  1. the music is the kind that you'd hear in an epic action movie. I like that style and that's the kind of genre I'd like to remix, I was actually just wondering if anyone else had done it before or if it was even allowed.

    Oh, it's certainly allowed. The problem with a lot of the new, cinematic soundtrack stuff is that (a) it's really complex, (B) it's already heavily arranged, and © there's no way to do it other than by ear, i.e. there usually aren't any easily-accessible MIDI files. A remix of a modern soundtrack song would probably focus in on one single part, and then expand on that a bit. Heck, I think I could do an entire album just from the first track of the Starcraft II OST.

  2. I don't make New Year's resolutions, but I do have a few long-term goals that were already in place.

    - Get paid for scoring a game that gets released (I've been paid for scoring a game that may or may not ever see the light of day, already, haha).

    - Learn to play guitar with some measure of competence.

    - Keep ingesting less sugar and play sports more often.

    - Get my associate's degree and move onto the last two years of college.

    - Obtain necessary equipment for "full band" mobile recording setup, record some local bands, then make a profit.

    Hm, let's see. I'm in the midst of scoring a game that should see release on Steam early next year, and I got my associate's degree and am now at university. I am playing sports with some more frequency, although I do still ingest a lot of sugar.

    I'd say 2.5/5 ain't bad at all.

  3. Wow. I just...wow. This really is Killer Studio Chops all over again, isn't it? We don't want, nor do we need some random schmuck's "teaching." This album is loved by thousands upon thousands of excellent people, and that's good enough for me. I just have nothing else to say to someone who clearly has her proverbial head so far up her derrière that she can see nothing but her own innards. Good day to you, madam.

  4. My only personal gripe about the album is that it's so long it makes gaining familiarity with it as a complete work pretty difficult, and I usually think such a thing is very important. I always focus on how a complete work will be accepted and I'm sure Emu had the same thing in mind perhaps, I just DON'T KNOW IF IT'S EVEN POSSIBLE~!

    I think the key is to take it in disc-sized chunks. Otherwise, it definitely gets super-overwhelming.

    Either that or just take a long roadtrip with nothing but this in your stereo. From experience, that works quite nicely as well. 8-)
