  1. My good friend and video game music journalist Audun "Akumu" Sorlie and Matthew "Maffew" Gregg of Botchamania are putting together a unique book project documenting the history behind wrestling videogames, beginning with the NES all the way up to today. This project will have never-before-seen interviews with development teams such as AKI (who you might know as the developers of legendary N64 wrestling games such as WCW vs. NWO World Tour,) as well as wrestling superstars new and old. The book will also feature artwork by Minecraft's graphic designer Junkboy. Be sure to show them your support, especially if you're a wrestling fan!

  2. If FF9 was a Christmas morning gift...

    I don't want to be a downer, but having some experience with this sort of thing, I'm going to say that you shouldn't hold your breath for a release of this project before the end of the year. Taking into account the fact that it isn't even done yet, in my experience it takes quite awhile (at least a month) to get an album through evaluation, and that was with a relatively small project. I can only imagine how much time and effort it takes for a project with the size and scope of this one to get through. Never mind that there are other albums in queue for eval and release right now as well...

    Of course, I could be wrong and it'll be out tomorrow. WE'LL SEE.

  3. This month was pretty incredible. The quality of entries was through the roof, and the turnout was massive. I would say most everything is worth listening to, even the stuff toward the bottom. Gotta get it all!

    I think the biggest and best surprise for me though was Stemage and his brother covering fuckin' STUNTS and INDIANAPOLIS 500. I thought I was the only person in the game arrangement scene that ever gave a shit about those games. I had a little bit of a freakout during the listening party, haha.

  4. NOTE: The KNGI server has been hammered due to major storms in France right now, so the site is currently down (you may have noticed that the first OCR song download mirror is also down, for the same reason.) We're working on getting it back up, but in the meantime you can grab Vampire Variations right here: http://areciboradio.com/archives/ngilive/Vampire%20Variations%20-%20Volume%20II%20(MP3).zip

    EDIT: AND we're live! http://kngi.org/vampirevariations/

  5. Nicole Adams asked whether ReMixers can appear on the show. Hell YES! If you wanna come onto the show and talk about what you're working on, games, music, pop culture, and take questions from fans, we definitely want you on! Just post in the thread that you wanna appear on the show, let us know if you have Friday night 9PM Eastern free (subject to change) and we'll invite you on to be a part!

    What about project directors?

  6. Someone told me that these two guys Dave Lloyd and Larry Oji get a lot of tail, so I followed them here in an effort to learn their secrets. True story.

    If you don't like that one, try this: about 13 years ago I searched for vgm mp3s, caught the link to OCR, and have been hanging out here ever since. I even pretend to remix sometimes, too.

    Pretend? As far as I'm concerned, you still have one of the best remixes on the site!

  7. Always loved vg music and got midis from VG music, so I imagine I started from there then quickly found OCR back when Bart Klepka's site and that weird DJ Pretzel comic was still up. Way back when. I used to hang out in the early days of the mIRC channel. 2000-2001. Didn't start using the forums heavily until a few years ago.

    The OverClocked comic is actually still up: http://overclocked.org/

    I think Bart Klepka's site is gone though, sadly.

  8. Back in 2001-2002 (not sure exactly, but it's somewhere in there), I heard about the site from someone linking Jivemaster remixes on the old Sonic the Hedgehog Area 51 message board. I got involved with the forums after Timberwolf started his old IronMix Challenge compo (ironically enough, I was the one who told him about the sites' existence, but he got into the community a bit before I did), and I've been here ever since.
