Swifthom Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Now a very busy New years is over with I'm back.. Glad you all like the cover - that's some impressive work. I loved Pokemonstein's concept piece a while ago (and that's doing it a disservice, it was fully serviceable and a really good design) but this new rendering looks absolutely stunning. And we got a logo to boot MC - Haven't had a chance to check your stuff out yet but your idea sounds good. Are you capable of creating full track though or just the lyrics? Skyrider - Will check out tomorrow. If you want another track PM me and we can talk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Final Sigma Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 MC - Haven't had a chance to check your stuff out yet but your idea sounds good. Are you capable of creating full track though or just the lyrics? I am only capable of writing and performing lyrics, so I'll need a partner for the rest of the production.

pokemoneinstein Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Oh, by the way, Tom, you might want to update the first post. A lot of that is out of date by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Williamson Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 WHOA no one's taken Dragon Roost Island? Heck yeah! I'm up for it! I need to keep control on how many album projects I'm a part of, though. xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 G-Mixer- i'd be delighted, people have asked but nobodies done any work on it as far as I know. Send me a good WIP and it's yours. Pokemonstein - yeah, will do when I can find time. I've a few surprises I haven't shared with anyone else yet, so when their in place i'll update the first post to explain everything MC Final Sigma - If you can find a collaborator I can take you. I can't see myself having time to build a track for you though... (MangaMan and I were working on lyrics for a ballad that we still haven't ironed out. I'll ask him if it'd be appropriate for that track, or if he has any ideas for another one...) SkyriderX _ your track is brilliant BRAN - THANK YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I've just finished assembling clips of all of the tracks I have WIPs for together into a massive trailer Some of these tracks are fantastic. Looking forward to sharing them with the public. I'd just like, again, to thank everyone who's contributed. If anyone thinks there's is done PM me and we can arrange sending a .wav file over. As for the few tracks left to be worked on - not a problem. I don't want to rush this, take your time to get it right. I do want to finish this year though At the end of Jan I'll email OCR back with 'everything' we have and ask once again about official album release on OCR - to be honest if you took my tracks out this may pass muster Anyone think they still want a track and want a challenge for a quick turnaround, get in touch NOW (EDIT: Any singers out there willing to record a few lines PM me. We've a big project underway) Edited January 13, 2013 by Swifthom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swifthom Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'm so excited Okay, hopefully I'll have more news soon, but I see this as a brilliant opportunity (IF we get our asses in gear). We currently have almost a dozen remixes at various stages of completion. Out of those I'd say only 2 or 3 require more work, the others just require a little fine tuning. So I'm setting the final deadline for track as May. I've already spoken to at least 6 people, I'll contact a few more over the following weeks to check your good with that. I've also submitted what we have to OCR to see if they're likely to bite or not. Turnaround time isn't guaranteed, neither is the fact we'll become an official OCR album, but I'd love to attempt to co-ordinate this release around the same time as the HD Wind Waker release. So, to repeat, final WIP deadline: '1st MAY' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokemoneinstein Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 We should try to see if one of the workshop mods would be willing to work with us to bring the tracks up to snuff so we can become an official OCR album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swifthom Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 If ANYONE wants DRAGON ROOST ISLAND I'd snap them up in an instant. That applies from now right up until the day we release this. Seriously, the album won't feel 'complete' without it. But that's fine; I wouldn't be doing this if I hadn't heard this song, it's perfect in every way: http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02100/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also written thematically (as in with a story behind it) if that appeals to you further. If g-mixer would rather take it that's fine by me Though.

I think I will, because I just got done with one project, and I'm taking a break from another since the next deadline isn't in a while, and I have the Sonic CD project 50% deadline nearly done, so I believe I'll have time, now that I think about it. Give me a couple more days, and I think I may be able to claim it. So deadline is May 1st? Should we have other minor deadlines in place for like 50% done and nearly done or whatever? Just throwin' that idea out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swifthom Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Gah, I checked this earlier, decided to think carefully before replying, and now there's 5-6 more responses. So, one at a time: Deadline - I've set May the 1st as I do have 10 remixes that have gone through 2 WIPs already. I actually emailed the projects team at OCR and asked them to have a look at this on wednesday, so the tracks I already have are being evaluated on some level. If you think you'll struggle with May 1st deadline to be 100% finished, but you CAN get the track done over summer, good, your still welcome. For latecomers however I think it'll be get me a WIP ASAP to claim the track and then get me a pretty much done song by May (even if you still want time to tidy it further up after that) I was quite happy for this to be a single CD size album, we're not covering every track just a selection that represent the story's progression. I think there's a space for small, personal albums amongst the enormous behemoths OCR seems to produce with regularity. That said I'm always happy to get more tracks I just don't want to postpone this much longer. G-Mixer + RexAsaurus - I'll PM you both over the weekend. I would love to have you both aboard. (Rexasaurus - I was mentally preparing lovely things I was going to say about your track ) Bottom line is - if you think you can turn something around before summer, I'll have you. DJ Mokram - Argle's joined us with a new version of 'The Legendary Hero' which scratches a similar itch, but no-one's stepped up to replace that track. I actually really loved the WIP you had done. Don't suppose you still have the files? Edited January 25, 2013 by Swifthom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chernabogue Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'll do a mix for this project in the near future, once I'm done with other tracks. Still have to chose a track or two from a so-good soundtrack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverSound Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Okay, took the time to read through the whole thread to get a better idea of the situation. The trailer Swifthom talked about a while back caught attention. Was it scratched or is it up somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'm putting finishing touches to it now. Doesn't cover every song, just some of the one's nearest completion. Musically it's there, i'm currently making a video and I should get it out by end of month - that was the plan To be honest I've been a little startled by the sudden dramatic upturn in interest in the last 3 days. Still, it's nothing but good news in the long run. Chernabogue - Would love to have you aboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverSound Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Thanks for the response. Still gotta ask about the intro/ending themes, so many talked about them in the early pages of this thread. Are they still unclaimed like the OP would suggest, and are they intended to be 2 separate mixes to open and/or close the album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 We have a track to close the album - the much talked about but little progress made collaboration is just ready to start taking shape. It's been a while since the people who said they were up for it said so, but I'll start asking around in a week or so. It'll either be the best thing ever or crash and burn horrifically A few people asked for title theme but I'm yet to see a WIP or hear anything for any length of time. If anyone actually wants to tackle it i'd be more than happy. Also waiting for WIPs for Outset and Dragon Roost - but in both cases I am assured work is still underway..

Chernabogue Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Okay, I'd like to claim "Jalhalla" (+ "Jalhalla Appears ") if that's possible. I'll try to get a WiP soon, but no promises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
