Lol the style differences between X3 Doppler and Scaravich are too much. I'm mixing for X-Square this week but I have no idea how I'll mix these two tracks together!

Sent my WAV. Sorry for taking so long. Hope I wasn't the last one left

Shoot! Sorry for not responding. Tbh, I haven't begun the mix yet but I should have it by Nov. I leave it to you to decide what to do with my track.

I love this song too. Unfortunately I won't be able to enter this competition but I hope to be able to share something related soon.

If you're not blessed with perfect pitch or whatever that is called, then your only way of getting better is by practicing. Listen to songs and try to guess what notes are playing (preferably by playing along as timaeus suggests). If you practice lots you'll eventually get good at it!

Fishy's cuter.

Ah, that theme is nice. I expected to get the Scaravich. It's quite a strange tune but it's cool. I'm happy with it.

It is. I think I'll get my third pick in the drafts!

And mine, with team hopefully announced soon: 1. Volt Kraken. 2. Blizzard Wolfgang. 3. Ground Scaravich. 4. Rainy Turtloid. 5. Slash Beast.

This is a pretty Smash 64 theme that could be remixed: . I'd offer myself but I'm not sure I either fit your criteria or have time do to it haha.

Sunday is the deadline? Have been super busy so I want to plan ahead (for what lasts of this week at least haha).

I may join this. Trying to form a team right now.

I don't think I'll send you more WIPs before the final mix is ready Black_Doom. It should be relatively soon too.

I need to start finishing mine too haha.

I'm sure I posted about this somewhere in these forums but at some point I held 4 WR's (speed runs) in different stages from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze. I've lost all of them by now though haha but it was cool having them!

I'm sure I shouldn't post it here but I guess it's no wrong if I PM you!

I'll send you my WIP in a few hours or early tomorrow. I got a sudden burst of inspiration! EDIT: Or probably during the night but I swear it's coming haha.

I suck at making loud songs... I'd rather make them quiet but it's not really feasible since I don't want to mess with people's speakers!

My inspirations come mainly from prog rock/metal bands. Recently I've been very inspired by Genesis for example. Other big influences in my style are Marillion, Frost*, Symphony X, Toto and Pain of Salvation. I also have some jazz influences but I can't really point a particular band since I don't actually listen to much jazz but I've read a few books and stuff about jazz theory because I love them chords but I'm not into improvising and solos that much. When doing remixes, however, I tend to look for outside inspirations depending on the style I want to achieve. Sometimes I get inspired by other remixes, like zircon's, Willrock's and others. Other times I search for specific inspirations depending on what I want to do. For example, I listened to many western songs when doing a Paper Mario remix once!

For anybody interested I posted a WIP of my track in the project forums. Hope you enjoy it!

This looks lovely. I'll definitely buy it when it comes to Wii U.

Are you interested in more FE7 tracks? That game has a stellar soundtrack. If the answer is yes, don't sign me in yet though, but count me as super interested haha.

I'll be a bit nitpicky here (sorry!). I don't particularly enjoy the drums here. I feel they don't sound powerful enough (snare is super weak) and you tried to mess too much with the rhytm to make it interesting, but instead it made the song lose power. The hats don't sound too good either. Your playing is great! Nice vibrattos and bends, they sound very good. However, you should be wary of them when the guitar plays together with the brass, since I noticed some clashing notes there. Regarding the general mix, I'd lower the rhytm guitars a bit since they overpower the rest of the instruments. The brass instruments could also sound a bit more clear. I don't know how you panned the song but maybe some panning could help the brass samples gain some space. Anyway, I hope it didn't sound too harsh but I think this has potential and could sound awesome with some adjustments!

Nice sound! I feel you went a bit overboard with the reverb and maybe boosted the high frequencies a bit too much. The intro in particular sounds way too washy. I agree with Mikeaudio about the lack of low frequencies, which is pretty noticeable in 0:57 for example. In any case, nitpicking aside, this is a very pretty remix. I like the soft strings in the middle. I also like how you used the ideas from the song in the section at 2:20, it sounds very good!

The name of the mix made me expect something (even) more proggish! Some of the synths and guitar parts were very DT-ish though. Anyway, it's nice to have some remixes from this game since it has great music. Like Brandon said, some of the synths in the intro aren't that good, but at least they create a nice atmosphere. Nice job!
