  1. I am almost done with the "Nodame Cantabile" anime. I was expecting them to get orchestral music totally wrong, but it's incredibly flattering to the genre, very detailed, and even explains some of the finer points of music. It's like the Gunsmith Cats of classical music. With less nudity and violence :3 Anyway, it's done so well that it actually makes me appreciate classical/romantic/modern music more and I should find more of the music. Baroque still sucks though. Fuck baroque! I had to play Vivaldi before and his music just pisses me off :V
  2. This is a nice little update to the original tune, though I miss the pitch bendiness of the original's melody :V Maybe I will show this to WAVE if he ever comes on IRC again
  3. Zanz: I feel like a n00b but I can't recall the anime that the chick with the Sony walkman is from. halp
  4. I love LOGH. Honestly? Best anime ever created. Certainly the most epic in scope.
  5. Biggest musical achievement is still this. 2004? Fuck. Some other things: -Getting on OCR twice, both times barely scraping past the judges -Warfreak2's "D:\Remix" EP -Recently, completion of my full length album Garden Art and OverCoat - A Cyberpunk Adventure EP. I just wish I would get a little more in the way of reviews or feedback. -Even more recently, an OHC with C64 God Jeroen Tel, and then only trailing his win by 2 points. Then losing the next compo to Nario [who actually made a fantastic song] In general, people have started telling me they enjoy my music, like Mustin came up to me at Magfest 6 and was like "hey I heard your EP, I liked it." I didn't know he knew what I looked like. I'm still definitely not a crowdpleaser, nor do I want to be. I'm... not really used to people complimenting me. :V
  6. I fully endorse this website [with my 3 old/shitty vgmixes ]
  7. Ty's song isn't the only Dragon Roost Isle mix though :V. Nick Tam has a deliciously chill mix of that as well.
  8. Which makes cracking groups crack the software again, and then Steinberg starts adding dongles and shit, the cycle continues. It's actually not the pirates responsible for the needless copy protection, it's the companies who think adding more and more "protection" solves the problem, when in fact the cracking groups just crack the software again. Also, a lot of DAWs are way too much fucking money, though I can understand with all the licensing stuff that goes on, though there's relatively cheap or free software with about the same functionality available. Also, certain software that doesn't suck avoids this whole cycle by just being inexpensive and awesome. Granted, of course it's still pirated, but there's enough revenue there to ensure that every update is amazing. Waveform drawing? New Linux version? Fuck yeah. Why doesn't Steinberg or Cakewalk work on shit like that instead of stroking their dongles?
  9. Hmm... I'll think about it I can maybe make a nsf once I'm done with this other WIP...
  10. Maybe if the programs cost money or were unattainable by other means. But they're free so uhh, figure it out yourself :3 I got Reaper up and running in like 3 minutes.
  11. Call me when your game is ~90% complete.
  12. Zanz rules Still, I wish those Dirty Pair images were wallpaper sized. Hurr p.s. Dirty Pair > Dirty Pair Flash
  13. oh hey I just realized this thing's on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkWDPOqxq5U look familiar?
  14. I love Bubblegum Crisis :3
  15. I kind of wish you did There's that one SID tune by Mazedude, but that's like... 2 sid chips at once? so it doesn't really count? also: lol at zircon saying it's not technically a chiptune. Though I have plenty of old posts with embarrassingly incorrect shit in them myself. So am I to understand that if I make a chiptune arrangement of a streaming audio tune [that is, stuff like redbook audio and mp3], all I gotta do is slap some DSP on it and it'll be all good to submit? This vexes me, as I dislike DSP and I set sample interpolation to off :V then again, hurrrrr off to vgmix I go
  16. Submit any Mushishi or Naruto remixes here plx There are some free Koto/Shamisen/shakuhachi soundfonts, and taiko drums are easy enough to find. For quality you're gonna have to shell out some dough, look at Ethnoworld 4 or QL RA. I really wish there were more ethnic sample libraries though, there's not enough competition to lower the price :V desperate: sample Japanese folk music last resort: buy a shamisen :3
  17. bifecta'd why would you get anything other than the classic GB?
  18. holy shit anyway, IMO macross was amazing, also can anyone hook me up with a mp3 of "My Boyfriend is a Pilot?" Damn that song is catchy, and I can't find a recording anywhere.
