Remixes that don't make the cut

[DJMetal]

So, at the risk of sounding like a noob (again), I was wondering if there is a place that remixes that don't quite make it onto the site go? Like...only about 10%-15% of submitted work goes onto the site...so if someone were curious as to what some of the work that gets denied sounds like, is there anywhere on the site that has the info on where to find those tracks (or less likely, anywhere on the site that has those tracks)? Or would we just have to check the judges review forum and look up the remixer's web page? Or is this line of questioning leading me to brick wall?

Thanks for any help in advance!

Whenever anyone submits a mix, they have the opportunity to request that a link to the mix be included in the judges decision post in the case that it is rejected. As you've noticed, however, most people don't do this. You'll probably have to ask the remixer directly in those cases. Hope this helps!

all rejected remixes go into the incineration chamber along with the weighted companion cube.

You guys rule. Thanks for the help and the linkies!

Most rejections aren't posted at R:TS or VGMix. Best bet is emailing the artist or Googling the song/artist info from the decision thread to track 'em down.

I am a bit nervous... I am just getting into mixing and remixing music, and am currently working on my first piece. However you guys look pretty rough, and I am afraid I am gonna get chewed pretty badly. Umm I wanted to check out someone's rejected song to get an idea of what I need to fix and tune up on my own remix. Also, kinda get an idea of what I should avoid as well.

Also... I want to get an idea of how strict you guys are by listening to some of the failed songs.

Any idea how I can listen to these?

You're going to have to contact the remixer through email (or private message, if they have a forum account). You can also try searching the WIP forum and see if it was posted there before submission.

you could just post it in wips. we're not ALL assholes here, after all.

edit: the bar is set pretty damn high. you need the complete package, and you need to live in WIPs until you've got it. i've been rejected 14 times =)

Oh okay, good idea. I am new to this place and am trying to get my bearings. But yeah, the WIPs look a bit more friendly for my current level of skill. I will post my stuff there when I am finished.
