  1. I didn't even noticed that both remixes were for the same source, LOL. I'll see if I can change that. As for the director, no problem!

  2. If you are a good guitarist, I am looking for guitar solos for a particular track. Please contact me with examples, thanks.
  3. Argh, the upload failed then. I'll try to send it to you asap.

  4. I think Brawl had a "Twilight Princess" approach of all characters in terms of design.
  5. Everything has been done! I'm waiting for Stevo's data before making another rendering. :)

  6. No problem, I'll handle everything!

  7. I can do it, I'm planning to change a few things.

  8. What will be the address of the BC album? bionic.ocremix.org, or bc.ocremix.org, or something like that?

  9. Trailer is going quite well. I'll try to continue working on it today. :)

  10. Yo Brindia Strader! :D (lame pun is lame lol)

  11. I'm French (male), but I don't know if I can fit the job, as my vocals are mostly heavy metal ones. I still can give it a try though, it may end up very well.
  12. LOL give me a break I liked the bonus tracks (and the SnappleMan collab tracks were included in my review).
  13. Finally ended my second listen of B&R and here are my thoughts: DISC 1 1. Prologue: Awesome intro. bustatunez's orch work is top, and makes my own orch mixes sound like crap (LOL). Great way to introduce the album 2. Now is the Winter: Very "fresh" and cool. Love the jazzy/mystrious vibe. 3. Remeber: Same as above, less the jazzy side, but still a very peaceful arrangement. 4. Smoke and Clouds: Doesn't work for me, I skipped it after 1 minute. Laura Intravia's voice is great, but the arrangement sounds too random for me (not used to that style), sorry. Perhaps the weakest track of the whole project (sorry if I sound rude, prod is still top). 5. Polemos (and the whole prog medley): Yeah, baby, that's proggy and rockin'. Loving the different solos and the way to arrange the track. Nice perf from 3 rockin' dudes. 6. Tastes Like Victory: Woah, genius track. I love the vocals here and the arrangement. Very cool to listen to. 7. Castles in the Sand: There's a bit of Hans Zimmer here. Nice orchestra arrangement, epic wthout too much "embellishment". 8. Ascension of a Madman: Epic. I was wishing for an orch Kefka mix, and this is VERY good, especially the "mad" part in the middle. 9. La Montaña: Very intresting way to remix the source, samples and performance are top notch. Vamos a ballar! 10. On the Run: Very nice, but not as much as the Fanfare mix. Still fresh and cool. 11. Fistful of Nickels: I love the arrangement. Great perf, great prod. Mr. Morricone would be proud. 12. Camp Kefka: Yes, nice blend of metal, orch, and ethnic stuff. Sounds a bit like MGS music, so it's good! 13. Stone Drum: Not bad, the lo-fi aspect of the track is a bit strange. Cool instruments. 14. Toxic: Not bad too, chip + dubstep/bass thing is interesting, not much to say. 15. De Nuit: David Bergeaud? This track sounds like Ratchet&Clank's soundtrack. I like it! 16. Gobble, Snarf, Snap: Hahaha, I like this arrangement, very interesting take on the source. XPRT seems to know his stuff. 17. Savage Triumph: Some very good part, some were a bit boring. I like the high energy in this track. DISC 2 1. Wild Child Ballad: Great samples/perf. A very fresh track to begin the second album. 2. river of snie waves: Piano + chip? Worked at some times, but some parts were not sounding very good IMO. 3. Idle City Street: Ah, so calm, so nice. Great and emotional performance here. Perfect mix. 4. Courage, Failure, Rosebud: Mix was a bit generic, but still cool to listen to. Not a big fan of all the effects on the voice, but it worked quite well. 5. Bad Octopus: Awesome arrangement, and great mix of hard rock and various instruments (loving the winds here!) 6. Train Suplex: Very nice mix, very aggressive synths, but drums were lacking a bit of energy IMO. Still cool! 7. The Will Be Blood: Not a big fan of the electro style, but I guess it fits the source. 8. Terra's Resolve: The real orchestra sounds soooo good. I love the take on the over-remixed source, well done! 9. A Simple Flip: Cool guitar performance, I like the inclusion of other instruments at the end + voices. Very cool mix. 10. Electro de Chocobo: Some parts were a bit out of place, but the prod is excellent. 11. Reverie: Quite like the first tracks of the album, I like the atmospheric ambience. Very calm and cool. 12. Slam Davis: Coooooool brass, the rest was interesting but sometimes not working and a bit out of place IMO. 13. Fiddlesticks Rag: Haha, yes, very good take on the source! I like it and the perf was great! 14. The Nightmare Oath: Excellent arrangement and performance! I like it. Perfect intro for... 15. The Impresario: the best track of the project. Excellent on all aspects, loving the Queen tribute, those 9 minutes are never boring. This track is excellent. 16. Till We Meet Again: Very good end for the Opera part. A good opportunity to breathe after 2/3 tracks with high energy. 17. Full Speed Ahead: Excellent production and mix, solos are crazy! Excellent way to end the album. DISC 3 1. Flava de Chocobo: I love J. Morse's ethnic/jazz arrangements. This one is very cool. 2. Johnny's Funk: Perhaps a tiny bit too glitchy for me, but all that funk is awesome. Great track. 3. Ghestalhian Sonata: Great piano solo. Very calm and fresh. 4. The Megiddo Brigade: Haha, yes! I love the source. djp, you're awesome. I love ths mix. The 1'30 part is awesome. 5. Nothing like Flying: Mix missed a bit of bass. Classic chip remix, not much to say here. 6. Aggressive Blue Magic: Like above, nice! A bit too much glitchy at some points. 7. Mogstradamus: WTF lol (but still great). Still has a good prod! 8. Pure Essence: I like José's works, and this track was interesting too. Percussion is a bit repetitive however. 9. Illusionary: Nice blend of orch + electro, without too much embellishment. Nice. 10. Black Genesis: Not bad, but sometimes things went a bit awry. Still a nice track. 11. Meditations: Loving the electro + orch/ethnic blend. Sounds awesome! 12. Evisceration: Energy!! Nice mix, some effects were a bit out of place, but I liked it overall. 13. A Tranquil Rest: Awesome take on the short track. I love the feeling of the track. Great job and performance. 14. Elegy: Great orch arrangement, without too much embellishment - simple but great. Derek and Jeremy never disappoint! 15. Event Horizon: I liked the track overall. Very "OCR sounding" 16. Blackjack: OMG this track is great! The ambiance and style are genius. Awesome disc end! DISC 4 1. A Glimmer of Hope: Fresh track. Has a very cool (and epic - especially at the end) feeling and great to listen to. 2. Go-go Gadget: Gogo! I like the take on this one too! I wish it had more instruments but sounds cool! 3. Katabasis: Same than for the Game Over mix. Awesome track. 4. 13th Floor: Quite the same than for Evisceration, both track have a great energy and are good! 5. The Narshemellow: Very cool to listen to, interesting take on the original. As always, samples and performance are perfect! XPRT wins! 6. The Endless Stair: Wow, I like this. Quite particular, but reminds me of the Shinra remix from VotL which was great too. 7. Trauermarsch: Another very good orch suite from Derek/Jeremy. Perfect to build the tension before the end! 8. Demon, FIend, Goddess: Everyone was waiting to see how/who would take on Dancing Mad, and it's a very interesting take, more swingy/funky than expected. Bravo to Sixto and zircon for this interesting and very good arrangement! 9. Ending Suite: Wow, long, long, long, but gooooooood! Minimalist but very nice suite for the end. Amazing performances! 10. Prelude: Nice ending track that concludes perfectly the whole project! I liked it, even if it was a bit long IMO. DISC 5 1-4. Omen: See above. 5. Following Forgotten: Nice atmosphere. I wish it had more melody in it, or at least some other instruments. Still nice to listen to! 6. Royal Blood: Wow, that arrangment is great. Loving the calm/peaceful feeling, and the other instruments (besides the piano) are well included. 7. Bass of the Returners: The intro was looong, but it was worth waiting. I like the energy in this, bLiNd doesn't disappoint! 8. Dark Blue Substance: Quite similar to the previous track, it was a bit glitchier. Fun lil' track. 9. Savage Dance: Aw yeah, ethnic arrangment. Loving it. Some synths were out of place though IMO. 10. The 6th Kingdom: Yeah, rockin', dude! Blending so much genres is crazy, but it works somehow! I like it, nice energy! 11. Slam Shuffle: Not a fan of the genre, but the source is so funky that the remix sounds very interesting. A bit repetitive in the end. 12. Jidooran Rhapsody: Very nice performance, a lot of emotion. Not too much to say, the music speaks by itself. 13. Strange World: Like McVaffe's track, but the blend of the ethnic perc + synths is more okay here. Nice mix. 14. Umaro's New Groove: I like the minimalist approach! It seems Archangel had a lot of fun here! I really enjoyed it!
  14. Haha, great! Can't wait for it

  15. I don't have a midi file of this track, unfortunately, sorry.

  16. "Divine Bloodlines" is already claimed. The example track you linked needs work, but if you want to give a try to "Red Dawn", go for it, I'll see what we can do.
