I remember some of those awesome songs. Didn't check the site frequently over the last year, so currently I'm downloading the torrent to fix that. Keep the good stuff coming.

Sounds like a coal idea which can lead to pretty good songs, but there are some issues. Like Gario mentioned, the concept might make it difficult for some mixers (especially starting mixers) to enter. They are restricted to a 'feeling' of the song, and they should at the same time keep the ratio of source : original in mind, there is not much freedom in that. I wouldn't stick to a ratio directly. It might be a better idea to start with something between 60-90% source and later make a more specific ratio, depending on the outcome. I suggest to just try it out. Select a suitable source and make sure all rules are clear, also for voters. The Competition Code of Conduct written by DarkeSword are important to keep in mind with that. Based on the entries and comments you get it is always possible to make some adaptations to improve the contest. Find a good moment to do the first round; WCRG will end in a week, other contests like RMWtS probably start running after that; try to find a good moment to start the contest (when people are not busy doing songs for other competitions).

Send your source as fast as you can, but before this Saturday, 7 September 2013. You can find the votes with comments here: http://compo.thasauce.net/votes/index/PRC252 hoboka voted as follows: Here's my vote: 1)DrumJ8 2)Xsquader 3)OneUp DrumJ8: 1st place for me, because his idea was, imo, the most interesting and well executed. His idea of integrating the solo snare pattern with both the Yehat and Fanfare source tunes was freaking cool too. Production sounds somewhat low-fi, but it sounded like true synth pop from the 80's, which felt more genuine than Xsquader's take (to me). The other contestants had cool ideas too, but I think that DrumJ8 is king of the hill, this time around.

Note that when the results will be announced thursday the scores are modified because I'll add hoboka's vote manually. I'll post the vote of hoboka (and his comments) together with the results. Interesting voting so far. No one is gonna win by default. Voting is now also extended on ThaSauce (I forgot to edit that earlier). There are two days left.

I've uploaded your song. Two songs so far. I'm excited to see more songs coming up.

It started as a topic to question the future of Vgmix. But currently the site is up again (although it is still not functioning completely). Several people used this thread as well to give / ask old Vgmix songs since these won't be put back online at the new Vgmix.

Can you make a list of the songs you have. I think you're right about the spreadsheet, although I'm not sure (some of the unmarked songs are part from my archives or are OC Remixes here). It can easily be done with Winamp for example if you have that.

That's right, the Fanfare is your lucky source, because it is not very long.

The People's Remix Competition 252 PRCv10-18 Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition! PRC251 is only finished a couple of hours ago. Evktalo claimed victory, but DrumJ8 and Sggod89 weren't far off. Like last round, the upcoming round has two sources. The first source is selected by PRC250's winner, darkbrandflake11. Last rounds winner Evktalo also picked a source. After this round, everything returns to normal with one source per round (except when this round has a double winner).

Nice. From the four mirrors for the ZIP files (MP3 + ART only), only the last works.

Maybe a one day extention will help.

For anyone interested in some VG remixes done in the past, I uploaded a second archive with 109 old Video Game Remixes from over 5 years ago. The following songs are in that archive: https://sites.google.com/site/bambombim/OC%2BVG%20Second%20Batch.xlsx?attredirects=0&d=1 EDIT: Dropbox disabled the files for some reason (probably they are to big), so if anyone wants the archives or some songs of those, they can contact me via PM.
