Just wanted to add in my thanks to Aubrey for his services to OCR over the past years.

With supertux going down, it seems that a lot of the album pages are left mirror-less A lot of the remix album pages still have supertux links: some projects list them exclusively, some list several non-working mirrors, and other album pages don't seem to load at all. This is probably already known and being dealt with, but I haven't seen anyone mention it yet, so I thought I'd bring it up. You know, just in case.

Does it come with an endless loop of "Help me Obi Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope." on DVD? No? Damn.

The idea of searching by genre has been brought up plenty of times before. In most cases, the idea was shot down because it was believed that it would limit the exposure of certain remixes (ie: if a user searched exclusively for trance remixes, he'd miss out on all of the orchestral remixes, and vice versa, etc...). I think it was only recently that djp mentioned the possibility of a genre / tagging system being implemented in the future (see this thread, this post in particular). I hope I've summarized the situation well enough.

Glad to hear that you're working on another album. I absolutely loved Nintendosploitation. Nice job on the new track. Can't wait to hear more.

I agree, but for a different reason. Having the date to the left of the artist (ie: "2008-09-15 by analoq, Hemophiliac") just looks awkward to me. Though I should point out I like the new 'Latest Albums' section in the corner.

I think Ormgas is what you're looking for. There's a thread about it here.

I read the news when I got home this evening. Seems kind of sudden, it wasn't too long ago that he was touring with Gilmour. RIP, Rick.

I remember coming across a cover of that credits theme on a file sharing website several years ago. If I can find it again, I'll post it here.

There was a Super Mario RPG arrangement album released earlier this year: Heavy Troopa Is Ready To Launch! It's not an OCR album, but it does have songs by Mazedude and The OneUps, both of which have remixes here.

http://metroid2remake.blogspot.com/ I dunno if that fits your definition of 'done right', but if Nintendo were to release a remake like that, I know I'd buy it.

I just send an email off to BLueBeRRyKiWi, the guy who took care of hosting the site. Hopefully this gets resolved quickly.

Just out of curiosity, I did some searches on a few phone listing pages, and I found several people with the name Gray Alexander: one in South Carolina, one in Pennsylvania, and one in California. I've also found several listings for Grayson Alexander and Grayling Alexander. I'm reluctant to post the contact information here, mainly out of respect for the privacy of these people, but if anyone wants to attempt calling or writing either of these people, I can pass the info along.

Not quite. Final Fantasy is a Canadian solo artist. He has done video game music, though. From what I've read, one of his earliest projects was scoring part of a game, and one of the songs on his first album is essentially a cover of the Star Maze music from Mario Land 2.

I've got about 80+ vinyl, ranging from classic rock and disco to jazz and classical. I've bought most of them used at a local used record store, but I've also bought the occasional new record online. Some of my favorites: -Bobby Shad and the Bad Men - A 65 Piece Rock Workshop -Claudja Barry - I Wanna Be Loved By You (one of my favorites as a kid; it's pressed on transparent red vinyl) -Explosions In The Sky - The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place (the b-side of LP2 has a pretty neat etching) -Final Fantasy - Many Lives -> 49mp (7") -Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass - Greatest Hits (FINALLY found this one earlier this week!) -Led Zeppelin - IV/untitled (My father's copy. It's not in the best condition, but it plays through fine) -Pink Floyd - Atom Heart Mother -Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds -Pink Floyd - Ummagumma

Looks like the weather won't be cooperating in my area: Hopefully you guys get a better view.

Anyone else plan on spending the night gazing at the sky? Peak time is from 10 pm August 11 into the following morning until 4 am.

'My Frequency is 140.85' is by virt. (I think) it was the first song posted on the current incarnation of VGMix. 'Crystal Flash' is also by virt, from January 2005's Dwelling of Duels competition. 'Brinstar Unplugged' is also from DOD (January/February 2006) 'Protect the Starbase' (TMNT4) looks familiar; a quick google search reveals that it's a rejected mix by a mixer named Groggie. In fact, googling each individual remix name might be a good idea.

I just downloaded this, and will probably play through it later on tonight. I noticed a pxtone.dll file in the zip. Any chance that the developers of this game are somehow connected with Pixel (of Cave Story fame)? Or did they just use his music software?

Just say that you "feel that it just isn't right for you", and you should be good to go.

I was thinking about doing something similar with this song some time ago. Needless to say, yours is infinitely better than anything I could have pulled off. Very nice indeed! edit: I shared it with a few friends outside of OCR. Credit was given, of course. Hope you don't mind.

Glad to see that you're feeling better! ... Equally glad to find out you've got some remixes on the way. Can't wait to hear 'em!

I finally played through the game, start-to-finish, last winter. Even though I enjoyed it, I'm kinda glad they decided to release the veggie-pullin' SMB2 in place of the Japanese SMB2. I know for a fact that I would have become WAY too frustrated if I had attempted it when I was younger. For me, that's Mario 3, hands down.

I'm assuming the 'it' you are referring to is the third-party backup device. If the one you get is anything like the one I own (the one I linked earlier), there's no battery to worry about:
