  1. CHz is the shit, and does a metric *&^!-ton of work on OCR behind the scenes, and we love him, and you should too! Happy Birthday!
  2. RE: Beta testers, not precisely, but what we do need is folks that, when we go live, try to avoid kneejerk reactions, help us track any issues, etc. - it's easier to get feedback on a production site from a lot of people and fix it as we go, and that's the plan. I keep wanting to fix more things and add more stuff but at this point I need to keep reminding myself that we just need to get it out there. Ultimately, the features & content we add after the fact are more important than the facelift, but you have to start somewhere.
  3. On this point, I'm quite happy to be proven wrong - glad you're keeping an open mind!
  4. OC ReMix Presents Unsung Heroes! January 24, 2012 Contact: press@ocremix.org FAIRFAX, VA... OverClocked ReMix today released its 32nd arrangement album, Unsung Heroes. It features fifteen tracks from fourteen artists, arranging songs from video games that have been widely overlooked, but are well-loved by those who have discovered them. Directed by Andrew “OA” Luers with assistant directors Deia “DragonAvenger” Vengen and Stevo “Level 99” Bortz, Unsung Heroes is available for free download at http://unsung.ocremix.org. The album champions the unsung heroes of role-playing games throughout the years, many of which have great merit but have been overshadowed by bigger names and franchises. With tracks featuring games like Secret of Evermore, Persona 3, and Ys IV: Dawn of Ys, there’s something for everyone. It was made by fans, for fans, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by original composers, developers or publishers; all original compositions are copyright their respective owners. Director Andrew Luers comments, "The original concept was brought forth to me by Shaun “Avaris” Wallace back when we were still working on Echoes of Betrayal, Light of Redemption. We both agreed that while it is great to work with many well-known and often mixed themes - which are so loved for good reason - there should be no reason not to extend our hands into those games that have been overlooked for so long, but have genuinely beautiful themes as well. I'm proud of the work that these gentlemen and ladies have presented in this album, and hope that others will be able to appreciate the beauty of these tracks as well." Fourteen artists collaborated on musical tributes to many overlooked titles, including: The 7th Saga Secret of Evermore Saga Frontier 2 Willow Faxanadu Legacy of the Wizard Lufia & The Fortress of Doom Luminous Arc The Lord of the Rings: Volume 1 Bahamut Lagoon Ghouls'n Ghosts Breath of Fire II Ys IV: Dawn of Ys Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Suikoden About OverClocked ReMix Founded in 1999, OverClocked ReMix is an organization dedicated to the appreciation and promotion of video game music as an art form.

  5. Please proceed; clearly they didn't get the message the first time. This pisses me off just as much, if not more, but what really aggravates me is that any time I spend dealing with it is time better served working on the site & releasing more music... which they'll then turn around and try to profit from. I think perhaps we should propose a three strikes rule to them - this is the second time our free content has surfaced on their site, for sale. If it happens again, or if they fail to remove it this time, some sort of petition may be in order. I don't want to inadvertently publicize their "service," though...
  6. What we really need, rather than merging game entries, is a way of establishing game equivalence, such that a mix of one game always counts as a mix of the other, if the soundtrack is identical. The mixcount for Red should be the same as the mixcount for Blue, right? And it isn't, and that seems to be the real problem, in my mind...
  7. Note: As per the standards, a primary game does need to be assigned at some point if the mix progresses beyond evaluation.
