anosou Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 lol, Liontamer. Expect something from me in a few minutes. Think he appreciates trance?
Zombie Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Hmm... I wish i could contribute some music! Unfortunately I am in the same boat as Mr. Dreamer... I am not too good with music. I could always try something... I have made ok (well, what i think are ok) songs in the past but... Oh well. I look forward to hearing this mini album though, as well as blind recovering!
The Author Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I guess it's a good reason to try my best. I may have an idea, but then again, I think trying says a lot.
Bundeslang Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I'll see what I can do. I have a feeling many people are wanting to enter. The more the better. I have some time next week because I have to work in the early morning, I can do something in the upcoming afternoons/evenings.
The Author Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 My first attempt resulted in a catastrophic failure. I think it is an insult to all the music that was ever made. I failed.

The Author Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Well, it's a bunch of good ideas that don't fit together. It's like having lego blocks, constructs, duplo blocks and a puzzle of a cat and try to build a pirate ship out of it. I didn't even find a way to fit all the pieces together because the way I see it, they were not meant to fit together. I will try something however.
DrumUltimA Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 bLiNd was one of the first remixers I listened to when joining this site. I think I'll have to play some piano for him
The Author Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I decided to put my instruments on the actual song, tweak the tempo a bit and tweak some instruments as well. It turned out not half bad, but nowhere near good or even acceptable. Now imagine you try to build a song using the pieces I have in there... I can tweak instruments, but I suck at writing or rewriting music. It's the Miniboss music, with the plant boss specifically in mind. AGAIN: I WANT TO SAY I AM SORRY AND THIS SONG IS ONLY PROVIDED BECAUSE SOMEONE WANTED TO HEAR IT. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE IT ON THE GET WELL CD, I wouldn't want to break his heart with that horrible attempt at music.
anosou Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Yeah, got a solid base for a trance main theme-remix. His amazing trance remixes is part of how I first found the amazing variety and talant on OCR. Will work on it the coming days. This is for you bLiNd.
mattoco Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 My music production skills are not high enough yet, but I can definitely take a stab at some album art for this.
The Author Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 16 downloads, no comments, I feel we can safely assume I killed 16 listeners. I'm sorry.
Vivi22 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 My writing process is incredibly slow, but if I come up with something I'll send it along. I've always liked Blind's stuff. 16 downloads, no comments, I feel we can safely assume I killed 16 listeners.I'm sorry. I'm not dead, but I am seeing random patterns of flashing colour. Meh, it's not as bad as you seem to think it is, though it would fit better as an old 8 or 16-bit level theme than on a get well album I think.
PrototypeRaptor Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I'm in - got brinstar 2 (that weird red place) anyway, blind has some of the most meticulously mastered, mixed, and musical tracks I've heard on this site, or anywhere, period. He was actually the first person to get me into mixing (and apparently many others as well) I don't know how I missed this for so long, but here's wishing you back to your usual badassery in no time.

Actually, what I did was give up on changing the actual tune. I went back to a straight note for note instrument change using my settings. The actual composition I made was.. well, tragic. EDIT: I actually sped up the song a little bit.

The actual composition I made was.. well, tragic. Guess it's been a very long time since I played the game because I didn't notice. I'd still be curious to hear the original you did. Anyway, work has begun on a piano mix of the Theme of Super Metroid since the only plugin of mine that works for me right now is Ivories (haven't had time to get the others setup). We'll see if I get anything respectable done in time.

Awesome Jon. I been listening to your OC ReMix all day long. Rock oN!
DarkeSword Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 On the subject of album art: I'd really prefer it if people could draw something specifically for the album, instead of hunting down stuff that's already been done and Photoshopping.
The Coop Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Well, I was hesitant to say anything, but I think I have a goofy idea for the Brinstar (overgrown with vegetation) song (assuming of course, this hasn't transformed into some "OCR quality-only" project yet). But don't completely count me in just yet. God only knows how it'll work out, so we'll see. I should know by Wednesday if it's worth completing.

Hmmm, I'll give it a shot if I can, not much of an artist though, so don't expect miracles.

Anyone is allowed to contribute music to this album. I'll only cut it if it's just intentionally terrible or just plain painful to listen to. I don't think anyone would send me something like that though. Remember guys, the primary audience for this is bLiNd himself.
The Author Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 While I doubt mine is painful to listen to, I don't think it is appropriate to send it.
DrumUltimA Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Here Shariq - Solo Piano remix of Brinstar 2 - http://drumultima.home.comcast.net/forblind.mp3 Get well soon, bLiNd!!!
