[Garrett Williamson]

Replied to your PM, HoboKa.

Replied to your PM, HoboKa.

yep got it.

[HoboKa]

I want to do more rapping, so I plan to...I guess that was half of the reason I wanted to start the project.

I'll try my hand at it, and if they don't work we just won't use them

Oh alright, then you can disregard the last question on my PM

Yeah, we can work something out - we should use skype and do a call about the ideas - it's easier to plan out projects that way for me

EDIT - skype all 3 of us =p - heck maybe even get the whole team onboard so we can all help out with the compositions (not all at once obv)

[Bahamut]

Has work on this started?

You should ask zyko & Jose the Bronx Rican to join in too.

Sounds like a beautiful idea! When do you want to start?

Yes, I think people have started to put down ideas and are making WIPs. I'm not sure if there are any qualifications to make it an official OC album, or just a project for fun. But my idea was just to get some more hip-hop int the site

As far as zyko, I haven't been in contact with. Would a pm suffice? As far as Jose, I messaged him, but he said he was busy at the time. Do you think a follow up would be an annoyance?

I have a feeling I broke a lot of rules in this remix... I did a lot of sampling (was going for a more old school sound; that's the type of Hip-Hop I'm into anyway), but I guess I kept the sampling of the Carnival Night Zone original track to a pretty small amount. I'm not sure how obvious it is that this is a Carnival Night Zone remix. There will be quite a bit of rap and I'll probably mess with the beats coming in and out a bit more when I get all the vocals in there. I'll probably have some vocals in there, but sort of silly and ugly sounding, yet in that cool type of tone... you know what I mean?

So yeah. Remix so far. Not highest quality. I just exported it at 192kbps which stinks compared to the high quality 24-bit sound quality I'm working with in Logic, but oh well. It still is high enough quality to get the point across.

[BrothaDom]

I really like it! Does it count for OC Remix standards, though? If not, I'd enjoy it for something else if we can't use it for this

[Garrett Williamson]

I'm not totally sure. Can you check? I'm rather busy right now and only had the time to quickly type this lol (sounds like a dumb excuse but it's true).

[BrothaDom]

I looked for it a bit and I'm still not 100% sure

[Garrett Williamson]

Hmmm. Meh.

[BrothaDom]

Well, it doesn't bother me. I like it a lot.

[Garrett Williamson]

Ok.

I haven't done rapping or anything on it yet. I've been busy with other things. Like with remixes (I'm also currently working on a remix for a Paper Mario album), my own original music, YouTube, and my actual life. xD

[BrothaDom]

Fair enough. I've been trying to write something for it...I'll let you know when something more solid comes up.

But yeah, life has been keeping me busy as well

[KingTiger]

Same here. I probably won't be able to get started on my track until another week from now at the earliest.

Also, I hate to ask this, but can you take me off the roster for Quartz Quadrant *for now*? I might be able to pick it back up but atm I've got enough on my plate with my mixes for the Paper Mario 64 project, a special request I'm working on, and my own hip hop project.

[BrothaDom]

Yeah, man no problem. If things get better, we can always change it around.

[Garrett Williamson]

@BrothaDom: Hey whenever you finally yell out there that the tracks need to be finished soon or my track is a priority to be finished, I'll get on it.

But for now, like King Tiger, I'm working on a remix for the PM64 project, and that mix has been keeping me busy. The Carnival Night Zone remix I'm coming back to occasionally and tweaking, but it has not been a priority for me right now.

Just thought I'd let you know that.

Ditto...albeit my WIP is far from done - haven't worked on my Metropolis track since I showed G-Mixer and Brothadom lol

[BrothaDom]

Hey everyone, just checking in to see who's all still in for the idea...

We can take what we have going forward and go with it. Better to have a small project than an unfinished long one

[Garrett Williamson]

I'm still up to do this, but I've got many other things (including and not including ocremix) that I'm working on right now, so yeah.

omfg totally forgot...you sorta went AWOL on us Brothadom lol - that and I've been wasting time at other projects with half finished works lmao. Some day it'll all get done

[Salluz]

Dude, no shitting, I know Hunnid-P, the dude that does the Knuckles raps on SA2(. I am going to try to see about a fucking remix on Meteor Herd. I'm settled in my new apartment now, but I have to see about fixing my PC.

Yeah, I'm so sorry about that. School really caught up with me in a bad way and I've been really weak on here. That's no excuse though.

How does everyone want to proceed?

Also, that Meteor Herd remix sounds cool, let me know when you hear about that, please.

First off, me and G-Mixer need 2 come up with some actual rap lyrics for our collab, idk how you will get the other ppl to chip in - especially now that there's a sonic CD project starting up haha.

[metaphist]

I actually have an old Midnight Greenhouse WIP that I could maybe finish up for this? I'll try to send you a sample, BrothaDom.

I'm down to rap on something as well, but I'll have to look again through the track list so don't quote me on that just yet...

[Garrett Williamson]

Yeah that's right I'm doing my own thing and something with HoboKa. I also have that Paper Mario and Sonic CD in my hands right now so I just need to do that and get that out of the way and then I'll focus on this (hopefully... I'm a very distracted person who just wants to do everything lol).
