  1. I think I'll be revising the premise slightly after some back and forth with Argle:

    Having each track be a melody or prominently feature more than one song will be optional. It would be great if it featured elements from other tracks, but it may not always be the best fit to do so.

    For example! The Lavos Battle Themes all work well together, but someone like Lucca doesn't have as many musical themes to work with... But maybe you'll be able to work with Gato's music and put it in there for a bit. A character like Frog could probably be in the middle somewhere, as much of the music around him compliment each other.

    But the character's main theme is always the focus!

    Since this will only have a handful of specialized tracks I'm hesitant about opening it up publicly on this thread right now... but if you feel strongly about an idea you have, please PM me the details and we can discuss it!

    And remember to check out the track list! They're just examples right now, but maybe it'll get some creative juices flowing.

  2. Hey! No stealing my idea about character-based albums! :P

    Seriously though this is a fantastic idea. I'm crap at music but I'd like to help if I can.

    Any tips you learned on the Cid Album would appreciated!

    BTW, I have my IM and Skype names linked to in my profile. I like to speak with people I work with "face to face" whenever I can. If this interests you, feel free to contact me and we can talk ideas!

  3. Hello!

    I’ve had this idea for a Chrono Trigger remix album floating in my head for a while. It’s not a standard “Let’s remix the soundtrack” idea, but something I wanted to get an opinion on and see if anyone is interested in it.

    The Premise!

    Each track will be based on a character theme from Chrono Trigger. The track could contain elements from other songs related to the character, or be a melody / mashup of several songs! The music should reflect their personality in both the songs used, and the style of the song.

    For Example (and keep in mind I’m just throwing out random examples): Robo’s track might consist of elements from Robo’s Theme, The Ruined Factory, Dome 16 and be done in a chiptune style because he’s a computer. Or..

    Frog could be Frog’s Theme, the Castle Theme, Wind Scene, and could sound like renaissance fair music. There’s 7 party members plus a few other characters I think this could work for. (Making this a fairly short, 7 to 10 track album)

    There are a couple things I want to gauge from you all though. First and foremost: I’m not super musically inclined. For all I know this premise just won’t work for many of the songs… or at least not for an entire album. I would love to hear some initial thoughts on the premise.

    Secondly... I think I want a co-director for this one. A couple years ago I attempted running a remix project that fizzled out. I think if I had someone that’s been involved with making music and working on projects it might have gone a little smoother. I still want to organize and give input, but it would be great if someone was there to help me!

    So there we go! If anyone is interested or have thoughts about the project, talk about it here and we’ll see if enough people are into it.

  4. Oh, I misread that you needed artist for individual pictures of Cid, and not album art. I can do that too! (Or both, if you like my Chibi FF characters)

    Dunno which Cid I would draw, but the style would be like one of these:

  5. Right back at the start when Legendaryfrog stepped in to give us his thumbs up, I nearly spoke up and said we should get him involved, the animate a Cid trailer or something, it'd be awesome :razz:

    Sadly he's a busy man but his hand-drawn animated Cids never cease to crack me up:

    Looking forward to seeing what does emerge though :)

    If you guys are still looking for a artist to do album art, I'll throw in my hat into the ring

    Maybe something like this, but with Cids? (There will be so many Cids)

    Also what a difference 10 years makes!

  6. Hey everyone! I just wanted to show of a new flash movie series me and my friends have made called "Wonders of the Universe!" When I tell people about it, I describe it as "Love Boat meets Star Trek." I figured some of you here may dig it. We just released Episode 3, but I also have a link below to the series playlist on YouTube!

    Enjoy!

  7. A few months back I stopped pushing those involved to get WIPs done and other projects began to take up my time. (Such as doing art and scripts for our flash series) Not to mention people have other priorities. Also around the same time, several people dropped out of the project.

    I was considering just dropping the album quietly, but the remaining members still had in a intrest in completing their tracks. So once some progress is made down the road, I can focus on getting it filled up again!

    I have some solid WIPs in, but several people have told me they were having a hard time adapting the old music. I've also lost contact with some of the members. So tracks that are taken might be open once more... I dunno yet! If anyone is interested in taking up a spot, just let me know!
