This community helped me meet one of my very best friends and I will always be grateful to Larry Oji!

Well... it's 13 years later but, I think it's worth a bump... somehow this thread through a series of chain reactions ended up getting the song to be briefly featured in a summoning salt video at exactly 13:37 timestamp:

First story video set in the fictional cybersoccer universe that ties together several of my albums, including an announcement at the end:

I made this video in anticipation of this song one day being posted, in case anybody was curious where the title of the remix comes from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQS2_Mt6_Lc

well for anybody who missed it, I decided to go ahead and upload the full stream, I think I'll do that every night, it's easier than making a bunch of highlights, I used annotations with timestamps [also a comment with timestamps] to make it convenient to skip to all the real jam portions: Hope to see some more of you there tonight, 7PM EST!! http://www.hitbox.tv/shnabubula So eino if you happen to wake up briefly then just stop in and say hi ha, I'm sorry that the time might be inconvenient, at the moment, this is the earliest I can manage to do on a consistent basis!

Hope this is okay to post about here, I apologize if I'm overstepping. Last week I came on stream almost every night and had fun messing around, jamming various vgm tunes as well as free form improvisations using different layering techniques and other stuff, it was so much fun that, seperate from the more formal "performance" streams I've done, I'd like to make this a regular thing, so to start, I'm gonna be trying at the very least for this week, but if it goes well, we can continue this indefinitely, an hour long jam stream, every night at 7PM EST @ http://www.hitbox.tv/shnabubula I know there are rules about posting videos in gendisc, so I do this with caution, I just want to show an example or two of the kinds of thing you can expect on the streams however, I'd be okay if these videos are MOD-edited out of this post, so long as the stream link itself can remain. Those are examples of some vgm synthesizer jams, and here's an example of some alternate kind of just fun improvising, this was actually done live, on the stream I recorded both layers, in this video I just merged them together visually, so on stream those viewing saw it put together in two stages but it sounded just like this, only without the ghost shnabubula [mario kart time trial reference] i apologize again if it's not okay to post this here. Having been a long time community member and contributor I hoped it wouldn't be overstepping bounds, but if it is I completely understand. I'm just excited about this project and what to give as many people an opportunity to come in and hang out/be a part of it as possible. Already a lot of community members have stopped by to show their support, and it means a tremendous amount to me when I see an old familiar OCR username show up in the chat.

This will have to be discussed with the game director, as of yet I only have permission to release them in this format, as far as an official soundtrack album through bandcamp or something, that is possible, but not yet worked out. I'll definitely be pushing for something of that nature and I will give an update if we're able to move forward with that. Also, thanks a million for the support Shariq, really glad you enjoyed piano+violin versions!

I wrote an entire snes-style soundtrack with my own custom built sound-set a couple of years ago, for a game that at the time very closely resembed a real 16 bit JRPG. The game has since changed direction enough that this music will no longer be the best fit, but I just recently got permission to release that version of the soundtrack. I've been doing it 1 song at a time through my soundcloud. 18 are up now and more are coming soon. I think you guys will enjoy these. The square and enix OSTs from the 90s snes era are SUCH a hugely formative and inspirational thing to me, so getting to attempt this was a very powerful emotional experience and I'm really glad I got to do it.

I opt in.

So beautiful. Alex has gotten just ridiculously good.

Just commenting so that the review thread will show up next to the remix who inspired this one's title, we had assumed they would be posted in the opposite order!

give me "the castle" thank you

I can confirm this album is more than worth the price. Every single track is something special. Not to be missed!

is it this?
