Best episode evar.

Donkey and Candy are going to have retarded kids.

But can you DJP?

Sorry I couldn't make it, Larry...was busy signing albums.
I have to say though, you're a cruel, cruel person. Iggy's gonna be heartbroken.
-
Hope you got the bumper Larry.
Tee hee!

Darn that mozzarella!

Not a big fan of H.P. Lovecraft, I'm guessing.

Heh...post 1337 in the Decisions forum.
Nice.

Playing the Prelude smoothly with one hand is a feat in itself. Very impressed with the second half.
Good jorb.

Dude, Mario Twins pwnz.

Something you take after the amount of uppers you'd need to not like this remix.

Chrono Trigger Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price? Should be around $50 or something...

Hahaha...brings back fond memories of the Vega vs. Chun Li fight. Thank you, SF Anniversary Collection. Although, it also brings back the unspeakable terror, dread, and utter helplessness I felt as a child whenever Vega would jump onto the wall, knowing full well that the cheap little punk would inevitably jump off and claw me and that there was not a thing I could do about it. And then he'd retreat and do it all over again. Curse you, first-grade reflexes.
Ahem...
Errr, right...about the mix then. Anyway, yeah...for some reason, when it started, I couldn't help feeling it sounded slightly n00bish (mostly because of the familiar-sounding synth/sample and because omitting the original bassline notes there creates odd harmonies). I quickly got used to it though, so I don't have too much of an issue with that. Effects and percussion are used intelligently and effectively throughout. I think my favorite part was also the country names/"f-f-f-fight" thing. Very nice touch...Rayza always seems to know how to use sound clips/game samples in a discreet and generally non-annoying manner, unlike many other electronica remixers. I also like the break/transition/whatever-you-techno-people-call-it at 3:15.
Overall, very competent and well-executed remixing work. Recommended to any fan of Vega (and/or Chun Li's panties ). Good stuff from Rayza as usual.
(P.S.
R.I.P., Chris and Charles...)

It'd be a nice to have a complete listing of classical pieces he used in the games. I'm interested in arranging "Udderly Abducted" from EWJ2, but it sounds suspiciously classical. Can anybody confirm whether this is true? Although, I could probably come up with something for "Anything but Tangerines" too.
But yeah...I guess someone might as well start up the EWJ1/2 Remix Project now.

Sweet, I'm so gonna...wait...
don't submit a ReMix of a Britney Spears song and tell us it's Super Mario because you were playing Super Mario when you wrote it.(Pssst, codename "SuperMarioRemixProject"!)

Dude, this stuff is tite yo.
Ya'll best recognize.

I just wanted to thank Adhesive Boy for monopolizing my playlist for the past few days. I have to say it's been quite a while since I've been this addicted to a song.
Might you consider making another cello-based arrangement, of Chrono Trigger's Underwater Palace theme?
-
Try disabling the SPC700 emulation or, alternatively, turning off all the sound channels (I forgot the shortcuts for that). Some of them might be used for sound effects though, so you might want to leave a couple on.

That would be because it's played ragtime style.
There's playing ragtime and then there's stumbling over the keys or dragging (again, I only nit this one particular instance past one second, it's only one missed note, really, the rest is done superbly).
I dragged at the beginning and then sped up because I felt that it fit the spirit of a pirate drinking song.
Also...
So I suppose I'm alone in feeling that Vigilante's lyrics were too creepy to listen to more than once? And that it would be completely unreasonable of me to so much as hope for a voiceless version of that mix?"Funky Monkey Love" is just another one of those remixes on Kong in Concert that encourages you to think outside the box! Have you never thought of how Donkey Kong would express his feelings for Candy Kong? Well then wonder no longer! Vigilante has given you the fans the insight into Donkey Kong's love life that even Rare's development team was reluctant to provide!
That's freakin' incest, dude. You people are freakin' sick. This song deserves to be in Jerry Springer.
Or Japan.

Protricity did his best to eliminate the clipping, but apparently it was specific only to certain setups (for example, some people had their equalizer turned on), so it was impossible for him to troubleshoot every possible cause. I'm sure he'd appreciate any suggestions on avoiding this kind of thing from happening in the future, though.

HEY.
It's not my fault that he had smiling Indians on his side.

analoq - Noir "amazeing!" [The People's Remix Competition: Animation 5]
Aaron won PRCA:5 handily with this cool spin on "Maze" from the Noir soundtrack, which OverCoat randomly picked to be this contest's challenge (thanxusomuch!~). Stripping away the (crappy) vocals and focusing on the melodic progression of the music itself, analoq tinkers around with the original with a light, laid-back groove before moving up the power again with electric guitar returning at the 1:47 mark. Short and sweet, and a vast improvement over the original (hey, those vocals are the epitome of an "acquired taste"). You can always trust analoq to any idea and expertly exploit its potential. In the meantime, we'll be waiting for his choice of source material for PRC:A6.
Larry, you are something stealth and ninja like.
For anyone interested, I have analoq's choice for PRCA:6 and jesus, it's a doozy....
When analoq wins, everyone loses (except analoq).

The Blasted Man (Hungry Joe) - Final Fantasy 8 "Kind of Breezy" [VGMix2 #1998] - OCR Feedback
Nate Jasensky's recent OCR submission was turned down, but was a mix that I personally felt was very promising and deserved more attention. This one's an energetic take on God knows what theme. If you're down with a guitar based remix with some rock undertones, then you should sign yourself up for a listen to this progressive offering. This one carries quite a number of style changes and features tons of development in those respects, almost functioning like a medley piece. With regards to the strengths and weaknesses of the track, I've written so, so much about this mix in detail as an OCR judge and that carried over into my review of "Kind of Breezy" over at VGMix, which you'll wanna check out if you're really wondering what I thought about it in ludicrous amounts of detail. It'll be interesting to see what material Nate can produce in the future with such a noteworthy effort here.
This one is a tier 4 in VGMix, WAAAAY too low for the proficiency it has. Sure, the samples are less than stellar, and the rock section is haphazardly performed. That said, this is an awesome mix of THE OVERWORLD THEME fom FF8.
Actually, it's a remix of "Breezy" (yeah, who'da thunk it?), the Balamb town theme.

That was the most freaking fast direct post. EVAR.
Nope. If I remember right, that distinction would belong to this.
(Actually, Rayza's holds the record at 6 hours, but yes, I was exaggerating. )
