  1. Some exciting things happening on all fronts right now...

    First off, Ergosonic's Rockface Rumble remix is DOOOOOONNNNEE!! It's definitely going to be a first-day mixpost, I can already tell that much... For someone who's only published 4 or 5 remixes in his time, Ergo's come up with something that's absolutely blown away my expectations for the track, and will surely do the same for you. This is one to get hyped about! :-D

    In other news, we've lost McVaffe for the time being, who's having computer troubles... however, we've had the amazingly talented Doc Nano, big-name mixer prophetik and the ever-lovable Rozovian come on board with some new WIPs that are just fantastic. Expect great things from the both of them.

    Lastly, ARTWORK! I've showed this to a lot of you guys already, but for those who haven't seen it yet, we've finally got artwork done by TheMaverickk and we'll be posting a preview in the next few days with any luck :-) At the risk of sounding smug, I feel confident that this will be one of the best looking projects, from an artwork standpoint, that OCR has ever seen. More to come soon!

    LOVE YOU GUYS who've been working away at your songs. Let's see more of that soon!

  2. And no nod to halc for this epic music?

    I concur, the music is ballz :3

    WAIT HOLD UP... there's music in here?

    :tomatoface:

    You know I jest. I've heard some of these tunes before but the finished versions are even more pro :-) I know you're a prolific remixer primarily, but I hope you make MAD BANK on your original project too bro!

  3. Ergosonic... man, I swear, this guy should have been the one composing Donkey Kong Country Returns. It's been a long time coming but I've finally gotten a WIP from him for Rockface Rumble SNES and I swear it NAILS the OST's mood/sound but does a way better job with it. This song's definitely going to be one of the album highlights. Song's not done yet but I just had to hype it up because it's really that good.

    As for the rest of you... I've gotten a WIP from Rozovian and... that's it. Come on guys, I've set the deadline so soon because if we don't wrap this project up soon, I've recently learned that there won't be many (or any) open slots for release until very late in the year... there's no need to delay the project, so as long as everyone puts their best foot forward and works towards meeting the final deadline, we can have a timely release without making everyone sit on their finished tracks for half a year. I'll do everything in my power to make that happen, as will Cody, Flexstyle, and TheMaverickk. But we can't do it without every remixer getting done what needs to get done :-)

    So please, for the sake of everyone out there who wants to hear the music, let's make this happen and get it done on time!

  4. Merry Christmas everyone! (Well... sort of. We're a little late on the delivery here but things didn't quite happen as we hoped they would.) We've got some nice little previews here for you, including 2 pieces of promotional artwork by myself, Cody, and TheMaverickk, 5 lightly animated promotional signatures for your personal use, and a quick little audio preview showing 4 tracks that you guys have never heard before. It's not quite as much audio content as we wanted to debut, but that's how things go. We hope you all enjoy what we've got to offer!

    Here goes:

    Remixes by Draconiator/Flexstyle, Blue Magic, Zyko, and Malcos

    Happy holidays everyone, hope you all enjoy!!

  5. Perhaps I'm just being picky, but I took more of an issue with the guitar tone than most of the judges, I felt it was a little bit underwhelming. Still, this song's not without its charm; it channels a pretty neat RHCP vibe, especially with the great bass performance that AMT always seems to excel at. Overall, to me, I feel like this has a lot of room for improvement but it's quite a fun little ditty nonetheless. Great to see this source getting more love too :-D

  6. Not just you, Drew - I also had a problem with the volume level on the mix, it's definitely not easy on the ears. However, that critique aside, this mix is pretty much untouchable. Stunning sequencing, as I've come to expect from virt, in a much more unconventional genre than I'm used to seeing him mix in. That combination of virt's usual goodness with an unusual style that you don't hear on OCR everyday really makes for a memorable remix.

  7. Of all the vocal songs on Serious Monkey Business (and man there were a lot of them) this is probably the most divisive. Admittedly I'm not a death metal fan but I'm not averse to the genre either so I tried to approach this with an open mind, keeping in mind the context from the game and the parody nature of the remix, and ultimately it was really enjoyable. Humorous if you're listening to the lyrics, but a pretty solid remix on its own. Production isn't as good as Neko's newer remixes but it's not without its charm. Everything was well-performed, particularly the vocals from Brandon :nicework: And personally, I actually liked the flute at the end - it was highly unexpected but a welcome changeup.

    Not bad.
