken over by a cloud of darkness, thunder, and heavy rain. The end result is something that feels to me like a conversation betweeen composer and OCReMixer. And I think thats what its all about. Oddly enough, the first half I made a few years ago and left it as is for awhile. But I've been getting into this style where I take a track, present one thing thematically and then flip it...or blow it out the water haha. The end result is usually something more faithful while adding new layers. After exploring that I take that and transform it into something new. A yin and a yang. A light and a shadow. In my early days writing, I worried I was engaging in the act of lazy writing, but over time I've come to embrace this style. Maybe I'll try something different and more traditional next time. For now, I hope you enjoy Compression of Light and Shadow. Until next time~ (PS: I tried my hardest to get the clipping and volume under control without using a compressor on the master track but at the end of the day, I got the balance I wanted in terms of how it sounded to my ears and with -1db on the compression threshold it came back with no clipping so I called it a day hahaha....uh oh)

ReMixer name: jnWake, Ivan Hakštok, Nemo Fairlight Name of game(s) arranged: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Name of arrangement: The Secret Lullaby. Name of individual song(s) arranged: Zelda's Theme (https://ocremix.org/song/41/zeldas-theme So, back in like 2014 I was contacted about an upcoming album that was dedicated to djp's recently born daughter. It was meant to be an album of more chill tracks and my super creative mind immediately went to Zelda's Lullaby... Anyway, where my mind actually went to a creative spot was the idea of basing this remix on one of my favorite "regular" music songs, "The Secret Song" by british prog-rock/pop band Frost* (here: https://open.spotify.com/track/1kIb02iceWgfdJdmaFWvGR?si=92e837a97a1a4651). For some reason that I can't fully recall currently, my 2014 self thought that Zelda's Lullaby fit with this particular song so I got the idea of mixing them together. Since Frost's tune has vocals I also wanted to add vocals to my arrangement. In any case, for reasons I can't recall I never really started writing the arrangement and it just stayed in my head, completely missing the chance to be in the album meant for djp's daughter. Fast-forward to 2023 and for April's Free Month on Dwelling of Duels I decided to revisit this idea. I managed to find some collabers and I finally managed to do it! I'm pretty happy with how it ended up and I'm glad I can finally share what was meant to be for djp's daughter who I assume is too old for lullabies now! Somewhat funnily, I also became a father in the meantime so I guess I can dedicate this to my own daughter, who I think shares a birthdate with djp's one! Small breakdown now: 0:00-0:08: Intro percussion, heavily inspired by Frost's song. The electronic toms are actually playing Goron's Lullaby from Majora's Mask but it's so subtle that I didn't even list it as a source. 0:09-0:28: Zelda Lullaby's melody on piano. The timing is slightly different from the original but I think the emphasis on the A works pretty well. 0:29-1:08: First verse, the vocals sing Zelda Lullaby's main melody, the chords are heavily based on Frost's song first verse. 1:09-1:38: Chorus! This is the B section from Zelda Lullaby with very few alterations outside of the rhytm. 1:39-2:17: Zelda Lullaby main melody now on guitar! The rhytm change is taken from Frost's song but while they stay with electronic drums I shifted to real (well, sampled) ones. 2:18-2:56: Second chorus! The similarities with Frost's song end here as I move to a more standard Wake-ish arrangement. 2:56-3:55: Variations over the main Zelda Lullaby theme on guitar and keys. 3:56-end: Return to the electronic percussion and ending! Hope you like it! I'm curious if the resemblance to a "real" song is a problem but I hope it isn't haha. Source: Reference Track from Frost*:

Unfortunately the mix was a bit weak, so I took some time over two months and redid a bunch of the mix. I really wanted to get something out the door for Mario month. Anyways, hope you enjoy it!

Contact Information Cyril the Wolf Connor Pelkey https://cyrilthewolf.com 14582 Submission Information Chrono Cross Scar's Worn by Time CHRONO CROSS ~Scars Left By Time~ I've been wanting to do a version of this tune for awhile now, but there's so many takes on this song I just couldn't figure it out. Eventually though I was trying to figure out what songs I wanted to perform for a set at MAGFest when I realized you could do an acoustic arrangement fairly convincingly and cover *most* of the parts. I did perform it live in that manner since it was just me and a guitar at MAGFest, but I wanted to get BOMBASTIC to really measure up to the original for the recording. I elected to fore-go extra strings and things and keep it pretty simple so the parts that were there could shine. This was also submitted to the Dwelling of Duels contest for January/December as well and I'm proud of how well everything clicked. Lyrics: The memories are flowing fast They're too fine for me Sands of time wearing away what walls that I had built So I let you in But Time was never meant for us It merely wanted our tears as we bear its scars... We pay the price of those who came before We pray that we won't be the same Devoured by the ones who sealed our fate Our world is just a frozen flame When all of the dew dries Ending the morning Do we condemn nature because nothing ever lasts? Cerulean our skies No sign of a warning We sighed at the future and just lived in our past When all of our dreams die Who is in mourning? We cry for the future but can't forgive our past

As if Solo Piano, solo guitar, or anything else wasn't hard enough, this is a solo performance on a monophonic instrument. Normally I'd do a source breakdown, but literally EVERYTHING in it was derived from the source. This idea came about for the Pixel Mixers contest month in November. TSori hit me up and went "What if we did a solo trumpet arrangement" We tossed a few ideas around. So I landed up on this idea: What if there was an alternate timeline where Cyrus doesn't die, and many of them in battle are injured. The second part, which is just Frog's theme, focuses on Frog's reflection from the battle. When both themes are merged in the third part, Magus tries to explain to him his true intentions of summoning Lavos. Frog doesn't know what to believe. I left some ambiguity for the listener to imagine how it ends, but my vision is that after the two fight, they move onto their real goal: Killing Lavos. It gave me inspiration and it solved another problem: That we needed enough melodic content to carry a solo trumpet performance. Okay, now for some insights on the production With such a heavy idea, and an idea on how to musically execute it (thanks TSori for solo trumpet references!), I was off to work pretty fast. I know I work fast, but this was the one time where a lot of things came together cleanly. My ideas are messy, they don't always work that clean, but we went back and forth to make the piece more idiomatic. After we handled that, we worked together a LOT to hone in on the details of the performance. It was mostly in TSori's hands until it came back to me for mixing. My initial mix for the November contest was a bit rough because I had to leave for the holiday. I went back, redid the mix some, properly mastered it this time, and now I think we have something closer to the production standards of OCR. Honestly, I'm not sure how this is going to go here on OC Remix. I'm far, far more fascinated in hearing what the judge's reactions are than anything else. I hope you all enjoy it. It's certainly different - not just for OCRemix but for VGM in general. And that's what I hope to keep doing. Paying homage to our favorite games and artistic mediums by seeing how they can be pushed. TSori's comments: I pitched the idea of an unaccompanied trumpet solo to Lucas after months of thinking about it myself , but never actually getting anywhere. Fortunately, Lucas is pretty fond of wacky ideas (understatement) so he took the suggestion and just ran with it. After discussing a few different source tunes we settled on Battle with Magus and he turned out the first draft of the arrangement remarkably quickly. We worked together to make a few small tweaks, mainly to give me a few more places to breathe, and then it was time to practice....A LOT . I had asked Lucas to make this a very technical and challenging piece, and he certainly did.! I had a blast learning and recording this, and I can't wait to see what kind of silly idea we decide to try next.

Hey there! It's been a while. I hope everyone is doing well. I have a something new that I would like to submit. This is a remix of "Aria Math" from Minecraft. I personally haven't played this game since it was still in beta back in 2011, but my daughter plays it. I just happened to be in our game room when she was playing, and Aria Math randomly started playing in the background and I knew I needed to add it to my VGM collection. I really loved the feel of this song and after listening to it for a while, I decided to try a remix. The mix isn't too crazy. It's kind of my normal style: easy listening/chill. I wanted to keep things kinda short and concise while being sure to follow the flow of the original. I'm still terrible at playing the keyboard and still don't know much about the technical side of music production, but I am proud to say that I did put my old Novation Impulse 49 to good use this time around. Anyways, I hope you all like it. Contact Info NoTuX (aka Blue Magic) Damon Campbell Submission Info Game: Minecraft Remix Name: Blue Magic Original song: Aria Math

Hi. I released the first version of this remix back in 2011 on my YouTube-channel. But for the OC Remix-submission I reworked parts of it and tried to optimise the production. The source song is one of the best dungeon-themes in all Zelda games. It creates an dark oppressive atmosphere from the beginning and sets the tone for the dungeon. In my remix I tried to emphasise the feeling of constantly water dropping and the vastness of the music of the original.

I went a sort of similar path in a different genre, but leaned hard into combining the identifiable melody with the pacing and sound design of the dark club style cyberpunk 2077 popularized, while staying true to my own personal tastes in energy and erring on the side of uplifting mystery and intensity/action to better represent Aloy's curious, confrontational, and optimistic nature over the genre's typical dark and oppressive vibes. I chose to include in-game samples from HZD's "longneck" enemy machine, as their extended screeches fit the genre and arrangement nicely. Cheers

Uhh, this is INCREDIBLE. I admittedly haven't kept up with Jorito's full catalog as of late, but this feels like a substantial level up specifically in terms of production. The percussion has so much impact and fluidity, and there's an incredible level of warmth to the organic instrumentation that gels together flawlessly, despite the massive array of instruments involved. Truly stellar work to everyone involved!

Hello OCRemix, After my last submission getting approved (A Scent of Lavender), I decided to submit another song from my album, because reading about the judge's opinion was really interesting for me.

This is the second track of my album of remixed video game tracks in an atmospheric black metal way (you can find the whole album here : Black SeeD - Farplane of Memories (2021)). The goal of this track and the album in general was to work with songs on which I felt that I could emphasize melancholic themes with my favorite music genre. For this song, the theme is easily recognisable throughout the whole song. It's already catchy enough by itself, so I tried to emphasize it even more in my style, make it more "bouncy" while trying to keep the melancholy of it. I hope you'll like it ! Thanks a lot !
