That's just wrong, dude.

Would you believe Xenogears? I can also safely say that I would never have played Cheetahmen II if it weren't for the music in general, with AnSo's mix getting a huge nod in particular...

This might sound weird, but I think of all the regulars here, past and present, as sort of an extended family. I don't take credit for the amazing talent on OCR - and no one's better at trance than Jordan - but I do like to take a little credit for getting people together, etc. So whenever something like this happens, I literally lose sleep over it. I don't pray, but my thoughts and best wishes are with Jordan and his family, along with all the hope I have to give that he'll get better and keep schooling all of us with his mixes.

Don't get too excited... FIRST we need to upgrade to 3.7, then vb actually have to release the updated blog software. And of course, no ETA for that, since they use the duke nukem forever school of software estimation (but with much better results)...

Unfortunately, it's a big state, and a lot of us (myself and Vinnie, at least) are in NoVa, which is a pretty long drive from Roanoke

Yeah, these are what required the display:inline-block to fix, which was fine with ff2 but caused ff3/safari to barf. Fix one thing, break another... Still looking for a fix for IE7, for these pages.

This is a difference between FF3 and FF2... I need to upgrade at least one of my machines to 3 and troubleshoot. If anyone knows offhand what attribute/css would make the boxes stretch even in FF3, let me know. UPDATED: display:inline-block, which was added to fix certain pages in IE7, seems to be the culprit. I've upgraded to FF3 myself, removed this attribute, and pages are rendering as intended. Whether you appreciate "as intended" or not is a different story, but at least it's how it's supposed to be. This change may also have fixed things for Safari users... don't know, can't tell, don't wanna install.

OC ReMix albums have been better integrated into the site, and are now available as separate links on game, organization, and composer pages: http://www.ocremix.org/game/super-metroid-snes/ http://www.ocremix.org/composer/id/100/dave-wise/ http://www.ocremix.org/organization/id/2/ In addition, album pages have been revised to allow for extended references (we'll add VGMDB links when they finalize their URLs like they did for artists) and also composers are listed separately, with icons: http://www.ocremix.org/album/id/7/chrono-trigger-chrono-symphonic/ Unrelated to albums, composer detail pages now have a "Connections" block, where you can see some of the composers who've been credited with that composer on games, along with counts for games and mixes. More of a "fun" feature than serious data since we've only got games for which there are mixes, but still neat imo: http://www.ocremix.org/composer/id/135/noriko-matsueda/ Upcoming changes will include upgrading the forums to vB 3.7 and (finally) revising ReMixer detail pages. For the latter, I plan to get feedback from (go figure!) ReMixers themselves. So, nothing huge, but these little touches add up over time and hopefully are appreciated by some!

I'm going to unstick this... my general sense is that enough people would be interested (including me - I'd be far more likely to post here than on my personal site) that it'd be worthwhile. vBulletin just announced some significant changes/updates to their blog product. I'm going to hold out and wait to see if they fixed the many things that are broken with it. If they do, that's probably what we'll use. If not, I'm thinking Wordpress-mu with a bridge of some sort.

Thanks aubrey - appreciated!

July is donate to OCR month.... AGAIN!!!

Jake's ad is actually far more relevant than what a lot of Google throws our way Once again, hate to beat a dead horse, but we don't run pop-ups or autoplay audio/video ads on the site, and ad VIEWS alone, even without clicks, DO help, so we'd appreciate your disabling adblock for this site. -dl

ReMixer pseudonyms are not allowed, nor are alt forum accounts. If you wanted to keep the pieces easily identifiable, you could try to make their mix titles different or something like that, but part of the mission of this site includes genre agnosticism and encouraging listeners to experience all genres, not compartmentalize them...

BGC got a new badass mic + BGC can sing and play guitar = BGC owes OCR a hot vocal mix.

In the (excellent) Cape Fear remake w/ DeNiro one WAS used to strangle someone. Just FYI.

Am I wrong, or - given the placement of the adjacent wall - isn't Jesus WATCHING Friends??!!? Very nice drums.

If you've got the source files you could always collab with someone... perhaps they could make the arrangement more liberal and the end result could be submitted.
