  1. I haven't been aware of an arrangement of FF9 Terra on the site at all, but I do remember Destiny making a sweet rendition of it back at VGMix2.
  2. Haha, I'm trying to wonder how you can make something evil out of Tetris Nice changes!
  3. wtf Doug, your mother likes metal? O.O Either way, I might as well share some love for this as well. Of all the metal mixes that ended up on the projects, this ended up being one of my favorites, up there with "Live at the Sandopolis" and "Malicious Fingers". I'm often a fan of BrainCells's tendancy to make things heavier than they actually are and SnappleMan's melodic rock approach to his remixes, and the fusion together put together one heck of a head-banging result. If I was physically standing next to either/both of you, I'd hug and kiss you all over again because of what you did in this arrangement. Nice work
  4. Years of delays and restarts... ? A bit over the top imo.. It took over a year, maybe 1 and a half, but not years of restarts.... or did i miss something ?? I say blame it on Walan - he did the news post.
  5. "My Name is Nineko", anyone? But all jokes aside, thanks for the lyrics Dan. I haven't heard too much stuff from Milli Vanilli to be sure, but still, I'm glad you're having fun with all this game-based lyric writing stuff.
  6. Am I one of few that thought the lyrics made the song? On top of that, this is among one of my favorites on the project - hard to say considering there were many great songs on there, but this helps in putting in all the stops in making it stand out from the crowd. The voice itself is almost completely different to what I've come to expect from Dan B - more of a rock voice than the mellow tone I've come to expect from stuff like Invertebrate Retreat - and it's easily gone to show that with stuff like this, Dan B is heading in the direction of being a jack of all trades, whether it be musically or vocally. Thank you again for a great addition to the site and the project. Now, please provide the lyrics so we can sing along
  7. I agree. I can admit to be someone who does fanart (though more regular than the usual) and fanfiction (haven't written any since march last year tho). And when I do, I sometimes like to mess around with the original concepts, yet go for something as artistic as done on the project. From what I've witnessed on various fanart/fanfiction web pages, people seem to mainly praise even the most off-character fanfics (mostly yaoi fics... ouch) and have crushes on certain videogame characters expressed in artwork, yet thinking that videogame music should be left alone is a confusing thing to put through. I don't want to be the person to say that in front of anyone, but someone should. It should be a point worth taking into consideration.
  8. I'm aware of the thought of their "childhood" being ass-wiped, for lack of better terminology at this time of day. That's why I said if they want to hear the original soundtrack, they can grab the original soundtrack. I do bear the thought that they might have wanted covers though. While there's usually nothing wrong with that (read: xoc), I seem to find the appeal a little limiting and sound better with the original sound chip they originated from. On top of that, I wouldn't go as far as calling that method complete poppycock without reasons to back it up, so people doing that to OCR seems to make things feel uncomfortable. But there's possibly no point in arguing as it's other peoples' opinions at the end of the day. Scott, I much appreciate your "essay" on this (LoL~!!). Though I wonder what other people have to say about that, I'd just finish up with a simple "thankyou very much"
  9. Larry (and everyone else who replied after him), those posts are from August. They must be merely based on the teaser site. Though yeah, I don't get why they hated OCR so much. If they want the original soundtrack they can just listen to the original soundtrack. What we have here is 35 different interpretations of some classic Sonic music, and there's no way we'll change that to be as really conservative and unpassable as they want them to be, right?
  10. Don't worry about it, Hadyn. If he wants to state his opinion via mentioning its strengths as well as its weaknesses, that's fine. At least he's not directly flaming Het's and Joker's capabilities.
  11. Whoa, thanks - I thought I'd get shot down for that O.O If it helps, I'm getting the real thing for Christmas, so the acoustic is becoming a bit of a passion at the mo. I still think that my drums sound like they were processed in a washing machine, but nevermind. All's well that ends well
  12. Blueberry already said that about a page ago, Walan.
  13. I never thought of Ecco homages to be honest but now that you mention it, yeah, it does seem to be similar in feel to that kind of ambient feel the Ecco musics had. Not quite there for a request, but you just earned yourself a cookie ^_~
  14. I understand the strain it can get to re-hosting everything all over again. Still I'm glad it'll get corrected (again?) down the line if not already. Thank you. oh and... Indeed you got that right, but there's still more. From the top of my head there's about five or six other minor references fit in there. Should I say that the first person to find about four of these gets a remix request?
  15. For what could have been the nineth-twelfth time, my competition menu track is supposed to be labelled as Schumacher's Bar. Why do people forget the apostrophe and shizzle? Either way, I'm glad it managed to come through. I heard some tracks by preview weeks ago, and went for Dan B's and GameBoX's stuff first on release. Tonight, I will hear the full thing and I will love you so much for working so hard on making this baby shine
  16. I didn't even read that X.x but yeah, thanks for the heads up. I'm just about to post the track. Sorry if I waste two hours of your downloading time on something that you could have been doing proactively (!)
  17. Eh, I'll probably make them more public once I either get more of the foundations down, or I start getting desperate to find a guitarist. But I appreciate the support. [EDIT: On second thought, Frank's not here. Let me sign up on your message boards, greasemonkeys.]
  18. I have a WIP, dood! </prinny> If I catch you on MSN I'll present it to you.
  19. I remember someone who covered the mix and had it on OCR, but had it taken down in one of the earliest lockdowns for being a rip of the source tune. Still yes, Labyrinth needs some love. I initially wanted to waltzify this song for one of the DoD Free Months, but that idea seems to keep falling through. I still hope to tackle it someday
  20. The music side should be fine as far as I'm concerned. It's just that they've been having problems with artists more than anything. Now I won't be surprised if Summoning of Spirits gets pushed in here too >.>
  21. I'm still waiting on feedback of my own track. It's been a month and nothing is going on. No offence, but are you purposely trying to cut me out of the picture?
  22. Fixed. I thought he covered Wing Cap? Still yeah, as my post was trying to say, it's just really tough making a mix out of something so short, so judging by what we've seen in prior coverage, if anyone wants to make the songs justice they must have some really, REALLY good compositional skills. I'm sorry if any of my posts in here came off of snobbish
  23. It's short tracks that worry me when going for coverage, hence why I'd rather let people choose stuff on Children of Erdrick. Still, does anyone remember Sonniku Ganbatte from Hedgehog Heaven? That's an example *not* to do it.
  24. I'm more concerned about Canvas Curse being pretty easy; that was the only downpoint when deciding on my second game for the system from last Easter (which ended up being Animal Crossing: Wild World). Also, may I need to stress that if anyone needs a good platformer fetish, Sonic Rush is a high recommendation; makes good balance of the DS features (except it doesn't use the microphone ) and has good challenge to boot, especially when it comes to getting A rankings on every level. I know that it can actually get a little OTT for your "girl" in question, but you may never know what she could consider
  25. I know it might be good, but that doesn't stop the fact that I can't play this type of game to save my life. In fact, I can't play sports sims at all unless it's with cars.
