Er... wow, sorry for the necro, but I just saw this while doing a search on AlexBrandon's username. It has some pretty awesome music on it, yet people haven't said anything about it. Did we all miss this post when he made it? Check it out, people - I think this deserves a listen from us Unreal/Deus Ex fans.

Alas, that is something I can't help with (save for popping in there from time to time myself and giving my thoughts). It's a shame people don't go there more often, 'cause there are some real juicy bits that run through there, from time to time (Alexander Brandon's posted in there, one of the best AVGN renditions I've heard in a while that was there, and recently an awesome spaghetti western style track running through there). Also, one giant THANK YOU to the community! Believe me, you all have been just as helpful for me as I try to be for everyone else, and it's greatly appreciated. It's been great being here with all of you - hopefully I can give you all continued support effectively as a mod

To the man who agreed to wander MAGfest with my drunk ass in the wee hours of the morning, I salute you. Happy birthday, man.

By 'shine' I meant 'brightness'... sorry for the ambiguous language; I had a brain malfunction. The track isn't bright enough to represent a realistic ambiance. I agree that just a twist of the knob will get the desired effect real quick - it's not a hard fix. I was just pointing it out there . Yeah, they removed the submission size limit entirely. For the sake of space and such, though, there is now a time limit, though to be honest I can't see that being really challenged for a very long time (and with the previous rules that limit was implied, anyway). It's a very awesome and welcome change.

That's not as cheap as .

I will still say that you should allow more of the high end through your mix, as it still sounds lacking in that area for the sake of a realistic shine. I think the instruments are less mechanical than before, though, which is awesome. However, before you submit this, please note that the quality standard has changes - Mp3s need to be at 192kbps or higher (up to 256kbps), or a VBR that is close to that. In your case I would go for 256kbps, since it's a pretty short track. It kind of snuck in the submission standards, there, but DjP should be making an official announcement about it any day now - best to make the fix while it's still easy to do. I would also find a better video to link to the source, if possible - it's hard to hear the whole thing on that vid, since it's broken up by the gameplay. Yeah, you can submit it now and it'll probably be accepted, barring the Mp3 fix, though I would personally prefer some more high end EQ somewhere in the track to fill that space.

Aww yeah, they got their own website, now. http://extra-credits.net/ I think that'll be easy enough for most of us to remember off the top of our heads. Also, bumpity bump de bump bump.

I think that's why they're making their private projects public. I'm glad Prophecy is taking this as well as he is, but for everyone else what else can you expect them to do other than make the announcement now like they have? Damage has already been done - rather than deriding them on it why not appreciate that it's not going to happen again? I think the staff saw this as a problem and agree with you all, for the most part, hence the announcement. There's nothing that they can do to change the past, though, so it'd be more constructive to focus on damage control rather than assaulting the staff for all this.

I have all day tomorrow to get this done. You'll have my update tomorrow, in good time.

Way better, I agree. Still no bass, I agree. Yeah, keep making this better. This is sexy.

For OCR, the source is there enough, though if you're not comfortable bringing the source out in the beginning would be a good idea. If you counted the Empirial song as another source (forgot the name) then I'd say there was definitely enough source. This is really good as it is, and humanizing it would put it over the bar easily, but have you considered finding someone to perform it for you? That would make for an incredible mix.

I hear a lot of Wood Man mixed into this. It's kind of hard to say if that's the only source you use in there, but I definitely hear some Wood Man mixed in it.

Dem oranges.

Yeah, to be perfectly honest if you humanize and send this in it'll be accepted. This is an incredible arrangement with a lot of subtlety, and I loved every second of it.

Yeah, Magic man is final. I will also add (as you'd surely be aware) that the area is insane. Holy shit. As for Shadow, look up Silver Surfer NES on youtube. It's legendarily difficult, hence the fuss here. With that, MAG is over. I think it's time to get back to WCRG talk again.

Drunk post (Luke agrees with me). Also, MAGfest.

... Holy shit, you got my respect for that, man.

Whether or not he can doesn't matter - it's whether or not he will... which he won't. So yeah... um, MAGFEST!!!1!!

I started posting in the past few years. Since I'm awesome I'd have to say that's pretty significant. Also, MAGfest and Killer Studio Chops. ... Yeah, that ought to cacth you up, there.

Djmokram why the fuck aren't you at MAGfest. Were all here without you to make the crowd awesomer. And yeah, something about SOPA and killer studio chops and shit. Important post right.here.

what the fuck Ph and Tensei are here why aren't you inviting me you bitches seriously

You noob, posting your music when everyone is at MAG. Shame on you.

Wow, I actually like the glitchy-gated flute in the beginning, there. Kind of unexpected, yet awesome. I've got to say, this is actually pretty sweet, overall, for what it is. I want to hear someone bring in some serious hip hop vocals over this track, as it just sounds like it's missing from the track, as of yet. Unfortunately, there's a little lack of direction, at the moment. You keep playing variations of the same section over and over, with little pattern (save for the repetitive source) to keep it cohesive. It's... funny, in that it's both too repetitive and too varied all at once. Use a bit more of the source, and try to make your texture changes a bit more consistent. I really like this, though. Nice work.
