That streets of rage source though!  

Amazing guitar work right from the start, the shift from straight-up metal to acoustic was unexpected but extremely well done. You don't often hear electric solo's over acoustic backing but this works very, very well. When the metal does come back it doesn't kick the door in and destroy your house; instead it gradually insinuates itself into your living-room, drinking tea and commenting on the weather before melting your face off with some superbly executed shreddage. I may have lost my thread a little here... Anyway, this is balls to the wall awesome and will be finding a home on my MP3 player. [6/5]

That's fine.  Good luck to all the participants this round, I'm looking forward to listening to the songs!

On a second note I will be doing the stream today anyways.  I know we have some veterans in this compo but maybe some of the newer guys would be interested in watching.  I'll be working on a new track but I will be answering production questions mostly.  Well that is, the little I know about production.  But what little I know I would like to share it, so tune in if you want!.  If that's ok with you I will post an update when the stream goes up in an hour or two.

thats actually a kindof good idea for every round. having the video link right there in the post make it much more convenient to get an idea of what this round is all about.

This popped up in my Facebook feed

Sorry, Sir_NutS, looks like you're out of luck.  Too bad, I would have been interested in watching a stream, too (though probably just the archive).  The Alucard pairings are:
Alucard Bracket
Gario: Warakiya Village, 1476 vs. PlanarianHugger: Plant Castle, 1591 HoboKa: Burning Town, 1792 vs. Yami: Underground Caverns, 1797 theshaggyfreak: Munitions Factory, 1917 vs. Aleix Ramon: Master's Keep, 1944 It's actually completely a coincidence that they turned out to be in the same chronological order I originally listed them in.  That probably won't happen for the other brackets.
Remember, the deadline is exactly two weeks from now, January 27 at noon PST.  I know that may seem like an odd time, but it's what works with my own schedule.  Please don't procrastinate!  I won't download the remixes until the deadline, so if you send me a link and then want to improve your mix, just update it in place (and make sure downloading is enabled!  I see that mistake a lot on SoundCloud).
Please keep the voting guidelines in mind when working on your mix.  Work on integrating the two themes smoothly first, then worry about production and other elements.

YES! Then we can all do WWE-style promo's before each round to psych-out our opponents!
 

Ziggy's not dead, he just went home.

Oh I dig this so hard! As with some of the other guys here I went back and listened to the original; it's an awesome track but it seriously isn't a patch on this remix. Your definitely-not-dubstep wubwub is sublime (dublime!) and the beat is as smooth as lubed-up silk. Your usage of the vocal samples works a lot better in your track than the original and I love the constantly evolving arrangement. Excellent work! [5/5]

That quote is a tweet that originated on Twitter. Here's the original tweet (also we have Twitter embedding? since when?)
This hit me quite hard, so I'd like to share a picture by Yoshitaka Amano (longtime Final Fantasy character artist and logo artist) that is the most David Bowie picture to ever David Bowie.

I think you should rename this competition to "CASTLEMANIA!!"

I'll admit that I wasn't really a fan, but I respect the influence he had on so many musicians across a wide range of genres all the same. RIP, Ziggy Stardust.

No one's mentioned Blade Runner because Esperado is asking for animated movies.

Incorrect, wrong, false. Batman: The Animated Series that came before Batman Beyond is the best Batman thing ever. Though Beyond is super awesome amazing as well.

Same here. I was super slack when it came to PRC's last year and and want to get much more involved in this season!

Figured that since the Youtube link had the intro picture-title on it, I'd use that for the round's picture.  It's the simple things in life

*EDIT* Just seen that I should have PM'd Odai instead. My bad!

Dont even know the source, but ill try to slap something together. Part of me wants to give it a serious go at competing in every PRC round, afterall, practice is how you improve. 
 

I was also super relieved to see the 2 week period. 2 weeks allows me to take a day here and there for some recovery from work stress without feeling guilty over not remixing.

Get your sigs here people: LINK -- And re-up the sigs elsewhere

Sources and brackets are finished and in the first post.  Please review to make sure your selection is correct and that the timing works for you.
Also please note the area title assigned to your source.  You'll be using that when you name your remix submission files.
Edit: Missed this earlier, somehow:
Yeah, that was before I started frequenting these forums, but I did notice that from reading the archives.  That's why I'm doing a point-based losers' bracket, so that if someone is too fatigued to continue, their dropping out won't be a free pass for their opponent--and if they want to jump back in later on, they can.  That's also why I'm calling the winner of the winners' bracket a tournament victor even if they lose the final round (thus effectively making that round optional for them), but the winner of the losers' bracket has a shot at earning co-winner.
Also, since I'd like to make an OCR-I out of this for Castlevania's 30th anniversary, I want to give people who drop out more chances to create something they like well enough to include.
