Geoffrey Taucer Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Geoffrey Taucer I'll take Jade if somebody takes the DomZ (been talking to kunal about this, if nobody takes him up on GoW GrayLightning He has disappeared off the face of the earth. Seriously, I'm not joking at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleJCrb Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 priZmgoat GrayLightning PriZm stopped doing music several years ago when he got the programming gig with Ubisoft. Goat hasn't released anything since '07 and I'm not even sure he's around anymore, and Gray is most definitely gone from the universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geneson Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 None of the bad dudes up for mgs then?We can pick something else if we must. Man I really hope this still happens, the MGS theme embodies that whole video game hero feeling. And you guys would make it so kickass. and both had their boss themes rehauled for the Gamecube remake of MGS, and maybe some inspiration can be found there. I think at this point you guys, ktriton included, should just chill with your tracks and wait a bit, let's see what happens when the dust settles.

JJT Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 JUST SO YOU KNOW...We do not mean for this to be an actual "battle" with cruel intentions. This is fun. I mean, look at the tracklist so far! zyko vs. The Bronx Rican! Mustin vs. McVaffe! Joshua Morse and posu yan vs. Zircon! I think Geneson said it best: "Holy shit is this really happening or am I dreaming?" So let's not take things too seriously. And don't freak out if you see the one mixer guesting on the other's track. Also, we're still hoping to hear from: Darkesword Geoffrey Taucer A_Rival (maybe please?) priZm Scott Peeples (we can dream?) goat kLuTz Star Salzman Gecko Yamori Vigilante The Wingless GrayLightning Harmony Go. We heard from Darkesword. Try and keep up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level 99 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Any possible way there can be something to prevent too much overlap with the BadAss project? Or is this more of a "the more the merrier" on all themes thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustin Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 Let's say it's more the merrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktriton Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Yeah the more the merrier for sure. So right now we have the following tracks: [beyond Good & Evil] Jade / The Domz | Taucer / ???[Castlevania] Simon Belmont / Dracula | SnappleMan / Ailsean [God of War] Kratos / Zeus | ??? / ktriton [Grim Fandango] Manny Calavera / Hector Lemann | djpretzel / ??? [Kirby] Kirby / King DeDeDe | talc / ??? [Mario] Mario / Bowser | McVaffe / Mustin [Mega Man] Mega Man / Dr. Wily | Another Soundscape / JigginJonT [Metal Gear Solid] Solid Snake / Liquid Snake/Revolver Ocelot | Fishy & Nutrious / ??? [Metroid] Samus / Mother Brain | BigGiantCircles / Mazedude [Monkey Island] Guybrush Threepwood / LeChuck | OA, Audio Fidelity, & Abadoss / Diggi Dis [street Fighter II] Ryu / Sagat | zircon / posu yan & Joshua Morse [Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles] Turtles / Shredder | bLiNd / danimal cannon [Zelda] Link / Ganon | José the Bronx Rican / zyko As far as Bad Dudes I think we're still waiting on: Dale NorthDhsu Bladiator The Guy (formerly mellogear) Level 99, which tracks do you foresee overlapping with your project? There's probably going to be SOME overlap I'm sure. Unless you guys are focusing on lesser-known/less-iconic villains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Well, it's not my project, I'm just on it. But looking at the list, the badass villain tunes that are present on bad dudes right now are: Mario Kirby Just trying to be preemptive, is all. I don't think anyone really complains about having MORE REMIXES, but in light of the multitude of projects, it's just good to check on these things. Some of those matchings look epic.

Sorry Jon; updating my previous post now. Mustin, this needs to be reflected in your first post as well. Lvl 99, okay. Not sure there's really anything either project can do to avoid further collisions. Especially on high-profile themes like those. Check in with us in a bit. Hopefully we'll have finalized our tracklist in the next couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustin Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 The list is current. And any overlap of tracks isn't anything to be worried about. Why would it matter? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 There is concern that thematically there's a huge overlap - it's unfair to the guys running BadAss. Ideally the overlap in tracks should be kept to a minimum if possible given that overlap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCR has the role of trying to promote albums from site projects - it completely swallows one project's such attention by taking the theme wholesale, albeit developed independently & further. It's kind of like a situation where for example two concurrent site projects are running for the same game, say like FFIV as a hypothetical. It's like sticking a big middle finger in their direction essentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of like a situation where for example two concurrent site projects are running for the same game, say like FFIV as a hypothetical. It's like sticking a big middle finger in their direction essentially. You make a valid point, but I also have to disagree with you. What about my album? The Bad Dudes already covered Super Dodge Ball, does that mean the music from SDB is now off-limits for remixing now and forever? Of course not. Mustin had the idea for that album independently of mine, even though the "ethnic feel" idea is the same for both albums. Like then, I highly doubt he saw the project thread for Badass and went "OH YEAH? WE'LL SHOW THEM!" and starting working on a bad guy album. I can't speak for The Joker and pu_freak, but I believe that they're not negatively concerned at all with the idea of another album with roughly the same idea as theirs. I don't see it as a middle finger as much as I do a thumbs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it as a middle finger as much as I do a thumbs up. Agreed totally. Not to mention that this is a different concept from the Badass project. So no overlap there. That should really be the main issue given your concern, Bahamut. I can see the similarity...Villain themes vs. Hero/Villain battles. But the concept is still unique for both projects. Also, I'm guessing that the remixes will reflect the conceptual differences. And to Mustin's point, as the projects are different, it really doesn't make sense to worry about the individual remixes. Hell, we put out an EP last year of nothing but Sagat remixes and that went over with fans just fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustin Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 Walan for the win. Also, I disagree with the whole middle finger thing. The themes are very different, despite sharing sources. I think you'll see that, in the end, it won't matter. The Bad Dudes project "Thai Guy" was critically acclaimed and well-received and it was 10 arrangements of the exact same source. I'm definitely feeling that there's always room for one more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
