Agreed; it's got my eyes scarred for weeks! I haven't registered over there yet but i'll run through a few of his pointers right here. No way man, if you want the world's worst DJ you should see some local college radio. Some of the DJs at my uni stutter like Hell, which is something that Larry often comes around with his interviews. That's because crap isn't supposed to be good in the first place. Pwnt. He's not meant to play video game music; he's here to play video game remixes if mostly anything. And even if you do edit it to say "most of it is crap that isn't video game re-arranements" I will prove it to you by going through a random show. VG Frequency #60.99 had a lot of tracks played, yet only 9 of which weren't relating to videogames. Point proven again, considering you thought that 80% of the tracks played aren't VG music? i'll shaddap and see what the mob wants with him

Neither did I, but i'm still having my fair share of enjoyment through this. You still should join, especially with the type of music you offer to the community and all.

If you need help with the hosting I'd offer some webspace in your direction

Spell my name right! (LT: Booyah!) And... yay, glad to see the status concerning the VG Freq shows here. I don't know whether to push you into uploading the 3 finished edits (it's been, what, 2 months since #56 went online?) or wait a bit longer (because good things come to those who wait), but whichever comes out of it I am of high anticipation of the files. Now if you excuse me, I've got the anti-VGF topic to read to... who in heck would hate your show anyway?

Spell my name right! Worth a total ROFL... way to go Shariq.

Sounds nice to see your thoughts on all this, but I still have to scroll a fair bit on my browser especially in a horizonal direction. It may have helped if the banner was shown in a top row, not part of the right hand column. These are the thoughts i have in mind for its design, in ASCII format - |----------| |THE BANNER| |__________| |B|========| |U|========| |T|OPENING=| |T|========| |O|==BLURB=| |N|========| |S|========| ----------~o I hope you understand what I mean O.o [EDIT: Okay so now I just realised that my thoughts were the same as what was on the main page, which seems to work a bit better through my browser in terms of scrolling. I still think some frames would make some aspects that bit cleaner. O.o]

I've been familiar with a fair chunk of Ziwtra's work in the past, and even here I'm impressed with this mix. I can't say I'm too hot on Terranigma but it's cool to see some expansive coverage for the game score outside the countless Crysta mixes it has mainly spawned. So yeah, it's about time I managed to catch onto a light write-up through listening to the mix, using the same analysis stylesheet that I adapted to as a Sonic Revolution judge. Having looked back at the judges decisions I feel that much of my qualms relating to the track are similar to Liontamer's on the quirk on that I've heard some much better production work from Ziwtra. But even with that into mind the overall arrangement, although a little bit over-liberal in parts, was still very cool and expansive for even source material like this one. So yeah, it's not the hottest of Ziwtra works the site has on offer but it's still a goodie if you want to see some slick quality Terranigma coverage. It was worthy of my time and it can be of yours too if you're a fan of the game/genre/musician. Hope to see more work from this user in the future!

Kyle, not everyone has a monitor resolution as big as 1024x768

I think he means having the organisational stuff on one page without having to scroll much. Have you tried frames? That can be an option to stop that happening. Mind you, good design so far ^^ Even though there's nothing on the links button (it's just the same as the main page) it's coming along firmly enough. Nice work, hermano.

How much does it cost? There's no need to panic too much about donating a bit of cash for doing a remix, i assure you. In terms of studio software for Windows, I think Cubase is a good program to use. I'm not sure if there's any demos of it online but I use it rather frequently in encoding my own piano works.

Well I can say I was fine with the singing, which seemed to blend in well in creating that haunting feel to it; it was just the talky bits in the intro that made me think that they could have been from the game given the rather different encoding quality taken through. O.o Still appreciating the decisions taken, I assure you.

Rock without guitars? How daring! But it is possible, I do believe.

Sorry to see that had to happen Sora. I'm sure you'll be able to manage to visit the web sometime before the semester starts again, although your efforts were well thought out. Blue: Yep... it's about time I came forth with my thoughts on your WIP ^^ Now I like the James Bond feel that has managed to come around this one. I think that has managed to add to a lighter chilled formation on that side of the mix, and I dig the direction that managed to come around it. Kudos on getting the record set up so far, and I appreciate much of the technical terms that came to it. I understand how tough it is to be able to mix the theme given its restrictions in terms of length, but I think there needed to be a bit more granted to it. So far I found the arrangement to be really conservative; I was hoping for some expansions to match with the level of New Beginnings or A Warrior's Path, which is what I usually come to expect from you. But knowing you I feel you might be able to get that established later on in the mix. I tell you what, sometimes it helps to look on remixes of other short themes and see how they got established to what they were. There were quite a few on Relics of the Chozo that did just that and still sounded slick (Premonition of Fell Purpose, Escaping Retribution and Unsettling Nature were a few of which that did just that), and much of the tracks for PRC 2-15 (you know, the Ghostbusters thing) also had their own specific techniques on broadening on a very short piece of music. Even the OneUps fleshed out their skills on a short piece of game music with "Isle de Kirby". Whichever happens, I'm sure you'll come up with your own strategy on how to make yours branch out. Nonetheless, best of luck with the rest of your mix!

As much as I love to see the vote continue (and in fact i do ) I'm feeling a little bit curious over the speed of the MP3s. Any idea when #51 will come out? Most students have started their summer vacation at least two weeks ago and yet nothing much is happening on that front o_O

Ah, more PriZm-y goodness and the site's first Xenosaga mix to boot. First of all I want to say congrats for what he has done in getting the mix onto the site - that's showing that with his second submissin he's become a firm establishment right across the community as far as the audience can see. For full emphasis i'll quote my VGMix review when it comes to sharing my thoughts behind all this :- As far as i'm concerned I actually digged a lot of the components that came together, and I found it to be one of the cooler mixes that managed to come out of the community on first exposure. I now understand where he's coming from with the ending sequence after he explained it to the judges, although it still feels a bit unsatisfactory in its execution; plus, EQ-ing out some of the hiss on the sound clips could help make them stand out a little bit better for what they were worth. But those are just two minor grips that I've had with a rather spectacular addition towards the site. Well done PriZm, and best of luck in future works and the judges' coordination on "A Star Freezes Over".

I think the files have to be uploaded with the appropriate info about them... and then there's the set release date and exposure to OCR's page. Simple as that. Although you can quote me wrong if i'm off-course with all this.... Anyway, I can't say I followed this project from the beginning, but I want to congratulate you and the mixers for putting the project together, DS. Although i'm not entirely familiar with the Kirby series I'm sure there'll be some good stuff coming out from this established OCR project especially with the lineup and promising concept that's at hand here. Again, well done for getting this firmly established!

I think the "why should you hate him" part was in relation to Larry, Nuts.

First of all, well done for shaping this project up over the past year-ish or so. I've got keen interest in seeing what will come out of it, especially with the slew of mixers on board. I wish all mixers the best of luck with what they do. Also, you think it's right that I drop some light critique for Ben's track here before it gets uploaded? Or is he unable to access it again? Speaking of critique, I hope to offer some last minute pointers to some of the tracks in the making if needed. Yes, I know i'm meant to be doing that sort of thing at VGMix, but from what i heard from a few people I know, OCR needs me more than them. Again, best of luck for getting the project secured

Black is the new black this season. Interesting tactics Paige (although I've yet to question how you can actually influence the judges to be in favor of me when I often take their quirks to heart anyway ).

Aw, don't feel too bad because the Judges' Panel aren't too hot over your work. I mean, look... Hemophiliac and Red Omen have tracks on Kong in Concert and they didn't get past the judges; neither did Jayson Litro when sending his track from Hedgehog Heaven. And heck, I've also got more rejections than actual postings! So just because the judges didn't like them doesn't mean that you're going to struggle with your effort. As far as we're concerned we really need the help over at this end of the field. Don't feel discouraged. There's still room to polish up your mix for a resub, and even if that doesn't happen you can still work hard on your efforts over here. We've all been down that path, I assure you.

Like I said to this user earlier, it's good to see him think hard for Valentine's Day, and the results are very sweet and reflective so it seems. I can't say I'm too much of a fan of the compression here, but that's understandable given how long the mix is as well as the ideas that were all incorporated into making this possible. I'll see if I can bring in a more detailed scope on this via quoting my (semi-old) VGMix review for it. As a whole I really appreciated the softer side as shown by him, and much of the tech elements have been intact to help make this shine. Likewise with the judges I still have a bone to pick with his orchestration techniques here, so with some thought on varying velocities/timings/attacks etc there could be some stronger results out of there. But nonetheless, even though I feel really bitter towards the whole aspect of Valentine's Day (please people, think about the singles!) I can't help but appreciate a lot of the ideas that came together. So yeah, kudos to goat for developing another fine mix to add to his extensive library.

As much as I love to support Paige in the whole thing, isn't hogging the poll cheating?

Considering you want this to be the first official VGMix soundtrack project I'm guessing there's still a feud against the site (j/k) wish I can help fill a spot but I've been torn away from college music labs for 4 months I could provide vox services if anyone wants them, though.

Technically speaking I'm an alto, so my range is from F2 (the F below Middle C) to D4. I did go as extreme as G4 as shown here but there's no way I'm doing that again in a fair while So yeah, I hope this helps out ^_~

If that's the case... yeah. Guess I'll need to send my Competition Menu mix to Snapple soon And yeah... I think I was a bit sluggish when catching onto that o_o
