Sent out a tweet, hopefully that will generate more interest. FYI MindWanderer, Wednesday is April 30.

Prancing Dad is 11 min 47 seconds, which is from 2012. So yeah, there's been some long tracks. By the way, I do plan on critiquing your track when I find the time.

Didn't realize the music was up. Downloaded. I'll be voting for this. I'll tweet this compo @ocremix, hopefully I'll get a retweet. I managed to get a retweet about voting for the previous episode, though I'm not sure if it brought in any extra votes.

When you're working on a big project, you don't just check at the end to see if it was completed. You divide the project into smaller tasks, and keep tabs on the progress of the project at various stages. The same thing with New Years resolutions, check in periodically on your progress, motivate yourself. That's why I'm checking my list now, and I think others will agree.

So far, no. I still have so many unfinished remixes. I'll start something, then get sick of it before I can finish. I still only seem to be able to finish remixes in competitions, and I've joined less of those this year. I really should start doing the PRC. Whenever I think about doing a remix for PRC, the deadline is so close. I need to pay more attention to when they start! Not yet, but there's plenty of time left in 2014.

I enjoyed this quite a bit actually. I'm a fan different music, especially when it combines multiple styles. The arrangement is nice, and I enjoyed the lyrics. Overall well executed and full of energy. I like dubstep, and appreciate good rapping. Plenty of that here.

When is the voting due?

I suggest putting a download link in the first post, rather than having people go to the social group and selecting the round. A download link in the first post stands out a lot more.

My votes are in! I don't think I ever want to hear Safety Dance again.

I think the deadline for voting should be in the current news section. I know it says voting lasts for one week, but there's not any indication of when the week started. If someone hadn't been following the compo thread, they would have to dig through to find out that information.

Alright, my votes are in. I'll post reviews soon.

Voting is due today, I hope all the participants are planning on voting, or already have! I'll be sending in my votes soon. I also hope we get more than six votes!

Happy Birthday!!!

Yep, definitely agree with you. It can be tough to add in new variations to a basically finished track. I've tried and failed. Anyway, good luck if you do decide to submit this!

Wow, this one's pretty unique. Some interesting sounds in this mix, I like it. Yeah, it's close to the source, especially the first minute. You have some variations, which may be enough to pass, but it couldn't hurt to add in more interpretation.

This mix needs a lot of work, but I wasn't any better when I first started. So just keep at it. The bass and drums do not fit well with the other instruments. They also tend to overpower everything else. The saxophone or trumpet (can't tell from the sample) is very mechanical and the sample has an unpleasant tone. The drums lacks variety, the same pattern is used throughout the track. Change things up a bit. The quality of the samples aren't great, I'd say add some more processing. For example, the hi-hats are sounding dry, so I suggest adding reverb or delay. The arrangement of the bass is not very exciting, the notes change, but the arrangement remains basically the same from bar to bar. Also, as I mentioned above (and Anorax as well), it does overpower at times, and tends to bury the drums. The arrangement of the other instruments fairs better, with a few changes the original melody. Overall, the arrangement is passable, which is the best part of the track.

Hey, this is good so far. Nice grooving jam. I can hear what you guys are going for and I like it. I haven't heard anything musically from you for a while, Taucer. Are you planning on being more musically involved on OCR? That would be pretty cool.

I enjoyed this, especially the metal aspects. I think the only thing holding this track back is the synth work. I think the synths are too basic sounding, they don't have much depth. Other than that, a solid track. Nice work!

It's fixed now.

I found a random bug, I'm not sure if it's at all related to the changes. When I click on any game, select a song, then click back on the game name, (not the orange hyperlink, but the one below it) I get the following error: "http://ocremix.org:59383 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/ocremix/public_html/includes/config.php:101) in /home/ocremix/public_html/redirect.php on line 36" Here's a screen shot. I've tried 4 or 5 different games and songs, same result.

I just submitted my entry! My source is the (Level 1) from Marble Madness.

Mine is pretty much done, just hoping for some final feedback. If not, I'll be taking a final pass then submitting it.

I'm getting the same error as ZPedro, only this time on every remix on the front page. Error reads the same except for:"/home/ocremix/public_html/remix.php on line 57". And apparently now the front page itself is throwing the same error, again on a different line: "/home/ocremix/public_html/includes/php/classes/lists/ReMixList.php on line 145". By the way, I'm using Firefox on Windows 7.
