I'll record guitars for you if you want me to. o_O;
Just send me the sheet music or tab when you're done.
...and I hope there's time to think, because there are so many awesome songs, it's a big dilemma. XD
EDIT: I see Castle of Dhaos was removed from the listing... if it was because nobody was picking it up, I'd be happy to do it. As long as it doesn't count as my one "extra" song.
It was brought to my attention that Castle of the Dhaos would be difficult for even a skilled musician to remix, and if you listen to it, it does sound pretty strange. There will be a song (or possibly two) put in its place, but I'm not sure what yet; I have to talk to a few people about it. *coughGhettoLeeLewiscough*
Also, if you remember the original written rule correctly, those who already have two songs (or more, but that's not the case right now) claimed are exempt from the ability to choose an unlisted song. I did that because I don't believe it'd be fair for one person to have a bunch of songs like that; it'd be much better to change it up a bit so there's an all-around better mix of people (and therefore, styles) on the final project.

You know which track I am doing for my second one
. About the "remix lockdown" situation, considering since I literally JUST joined this, do you think I could have some time to create my WIP. I know the deadline is August, but with the lockdown, I am a bit nervous that someone else will boot me from mine from lack of time to remix. Just wondering. Keep up the nice work guys.I don't think that someone will just step up to you and claim your song. Don't worry too much about it. Having it already claimed by yourself holds off the people
Usa's right; you should be okay.
Master Link: I'm giving your WIP a listen now.

Also, the new "additional track" rule should be going into effect within the next day or two, so if you plan on picking up something not listed, give it some thought and be prepared!
You mean, we have to know which second track we want to remix by that time already? I thought I could take some time to think a bit more about it...
Nah, you'll have time to think, but you never know who might step up and grab the track you want before you have a chance to claim it.

Since we are getting extremely close to almost completely filling this project, I have decided to initiate phase two: The remixing stage. I have also started locking down certain tracks, which means that that the remixer on the track has proven to have a good handle on their ideas and arrangement, and has shown that they have a likely chance of completing their work. The lock also means that the tracks are no longer available for anybody else to pick up (unless the person who currently has the track claimed drops out), for the reasons specified. Good luck to all of you, and I'll be doing my part in keeping up with those involved to ensure that the project reaches completion!

This projects intrigues *sp* me greatly. I am in love with the ToS soundtrack, and with that love comes a devotion!
Kyle sir, I wish to participate in this glorious colaboration! I shall create a "symphonic" remix of Walking on Tethe Alla. I know it sounds orchestrated already, but I shall clean it up and make it sound better than before! I hope you accept my request to participate.
EDIT: For anyone that needs a "source" to create their remix from, PWN3D has every ToS song that you would need. If this link breaks any sort of rule in these forums, mod please "mod" this portion of my post.
Hey Arek,
We would love to have you as part of the project, but unfortunately, it seems you've overlooked a tiny detail; as cool as it would be, we're not covering every single song from both of these games. On the first page, there's a list of specific songs that are available to remix for this project, but "Walking on Tethe'alla" isn't one of them.
However, not all hope is lost quite yet! You'll notice in the first post that there is a certain "rule" that will be going into effect shortly. This rule will allow those who have claimed one song currently on the list to choose another track of their choice (that is not listed) from either game. Luckily for you, a couple songs are still open, so please read and understand the rules on the first page fully, and we'll gladly have you on board.
And yeah, the linking to those kinds of sites is frowned upon.

Let's just all be friends! VGMix and OCRemix, walking hand-in-hand down the road towards the sunset. Lovely.
Heh, I think most of the animosity has been diminished. There's probably still a little bit around, but not enough to make a big impact on the community.
And on that note: Come on, people! We only need 3 more to fill this out, and really get the remixing stage under way.
Also, just a small reminder for everyone: Please review the rules on the front page. Not that anybody is breaking them or anything; there have just been a few new additions to them, such as this:
When your song is finished, you must provide a full, raw .WAV file of it. This will ensure maximum quality for the CD torrent when the project is released. (MP3s will be made available on the website)Thanks!

Usa, I'll see if i can burn your WIP to disc and listen to it tomorrow sometime. I'm often interested in seeing how you come along ^^
And yeah, I know this is a little bit off-topic here, but I really want to release something at VGMix on Sunday, however I don't know what to put forward. >.< I have my first 2 WIPs at VGMix and my DoD entry to choose from; they'll eventually get released over the summer, but I can't decide what to put out there first. Major bummer.
That aside, even though I am in an unstable state to work on music over the summer I've still been able to send the Fighting of the Spirit closing track towards Kyle a few weeks back. And now, I've been able to extract a portion of the recording and render a demo of what I've done to share with the masses.
And yeah... all these prog-like tracks have made it fitting for longer mixes than the usual. But hey, thank goodness virt isn't involved or we'd have a 40-minute rendition of The Law of the Battle.
Wait, wait, wait...Would that be a bad thing?
PS: Release GT! =P

A solo piano track might be a good ending for that part, but that's all up to you.
Hehe, it looks like you have a good handle on where to go with your track, Usa. Keep it up!
-
Ah well, it's comes with the territory, I suppose, considering Motoi Sakuraba's progressive influences. This thing's gonna be HUGE!

and with PriZm planning on a 12 minute orchestral progressive rock piece for Final Destination
Wut? Metal Heads can be such crazy bastards
Yet, we love them for what they do.And... a 4-CD set? Are you sure djp will allow this?
Why wouldn't he?
-
Well, I'll try to lay something down way in advance of the deadline so I can get some feedback, or possibly some collaborative help.
Also, the theme I chose is rather minimalistic, so I have a bit more room. Is the track order set in stone? (also, I am presuming we have a total length for the CD). One thing I'm concerned about is that my track is currently the last on the CD... but let me work on it and see if it's in fact worthy of that position.
Thanks!
The track order is pretty much set, though it may change slightly at any time. With the new rule we put into place earlier, and with PriZm planning on a 12 minute orchestral progressive rock piece for Final Destination, it's looking more and more like this will be a 4-CD set...
, so the length isn't really a factor. Some people mentioned that having Martel's theme as the last track of the Phantasia part will be difficult for the mixer on it, since it's so short and minimalistic. If that turns out to be the case, we can make some adjustments. I think you can handle it, though. -
Hey Arcana,
We're open to having anybody on the project, regardless of experience. Part of the idea behind this project is to help each other, so don't be afraid to contact myself, Lea, or anybody else involved (or even not involved) for their input, opinions, and/or feelings on what you're working on. We will help those with less experience to polish their tracks and hopefully make the songs something the arranger can be proud of when they're finished.
I've also added silas to the list. Welcome!
-
I am retarded.
I blame KyleJCrb.
That's alright. I'm already blamed for everything else.

I like your rules addition very much, maybe I will pick up another song after finishing my first one. But it leaves one question open. If someome who is not yet listed wants to do a remix for the project and everything is taken already, what happens then?
As I explained in the first post of this thread, more than one person is able to claim a song. The song that ultimately makes it onto the project, out of the multiple remixes of the same track, will be decided on by myself and Lea. If our opinions either conflict or we agree that both of the remixes are good, we will put forth a voting procedure in which the people who are involved with the project will decide which version of the song will be on the final product (the voting is the likely scenario). In the case of a person who has claimed both a track currently listed and an alternate unlisted track going up against someone else; the alternate track will still be put on the project, regardless of the outcome of the coordinator/voter decision on the listed track.
I hope that makes sense. I just woke up.
EDIT: YES! Welcome to the project, Gray!
EDIT 2: Teliskopic; try clicking mine again. I just changed the link.

Between both games, we'd be looking at almost 200 tracks. Even just focusing on one game would be too much, I think.
-
Alright, let's try something here. ON-THE-FLY RULE CREATION!
Lea and I just discussed this, and I think it's something that could make the people who want to do a track not listed on the project right now happy. What we've come up with is this: If you have already claimed or are planning to claim ONE song (those who currently have two tracks selected are exempt from this) for this project, then, once the track list is completely filled and all of the current tracks are claimed, we will allow you to choose ONE extra song not currently listed to remix for the project. If you decide that you can't do the extra track, it will be removed completely, with no chance of getting picked up by anybody else. This rule will go not go into effect until all of the main tracks listed are claimed by at least one person; reason being that we want to get what currently have filled up first, before we start adding things. Hopefully this might convince some of you to try and get some other people on board to fill up the list. Also, you must guarantee that you will ABSOLUTELY finish both of the tracks.
We're not trying to declare open season on the entire soundtracks of both of these games. This is just a compromise we have decided to make for those who wanted to do something that's not currently listed. One of our goals with this project is to still keep it maintainable and reasonable. We don't want to get overly ambitious.
Is this fair?
-
I appreciate your suggestions, GLL, and as much as I would like to include the entire soundtracks from both of these games, there is already a huge amount of songs on the project as it is, and trying to cover the entire soundtracks would make it nigh unmanagable, and this project would surely fail. Not to mention, we're trying to cover TWO games, because both Lea and I feel that the two are connected enough to warrant having a project covering both of them. I hope you understand what we're trying to do here.
Also, I think you misunderstand what we mean by not releasing finished works. The rule is in place to prevent the release of finished songs before the project is complete. The reason for this is, we would like keep a semblance of quality control among this project, and also keep an element of surprise for when the project is ultimately released. The rule doesn't mean never release your project songs anywhere else, ever; it means that, in the interest of keeping the project fresh and interesting when its released, and also maintaining some form of quality control, to not release your finished songs until the project is completed.

Just a heads-up of what I'm working on. I actually have more work done but this is a short clip.
I was actually wondering how you'd make Sheena's theme work as a DnB track. Looks like you're well on your way to doing it. Great work so far.
-
Just a heads-up for everyone: If you have your contact information posted here or at VGMix, I have added you to my buddy list, so I can keep in touch with you on your progress. MSN users, take note; If you get a notification from jckyle5@hotmail.com, that's me.
Please let me know what your contact information is if you don't have it posted here, or let me know if you'd like to keep all contact limited to PMs. Thanks!
-
I'm trying my best not to download any of the songs, since I want to wait until the project is out, but...Grrr...Must hold back...
-
Same project? Right... does that mean there's no remix war?
On the tracklisting it says Luiza Carvalho is looking for a collab partner for Fatalize. Does anyone know what kind of help he's looking for, exactly? Composition partner, recording, etc.?
That'd be a she, and I think she has it handled right now. One person stepped up and offered to help her, but it's not quite official yet. We'll see where that goes.

Oh yeah, ToS is going to kick ToP in the ass! Remix wars, WOO!!
