Sanderson wouldn't be a good fit for Ice and Fire.

Not necessarily! Sometimes a mix gets subbed at a lower bitrate to fit into OCR's filesize guidelines, whereas album encodes are possibly higher. If you specify that you want the album version used, then we can make the mp3 ourselves and use that.

Don't sent Emunator a wave file, he isn't a judge. If you want to send in a correction, contact a member of the judges panel. Don't send a wave file either, send an MP3.

Yep. This.

Methinks you're reading the wrong books. xD

Caught episode 4. WOW! The music in this show is great!

It's probably not necessary to post about a new remix being posted to OC ReMix on the OC ReMix forums. xD

Ha! This is really fun. Really nice all around. Guitars are spot on. I don't mind the organ at all. Great!!! YES

Strings get pretty mechanical, especially the high marcato stuff; not terrible, just noting it. Overall though nice arrangement. Nice development throughout; I particularly like the percussion around the second half and the string embellishments. Very nice atmosphere. YES

This mix is dying in reverb. Fantastic percussion, but seriously, it gets overwhelming because of how much residual noise is just floating around. Gotta go back and do some serious work on balancing and mixing. NO, resub

Don't really see "genre-adaptation" as a bad thing. I think it's great. A great example of some more long-form electronic dance stuff. It's not about the melodies going measure to measure, it's more about the texture of the track and how it shifts and changes. Great soundscape, perfect take on the source. Really solid. I like it! The only problem is that at the end during the subdued outro there's some clipping or clicking or distortion. Starts at around 6 minutes. YES (conditional), need a fix on those clicks at the end (I contacted him about a fix, waiting for PM) Fixed version is fixed. YES

Kind of plateaus around the middle. Pretty nice sound, but there's not a lot of energy. Just sort of ends up plodding along after a while. That clap sound isn't really helping either; sounds really exposed and dry and outside of the rest of the piece. Around 2:20 things start getting mushy, with a lot of different parts layered over each other. Filtering out is a pretty cheesy ending, especially when it happens so quickly; if you're gonna vamp for an outro, it needs to be longer. The problem is that this song is basically all just vamp, which is not surprising considering that's all the stage select musics really are in Mega Man games. I think you need more variation in your piece, and you need to pay closer attention to how your elements are balanced. Not a bad start, but needs work. NO

Deia you are stupid and your face is stupid. > I love this. The energy is absolutely crazy in this piece, like a carnival on speed. I don't mind the dissonant section in the middle there; it's a good breakdown and separates well from the happy high energy stuff. Nice work! YES

Waiting for bellfix to vote.

Pretty good! Vocals need to sit in the mix better; too dry, but a good performance. Original sections need some source usage to put it over the top. If you can't find material in the source tune you've picked, go back to the rest of the soundtrack and pull something out of there; no reason to have completely original sections when there's so much material in the FF soundtrack to draw from. I like it, but needs more source. NO Oh, also, Larry, not counting the time between things like 1:25.75—1:26.75 is silly.

I think it sounds good. Really rockin' guitar stuff and good development throughout. I don't really hear the production issues everyone else is hearing. Drums sound fine to me. YES

What's up with the drums, bro? Justin's right, there's something up with your EQ on the kick and snare; sounds really muffled and sort of kills any impact they could be having in terms of lending energy to the piece. Arrangement is fantastic, but I think you ought to revisit your approach to the percussion. It lacks definition and turns into a mushy jumble. Really want to have this piece on the site. Let's get some production fixes and a resub. NO

Bassline is not a dealbreaker at all. It's in key, it works. Great feel. Lots of small touches like reversed samples and stuff. Really quirky electronic sound. YES

I have my own way of catching up on shows I've missed. Thanks though.

The only thing it's really lacking is the original theme song. I haven't seen this week's ep, but I really liked the pilot. Great action and voice acting. The second episode was a bit of a Moby Dick pastiche; I don't think it was a very strong second episode. I think this is one of those shows that will get better as they delve further into the mythology of the world. I'm on board.

I love that Wun Wun is a vegetarian.

Barristan the Bold more like Barristan the Badass am i rite?

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD

It's okay, kaijin's entitled to his opinion.

Dany and Jon are my favorites, although Dany's tale is much better when she's not sitting on pillows. I like where she ends up at the end of the book; on her own with only a dragon. As for the endgame, I think the writing is on the wall as far as the true conflict is concerned. None of this game of thrones bullshit everyone is playing actually matters. In the end, there is going to be some serious shit going down in the North, and the Others don't care who sits on the Iron Throne.
