Very immersive! And quite impressive that this is all recorded live. Bring us more!
-
The minor-key melodic line... THIS is where I heard it all this time. I used it in my Chrono Cross / Chrono Trigger mashup and couldn't remember where I pulled it from LMAO
-
Here are some of my recommended tools I've used the most (I'll mark which ones were already mentioned as "*"):
Drums (Libraries) -
Drums (Samples) - I always go back to these
- Platinum Percussion (great for world music)
- BHK D&B Rough Connections Vol. 4, Bladerunner Dread Drum & Bass (for fast music)
- Equipped Music - Smoker's Relight Vol. 1, Vol. 2 (for Downtempo music)
- Black Octopus Leviathan (for hardcore EDM)
- Goldbaby Drums (MPC60 Vol. 1-3, When Alien Drum Robots Attack Vol. 1-2, for general use)
Synths - I always go back to these
- *u-he Zebra2 (for practically ALL of my music honestly)
- *Xfer Records Serum (mostly for dubstep)
Samples -
- 4Front TruePianos (physical model actually)
- *Spectrasonics Omnisphere, Trilian
- ISW PEARL: Concert Grand (truly an amazing Yamaha C7)
- ISW Resonance: Emotional Mallets (mostly for glassy percussion)
- Embertone Friedlander Violin and Blakus Cello (usually as solo instruments)
- OTS Evolution Acoustic Guitar (Steel Strings)
- Neo-Soul Suitcase (realistic electric piano, if I wasn't satisfied with just synthesizing that in Zebra2)
Transitions (Samples) - I always go back to these
Effects -
- u-he Uhbik (mostly "T" [tremolo] and "G" [granular])
- *Guitar Rig
Effects (free or nearly so) -
- Variety of Sounds Density MKIII (compressor), NastyDLA MKII (delay)
- *kiloHearts Essentials (most notably, Ring Modulator and Transient Shaper)
- ISW SNESVerb (SNES reverb emulator, $20)
- digitalfishphones endorphin (compressor)
- *dBlue Glitch v1.3 (free) and v2 ($60)
- Lofi Plus (bitcrusher; hard to find, let me know if you need a link)

Misc (free) - I always go back to these
- s(M)exoscope (spectroscope to check waveform loudness)

Cool to see. I've been using khinsider for video game OSTs myself.
-
Thank you! That was one of my favorites as well. I did a bit of a harmonic trick in the middle where I used the same melody with different chords, and it felt like a new key. Still don't know what to call that technique today. :-)
-
Looking forward to the great work you guys will bring! :-) Honestly, I did feel the same way about the Evaluators' position - this is a great change.
-
Ah, I loved making this! The tradeoffs from one key to another was my personal favorite part to write. I also think that this ReMix more-or-less defines my go-to sound palette today! I didn't look at any other songs for sound design inspiration in this case. I kept the sound design inspiration internal to what made sense for this ReMix.

Like... what?! The track even has a guitar solo near the outro. It must be the weirdest comment I've gotten from an OCR judge. It's a live solo played on the keys, I don't see how that's anything weird or unusual at all.
I think he meant the shift into the solo having a change in tempo made it seem like the solo (regardless of instrument) came out of nowhere. But I understand that it can be read like that as well.

I actually love this style you found for yourself, with a funky synth/guitar palette. Also love to see more Goemon ReMixes on the site. I have one in the pipeline from 2016. :-)

That's what I've always loved about OCR. Y'all care about human interpretation, performance realism, personal touch, and other aspects of music that go underappreciated by the casual listeners out there. At first I thought the perspective towards AI-generated music was because of that philosophy, but I do understand that there is also the bit about unethical training practices.
Good to see OCR still going strong, and I hope to continue seeing real music coming out from real artists, using real production efforts and/or real studio time!

Good stuff! I'm a sucker for hymnals.
Nice work.
Thank you! I made these on a whim at first but it turned out to be a really fun 6 month project.
-
uh oh, is that a challenge? :-)
-
-
This is a neat venture from the orchestral I usually know from ZackParrish, but he still brings that in around the middle which is cool!
-
I never get tired of the man who WillRock us all. What a sick ending!
-
This just says "classic" to me, but still brings modern production value! Despite McVaff losing an "e", he has in fact evolved ?
-
It's cool to hear something in a minor key like this, but in a happy context! Also some tasteful tension around 2:30 in the brass.
-
Tidy package makes sense! I like the bit of toying around with vocal samples, and a lot of things worked pitch-wise here, including the drums and said vocal samples.
-
Some cool distortion elements going on here! Might even call them edgy. ;-)
-
This is an album I just released which arranges music from my local church into acoustic, cinematic, and atmospheric genres! Hope you enjoy. :-)

i got nothing to send in. my last musical productivity burst is 4-5 years back, and it was all originals back then.

That seems like a good thing to me. :-)

What a banger! Some killer, trippy production.

Man, I miss Dave already, but Larry did a great job on the writeup too! This is a ReMix I feel I can share with anyone and they would find something to like about it! So chill... ?
