I'd be all over this too.

Ugh, I would love to do this but my whole month is spoken for.

I just want to point out that the Switch, with Joycons removed, is the same size as a New 3ds XL. 

I'm gonna get it because one really great looking game on launch is literally all you could possibly expect without being a whiny pissbaby

I think you forgot about Splatoon 2.

My track is done, but I'm spending a day or two to take a look at mixing and possibly considering rewriting a short section. Just another day or two!

Just be mediocre at all of your instruments. Seems to work for me.

Update: A minor arm injury stopped me from finishing my track today, but I'm hoping it'll clear up in time for me to finish it up next week.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!
Back then I was using a Frankenstein kit of various samples from Superior Drummer 2, more specifically, Cymbals from Metal Foundry, Snare and kick from Metal Machine, and toms and extra snare from the stock Avatar kit.

What drum library is that? I need it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if OCR were to monetize the channel, wouldn't all of the videos have ads?

Another tidbit I'd add: If you pitch a perfectly reasonable rate, and they freak out about it, move on. Don't waste your time negotiating, at least not that much. If a game developer is not willing to pay a reasonable price for music, then they're not willing to get good music, which usually means they're not likely to care about conducting good business, hiring good artists or designers, or -- simply put -- releasing a good game.
Also, if it's some first-time indie dev, and they're short on cash, remember that not all payment has to be monetary or up-front. You could request to retain full distribution rights to the soundtrack and have them put an obvious link on the game's main website to the soundtrack on Bandcamp (kind of a risk, but less so if you're confident in your music's quality). You could ask for services from their developers to help code and design your website. You could even work out some sort of word-of-mouth networking endorsement, and have the developer spread the word to other game developers about your services and their positive experience working with you. There are a lot of good things you could ask for besides money.
Like Nabeel said, always get something out of it. It doesn't always have to be just money, but it should always further your goals.

Question to the bosses; will there be recruitment for the currently open tracks and/or any that open up from people leaving? And if so will it follow the same rules as previously stated (non-posted remixers needing to audition and whatnot)?
@DusK; if you're still looking for a singer to fill this role I can heartily recommend @Stahalamora. She's provided vocals for some of the tracks on the Terranigma album and she's awesome
 

I doubt I'll be able to make the second check-in, as I'm between PC builds right now and my FFVIII remix has shifted to the top of my priority list. However, I should have the track finished by the beginning of October, at which point I'll probably rapid-fire revisions based on feedback until the 30th.

Ok, but what's the bad news?


Honestly, I was considering pulling my track from the project just because of how much of a jackass Strader was being (not that it was in any way out of character for him).

Now I'll actually do my best to finish it.

Opting in. Who knows, maybe the hate on ads will draw away the hate on my vocal mixes.
