  1. Wow this is great stuff! How haven't there been more comments on this? It is one of my new favorite remixes ever. It's just so catchy!
  2. update time! Here it is. The only thing I really changed was the techno beginning. The synths were replaced, more or less, with a sawtooth and a square wave. Of course, the sour notes Dr. Rod mentioned became even more grating. So I cut off the notes early, and now it sounds very bleepy and bloopy. Also, I made a bit of a better ending. This may be the version I submit to OCR, maybe. Thoughts? PS: Dr. Rod, I use ModPlug Tracker to make this. Edit: I guess it's not the version I submit to OCR, 'cause it got instantly rejected. So I guess I'd better get serious about this whole thing.
  3. Before I registered on these forums, when I would read threads, then it would show posts chronologically from top to bottom, and from the first page to the last. Ever since I registered, it's been reversed, and now the earliest post is at the bottom of the last page, with the latest post being at the top of the first page. Is there any way to change it back to the way it was before? Like, an option I'm overlooking? I prefer it the old way.
  4. Alrighty then, time for an update. Got some feedback from Geoffrey Taucer and GSlicer in #ocrwip, and made a few changes. Clickity. Things I done changed: -The percussion at the beginning was changed to sound more like Ping Island's percussion, so it sounds simpler. (more simple?) -Added reverb. -Added panning in the orchestra section. -Made a transition between the first and second parts, not much, just faded out the first part and faded in the second. -Added a little interlude near the end with piccolos and clarinets. Again, to make it sound like Ping Island more so. -Different ending. Things I still have to do: -Some of the samples are bugging me. Specifically, the trombone sample towards the end and the synths in the first section. -Still a better ending is needed. -The interlude section I spoked of above feels like it's missing something. And that's it. Again, feedback, comments, etcetera is much appreciated.
  5. ahahahaahahahahahahhahahah this is just amazing. I usually don't listen to remixes unless I am familiar with the source. The problem with that, though, is that I miss out on glorious little gems like this one. Makke is awesome.
  6. If you're right about it being Michael, then Walt probably didn't show up because he learned about what he did to get them off the island (killing Ana-Lucia and Libby and such.) As for Walt, I doubt that was actually him. Here's MY crazy ridiculous theory about it all. Jacob and The Smoke Monster are not one and the same, but they are indeed closely related. Jacob can shift shapes and stuff, to communicate with people. This would explain Christian, Kate's horse, Walt, Yemi, and all other similar stuff. Jacob usually takes the form of someone the person knows or knew. So that way, Locke won't be all "Wait, who are you?" and go crazy and set fire to him, he'll think it's Walt. Wouldn't want to set fire to Walt. Same thing with Yemi and Eko. JacobYemi lured Eko into the jungle to have Smokey unleash hell. I agree about Jack's dad, he was probably just drunk. When he said "upstairs" he probably meant Heaven or something. And, yeah. Charlie's death made no sense, kind of. I wonder why he didn't go through the window or run out the door before everyone's favorite Immortal Cycloptic Russian Other Guy, Mikhail, blew up the window. I burst out laughing when Hurley came in with the van. I forgot about those vans! I figured Hurley would stumble across something AMAZING, like Jacob's Secret Lair, and the camera would pan around to his face and he would say "Woah" or "Dude". But this works too. FINALLY! I hated the flash "backs" until I saw the last one. I mean, bla bla bla, Jack sure was pathetic, come on let's get back to the island grrrrrrrrr. Now the flashforwards seem so much better now. I also hope that all flashbacks will be replaced by flashforwards, because there's really not much left to tell in them anymore. Although it could get confusing (as if it isn't now...)
  7. Hello, OC Remix! I've been lurking around OCR for a while, downloading a few songs here and there. Some while ago I downloaded Modplug Tracker and have been messing around with it for a while. I came out with this remix of Egg Utopia, from Sonic Advance 2. I personally found this game to be very "meh", but the music was awesome nonetheless. Anyways... Click here to download it. The idea behind this was to make it sound like "Ping Island/Lightning Strike" from the soundtrack to The Life Aquatic. Hence the amazingly creative name of "Ping Utopia/Egg Strike". The song starts out with a simple techno-ey ditty, and there's a pause, and it starts to play in some strings and flutes and such, and by the end we have a full-blown orchestra playing the song. Of course, since it's a WIP, there are some problems I am aware of, like: -Some parts are too loud or too soft. Noticeably, the techno-ey part at the start, and near the end of the song. -It's short and it ends abruptly. -The segue between the techno and the orchestra-ey part is pretty much non-existant. It felt normal in the original "Ping Island", but here it just feels forced. Anyways. Comments, criticisms, feedback, are all greatly appreciated.
