Here's to one of the most diversely talented up-and-comers on OCR who's already got a handful of amazing remixes, several game scores, and an entire opera under his belt, among other things. Mad props to you on all you've accomplished by such a young age, here's hoping for much more awesomeness in the future! Hope your day is/was awesome!

Aww yeah I'm so in for this again. Last year I was one of two to reach the coveted 200 reviews mark and I aim to meet it again this year. So glad you guys brought this up again!
-
No worries, I checked with Liontamer and he said you're fine on the actual project release

So, uhh, the deadline's passed. Thanks to Malcos, Peach, Chernabogue, and Blue Magic for the updates over the past two days. The rest of you make me sad I've cut two artists and are currently working on replacing them. If you have been cut then you need to get me a WIP with significantly more progress before I find someone to replace your track, which I'll be getting on tomorrow. The rest of you who haven't finished your songs yet, you've got until February 11th, 2011 (my birthday) to finish your songs. I will be very sad if you don't get them done, because I like the way the tracklist looks right now and I don't want to have to cut songs outright. That would suck. So please, get your songs into me ASAP so we don't have to push far past the deadline. Now for the cool stuff! I've updated the tracklist to reflect the current status, as well as give you guys a sneak preview of some of the awesome track names that artists have come up with *ogles over "The Submap Emissary* Also, we've got a brand new batch of animated promo sig banners coming up in the next 48 hours, we're in the process of pimping them out with as much cool stuff as we can fit now Stay tuned for that. So, thanks to the few of you who turned something in today. I genuinely appreciate it

How bout them flutes? Did you ever figure out how you're gonna handle those or if anyone's going to perform them live?
-
Alright, crunch time is here! Just wanted to let you know that we'll be leaking some cool stuff at the end of today after this deadline is all said and done, and I'll announce the date of the final deadline as well. So, let's get things started! I've already got 2 almost-finished WIPs from Peach and Malcos, and I'm hoping to hear many more by the end of the day. Get to it!

Don't fret, he sent me a message on FB. Here, I'll copy/paste it for you: "Hey, I'm probably going to be a little late on getting you the next version of Draconiator's and my song, since I've been sick all weekend and my ears are full o' gunk and useless for mixing with. Just FYI. The next version you hear will most likely be a mostly-complete take, though." You're fine The rest of you though... *shakes fist* Harjawaldar's finally wrapped up his Boss Boogie remix for the project, making it the 27th song finished overall. It's definitely the shortest song on the project but it wraps up the short source tune into a very traditional metal remix that's going to be one-of-a-kind on the project. In addition, I've also gotten confirmation from several bonus remixers that their songs are finished, so congrats to Danton F. and Acolyte on getting their songs done too!

Vampire Variations - We're almost done!
Emunator replied to Chernabogue's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
Been a while since I've seen any updates, how's this project coming along? -
Oh hey, is that sum full tracklist that I see? I think it is! Welcome Archangel to the project, he'll be tackling Jungle Jitter SNES, which I've been trying for the longest time to find someone for. His WIP is awesome though and totally does justice to the original, so this will hopefully mark the end of a very, very long journey searching for someone suitable to remix that source. With that, the tracklist is 100% full. Some songs may open up when the deadline rolls around, but other than artist swaps, you may very well be looking at something very close to final in terms of track listings. Be amazed
-
Sweeet Can't wait to hear it, shoot me and/or Stevo a PM and we'll get you some critiques.
-
NO! NEVER! Just kidding, you know I love you. I just can't look like a softy in front of all these people who still think I'm gonna kick their ass if they don't meet my deadline. You're in the clear friend! P.S.: To anyone aside from AnSo reading this, I'm going to kick your ass if you don't meet my deadline! >

So, I meant to announce this a while ago, but Brandon's finally finished with his 3rd and last song! We can now officially say that reggae has some representation on the album, and it's a very short-but-sweet interpretation of a nearly-unmixable source. Congratulations on not having to deal with me anymore! The rest of you... I've gotten a few WIP updates here and there, and I know a LOT of you have said you're working on your song behind the scenes but haven't shown me any updates, so... plan on getting me something by the deadline. For those of you I still don't hear from by the 1st, your tracks will be marked as late and they'll be open to the public for competition again. I like the current state of our artist list so please don't make me remove you For the rest of you... lemme just say that December is going to be a huge month for the project. We've got some really kickass animated signatures brewing, and we may or may not be releasing some more preview material later in the month Stay tuned, we've got some good stuff in store!

That's a good idea, but it really makes me wish there was an easier way to "tag" songs with iTunes instead of going in and editing the Comments field, which is oftentimes taken up with other information anyway, so I wouldn't have to automatically update a bunch of different genre-based playlists every time I get a new song in my library.

mod-review Phoenix Wright piano medley
Emunator replied to Vidilian's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
I'm still feeling like the e-piano is a bit too loud most of the time, though the sounds are pretty well chosen. Arrangement tends to feel a little plodding, like there's not really much of a structure/sense of direction to it. I personally don't mind, but it's something the judges will probably knock you for. The performance isn't the best either, I'm noticing a lot of mistimed notes throughout the song, most noticeably during the Turnabout Sisters section, where the theme just feels pretty sloppy Last bit of critique, you're getting a LOT of background buzzing feedback from something in the setup... unfortunately, due to how you use silence in your arrangement (which is a pretty well-executed technique) it really feels like a bit of a dealbreaker To sum it up, some very cool takes on certain themes, great soundscape/sound choices, and overall an interesting and mostly enjoyable listen, but I'm not really feeling like this would fare well on the judge's panel. Sorry. -
... *slow clap*

AAAAWEEEEESSOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEE!! This project is awesome. I love every artist involved for what they've done with the sources. Before I listened to the album, I was familiar with, but not attached to any of the themes, but now I feel like I get an instant rush of nostalgia from them all whenever I hear 'em Trust me, this will be worth any wait you have to endure before the album comes out. Everyone involved did an amazing job! Godspeed, little project!
-
Damn ergo, you're getting around Even though I'm not a fan of the original game, I'm very excited for this remix project because it seems like you guys have handled your QC very well, especially considering how long this has been going on. Good luck
-
Sorry to hear bro Will you at least be able to look back over your old project file and copy/paste MIDI/automation data into your backed up project file? It sounds like if it's just the sound output on the corrupted file was borked, you could pretty easily recreate what you had... I hope All of you that have been kicking it into gear and working on your songs lately, thank you! You all rock
-
Mine and Ergo's song is recorded He did an amazing job with the arrangement that some of you might have heard on R:TS a while back (oops.) Totally breathed some new life into it. We might be adding sfx before we call it final, but other than that, this cake is baked Or something...

finished Mario Golf - Putts' Theme Electro/Dance
Emunator replied to DarkSim's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Love it No major complaints here, submit this and it should be an easy pass, even in light of the fact that it's pretty repetitive, you do enough to keep things varied and interesting. My only suggestion is to do something a bit more groovin' with the drums during the last repetition of the melody before the outro, the drumloop feels a bit boring compared to the rest of the song. Otherwise, solid production, cool adaptation of a neat theme... this is very slick However, I have to warn you that if you refuse to name your song "Fore on the Floor," then this song will have no chance whatsoever of passing the judges panel and this remix will be terrible as a result -
Use the Compilation feature, just highlight all of your remixes, edit the info and, under the Options tab, there should be a field that says "Part of Compilation?" Select yes, and now all of your remixes will be neatly sorted as a compilation, so you can view them all in one place. As for the album name though, I thought the default album tag was "http://www.ocremix.org" for everything downloaded from the site?

mod-review Earthbound - Lost Underworld (Electr-oh! Remix)
Emunator replied to Doni's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Pretty tight remix here. It might be a little too close to the original, I think if this went to the judges panel it would probably boil down to a judgment call. On the one hand, it's pretty close to the source melodies and you don't vary it up a ton, but there's certainly plenty of adjustments that give this song its own unique character. It definitely feels Earthbound-y. I'm not really sure if this would pass, I'd have to think a while on it. However, I really enjoyed your take on the theme and think you should try submitting anyway if you feel like, just to see what happens. Good luck and thanks for sharing a cool mix! -
So, I guess I should have done this a while ago, but I'd like to formally welcome Draconiator to the project. He's been with us for a long time, having contributed a bonus remix of Rocket Run, but now he's on board the album for reals with a collaboration with Flexstyle, who now joins Theophany and Zyko in the exclusive "4 remix club" They're gonna be tackling a straight-up trance remix of Frosty Frolics that I'm just falling in love with. As for the rest of you, THE DEADLINE IS IN 3 WEEKS! Where are you guys at? I haven't been getting very many status updates at all, and there's many of you who still don't have a checkmark by your name. I would really like to make it through this next deadline without having to cut anybody from the project, but come 2011 we're going to be really making a push to finish the project off, so if you want to be on the album, you NEED to get busy if you haven't already! We've got some things happening behind the scenes that will hopefully manifest in ways that we can share with you soon, in addition to what's going on with the music side of things. Until we're ready to share, keep up the activity! We like to see that people are still excited for the project, it keeps us moving! Cheers!
