If anybody has an spare Dakrai code I'd really appreciate it. Can't get one in Latin America.
-
I'm working on mine too... Not that close to completion yet but in the works!
-
Hahaha this is great.
Someone should balance this by covering this song:
Maybe I'll do it in the future, but I can imagine a metal remix of this being awesome.
-
I'll do my best to reach that WIP date. Just need to get some good inspiration...
-
I have a separation of 3. It links me directly to Uematsu lol.
Btw, I'm blown away by the amount of info in MusicBrainz. It has everything about me, even the fact that I use different names here and in DoD.

Hopefully someone takes my idea of OCR Secret Remix Santa for 2016 so that people too far away like me can easily participate
-
Oh, technomanga is a silly "meme" here from some guy that complained that OCR made too much techno or something like that.
-
Hope you guys enjoy the mix when the album releases. To my surprise there aren't many Chemical Plant Zone remixes that aren't "technomanga" so I went for a funkier/rock approach.

Pretty neat articles about Undertale here:

They're like an extended version of DrumUltimA's posts.

I don't even want to post my first remix here. It's awful haha. At least my songs sound decent now.
I'd link my old Guitar Pro tabs if mysongbook.com was still alive though ;_; My original music isn't that bad.
-
Someone should do Threed from Earthbound. It's a very pretty theme!

I've always been obsessed with avoiding repetition in my songs, long before I met OCR. However, that's something I would like to change since many great progressive bands actually use repetition a lot! Some Genesis or Marillion songs have sections that simply build off a base for long without getting stale and that's something I'd learn to do myself. For example, The Invisible Man (by Marillion) has a section (beggining at around 6:30) that lasts like 3 minutes and has the same guitar riff playing through it all the time yet it's very progressive thanks to changes in the other instruments, particularly the vocals and keyboards.
OCR did change my music a lot though since before OCR I only wrote music using Guitar Pro. I used to post my compositions in MySongBook (a tab site) actually!

Copying melodies is fine and all but if you really want to learn to play keyboards you should take care of finger positioning, especially when you're beggining to play. It's very common to see people who use like 1 or 2 fingers to play because they never learned proper positioning.
You should also take care of your wrist positioning since a wrong one can be pretty hurtful. Your hand should never be below the keys, and you always want your fingers arched down to play the keys (like the 1st pic below).
Sadly I don't have any book to recommend but I bet there are plenty tutorials on YouTube haha. I'd recommend watching stuff on hand posture and finger positions for scales and stuff. Of course there's also learning how to play with 2 hands at the same time but most exercises should cover the basics of that.

So this is an album of village themes in general right, not limited to RPGs?
-
There was (is?) a Paper Mario project that's unofficial (I believe?) but I'm not sure what its status is.

Yo dude I would be super down to collab on a prog metal version of Danger! Not sure if you're trying to do that. Danger is the first track that comes to my mind when it comes to stuff from SoM that I would want to do
. I believe you already heard my stuff because you hooked me up with some feedback on my thrash metal FF6 remix in the workshop section (which I still have to respond to...haven't had a ton of time in the past week!)
With that said, if anyone wants a collaborator I'd love to work with someone on a remix! I can lay down guitar tracks/solos and help with arranging, but mixing/production is not my strong suit.
I'd loooove to claim Flight of the Unknown if that's cool. I don't have any posted remixes, but I'm doing stuff for the FF3, FF8 albums and others as well(I probably wouldn't be able to get a solid WIP together until I make more progress on those in the next month or two though). I'd also definitely be open to collaborating on it with people. Have a few ideas for an arrangement. You can check out the stuff I did for DoD or just click the Soundcloud link in my sig to hear my other remixes. I'm pretty new to the scene so the mixing in my 2015 entries isn't so great, but I think my most recent FF6 DoD entry sounds pretty good.
If I can't claim any tracks then I'd love to collab on someone else's.
That sounds interesting! Your material in that WIP was pretty good.
If Bahamut is up for it I could claim Danger then.
-
Glad to see this revived.
I've always thought "Danger" could be remixed in the style of prog. metal band Andromeda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOlPFPW5Tuo.
Not sure if I should try claiming it though...
-
Awesome post DrumUltimA! I recently finished playing Undertale and I'm blown away by the OST.
The number of incredible tracks in there is just... too much. My favourite is probably the genocide battle against Undyne (Battle Against a True Hero) or Death by Glamour, although the True Lab themes (Here We Are and Amalgam) are good competitors too.
It's pretty cool how the themes are reused during the soundtrack. My favourite has to be how Flowey's theme is turned from a silly cute song into an epic battle theme in Finale. The magic of changing the chord progression (and a few extra notes!).
-
So many gifts!
If only there were events in South America for the GameStop mythicals. I'll miss some cool ones (and already missed Mew).
-
Lol, I just realized the underrated tag in the topic.
I understand the resurrection themes are short, which is why I suggested a medley! They are pretty iconic themes IMO, especially the first one. Open the Door. Anyway, if nobody does it I could attempt it in the future haha.
Either way, I guess I'll claim something because I don't want to miss out haha. Sign me for Overworld!
-
What qualifies as a hero? Just the main protagonist or any "hero" character in a game with many playable character counts? I think BadAss was focused on main villains so I wonder how you plan on focusing this one.
-
It's nice to see this has gained some steam! Terranigma really deserves a good tribute as it has an amazing soundtrack.
I don't want to commit myself to anything yet since my remixing schedule has been pretty bad lately but I wish you luck.
I do feel there should be a medley of resurrection themes somewhere in the album though.
-
Wow, that sounds cool!
I heard a WIP of Jorito's remix and it's sounding incredible now. Who did the whistling?
Pl511's one sounds like Fire Emblem music haha, pretty nice.
A shame my mix isn't in that list but I guess it's my fault for sitting on the 99% finished line for so long haha.

You almost nailed it timaeus!
"Vio" isn't used for 1st person.
Anyway, I also remember this one from the workshop. It's a very pretty arrangement with nice playing. I feel the guitars are a bit too bright but that's just nitpicking. Awesome job!
