Ooooooh, this is fun!

There's a new Sheriff in town and Sheriff Link's music has not been remixed.
In all seriousness, I would like to make a request for "The hidden Village" from "The Legend of Zelda; Twilight Princess: to be remixed. I have not the talent nor software/instruments to do this myself. It already has a great western feel of which there is distinct lack of on the site.
 
This is all I'm my opinion of course

I need to find a time to listen to this all. So hyped!
I picked a track at random for now, and Uwa! Mega Temperate is my favorite thing now.

Well, to be fair, if you strip an arrangement down and take off the elements that make it different from the source, very often you get something that is... well, not interesting and too conservative. That's probably why YoshiBlade added all of those cool, interesting elements on top of the arrangement.  
There are mixes that change up the form of the track, but that's not a requirement for a track to be posted - it just can't be a straight cover with nothing added to it to make it really stand out as his own. As far as I can tell, it's not against site or submission policy to have a mix that stacks a whole lot of other elements over a relatively straight arrangement, as long as the source isn't straight sample'd from the game itself throughout (which isn't the case here). In this track, all of those extra elements, the gating of the theme, etc., add a lot of extra atmosphere. Changing the atmosphere of a track (or making it so much more intensely "that atmosphere", like in this track) does count as change, as far as following OCR standards is concerned, and adding elements on top of a straight source certainly counts as "adding a personal touch", as well.
This is a good example of a track that's extremely conservative that got posted (along with the judge decision that lead to it being YES'd) - very conservative, as far as arrangement goes, but it adds so much flavor in how it presents the material, in the little bits added on top, that it got a pretty solid pass from the J's. Following the form of a source isn't an issue as long as you do something to it to really make it your own. On that front, anyway, I think YoshiBlade would fare alright.

If you were to move a bit away from the original, it would be an awesome addition to OCR. Nintendo hasn't made a new F-Zero game and it'd be great to hear more remixes for F-Zero in general. This was one of my favorite tracks in FZX. Sounds pretty good.

This is more of a remake then a remix, but it sure sounds good.
I like the tone set by this. It's a little bottom-heavy on the EQ, but I don't think that's a problem in this case - I like that boomy drive and the lead with a tad more reverb and a tad less volume is quite effective, IMO.
However, it's a loop and becomes repetitive quickly. I think what this is missing is a screamin' lead guitar solo at 1:34 and an epic ending of some sort...

So hey, Undertale is a year old. Not too early for a MASSIVE TRIBUTE ALBUM, is it?  Doug Perry (you may know him around these parts as DrumUltimA) and the Materia Collective organized this tribute album with nearly 100 arrangements of the game's soundtrack. I'm on the album with Marshall Art, and there are at least a handful of other posted OCReMixers on here, so I think it's kosher to have a thread in the community forum, right?

I'm impressed how fitting it is that you combined the percussive elements with the theme playing thru flute - it creates a vivid soundscape that paints more of a middle/south american vibe for me than african.  Well done!

Hello everybody.
It's been a long time until I post something.
I tried this tonight with african samples. Absolutely not perfect but I liked making this. I this that everybody knows the original track!!
 

I like the silhouette DK in the first post and how he's identified with the one article of clothing he wears. I like the F-Zero one because I'm a fan of that series. It looks like it's paying homage to the first F-Zero and F-Zero X with the SSS in the corner and the course they're on. I like the F-Zero X quote in the blimp teleprompter, too. I wish they'd make another F-Zero already.

I think there is some wild variation in the quality of the work and some strange inconsistencies that seem to have been from what seems like the usage of varying existing work in a collage esque manner.

However there is a lot of potential.

So my feedback is to work on consistency and balance. If you must reuse and transform existing material. Try to avoid lossy images. (JPGs with lots of compression) and save the final work in at least a 100% quality JPG to reduce compression marring your work.

I'm not an artist, so I can't give meaningful feedback necessarily, but I dig this stuff!

I request that my name be changed to 'BlueTronic' please

So I'm thinking an alias change is in order (after like eight years using the same one). I'd like to change my name from "SiriusBeatz" to "Skyline Drop."
Kudos to anyone who catches that reference.

Not sure that kind of drastic change is even possible.
(You see what I did there?)

I think I'm mainly known as TychoRoc on most internet sites though I'm not sure whether I should change it to TychoRoc or TychoRocfeather. I'd say change it to TychoRoc if you don't mind please.
Thanks!

I Was wondering if I could get my name changed from wolfmizu(i was a wee bit young when I Picked it) to GSO (Gaian Symphony Orchestra)

Yes, yes it is.

To the mod with name changing powers, please can I be renamed "Sbeast"
Cheers

I would like to have my name changed to: The Author
I'm quite sure my name changing won't cause the end of the world, and thanks in advance for the name change.

Can I get my forum name changed to 42?
Thanks

Nothing gets past you.

Oooh, EMBLAZONED. Ok, I guess I'll try to speed up wrapping up my project then. I'll want to discuss the very last stages with you, but in that thread or over PM.
