I've been interested in listening to more j-pop lately. I've heard a few things I like, but I'm having trouble finding good stuff. Last FM is hit and miss. Anyone have any suggestions of stuff I should listen to?
-
Phillock is reeeeeally good, guys. It'll be good to have him on board.
-
Annnnnnd, I'm back. After a long delay, it looks like we'll finally be able to get rolling on this art book stuff. Stay tuned.

This.
Several others, too. MGS3 was pretty intense.
==SPOILER ALERT==
The ending of Wind Waker was pretty emotional, with the King of Hyrule, lingering on to drown with his ruined kingdom. Everything leading up to it was great, too--especially Ganondorf's monologue just before the final battle. Hit me pretty hard.

what what what holy crap
Looking forward to seeing all that artwork. Are they all going to have the watercolory goodness of Calebyte's cover, or will they show moody somewhat melancholy peaceful reflective nostalgia in different ways? That cover's pretty great.
I had a similar idea for Essence of Lime, but didn't think anyone would be willing to do that much work. Then again, this project has fewer tracks.
Still working out all the kinks. Much of the art will be along those same lines though. Most of my own pieces will be watercolory. The other artists will obviously put their own creative spin on things, but all the works will be cohesive. There will be one illustration to accompany each track.
Glad you like the cover

I picked this game up yesterday, and it's awesome. I'm on world 3 now, and loving it. It definitely stands up to the best Mario platformers, and the multiplayer mode is awesome.
Also, funny story. I preordered at GameStop, and had the following conversation with a clerk there:
CLERK: Can I help you?
ME: Hi, I have a preorder on Super Mario Bros.
CLERK: What's that?
ME: Huh?
CLERK: What's that?
ME: ...
True story. My second bizarre experience at GameStop in under a month.

Here it is guys! This is the concept for the album cover. It's done all in water color. I'm going for murky, moody, and melancholy, in keeping with the overall theme of the project. It's also done mostly in blues, since deep blues tend to be associated with a feeling of sadness and brooding. I chose Mt. Tamaranch as the subject, since it's probably the most recognizable image from Link's Awakening.
Lurking in the background, hidden behind the type, is the Hylian crest, to further associate the image with Zelda. It's near-invisibility testifies to Link's separation from Hyrule on Koholint.
I'll probably end up painting more of these. This was a fairly quick exercise. I may also try to make the title look more Zelda-ish. The Zelda font isn't very good for long titles, so for now Garamound will do.

Oh goodness. I started listening to this again the other day. This album is a hallmark of quality, from start to finish. There are so many stand out tracks on this album, that it's essentially futile to point out each one. The whole album is great! I love it. I'm totally stoked about the upcoming DKC2 album.

Pretty good stuff, I'm enjoying it thoroughly.

Hey guys, I've been working on a rough version of the album cover recently. I'll probably post it in the next few days, so look out!

It surprises me that there is not a remix of the Guardia Castle theme on OC Remix. It's one of my favorite tracks from Chrono Trigger.
Here's a link to the original track:
I'm not a mixer. If anyone has any desire at all to tackle this, that would be awesome.

Hey everyone!
After contacting Prophet, I've been brought on to this project as the graphic designer / web designer / illustrator! Basically, I'll be responsible for promotional artwork and the like. I'll be also be in charge of the website design when the time comes to build it.
Right now I'm working on some concept art based on Link's Awakening. I've thought about putting together a little PDF art book to release with the album, but we'll see what happens.
From here on out, if you have any questions or input on art or design, shoot me a PM.
I also just finished a sig for those involved with the project:
Enjoy!
Keep your head up for some more stuff in the next few weeks.

I hadn't listened to this one much until I stumbled over it today. Wow. I've really been enjoying it. It's peppy, happy, and unexpected. I like it a lot.

Anybody here a U2 fan? I personally really like this new song. It's nice to see a break from the traditional U2 sound. Any thoughts?
-
I'm fan. I like the variety.
-
I listen to this remix a lot. It's melancholy, euphoric, and nostalgic simultaneously. Brilliant work. I'd love to hear more like these. I think you made the Title Theme and Zelda's Lullaby meld together perfectly. I love it. So relaxing...

Hi everyone! I'm Calebyte.
I'm not a musician. I'm just a dude who loves video games, and consequently, video game music. I've really enjoyed what I've heard here, and I just wanted to join and show my support. Anyway, good to be here.
Suggest to me some good J-pop, please.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys! Perfume was mostly all I had listened to before, and I really enjoy them. I'll be sure to check all these out!
