  1. I can just imagine this song being played at a high-end hotel in the lobby, or as a song for a fashion commercial. Very nice intro, and the build-up is spectacular. My only complaint would be that the ending seemed to die on me. After this upbeat and boom-tastic mix is grooving for about 4 minutes, the ending just sort of fades away. of course, once you update the sax, I'm sure it will be amazing.

    Edit: after hearing it a second time, this time with headphones, I think the ending is better than I thought, but still needs a new sax part and a better fadeout.

  2. I like the tune, and it definitely has a spooky, but fun feel. Unfortunately, the track itself was not as powerful as it could be.

    The xylophones are nice, but I would agree with ShadowBlade that new instruments or tones are in order.

    If you are considering a longer mix, I would work on the previously mentioned items before considering length.

  3. Holy crap. I remember playing this game non-stop for a period of one month when I was 9. Unfortunately, some grease from one of those liquid CD holders destroyed my copy of the game.

    When I have the right equipment, I'll try to make a mix of this tune or other MegaRace tracks (probably NewSan).

  4. Hello OCR,

    I'm searching the forums for some suggestions, and maybe it's just me, but I'm getting nowhere fast. I might as well give some details about my situation.

    I'm looking for a few things, the first being a cheap and/or free software to make music in the first place. I have a six month old Macbook Pro, that currently has Garageband and a program called Soundtrack Pro (it came with my dad's package of Final Cut Studio, but I have yet to touch it).

    I don't know how to play instruments (although I am a skilled singer), but I do know the basics of music theory. I MAY (depending on my budget) buy a mini keyboard and learn to play sounds on my own, but first I need some good software.

    I've seen a few sources of digital instruments (I think the post below mine has some), but any recommendations are welcome.

    I really look forward to being an involved member of OCR, but I have to start somewhere.

    Thanks in advance. :)

  5. What's up? My name is Evan, but I go by the signature "Nonamer" (or Nonamer98 ) all throughout the internet. I love music, but especially love video game music. I come from a musical background, in that my mother is a musician, I can sing (baritone), and I am hoping to learn to play the piano.

    I found OCRemix about four months ago, and I have downloaded almost one hundred tracks I like, and chances are there are hundreds I have yet to discover.

    Since I live in Washington, DC, I'm not far from the epicenter of OCR (mainly the Cheasapeake area). I went to my first MAGfest this year, and the OCR panel as well as some encouragement from the guys at Overclocked After Dark convinced me to join the forums.

    I hope to eventually make mixes of my own. I'm going to do some research on how to make music without resorting to a recording studio.

    Peace,

    Nonamer
