http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00704/ This was kinda-sorta a remix of a remix, but as previously noted, it was more of an arrangement of an arrangement.

Knights of the Round listening party on 8BitX tonight at 9PM
djpretzel replied to justinj212's topic in General Discussion
This album is being sold for profit on bandcamp and contains Square-Enix music. Can we get confirmation that it is has been properly licensed? I recommend doing this before listening parties in the future, fyi. Sorry to be a wet blanket but this stuff's important... -
Platform for VGM Database/Discussion site
djpretzel replied to metafarion's topic in General Discussion
I think you've got OCR and you've got VGMdb and both of these sites are great existing communities which this type of functionality could and should be built on top of, rather than creating a whole new website. Since you asked. You've also already got http://www.vgmpf.com/Wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page out there, FYI. I appreciate the enthusiasm but you've got no idea how many people come along with ideas like this, post, get feedback, and then never carry them through, or do so in a fashion that really doesn't play out in a way that makes sense. "It takes a village" DOES apply to concepts like what you're discussing, and I think if you've got some concrete ideas you should lay them out as a proposal for integration here or at VGMdb and perhaps something tangible & real can come of it. No one here is going to tell you this is a BAD concept, but I might be the ONLY one here who will give you a pragmatic answer that focuses on actually getting something accomplished. Just my two cents! -
OCR02506 - Final Fantasy VI "Dramatic Dark World"
djpretzel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Insightful analysis! I wasn't intending to express an exact match in terms of complexity, and your point about resolution is accurate - part of what I love about Wagner - but I still feel a general atmospheric kinship, probably due to the pacing more than anything else. I think this piece could definitely have been MORE Wagnerian, and I probably would have appreciated all the more for that, but I also felt like some of the judge comments were asking not for the tonal complexity you mention but for more lively & Classical part-writing. -

Hey man, don't do that. 3-4 people are entitled to share an opinion on the Internet without it being "groupthink". If they hardly ever posted here, had a long-standing bias against Jake, knew/liked each other, and only showed up to chime in on this thread and badmouth this OST, that'd be groupthink. This is just disagreement. Legit groupthink has imo more often occurred (on this site, at least) with people criticizing mixes I've strongly praised than anything else. Anyways, I like it, but I like http://virt.bandcamp.com/album/mighty-milky-way-mighty-flip-champs-ost better - that opening theme is a classic.

The Street Fighter 3 Online Edition Remixes
djpretzel replied to Ringworm128's topic in General Discussion
It's hit-or-miss, bizarrely - some of them are REALLY well done whereas others are quite a bit WTF; it's a difficult soundtrack to work with, imo, since it was (and remains) VERY unique. -

Just started as the chick... I miss Siren's phasewalk, this whole levitate-in-place business is weak, especially when you've got a gun w/ long reload and have to swap out. Any opinions on Zero? PC here... BUT, tried playing w/ keyboard and mouse and it just wasn't happening for me. Switched to 360 gamepad, MUCH better. Sacrilege, perhaps, softcore, perhaps, but more fun. Also it auto-detected settings for my gtx680 as 1280x720 letterboxed, which I thought was... pessimistic. Other than that, great so far - if it ain't broke, why fix it? Love the universe, love the voice acting.

Yes, I'm gonna talk shit about no blu-ray... Yes, I'm gonna talk even MORE shit about not rendering Wii games in 720/1080P since emulation has proven it's quite a good idea... Yes, I'm still gonna buy it
