  1. We've got a bassist! One's enough How are your vocals? Could you post a clip? Drums? Do you mean a live drumkit? Could you post a clip of that as well, because that would be really fantastic. As far as keys go, I've got that covered.. I'm not 100% decided yet, but it'll probably have some combination of Zebra 2, chipsounds, poizone, cubase synths, etc... The idea is to have it be like a space orchestra of synths. But I don't want to go overboard. So it'll be like an orchestral backing but a bit subtle, except for the leads, which are leads. Like DragnBreth said before, Star One is a good example of how it may sound
  2. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY JOY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY JOY I'll teach your grandmother to SUCK EGGS! I mean... Happy birthday.
  3. It's like riding a bike, right? If you want to cook up a sample, that'd be swell. Might be hard to get a good recording sound of it with what you got? Let me know!
  4. Yes + Yes Thank you. Also I'd like to note, instrumentalists... violinist, drummer, ethnic drummer, flute, etc... unique stuff.. feel free to sign on and I'll try to make a specific spot for you.
  5. Space Quest remix, turning it into a rock Opera. Collecting vocalists. Sources: Intro The Deltaur Intercepts The Data Cartridge Thrusting Through Space Orat's Cave Vocalists: wildfire - Communications Officer rhapsodos - Angel ToN - Ghost Cyril - Orat, maybe.... Roger? Chernabogue - Navigator Brandon - Alien Hunter Instruments: wildfire - Trumpet Shrack - live percussion Obtuse - bass halc - chiptune breakdown Fratto - Tuba / Trombone Don't think that just because you're an undiscovered talent that you can't sign on. YOU are who I am looking for specifically. But it's also open to the likes of.. without naming names... pretty much any talented singer with a microphone. Is this an album project, NO. Is this going to take months, NO (edit: YES ROFLOLOLOLOLOLO). It's a song I am going to make, preferably when I get a new midi keyboard or when mine gets fixed. There's not a deadline because I am just going to write the parts / lyrics, and send them out, and then get reference mp3s from the singers and eventually their final 16-bit wav raw track of vocals. Update 10/26: I think I've found all of the sources we need. The song will probably end up being 7 minutes long *sigh*. Hopefully that doesn't hurt the quality too much when I lower the kbps for OCR, but ya'll will get 320kbps versions when it's done anyways. Update 11/06: Everyone has a character assigned.
  6. I think I used to get a fuller tone using 2 mics on the half-stack, but using 1 mic by itself is a definite improvement to the clarity of the tone. Good stuff.
  7. Sure, I'll give this a go again this year. The stuffed cactuar was the highlight of my year up until now, it's sitting on a perch above my screen where I see it everyday.
  8. Yo! How's it going with the song? I was listenin to it.. and i couldn't really make out the 2 different rhythm guitar tracks... what's up with that? Especially in that one part where the notes are different, hehe.. It starts at like 0'42 on the original mp3 :o

  9. I saw them once in Ohio. Fantastic show. I agree by the way! Dead thread more or less dead, but I'm still up to the numerous challenges listed within here. The main problem right now is that I've gotten on the inverted sleeping schedule again which is hella hard to reverse (so there's people home when I'm up and can't record). The other thing is that I've really slacked out in my practice hard. I tried to record some earlier, and I hit some notes that felt like they were lower pitched growls than I've ever done yet, but I lost control pretty quick due to lack of practice. This thread is a tool I would still like to use. I encourage anyone out there working with this to do that as well. I've got to get back to & surpass "monkeys disarm their kremlings" as far as my growls go. It's what I do. Edit: Seriously, I posted this in Off Topic, why'd it get moved to--ahh nevermind, it doesn't matter
  10. Leave it on normal though tbh, I have a feeling it'll be hard enough, unless people are planning on working together in an army with diamond swords.
  11. New rule for anyone posting an actor to portray them, how about posting a picture of you next to a picture of the actor. Spock and Burt Reynolds look nothing alike. X_X
  12. I was surprised by the lack of h8 towards the vocals here, but I appreciate it, folks. Then I looked on Youtube, where opinions are less biased. EGAD. What a thrashing. Hahaha. Anyway, it was an honor working on this and I look forward to ruining a lot more songs in the future.
  13. I got casted, bwahah! OCRE casted me actually. And actually Irwin, I've got one for you. What do you think of this? Yah, it's a random picture of Ando from Heroes @MechaFone: I've never seen you before
  14. My midi keyboard got borked, but I may try to switch up the parts by hand by sliding existing notes around... that might work.... for the drums and mellotrons anyway in the second verse.
  15. I'm sorry, I forgot about the people I met in real life for the most part.. If I would have casted them badly, they'd hurt me. Plus I wouldn't want to offend anyone by making a ridiculous racial comparison with an asian actor, also I'm really not that familiar with asian actors. I would cast Gario as Jim Carrey though. HAH.
  16. The Remixers, a musical by Mel Brooks .....you'd make more money with an Everclear Hangover than you would with a hit!
  17. What exactly are you trying to accomplish here? I liked the synth pad but the other instruments were pretty vanilla MIDI type sounds. It doesn't match the feel of the original or expand / improve on it, so I dunno.
  18. I support the whitelist too. I know who did this, or at least I know who I'm going to blame for doing this, but this is what remains of my house which wasn't even remotely near spawn. But yeah, I probably won't be on again until the whitelist / update is in place. I had barely been playing at all as it is but this is just ridiculous.
  19. If they enable damage and enemies, can we NOT block them off and ruin the game that way? xD It's gonna be an epic fight for survival.... some won't make it out alive!~
  20. I actually agree here, one tiny island -- it could actually be man-made. Maybe have one giant tower on this tiny island that we spawn on, and we can jump off into the ocean without taking damage...
  21. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan We find out OC ReMix never actually existed (and one of the mods is the devil) What a tweest
  22. I had to get a MIDI reference for this: If you need one for DKC3... that's pretty sad, hehe.. This music is elementary, my dear Watson. No offense to yous, full offense to dkc3 bwahah *kicks emunator in the retina*
