The Damned Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 1. 25 remixes is doable, but I'm willing to sacrifice tracks that aren't done by the last cut-off point . It's better to release the best of what we have then put out a mix of quality. It's not fair to everyone, especially the listeners. 2. April is a target to strive for, but without knowing what kind of release schedule OCR has until then... Worst case scenario, the album gets released independently. But I doubt it would be that bad. OCR has a good history with releases and making them work. 3. I'm still willing to help when I can, but this last year was brutal for free time. This winter I have more (and since it's cold outside, I plan to be indoors by a computer more, so I should be around more until the end. 4. I do appreciate that WillRock took over and even managed to keep it going. I will send him a robotic hand-job machine for his efforts. (Not a valid offer, see details below*) 5. I also am glad that despite the activity of the people in charge, most of you still put the time and effort in. Thank you, especially for being patient. No robotic anythings for any one, though. I'm not made of money or robot stuff. *Offer not valid at all, in any way. Attempts to make your own robotic hand-job machine can, and likely will, result in severe injury. Do not try this, for the love of god. If you do, I'm not responsible for anything that happens. Unless it works out great, then I get some credit. Maybe a percentage of all sales. But if not, then I don't want anything to do with this matter.
Pavos Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I won't have the time to finish my mix. Matter of fact, I don't have any time to make mixes in quite some time since I need to travel awhile before I can record anything (unless I make a huge investment, which I won't do). Good luck with this project!
DetectiveTuesday Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Not sure what the story is with this project at the moment, but if there's room for more submissions I would like to so something from Mole Mania.
Brandon Strader Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 I don't want to drop mine. May is super reasonable.
Garrett Williamson Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Oh effing crap I've entirely forgotten about this .....I'LL DO SOMETHING I PROMISE
Argle Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Ugh, I so want to do this. Warlocked needs representation, yo.
Dave the Rave Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 I have 2 questions, if you don't mind me asking? 1) How's this project coming along? 2) Is "The Game Boy 25th Anniversary ReMix Album" the official title of this album or will it be called something else in the end? Again, I was just asking.
Brandon Strader Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 IF the name is up for debate, I'd like to toss into the ring... "Entering the Cage: A Tribute to GameBoy and Nicolas Cage"
Melbu Frahma Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 IF the name is up for debate, I'd like to toss into the ring... "Entering the Cage: A Tribute to GameBoy and Nicolas Cage" I feel like that title obscures the primary focus of the album. Namely, Nicholas Cage.
WillRock Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) I want to have a quick word with Damned, I'll update everyone shortly Edited February 26, 2014 by WillRock
Brandon Strader Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I want to have a quick word with Damned, I'll update everyone shortly It's about the Cagey name change, right?
timaeus222 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Will this be able to be released by the intended April 21? This is an album I'm really looking forward to! =D
stootab Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Are new submissions still being accepted for this? I'd really like to submit something from Pokemon TCG that I've been working on
Chernabogue Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Will this be able to be released by the intended April 21? This is an album I'm really looking forward to! =D Such troll xD
Brandon Strader Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Wow I forgot this existed Is this album going forward smoothly or do you need me to take it over, Will? LOL I kid I ain't got time for that
WillRock Posted April 11, 2014 Author Posted April 11, 2014 Ok guys heres the deal. Damned has basically quit the project, he's too busy. i'm also working on other projects right now, I'm willing to help out but not as a co-director duty. Anyone who is willing to take over this project, shoot me a PM. If not, I'll be forced to close this out
Liontamer ⚖️ Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Just putting some alternate ideas out there that involve less work. Someone could do an EP, maybe 6-7 tracks where some people just pick a GB song they like and arrange that, with no specific game or genre requirements. In the effort to keep it tight, you could also restrict the game choices to launch titles, of which Super Mario Land and Tetris were the main draws. There's definitely no album coming on April 21, but if someone wanted to run a short, compo-style quick creation of an EP in time for the North American release date (July 31), that could work. If someone else wants to pick this back up with a fresh approach, they should start a new thread.
Chernabogue Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Not wanting to direct/assist, but I can finish my mix soon if needed.

Anyone who is willing to take over this project, shoot me a PM. If not, I'll be forced to close this out WOW. I was joking dude. Sure gimme it I'll album it up, hahaha. I'll start by deciding on the new direction for the album, and go from there. For me, coordinating albums is like checking my email. It's.... part of life. Only snag I can see is if OCR Staff has a problem with 1 guy directing 8 albums at once (exaggeration I hope), but hopefully they can see past that and recognize a raw wellspring of dedication where it lay.
Mirby Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 dude brandon, leave some albums for other people haha
Brandon Strader Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I did, I was soopah excited to see Willrock and The Damned do this album together, and now they're not going to Who they choose to direct it is up to them but I'm open to it. I'm cool with being Will's go-to guy after Bionic Commando, I really love how that turned out.
ad.mixx Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 i'll message tgh, but since mine and his song is already done i'm gonna see if we can just push ours to another album idea (like LT mentioned) or if we'll just submit it as is. that is if this doesn't get taken over by someone else.
Argle Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I might be interested in co directing with someone. not confident enough to do it on my own. maybe with a person similarly lacking confidence, we can form one competent person.
djpretzel 🎮 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Still really like this idea, still wanna see it come to fruition, hope a suitable replacement director can be found!

You could submit the mix to the panel anyway, and say it's a project mix. If there doesn't end up being a project, just let a judge know and they can move it to the regular list.
