  1. Fasting teaches self control. Or at least, that's what I view as the practical benefit for doing it. There's also the spiritual part, but you don't have to indulge in that end of the spectrum if you don't want to.

    Athletes fast all the time, in order to cleanse their systems and whatnot, so I don't think it's unhealthy. Try it if you want to, you might enjoy it, but if you do try it, don't give up the second you get hunger pangs because you weren't serious about it anyway. Go the full day, if you do decide to do it.

  2. Oh man, I totally remember this from the wip forum. I loved it then, and I love it now, but I definitely remember it being more loud and booming at certain parts (Namely the intro when the piano comes in). If that means anything.

    Either way it's still awesome, and if my opinion means anything to anyone (Which I doubt it does :<), go download it now. It's nothing fancy, but at the same time it's sexy musical goodness.

  3. Now, for all you folks who chimed in and haven't posted in a blue moon - or ever - before this mix, how about throwing some positive comments to a few of the other 1,800+ mixes maybe you DID enjoy, past & present?

    I would, but I have nothing constructive to say. My posts would probably look like spam, since most of them would be like "This one's awesome" and that's it. I'll try anyway though.

    Also isn't this thread done yet? Not that I'm expecting it to be locked or anything, but I think everything that could've been said has been stated. So stop whining, both sides.

  4. I think the main problem is that we all took it really seriously.

    Yeah. I was stupid and came into this half-expecting Tupac, and found it being worse than Lil Wayne. You can't really blame me, when you've got guys like PrototypeRaptor and WillRock making remixes in genres that rival their commercial counterparts, but the bottomline is that every so often the music of someone's groin gets posted for the lolz and there's always bound to be some people who don't get it.

    that being said the oneups are awesome and if for some odd reason you haven't listened to their other stuff, go do it now

    /thread

  5. So uhh, to the people who are acting like the folks who dislike this song are flipping out about it, do you wanna quote some posts of people getting totally offended by the lyrical content?

    Because most of the "This sucks" posts so far have been pretty polite and mostly objective (My post excluded but I'm not much of a musician anyway so I have no idea what a 'production' is).

    It's all about taste, really. That being said, don't mock those of us who don't like this when none of us have said anything totally wild and crazy. Not that it's hurtin mah feelings or anything, but we need some mutual respect goin on up in this joint.

  6. I want to echo everything Josh Whelchel said. I agree entirely.

    See as someone who's got like, 5 posts, I'm confused if this is supposed to be a inside joke or something. I read the lyrics before I listened, and they didn't seem so bad (I listen to a lot of rap so I'm not some super "pure" person) so I gave it a listen and the lyrics just didn't flow, and the song didn't catch my attention or anything. Basically, if you were to replace the sound and tone of the singers voices and replaced them with a synth or something, this song wouldn't have been any good, in my opinion.

    I dunno. See I'm typing this in fear of looking like an idiot because I feel like I'm missing the point entirely or something.

    Edit: I gave it a second listen, and arrangement wise it's not as bad as I thought it was the first time. I still think it's...not very good though, no offense.

  7. perhaps I should revise the challenge to 'anyone who hasn't played Sonic and also actually likes good video games' but then again that would make it almost impossible to win now wouldn't it

    i like sonic and shadow of the colossus and other fine sophisticated pieces of art

  8. When I was a kid I played Sonic 1 and 2 and I hated them because the graphics 'sucked' and the gameplay was too slow (The fastest thing alive just wasn't fast enough). Five some years later I bought the Mega Collection and I played through all 3 and loved them equally.

  9. Hey, I'm RDX. I mix and arrange myself a little, however I've had to use freaking Mixcraft to do my songs, so it's been kind of tedious (Since I own a MIDI keyboard and it doesn't even support it) and the sound quality has been terrible.

    However I plan on getting FL Studio one of these days. I'd say I'm only half decent at this point, but that'll change with time, I guess. I'm a little clueless when it comes to technicalities though, and music is just a hobby for me, it's not much of a passion, so I don't really know how far I'll get.

    Instead of babbling on and on like other people seem to have, I'll just stop there. I don't know how active I'll be, I guess it depends on whether or not I decide to continue putting time and effort in becoming a better musician. So I'll see you around...maybe.

    Oh, and I have an awesome voice, or so I've been told. I've never seriously tried singing. So if I ever find a way of singing I'll let you know...maybe.

    That's a lot of maybes.
