Happy Birthday!

Not quite over... according to the first post: In other words, Me vs Zircon when Darkesword feels like updating EDIT: occurs to me by saying its over, you meant just the fourth round, not the whole compo, my bad

I gotta say well done to aeroZ for a very creative arrangement. Sure it takes a while to get going, but when it does, there is so much crazy gating, sample cutoffs, and sound modulation techniques going on that really shows attention to detail. However, i'm not so sure that this is sitting so well with me. I'm not a fan of the sound design really, the samples (excluding the drums and bass, which seem thin by comparison) all have a kind of fat timbre, without being particularly hard hitting, and the arrangement I find to get a tad boring at times. Not something i'm going to download for myself, but what I will say is that people who like updated chiptunes sounds and a good groove will find something to like here

Ronnie James Dio's output was astonishing - He fronted three of the biggest acts in rock history, sang many classics of heavy metal, had one of the best voices of the style, popularized the devils horns in heavy metal, an icon used by fans of the style religiously, and looking at the interviews he had with people, was a really nice and down to earth guy. R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio. Heavy Metal would not be the same had you not been a part of it.

I've been planning on doing something for the silver surfer soundtrack for a long while now, attempted twice, both were shit tho... one day i'll get it right and hopefully get a posted mix out of it

Any chance of seeing this compo move forward? Its nearly finished now

I'm interested. What sort of style are you looking for composition wise? I compose mostly in electronic and rock, but sometimes do solo piano pieces as well.

Heh I did this source once, great to see it get some ocr lovin' Also, nice source choice, and its great to see it get a rock treatment Pretty cool take it has to be said I'm liking the arrangment... Production could be better tho. First thing that I notice are those drums... man they sound really thin and cheap... sorry but personally thats a big grip for me, I don't think they fit in the soundscape at all... Some meaty guitar work with some nice playing, altho the introduction of that first polysynth you used sounded pretty cheap and didn't work well with the soundscape you had going imo... The lead synth sound was better, but personally, I would have preferred a more warm sound with that lead, it sounds strangly distorted... To conclude on production it sounds like you have good guitars but you really need to work on your backing synths and drums to make them sound more realistic and punchy. I gotta say, while this mix shows promise, I think it could have been alot better. Some may love this anyway, but the production kinda stops me from liking it as much as I should, which is a shame. Still, I'd recommend this for anyone that likes castlevania and/or rock or metal music. Nice first post man, shows some promise.

Haven't posted here in a while... Won't be doing any remixing for this, but I might end up voting. Nice source J64H.

Happy Birthday Man, Keep up the awesomely chippy mixes

There was a time when I would have killed for a dbz game. Now there are so many that you wouldn't know where to start. Not to mention every game has over 9000 characters to choose from that do the exact same thing. Seriously, I think its time to call it a day with dbz games, they were good fun for a while, but its just getting ridiculous. And this comes from a big fan of the show and previous games. Also.... HOT DAMN NEW FACIAL EXPRESSIONS! I'M SO GETTING THIS GAME. Need I say more? Time for the franchise to move on.

Journey - Don't Stop Believin'
