Continue voting. We can't delay on every mix that comes in with a sub-par encoding job for the artist to correct the issue, especially when there's many more mixes coming your way soon

OCR01000 - Super Mario RPG "Booster Tarantino"
djpretzel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Well, all I can recommend doing is trying headphones. You're right in the sense that, from a recording perspective, it doesn't sound like anything else I've done, and isn't very "clean" - but from what I've heard of this type of music, and what I was shooting for, I feel that would have been inappropriate. The idea was to recreate the old spring reverb style, wall-of-sound thing that the 60's and early 70's had going', and you don't do that with pristine, digital quality. The sax is overblown, like you would hear in this style. As for the safety of the source material, and your overall take on the piece - like you say, to each their own. I knew this one would play to very mixed reviews, as it's very different, but that was certainly my intention. The distinct possibility exists that this just isn't a type of music some people will like, no matter what. Bus! is similar in some ways but very different in that the recording is straight - not trying to emulate older mastering or effects. As for the question about gear used: - Drums and organ were Yamaha Motif - Bass was from the Spectrasonics Trilogy VSTi - Guitars and sax were Gigastudio -

Dear DJP and judges, I'd like to submit a remix of the Halo opening theme. The title of the track is "Programmed For War". I'm not sure if I need to reiterate this, but my remixer name is Rayagon, and my e-mail is aaron_matteson@hotmail.com. You can find the remix at. If you save the "Programmed For War" link, that should get you the remix. Thanks. -- Aaron Matteson -- Rayagon

Not extreme enough, not as bad as the other examples, orchestrates more on top than just drums. Honestly, not saying that just because it's McV, it really does do more than NSF+drumloop. UPDATE: Prot's three additions, as well as a Sonic Labyrinth Zone ReMix that's almost certainly a rip of some nature - or far too close to the original - have been added. Please update you votes accordingly. We have a consensus on 1-16, so I will proceed with their removal at this point in time.

Please evaluate the following ReMixes for removal from OCR prior to lockdown, with an emphasis on standards violations but also taking quality issues into account where applicable. Please respond by indicating each mix by number, in sequence, and putting a YES or NO next to each - YES if you think it should be removed, NO if you think it shouldn't. Leave mixes you are uncertain regarding blank for now. I'll be voting on this set as well, so you can use my post as a template. 1. http://remix.overclocked.org/detailmix.php?mixid=OCR00272 Quake_3_Thalk_OC_ReMix.mp3 Reason: Just sound effects, no game music.

Hi djP! bLiNd here. BOOOY have i got something for you!! Here is a description that you can include in the review, if accepted "I noticed not much coverage of F-zero for the SNES. I started out with a little port town remix and it built up to the point where I wanted to remix the ENTIRE SOUNDTRACK! A total of 2 months production time (50-60 hours) was spent making this remix. It was so big I had to split it into 2 parts (to be under the 6 meg limits) All of the tracks are mixed together DJ style so transitions are smooth. Trust me, you guys wont be disappointed." Anyway, i really hope you give me a highly recommended hehe. (SOO MANY HOURS OF WORK IN THIS MIX!!) not sure how you will set it up (2 seperate reviews for part 1 and 2 or both on one page?) but here are the links [baleted] HOPE YOU LIKE IT MAN!! peace -jordan

Harro! It's the Wingless Song title: Godspeed Game: Starfox System: Super Nintendo Original composer: Unknown This is a remix of the Corneria theme and the finale "blueprint" theme from Starfox. I chose these songs specifically because I'm graduating from college very soon, and afterwards, I'll be attending graduate school. I'm nearing the end of one journey, and starting another, and I thought it would be appropriate to pay homage to that little irony in song. Corneria marks the beginning of your adventure, the finale marks the end. I'd like to dedicate this particular piece to all those starting or ending their little adventures. To those courageous few at the genesis or the exodus, I wish you Godspeed. (Special thanks to Israfel, Vigilante, and Beatdrop for their help with this song)

*NO* Super Mario RPG 'Enough Stars Already'

delay-breaker: no Judges comments are consistent with one another. -
*NO* Sailor Moon SuperS Fighters 'Sailin to the Moon'
djpretzel replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
delay-breaker: No Repetition and sub-par samples seem to be the primary criticisms, which I concur with. -
*NO* Super Mario Bros. 'Underground Echoes'
djpretzel replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
delay-breaker: No Appears to be too minimalist, with not enough substance. I concur with the judges comments' above.
