    Hey, might as well mention what I'm watching

    One Piece (off and on, I stopped last in the Enies Lobby arc)

    Ace of the Diamond (i like baseball)

    I Couldn't Be A Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided To Get A Job (for now. Can't decide if I want to stick with this one yet)

    Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor (I've been told this is horrid, but DtB didn't provide the closure I wanted so I'm desperate)

    XXXholic (just started, I like it, but the random connection to Tsubasa is weird)

    Tsubasa (my gf is making me :P)

    Recently finished:

    Outlaw Star (It wasn't too bad. Hated jim tho)

    News! My package arrived a few days ago, but I wasn't home (won't be until January), so Fedex kept it. Will call them this afternoon to see how things go. :)

    They emailed me, but it was in French so I only kind of understood what was going on... but there was a phone number on there, if you need it lmk

    Thanks Anorax! I'll def be wearing that link-santa shirt tomorrow for christmas :3

    Also just to mention Cherna, sorry that my thing didn't get to you before you left for holiday, according to the estimates it was going to get there like today or tomorrow. Hopefully you won't hate it, I kinda just made a blind guess :P

    hopefully i didn't break some unspoken rule by saying that lol

    Winter OC ReMixes

    Hey everyone!

    I'm sure next to no one remembers me, but I was a fairly active compo participant for a couple years around here. I think that I entered every Mega Man compo for a while and always got knocked out first round.

    Anyways, I found my truer calling when I got to college: radio! I don't have to compose music and I get to talk about things that I know nothing about like I know everything. It's a perfect job :P

    So my student station is having their big Christmas broadcast thing, and my show (Link to the Beat) is doing a 12-hour overnight extravaganza. Since it is christmas, I need to accrue a nice selection of ice world themes so that my show's somewhat congruent with the rest of the broadcast. If you guys have any recommendations for ice, snow or winter themed soundtracks, songs or remixes of video game stuff, let me know so that I can use it! I'll happily give you all credit on the air too :D

    If you want to listen in, the stream is here, and our facebook page is here. The big show is from 10 pm Saturday to 10 am Sunday CST. You should listen in! :D

    I want to give Zerothemaster a special shout-out, though. You have improved so amazingly much over the last year you've spent at this, and your persistence is really starting to pay off. If I'd heard Tandocca Scale even 6 months ago I wouldn't have believed you'd written it (though it does still have some signature Ztm quirks). Keep improving at this pace and you'll be one of the best around in another year!

    Awww thanks MW. I remember how much you hated my mixes back during the last couple compos :P I'm glad I'm getting better, though I'm still not that good :P I'm curious what those "signature quirks" are.

    Also that first lead was meant to be that superverby and stuff. I liked it like that lol

    Games that retell legends or signify a subject.

    Okami basically retells Japanese mythology, but with more puppies

    I recall that King of Fighters has some ties to Japanese mythology too, mostly the inclusion of Orochi as an antagonistic force in the early games

    Isn't Dynasty Warriors set in Feudal Japan?

    There are some parallels to Christian stuff in the Megaman Zero series, including a lot of sacrificial death, and some of the villains being very antichrist like (both Weil and Copy X)

    Seth in Street Fighter IV has a yin yang symbol in his stomach... does that count? :P

    EDIT: also, the Silent Hill series is drowning in religious symbolism, especially the ones that involve the cult (1, 3, 4, Homecoming, Origins). It's kinda like if they really missed the point of Christianity lol

    WTF O.O

    I mean, I love me some 20th century compositions but this is nuts.

    And yes, I've heard some other stuff that has overloaded my musical capacities but it does take quite a bit of work :P

    EDIT: Ooh I like this one:

    by the same composer.

    Ligeti is wack. A lot of his stuff was used in 2001: A Space Odyssey (without his permission lol). He also made this:

    which is one of my favorites.

    sounds kinda like dkc

    I dunno... I think food is a little different. I can't tell good wine from bad wine, because when I drink the stuff, all I can taste is tannins and alcohol. The stuff I don't like is too overwhelming for me to even detect anything else. But I can tell good rap from bad rap, even though I hate rap: it still has meter and rhythm, the vocalist still has to have good timbre and it's even possible to be off-key. You never get to a point of sensory overload with music, unless your EQ is screwed up, and that's a valid point of critique.

    you can overload the musical senses, it just takes skill :P
