    Metroid 2

    Is that what you call it? Dome? I always called them the ruins.

    I don't actually have any ideas for Dome, I just thought MAYBE I SHOULD REMIX THE SONG THAT PLAYS IN THE RUINS SOMETIME

    I dunno

    It's also the only time anyone has ever even thought of covering that track, lol.

    The only real way you can "chat" with me is in #soundtempest on irc.esper.net. You could also just PM me I guess.

    I wish people would post about this shit on Anime Remix :(

    we have nice small threads for different things about anime!

    p.s. Zeon mobile suits kick the shit out of anything the federation has to offer. HARD FACT

    Zakus are the most recognizable mobile suit other than the Gundam itself.

    Except Anime movies somehow have less budget than their TV counterpart.

    Anime movies suck.

    Which anime movies have you been watching? Have you seen Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society?

    IIRC Production IG had all this money after making the SAC series, and with their budget they were debating on using it to make another GitS series, or a full length movie. They went ahead with the movie :P and it is quite good.

    Meanwhile, I finished Sketchbook Full Color's, and unnecessary apostrophes aside, it was unbelievably cute. Kinda reminded me of my own high school.

    Suggestion: FLAC remixes?

    in Site Issues & Feedback

    You're not going to get FLACs of all the remixes, particularly the older ones, but it would be nice if more artists offered lossless downloads for their stuff and then gave everyone a link to that in the review threads. However, OCR is pretty resistant to offering lossless options, mainly because yeah, the bandwidth consumption would go through the roof, but having it be torrent only would work, I suppose. Most people who can play lossless files probably also have bittorrent clients. How else are you going to get flac files, really?

    Toontrack Electronic EZX

    I'd say some of that rant was meant for Scott. Overdefensive, maybe. And I know that you were partially jesting. But you can't deny that you were asking for the "there's nothing wrong with using a tool" rant. :)

    I feel like it's just a tool for the lazy. I have no problems crafting drum beats off of oneshots, especially since I have so many drum samples already, and I can track a good beat very efficiently without using VSTs. By all means, use EZDrummer, it's just not for me. I'm guilty of being quite lazy in the past though [hence analoq's "absynth presets and drumloops" description of my music in the past] but I have a lot more fun doing stuff from scratch now.

    I just find the one line "midi files that cover lots of electronic styles" to be rather silly, because electronic drums are split evenly between spliced up sampled drumloops and really really simple trance/dance drum machine beats. The amount of processing needed for most spliced up breakbeats is something midi files usually can't contain, and the trance/dance beats are so simple in their construction that requiring a midi file for kick-hat-snare-hat is just silly.

    I'm just being Andy Rooney though, you don't have to listen to me.

    Well it depends

    What are you looking for, action? slice of life? romance? it's hard to say just "anime" since it's not really a genre, it's just a medium.

    I mean I could tell you to watch what I'm watching, Sketchbook Full Color'S, but I dunno if you like slow meandering plot involving girls with social anxiety disorders and cats.

    I do though. so fucking cute I could just die

    MAGFest 8

    in General Discussion

    I think in some way that my very presence offends Brushfire

    You know what's great about magfest though? The whole event is really good at clearing up all the douchery that happens online [see magfest 5 djp+virt shenanigans], and when you meet people in real life you see that they're pretty cool, except for Bluefox, but... he's Bluefox, lol. But yeah, you can be bitter enemies online and then meet at magfest and be totally cool with each other afterwards - I've seen it happen lots of times. It did wonders for myself and virt, I used to think he was a gigantic douche because I only remembered him from IRC a long time ago, but we hung out at magfest 4 and found out he'd changed A LOT... now we're good friends :D

    It's also a good opportunity for me to give zircon some physical attention if you know what I mean

    oh boy
