Shael Riley

Hey! I've been doing this podcast. Here's a link: http://www.shaelriley.com/2011/06/19/captain-podcast-episode-3-fame/ And here's the description from my website: Captain Podcast Episode 3: Fame Do you know what I've got for you, my friend? Clocking in at just under two hours, it's a morbidly obese episode of Shael and Beefy's Captain Podcast; during which we dish dirt on, sing the praises of, or mention in passing Jonathan Coulton, Zealous 1, Doctor Awkward, MC Frontalot, MC Lars, Benjamin Bear, High-C, Mustin, Tanner4505, C64, Kabuto the Python, Brian Mazzaferri, and other people who I've already forgotten. Hunker down as me and Beefy tell you all about what it's like to be a very slightly famous person, punctuated by new music from me and the DIB, and old music from me and the Beefy. And, also, other music. Why, just look at this playlist!

Thanks! The answer actually is both, regarding what was remastered. We have a new album coming out that consists of 10 new original songs and 6 songs from the Songs From the Pit EP re-mastered, by Drew Lavyne, and slightly re-arranged (by Ty).

Hey, guys. I put out a new six-track EP, all covers, with my boy Suzums. Here are six new covers commissioned during the Kickstarter we ran over the summer. Awesome. Kickstarter Covers Free Download. Click the image to download. Track list: 1. Skyway (originally by Apples in Stereo) 2. The Distance (originally by Cake) 3. Duvet (originally by Boa) 4. Juese Belmont (originally by Disk Mastah Smokabitch)* 5. Silent Running (originally by Mike and the Mechanics) 6. Leave Out All the Rest (originally by Linkin Park) *featuring Z of Hipsterplease.com Silent Running, The Distance, and Juese are written for real NES hardware. Leave Out All the Rest utilizes an SPC source with samples from Chrono Trigger. Duvet and Skyway are fake chip, but still very nice if you ask me. Everything also has vox and guitars.

Is that even allowed? Isn't this the place for album releases?

I would like it if you would update the server; it's OK with me if this breaks add-ons.

Awesome. I want to see how far I walked.

I didn't know that would cause a problem. Sorry. I'd like to see a copy of the map with the arm I created, though, if you have one.

Finally, I was over 9,000. Walked all to way out to X: 10,000; Y: 0, where there just happened to be this awesome lava flow next to a blazing forest (that it had surely ignited). Then, built a house and took some pics. Pics here: http://www.shaelriley.com/minecraft/

Still waiting to get whitelisted as Shaelriley, so is my brother, as Devonriley. We're both vouched for by Suzumebachi, who's sitting here right next to me playing on the OCR server. Is there a whitelest update schedule?

Can I get whitelisted for this server?

I lolled. Heartily.

Hey, OCR! What is up, my homepeople? I mostly do original music now, but I am proud to have cut my teeth on the VGM scene. I love this website; I love you people; I love what you do, and I am proud, whenever an indie rock blogger or nerd music podcaster asks me about my music background, to say I spent my formative years with Overclocked Remix. There's almost no doubt in my mind that I wouldn't be making the kind of music I'm making today--pop rock instrumentation with added NES chiptunes--were it not for the kind of thoughtful and passionate but also critical--and I mean it literally; rooted in the word "crticism"--appreciation for old video game music that OCR fostered in me. Thereby, I've always felt like I have a special home here, like it's the source of my secret power when people with a different music background ask "how did you learn to do that?" Not that I'm King Music Guy. That is not what I'm saying. Jake Kaufman I am not! Still, I learned amazing things here and have since been able to pass on some of what I learned to musicians from other communities, or no community at all. I've been fortunate in that people have sought me out, knowing my music. Most recently, me and fellow OCR veteran Ty "Suzumebachi" Guenley have prepared a new album of vocal chip-rock, consisting of ten new songs and six from our 2009 EP. It's all recorded, but we're seeking funding for professional engineering and mastering; we want to really make it sound as good as it can. So, we started this Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shaelriley/ultimate-songs-from-the-pit-the-new-album-by-shael If you're interested in what I've been up to, check it out! It's got a link to our 2009 EP, which you can listen to for free. And, if you like the EP, you can pledge $10 to get a digital download of our full-length album once it's mastered. Or you can pledge $35 to get a limited-run, three-disc version with alternate and acoustic versions of every track, and some other bonus material. There are other rewards for pledging too. Check it out! It would be really helpful, too, if you could spread the word about our Kickstarter to anyone you think might be interested in chiptune pop-rock. If you have a Facebook, blog, Twitter or Podcast, you'd be doing me and Ty a great favor by helping to promote awareness of our new album and its need for funding. Thanks a bunch for reading this whole mess. I love all of ya'll. -S

Light reverb has been sorely missing from every OCReMix since the site's conception; this will be on every remix I submit (all created by Remixinator, of course) for the foreseeable future. Also, thank you for allowing us to MAX IT OUT.

I'd like to vote for Number Four, three times, please. If that is disallowed, I will vote for Four, Nine, and Seven, in that order.

I hope the bad guys will all be claimed by Bad Dudes. I'll do Hiro or Kitty N. from Bust a Groove if someone else will do Robo Z. In light of the project title, let's just make it . I'm on it.

We have come a long way from the pull-down download menu. Happy 10th anniversary to OCR, one of my favorite websites. I owe the community a lot, as and artist and a listener. Thanks, everyone. I know I'm late to the party, but man! 10 years of OCR!

I am a great connector; a nexus of the people. No, seriously though, nice work, DJ Nerd Guy.

Ahaha! I love you guys! <3

Oh fuck. I totally dropped the ball here. Sorry, guys. I'm up for another tournament if anyone starts one. I'll be more diligent about keeping my match schedule. Promise.

I like it!

I haven't listened yet, but the concept leads me to believe that this is the most esoteric album I have ever downloaded.

You promised you wouldn't tell anyone about me and Zircon's secret project!
