I earned nothing of the sort. As a pioneer I was made an example of =P
Until I saw this thread again, I had completely forgotten about that comparison.
Sad though, considering he got jail time for pot and lost everything.
Japan's even more strict than America on scandal like that, so here's to being careful! (read: I don't do drugs)

Wow, it's been 7 years.
I just got through some of this thread and man what a flash back.
Moggie, Endblink, and even Eccles giving me hell back in '02, oh man.

Almost forgot, thanks to anyone here who picked up KAT-TUN's new album.
Number 1 on the charts in Japan with over 220,000 sales so far.
Thanks guys!

Sup Jovette, we miss you at Anime Remix!
So this is what you've been up to since you were in that visual kei band, eh? This is pretty ace, I like it a whole lot better than that last band you were in [the name escapes me at the moment], I'm just not into the whole visual kei thing.
Hey OC, how you been?
Yeah, I've been living here in Japan for about a year now. I'm signed to an entertainment agency, so it keeps me pretty busy.
I got a mix coming out for the Seiken Densetsu 3 Project, buuut that's about it for remixes these days.
My band back in the day was called MARS. Yeah that was a while ago >__>
Anways, take it easy man

Wow, this thread is not what I expected it to be!
That's a pretty awesome song there, DJ Crono. I had no idea that DJ Crono was doing commercial JPop songs! I've always loved your OC ReMixes, so I will definitely pick this up in opening week to try to boost its sales for you (and I've never even really listened to KAT-TUN much before
).Keep up the good work!
Aahhh....DJ Crono, there's a name I haven't used in a looong time
I always go by my real name these days, but it's nostalgic to hear it again, heh.
If you buy the album it's much appreciated of course. Thank you.
And thanks to everyone else for the kind words.
BTW, kudos to Andrew for the HEROES bit; cool beans man.

Hi all,
This is for anyone who is interested in JPOP.
Japan's #1 boy band, KAT-TUN, is releasing their new album "Break the Records - by you & for you -" this month on the 29th.
I wrote the bonus track for this album. My song is entitled "MOON", it's track 16. It's a heavy metal / classic Japanese shamisen song.
You can hear the "leaked" version of my song here (if you're interested)

And for those interested in purchasing the album itself, here are some helpful links. It's on pre-order now.

I just wanted to announce to anyone who's interested that I have reinstated my Japanese rock band, MARS. You can view the page here
An official page and more songs are coming. If you're a myspace member, shoot me line, I always try to write back.
Alright, thanks in advance.

Just wish I could understand that one line... One life... something something... all on a bet / one chance, don't you fear and not forget..." Aargh! What is that lyric?
I figure if enough of us ask for it, we'll eventually get the lyrics.
One life, win or lose it's all on a bet
One Chance, don't show and do not forget.
That's all.

To avoid repeating myself, please scroll up a few lines, or simply click THIS to read my previous comments concerning this remix.
I was putting together another compilation CD of game theme remixes, and came across DJ Crono's "Simon's Symphony" once again. And I thought to myself... wouldn't that be a great song to include on the CD? ...if only that damned amateur rapping wasn't messing the song up tremendously! So I've solved that problem, and abridged the remix. In this shortened (but much improved) remix, the lyrics shall no longer disturb the quite decent instrumental. Enjoy the download below.
Castlevania II - (Simon's Symphony by DJ Crono [abridged by DJ Jake]).mp3
Ok, you knew I'd have to respond to this. Nice work on the transitions, it's as if I never sang in it at all, while still keeping the integrity of the song. Oh wait a minute, you could've just asked me for the instrumental, I have it right here. In fact, Moggie asked me for, it and has it too. I'm sorry you went through all that, I hope it wasn't too much trouble. I'm actually honored though, really.

Here you go man.

That's the Anime Remix site, hosted by DJCarbunk1e, who also has mixes here.

Haha...i bet Crono is REALLY good with the ladies. I mean...im sure his music causes ears to have friggin orgasms...i know it happens with me!!!
Everytime i load up my OCR playlist and have listened to the 4 mixes by crono at least 5 times each...then i load up the site! Always checking if maybe he has anything new? I CRAVE for some new music by him...>_< its juuuusssttt sooooo goooooooood!!
Fuck, i think im gonna force my parents to buy me some keyboards and other equipment!
And btw...what exactly do you use to make your Purely Genius Orgasmic Remixes?
Maybe if i wanna get started i can get a good idea if i know what you use...sure i can always check the Remixing 101 section but id much rather want to know what the GOD OF REMIXES uses...
Thanx bro...it would be sweet if u replied to this...cause i really wanna know
Peace

*checks DJ Crono's list of remixes again*
P.S. DAMMIT WHERES HIS NEW MIXES?
jk...hopefully there'll be some new ones out soon eh! Its prob lots of hard work so u need to take ur time but ill be here, waiting patiently (ya rite ) Peace bro!
Well. What I use is a Roland XP-80 Keytboard, and for my programs, I use Cakewalk, and some samples from various Ejay programs I've found. But mostly, it's the roland, because Ejay's are only good for sfx and little voices and stuff. Other than that, you can't use them when creating melodies and bass notes. And, for anyone who wonders when am I gonna sumit new mixes (if anyone does), I have no idea. I just moved to L.A. aaaaand, I'm so busy living and in this new relationship and getting my modeling career and music career off the ground, that, well, I have a lot of new original songs, just not really remixes. Actually, that's not entirely. I may submit my Zelda remix. Maybe not, I don't know. I'm also collabing with prophetic too on some stuff. I don't know when that's gonna hit off though. Ok then, talk to you guys later.

What are you talking about? If you mean my other songs, they're at Anime Remix, or somewhere on OCR.
-
Hey man, great job. I really respect those who implament lyrics into their works. Good singing with it, and nice use of "flangers" in your voice. I believe that's a "tremolo" flanger no? Great music to boot, awesome midsection break with the synths. It gives me so many ideas for remixing, very inspiring, really. I look forward to more remixes with vocals from you.

Well I was just wondering, why can't you post them DJ Crono?
Just a thought
Thanks
Don't need to. Check the "Simon's Symphony" page again. It's there now
Thanks though~ -
And where may we see these lyrics? In DJP's review?
*Goes to check*
Be Patient. They'll be there when DJP puts them there. Don't worry, I gave them to him. It's up to him when he actually posts them
-
This just in~
I just gave djp the lyrics to the song, so everyone can see I what I was "really" saying
-
The Intro is too long man, I was waiting for 1 min just to the main rapping to come in! when is it going to end!?
This is a issue in which I'd like to discuss. When I make my songs, I follow a sort of, "guide", that I use more times than not. I have a long intro to get the listener involved with what's actually being remixed, see? Then, after he/she's dived into the game-music, I add the "DJ Crono" touch: Vocals, extras, and other stuff. Vocals always come late in most my songs. I don't always follow this guide, but I have with most of my songs on OCR so far =P. I thought I'd shed some light on this issue, since many people have been asking me about it. Thanks~

Wait... did I just hear DJ Crono say golden shower? I now feel dirty.
You guys are funny. "Golden Shower" = Being showered by GOLD/MONEY! Not human excretion, DAMN!
You guys make me wonder about you sometimes. Kinda scary alot of you people actually think I'd put that in my song, unless you were playing around too. But I don't know about some of you....... -
OH MY GOD IT SUCKED. It's one of THE worst remixes I have EVER heard. You just HAD to go and remix a Castlevania track and fux0r it up...didn't ya?
Sorry if I seem extremely negative but...hearing some of my favorite music from one of my all-time favorite game series being BUTCHERED without the proverbial reach-around...was MORE THAN I COULD STAND.
In the future...PLEASE remember that Castlevania is a ROCKER'S game. Keep it away from the RAP. Good GODS!
(Yes. It's one of my first posts. I FINALLY had a reason to bitch.)
ummmm.....okay? -
what about the deeper vocals? they sound like someone else, you too?
Oh, it depends. Sometimes it's me with a pitch-lowering, and sometimes it's a sample like KDD. I'd have to know which specific part/phrase you mean.
-
Ah yes, the DJ Crono thing. Yeah, I'm working on songs right now that don't utilize my "DJ CRONO" shout =P
No way, man! It's all about the shoutout! Do eet!
Are you serious?! You like it? I got the impression nobody like it...... 
weird, I was wrong. I did for fun and props, but I was starting to think it was annoying people or something. Thanks -
The dj crono thing though, its fine in this song, but i still think you should do a song or two without it. (my opinion)
Ah yes, the DJ Crono thing. Yeah, I'm working on songs right now that don't utilize my "DJ CRONO" shout =P
BTW, Are you the one rapping?Big fan,
Vortex
Indeed I am. Check out djpretzel's review.

Yo,
and if you wanna battle, PM me with the date and time.
Biatch!
Hmmmmm
, I don't think so AE, I'm fine without 8 Mile'ing. Thanks for the comments though. -
Well, that's my take on it, and trust me when I say, Mr. Crono that it is nothing against you, but I know you're better than this. -SM
Thank you. I'm happy you think I'm better than this last song, as I'm sure I am. I feel myself constantly improving. This song was a dip in "panning" SysteManiac. Most of the instruments I panned from one side to the next, then middled them. The piano, dulcimer, guitar (real), synth, and other various sounds. I put just as much heart into this song as the other three, let me asure you. I'm not out here making a worse song to dissapoint people. I make every song with precision and care, never a "first-try", trust me. I have many people go over it, and carefully analyze the song b4 even submitting it. I do however enjoy your view, and am grateful people will speak their mind, not just say "hot air" all the time. Thanks again everyone.

PS. Look for newest mix at Anime Remix SOON!! This means you enblink
Japanese Dancers
in General Discussion

Egu-Splosion is a great dance unit. I'm friends with a couple of the members. Did some shows together a while back in Osaka and Tokyo.
If you want some great dancers here in Japan to look up, try
Isopp and O-HASHI for serious locking and breaking and beatboxing.
プリンケツ プリンケツ and Panic Crew are more funny dance units like Egu-Splosion.
