More of a Frixuelos, actually. Well, considering the relative complexity of my source and the fact that I'm TOO SLOW, proly gonna try to translate by ear before the compo. Once my match and his/her source is known, I'll either decide on a direction or I'll spread maple syrup on the walls while shuddering in fear. ;P

Took less than four pages for the epic battle between Lizcakes and Panzards to erase all trace of the actual Compo. Also, having huge teams (as in bracket sized) go against each other could be thrilling. 16 vs 16 all out remixing brawl, or team deathmatch style. Whoever roast the most. Might be a concept to explore and experiment with in future compos.

T'was a little saddening to see him try to redeem the SH serie as whole. No mention of the abomination that was SH HD Collection either. Oh, well. Meanwhile, a single man (Jasper Byrne) made a better Silent Hill game on his own than Konami ever could. And it's in freaking 2D.

Now I feel bad that you've put all this effort into it, because it'll only be used once in the compo. Awesome sig is awesome! Not if you make dubstep/chiptune and have a handful of trendy friends to vote for ya. Great idea. Thanks for putting that list together, it'll save everyone a lot of time I'm sure. Though you can remove the 'Chun Nan Night' theme, since I'll only use the Day version. And to get it on with our top reality show of the week: if I ever faced Akumajo Belmont in a turn-tabling contest... Well, it would mean that everyone in my bracket were bad enough to get beaten by a deaf guy who makes music with a gamepad. So, yeah. See you on the VROOM project Robbie.

Well, looks like it's shaping up to be a "Ben Briggs vs Gario" finale. ;P Seriously though, the roaster is packed full of cool OCR peeps on both sides. I'll be lucky to get even one point, let alone make it past the First Round. Any other noob in there besides me?

Sounds more like a brainwash, but to each his own. Good luck with your future musical endeavors sir.

Now THAT's what I'd call a community-wide event! Though that much would be madness to handle/keep track of.

Why on earth would you do something like that? Even if it didn't pass the panel outright, it could still have passed album eval. That was a pretty interesting and rocking interpretation of the source imho. Not a nice gesture toward Kuolema who's been working to get this tribute together. But that's your call.

If it's worth doing, it's worth doing it right: An awesome birthday to two awesome people.

@dannthr: sir, you've worded this better than I ever could (at my modest level of course). Composing melodies is what gives (gave) me the most enjoyment. Mixing/nitpicking, not so much. Many ideas and inspiration were lost to me in the quest of improving production values. Balancing all these elements while keeping sight of the objective is truly a daunting task. Everyone pretty much has their own journey to experience and summits to climb. There's always gonna be someone who can do better in less time and with less effort. The most important/hardest thing imho is to avoid getting discouraged and loose your passion.

Ian Stocker - Tubeworqs Funk (from Monster Tale original soundtrack) Everyone whith a love for old school games should definitely check this little gem for the DS. It's a love letter to Metroid, Castlevania, Megaman and Wonderboy in Monster Land. All that while featuring an awesome and eclectic soundtrack to boot.

Well, now we know which direction the coin is gonna flip toward. Don't worry, it's fitting nicely now. Thanks for taking the time to do this. @Superior X: list edited with more picks, per your request.

1. Dragon Road/Chun Nan Day (Sonic Unleashed) 2. Underground Zone (Sonic 2 GG) 3. Cool Edge/Holoska Night (Sonic Unleashed) 4. Sky High Zone (Sonic 2 GG) 5. Aqua Lake Zone (Sonic 2 GG) EDIT1: fair enough Mr X. I've added four more tracks for principle. EDIT2: allright Mr X. I've updated the list with the latest picks. @PixelPanic: sig limit is 250px height, but yours is 312px, potentially turning any thread into a gallery. You can put banners side-by-side to save space or simply adjust them in height to fit under the limit. Please be considerate of others looking through this thread. Thanks.

Was gonna post about this, nice timing. Very insightful interviews, especially regarding the overall creative process and team work. Well worth watching if you're interested in how a modern triple-A game score comes to life.

Gario, the direct link is in plain view in the OP: Just click on the link, and save the whole .rar archive to your comp. Done!

^ This. It's gonna be a massacre. And he'll most likely drop some acid on the SH HD Collection too.

John? Will? Anyone? The BC project has been on a hiatus for over 6 months now. Just, please don't let this project die like that.

Not to be confused with: not the real deal. Not sure if n0c is aware of that one. What's the occasion btw? Did OCAD switch to Arecibo or something? O_o

Yep, just like the login system, the various wip sections and other wonky pages. ThaSauce in itself has been in a work-in-progress state since the layout switch. But yeah, this is good news for those who were craving for the VGmix days.

Woah! I'm really glad to have checked this thread despite not being familiar with that game/serie at all. At first this looked like it was gonna be another guitar-hero-style game, but then the course began... A really cool and refreshing concept imho, that seems to be equally fun and challenging. And the music. The music is awesome. Crazy in its own way, but this has literally opened new horizons for me. Alas, I'm not nearly skilled enough to remix any of those songs. But I thank you for sharing your love of this game. I'll definitely be giving AS:LT a shot.

Please try to include source links whenever making requests. It helps a lot, especially for games as obscure as Hagane. Anyway, here's a link to the source (with gameplay): Hagane is a cool mix of Shinobi, Strider and Skyblazer, with an interesting asian-folk influenced soundtrack. Stage1-1, Stage 2-2 and Stage 4-1 have a lot of potential for remixing as well.

Fair enough sir. Not what I was after, but it will do. BS has a point on this one. Star Ocean or even Valkyrie Profile will most likely get you more hits than Baten Kaitos. Also, people will be more inclined to see the end of this journey if they've already worked with you on games they know/love.

Hey Mirb! Fyi these tracks are not the themes of Cid for the respective two FFT games: The correct Cid's themes are: Thunder God Cid's Theme (FFT) and Cid (FFTA2). When you're not sure, a quick search on VGMdb is generally the way to go. PS: once I've made enough progress with my FFXII Cid theme, and if no one has picked them, I'll be more than willing to arrange both.

Yeah, I get where you're coming from. Sometimes the inspiration can get lost in the obsessive pursuit of production values. That's why it's always good to try and have as much fun with the source as one can, before doing anything else. The soundtrack of RagnaCenty has been in loop since yesterday and the 'Boss Battle' theme is crawling its way into my mind ...among the 3000 others songs I want or need to remix. Life's too short! Anyway, if you ever wanna collab on a tune from the game, hit me up. Nos vemos.
