*Staggering out of foggy internet cave with undone tie and pizza-stained-shirt* I'm in for the last hurrah! Composing for PRC was a great experience and I really appreciate the community for making little events like this, it was great to mingle with other artists, so thanks to Bundeslang and everyone else involved with running this!

Source Tunes: Smithy Battle 1 and 2
 

I'll take normal sea stage (Lunge Fish)

I put you both for the normal version of the stage mentioned by both - if you want the critical version of the song instead, let me know and I'll update it.  I appreciate your contributions!

I'd love to join this project, Tetris Attack is a childhood favorite of mine.  I'd happily start with Bumpity or Garganta Blargg if they're available, but will gladly take any other track that's up for grabs.

Tetris Attack Album

This was a great game I played with my wife when we first got married nearly 20 years ago.  The original album project was set up at that time and I had accepted 3 songs.  The original thread is still around and there was plenty of interest at that time.  The songs I worked on I did a lot of it when I was sent to Louisiana for Hurricane Katrina relief (I built/maintained the supporting software for various gov't agencies, like power, rebuilding roofs, etc).  It was here that I had a lot of time (no internet, very little power except through the RV as there were no hotels) and being alone at night I just wrote music (3 songs).  In any case, I loved these songs and I wanted to put them towards the album - it was abandoned so I decided to start a new one.  I'm looking for people interested and will ask to move this to the album thread if I get enough interest.
I'm also thinking of possibly doing more puzzle game albums depending on how this one turns out.
I plan on programming the website - though I may recruit some highschoolers/college students (friend's kids) looking for experience to add to their resume.
Positions Recruiting:
Remixers / Musicians Art Co-director: someone who has led albums before who can help me organize this (tell me what I need to do, what I'm missing, etc). Rules:
Each song has a core instrument/style of play to represent the character and its critical/panic.
For example, Raphael the Raven (Lunar) stage and the panic/critical stage would both be a violin.  The normal stage would be playful violin but the panic/critical would be a horror violin style.
The actual genre of music could be anything as long as the normal stage has a positive vibe and the panic stage has an aggressive/panicked vibe.
I'll clearly add a list of each instrument corresponding to each character/stage below - though this is currently in progress.

The People's Remix Competition 461
PRCv20-02

Hello everyone and Welcome to the People's Remix Competition!
This is the second round of the season and the last round with sources selected by winners from Season 19. TheVideoGamer picked his source as winner of an earlier round, Souperion was the winner of the anniversary round.
This round is located at:
https://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC461
 
One important change in the rules is that from now on most of the source limitations are removed. The winner of this round still may pick the next source, he/she also may pick a source which already have songs at Ocremix. Also past PRC sources may be picked, except for the sources which are already picked in season 19 (last year). It still must be a Video Game source.
So even Ice Cap is allowed for a PRC source from now on.
 
Source 1: Super Drift Out (Super Famicon) - Title
https://compo.thasauce.net/files/materials/PRC461_Super_Drift_Out_-_Title_Theme.mid
 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Drift_Out
 
 
 
Source 2: Mega Man ZX: Advent - Target Chaser
https://compo.thasauce.net/files/materials/PRC461_MMZXA Target Chaser.mid
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mega_Man_ZX
 
 
 
The deadline is Monday February 13th 2023 at 10:59 am ThaSauce time (18:00 UTC, 19:00 GMT), check the link https://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC461 for the exact time left. Make sure that the song is uploaded to ThaSauce or that there’s a download link posted in this thread.
You may enter as many mixes as you like and work with as many people as you like on each mix. You are free to create a second ThaSauce account for that if you use ThaSauce, it's needed to be able to upload a second remix if you use ThaSauce. Of course you can also upload it somewhere else and put a download link in this thread.
Do not make qualitative comments on an entry until the results of the vote have been posted in this thread.
To participate it is enough to remix one of the sources. Remixing both in one song is encouraged and will be rewarded with a 3 point bonus. TheVideoGamer and Evktalo can take part by remixing the source selected by the other or remixing both in one song. They only have a double vote if they don't participate (or mix only their own source).
Mixers cannot vote for themselves but if they vote they receive a free first place vote added onto their score.
The winner of this round may select the source for PRC463. This also may be a source with an Ocremix or a past PRC source, except for sources which are mixed in season 19. It must be a Video Game source.
 
You can find the full rules list at this page as well.
 
GOOD LUCK!

Hey! I haven't posted here in a long time...
Anyways, I recently started a project of making my own OST for a game that doesn't exist (ideas exist in my mind but I'll likely never do it haha).
So far I've uploaded 5 tracks:
#1. Intro - Meant to play alongside some intro cutscene of sorts, maybe with some battle and the aftermath.
#2. Menu - Meant to be funky menu music.
#3. Prison - Meant to play on the introductory level, which takes place in a creepy prison, hence the music being calm and somewhat eerie.
#4. Prison Boss - Meant to play when you battle the Prison's guardian.
#5. Castle: Garden - Meant to play on the first proper level, so it's adventurous and fast paced (mostly).
Hope you enjoy! Any feedback is appreciated, though the mixing and production aren't meant to be super polished as I'd rather compose tracks than produce them at the moment.

And here we are yet again. Another year has passed and the latest AOCC is done and ready for consuming. For the moment, it's a link to my Dropbox. But once Dyne gets the site ready, I'll change it go there.
From all of us who took part in the overclocking of Christmas this year, we all hope you enjoy the music

I'm in!

I'm in!

It's July 9th. It's hot, it's humid, and people are still setting off fireworks at one in the morning. But you know what else is being set off?
That's right, it's time to start recruiting for the next An OverClocked Christmas album! Yep, we've got a good five and a half month before the due date, so let's see how many people are interested in taking part for the sixteenth entry in this (usually) happy, seasonal project.
As usual, this project is open to any and all OCR members, regardless of whether you're a posted remixer or not. You want info? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE INFO... but I'm gonna give it to ya anyway...
When's The Project Deadline?- December 20th, 2022 at 11:59 P.M. EST.
This is now a REALLY hard, non-negotiable deadline, since it's very close to Christmas. We've had lots of last-minute entries and updates over the years and, to be perfectly honest, it shouldn't be that way. With months of time, having to hold off as long as possible for people made things pretty hectic for myself and Dyne in the past. Treating this project like a college paper that doesn't get worked on until the last minute got annoying rather quickly when it kept adding up to lots of hurrying year after year, with last second updates to artwork and retagging/reuploading things. As such, you have until one minute before midnight EST on December 20th to get me the final WAV or MP3 of your song. After that, you're shit outta luck until next year. I need time to do everything, including possibly making a little website to host this project if Dyne isn't online for one reason or another. So this deadline's set in stone... PERIOD.
What Information Does The Coop Need?- When you send me your final versions, I'll need what name you want to use (real or remixer handle) and the name of your remix. Please, come up with something when you send me links to the file, rather than just giving me a file called "ff6-owa-v3f.mp3" and nothing else. You don't have to tell me what song you're remixing, but I do need a name. Plus, if you have a website you'd like to pimp, supply that as well and I can add it to the MP3 tags.
What Can Be Remixed?- Any song, really. Traditional Christmas carols, video game music, published music by a signed artist, music from TV/cartoons/anime... whatever gets your heart racing and into that Christmas spirit. This isn't an official OCR album, so you can draw from more sources than just VGM. Plus, you can take a non-Christmas tune, like the Main Theme from Space Harrier, Stage 6 Mission 2 from Metal Head, or I Defend STM from Truxton II, and turn it into a Christmasy one. So know that it's not limited only to songs that are Christmas-like to begin with. All that said, do keep in mind that if you want to submit your song to OCR later, you'll need to keep this site's guidelines in the back of your mind. But for this album, you can take it in just about any direction you want and get as crazy as you'd like (but please, no "Silver Bells" done in farts or something).
How Long Can My Song Be?- As long as you want it to be. There are no restrictions on this, so whether it's 1:30, or 9:51 with a five minute guitar solo ala Metallica, it's all good. But again, if you want to submit your song to OCR later, keep their guidelines in mind.
What Genres Can I Remix In?- Again, the door's wide open here. Rap, Metal, Pop, Piano-solo, Orchestral, Jazz, 8/16-bit, Barber Shop Quartet, A capella, Death Polka... it's up to you where you want to take it.
What Format Should I Submit My Song In?- WAV or an MP3 of at least 192KB/s quality. I'll be tagging the MP3s and making MP3s from any submitted wavs, so you don't have to worry about that. But, if you'd like your website to be in the MP3 comments section, be sure to give it to me when you submit your song.
How About A Little Music To Get Us In The Mood?- To help everyone along, here's a YouTube list of Christmasy tunes made by Ocre a number of years ago...
https://ocremix.org/community/topic/32727-an-overclocked-christmas-~-now-recruiting/?tab=comments#comment-676914
What's The Website's Address Again?- It's got a new home at... http://williammichael.info/aocc/ This album will still be downloaded there as well, as Dyne will continue to host the albums on his site.
How Do We Contact This The Coop Person?- If you've got questions, comments, concerns, want feedback, or your track is done and ready to be sent to me, you can PM me here on OCR, or send me an E-mail at thecoopscorner@gmail.com. Just be sure you remember to include a link to your remix, or attach it to your message.
 
So yeah, there you go. You've got over five months to get something done for the lovely people of OverClocked Remix and the billions of listeners around the world who've become followers of our project.
Good luck, have fun and make everyone some Nice Work™!

Count me in:)

Feels like just yesterday we were doing this. Put me on the roster, I love seasonal work.

I'm cutting it way too close, but I got something finished.
