  1. It's true. Anyone remember t.A.t.u? Lesbian dudes? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crVO1J-5VqE Also IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN Take on meeeeee She's a maniac, maaaaniac on the floor and she metuls like she never metul'd before Yeah that's what I meant. If people could understand what I meant like you do, I'd have no enemies. Great job sir <3
  2. In over 100% of cases the remixes are better than the source, depending on the game. A lot of old game music sounds like pOOp and fixing it up with modern sounds is great. There's some covers by real bands that are better than the original song. I'm struggling to think of an example... Epic Mullet Guy's "parody" of Friday was better than the original. Graveworm covered R.E.M.'s Losing my religion They also did I Need a Hero by Bonnie Tyler - Children of Bodom covered Britney Spears Pain of Salvation's cover of Yellow Raven by Scorpions I googled and found 12 CDs worth of metal bands covering songs Dream Theater covering Elton John?

  3. Irvine is awesome. And as your avatar it seems fitting, at least I think that's Irvine.. Hmm. Good choice anyway. :-) Yeah, posting is fun, and MAGfest 10 will be fun if you do decide to go.

  4. YES. IT IS FREE. It is also fun. Your music is great. I'm getting pwned by bulls. someone should remix this music I quit at the boss battle, after killing 1 dude then the other dude "moves through the air" to land on you... yeah.. that's there I draw the line, lol.
  5. SoS is amazing! Thanks for making it so awesome, you did justice to the great game Sonic 1 is! Congrats on the release, sir.

  8. Didn't you know? Nintendo's production schedule is written by fan rumors. That's why there's always a new Zelda and Kirby and whatnot--and Nintendo listened, too, about a Kid Icarus remake, and stuff like that. Yea.
  9. *oblivious to other thread* Yeah, it's supposed to be more powerful than the 360 AND the PS3. I don't know if it's more powerful than both of them combined. But if it were, it'd be almost sentient.
  10. Brap, I forgot to mention Battle Scene B which is actually a really incredible song, I really dig it. It's open, so if anyone wants to put together something nice for it, that'd be cool. Bonus points if you use koto and shamisen. This should arguably NOT be a tough song to fill, as the song is amazing and has ample melodic substance. EDIT: We got Insert Rupee and Izkemia (from the first album) -- will leave this here incase something opens up.
  11. It would be better if OCR had their own player on the site, to just play the mp3 which is already hosted on the site. Instead of an embedded soundcloud player for mixposts. o_O Not a bad general idea though man,
  12. I made a replica of the plate from FF7 over what I now call the "Midgarian Slums", a town on an existing server. It really did block out all the sunlight, I was surprised. Everyone got pissed off about living under the plate, and I was like hell yes, it's just like the other game. It's a game within a game now.
  13. The different "cliques" around here remind me of like, a prison cafeteria. Oh over here you've got your synth elitists, over here you've got your "It sounds like a MIDI" crusaders.. the live instrumentalists cowering in the corner, and over here we've got vocalists
  14. Autoplay in general, on anything, is ridiculously annoying. I hate when a window pops up behind the one I'm in and starts playing a loud advertisement. Then there's that CONGRATULATIONS YOU'VE WON crap.
  15. Get preset, put bitcrusher on it = success
  16. Hi. Before anyone says it, FF1 is done (submitting on the 15th to staff review) and apart from that, I currently have no ongoing projects at OCR. So without further ado, FINAL FANTASY 2 NES! Current listing as of April 13th 2011: 1. Prelude (Jeff Ball) 2. Battle 1 (KiddCabbage) 3. Battle 2 (Knight of the Round) 4. (mithius)5. (Insert Rupee)6. Revivification (Brandon Strader) 7. Rebel Army Theme (PrototypeRaptor) 8. Town (CyriltheWolf) 9. Main Theme (Bonkers) 10. Castle Pandemonium (Brandon Strader) 11. Imperial Army Theme (Knight of the Round & Brandon Strader) 12. Magician's Tower (blackguitar) 13. Chocobo Theme / Run / Revived Emperor (Izkemia) 14. Ancient Castle (M-H) 15. Dungeon (AMT) 16. Victory! (NintenJoe64) 17. Temptation of the Princess (Brandon Strader) 18. Game Over (Chernabogue & Brandon Strader) 19. (Archangel)Needless to say the line-up is pretty amazing and it filled up pretty quick. We basically need someone to do a cool remix for Chocobo's Theme, Run, and Revived Emperor; the last 2 I wouldn't mind seeing in a medley. These three sources aren't necessarily the strongest. This is the earliest manifestation of Chocobo theme, which has evolved heavily throughout the years. For OCR purposes it should be passable quality though, which implies that it shouldn't be TOO liberal. Something like Rhymes with Elixir may work, but preferably not a rap. Unless it's rap metal. It should not be an original song. So yeah. Tough spots to fill. If anyone thinks they can provide badass renditions of these sources, and fit alongside the above names, please let me know. First WIP date is July 1st. http://theshizz.org/forum/index.php?/topic/35452-final-fantasy-2-project/
  17. I wouldn't have guessed he was a day over 50 from looking at him R.I.P bro
  18. Who'da thunk those two junkies could have made such cohesive works; great album
  19. I didn't know I had built a reputation of someone who murders project directors. Emunator, sure, over the years, yes... but... cut me some slack. As for Enchanted, Akuma's gonna figure out how tough it is to get WIPs and WAVs from people with his own project, Vroom.. maybe that'll inspire him to start tossing in his own sooner.
  20. It seems really pretentious to me. Oh we're better than everything else on the radio, saying it was a struggle to get on and even going through a "history of radio". Then you listen to the raps and they're pretty standard fare, sure they use sounds that aren't that common, but listen to tell me it's not the same concept.
  21. I will try so hard to be there this Saturday. I kinda dropped the ball last Saturday. :3
  22. Sonic is one of the earliest games I REMEMBER playing, but I think my earliest game was like... MegaMan on the NES Edit: I am sorry for this off-topic post, I confused this thread with the project release thread since they have the same name. To include further review and make this not a waste of the post, I will say this song is great. A splendid way to start off the album, flowing pretty well from the short intro. It fits. Great work!
  23. Thank you very much good sir :3
