Show 003 is now available at www.vgdj.net

Raymix. Please no, my voice has no pleasing qualities to it..

Yeah, someone already pointed that out. Anyway, Rayza/Aurora, how long do you think it's going to take to produce the average episode? Well right now its a weekly show coming out every monday.. 003 is gonna be posted in a few hours..

Yeh I'm moving it to a real host, shouldn't be down for long.. EDIT: Actually, don't know what the hell's going on. Moving it back to original place until further, clearer instructions arrive..

Maybe she'll hear it and kiss it better.. Also does anyone think it would be a good idea to get very quick little tags from OCR members that we can drop inbetween segments? Like "This is The Wingless and you're listening to VGDJ" or is it just a waste of time? You hear them all the time on the radio like "This is celebrity-1, this is celebrity-2, this is celebrity-3 and you're listening to this stations callsign.." Not bumpers really like were on VGF, just little 3-4 second drops..

She'll love it, but i'll have to side with creepy on this one..

Yeh I was thinking of maybe playing 1:30 instead of a minute.. Might make it "seem" a lot longer or something.. Also thanks for voting. The votes get wiped every month, but look what happens when I go wild at 3:30am the first of the month: http://www.rayza.net/misc/top10.jpg So until the big guys come and bump us out it may catch a few peoples attention and get some new listeners.. Lets hope!

Hey thanks for the feedback Linearity. Yes that would be a little more traditional, but with everyone and their schedules and technical issues its not always possible. For example I tried to get an interview with Kylejcrb tonight and that was just NOT working for us. Either I could hear him but he couldnt hear me, etc.. So I said just give me a clip of what you wanna say and we'll do that instead. Hopefully we can get a "real" interview thing going eventually but for now I'm just happy with getting other people involved in any way we can. I do edit the clips that they send in as well, getting rid of pauses and flubbed lines and what not. For Rama alone I think I snipped about 45 seconds of silence and other stuff. It's no ones fault, none of us are professionals, but I do try to keep the listener in mind and keep the whole thing rolling at a decent pace. So hopefully each show will be a small improvement over the last. Thanks again for the support and spread the word, especially to non-ocr'rs!

Yeh that hasn't come up yet but I'm sure when it does we'll take a little more time dissecting that since they are pretty major..

Yeh the segue. Real broadcasters make it seem so easy, but I'm sure we'll get better as time goes on. Those are some good suggestions always, about not announcing what we're going to talk about in 2 seconds heh. I'll keep that in mind..

Awesome, thanks y'all.. Thing is, we have to vote EVERY MONTH to keep the rankings going. Tho we broke 100 in 2 weeks, we will be able to do much better next month with a full 30 days. So yeh, keep it up and we'll be reminding you guys to vote heh.. I think the 'reading off the random mixes' thing should be shortened a bit, although Aurora still wants to read them off, maybe we'll omit the dates until the actual one is picked. It kinda drags on a bit long.. Also I've got word that a new DJP mix is coming out soon so we'll get a nice interview with him. Any questions in particular you'd like to have (potentially) answered? Thanks for the support.. EDIT: Just checked on Podcast alley, looks like we'll need about 65+ votes to get into the top 50.. That shouldn't be TOO hard Also, we need to make a promo/skit/commercial to give to Adam Curry the "Podfather" & inventor of podcasting that he'll play on his show. Any ideas for that as well?

Heh, yeh I found out after. For a host of a video game remix show I should know these things..

Yeh there were one or 2 projects we may have overlooked, but this will give us something to talk about for new time. Yeh Rama is just using an old mic attached to his monitor or something, nothin we can do about that at the moment. I've EQ'd it a bit and cleaned up some of the hiss, but ah well..

Well it could be interesting since I did use to give reviews in the WIP forum a while ago. Does anyone else think this would be a good idea?

Did you mean Ben Stiller or Vince Vaughn? Will Ferrell was in Anchorman, not Dodgeball..

Heh, I'd probably just be vulgar and lose her as a listener..

Show 002 is now available at www.vgdj.net

Talked a little about this project on VGDJ ep 002 which will be released Monday the 30th.. Hope I didn't get anything wrong, heh..

Well the thing is that theres not really a "best" of this and that, it's all opinion. OCR does not have a ranking or rating system on purpose, just a community with feedback. I honestly couldn't pick the best of this and that out of the huge amount of mixes OCR has. Yeh I use the WIP forum when I'm working on something, I think we can do a segment on that sometime..

Hey TimberWolf thanks a ton. It's always good to have a mirror around, especially since the mp3's are being hosted at Aurora's university. Who knows if they'll cut her bandwidth if they think something is up. I think we're ok for the main site, but the show notes + mp3 are on the university server so those would be good to mirror. Thanks again!

Yes, almost forgot about that. Updated & thanks..

Thanks for voting jmr.. Also we've got a scene report from Rama c/o ThaSauce, an "interview-mini" with Tefnek and hopefully some the other featured mixers can contribute something. The next show will have more stuff rather than an OCR101 course. So check it out and vote if your haven't!

Sure if you've got something scene-y to talk about we'll have you on. We have Rama doing a scene report which will hopefully be a regular thing..

Well if anyone really wants to know you can ask me and I'll check, but for now its just video game related bg music.

Yeh we thought of that like a day after we released the show.. Its gonna be in next one.
