Generdyn Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hey Guys, I see a lot of kid games up for remixing and that's cool, but I reckon it would be awesome if we could remix a song from the Black Ops 2 game! Jimmy Hinson did some of the tracks featured in the game including Adrenaline and Spider Bot. Check it out! http://www.image-line.com/documents/news.php?entry_id=1354075279&title=fl-studio-black-ops-2 So what do you guys reckon? I personally would love to remix Spider Bot.

KyleJCrb Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 CoD and other shooters are generally eligible for remixing. Nobody ever seems to be very interested in doing them, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorax Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 CoD and other shooters are generally eligible for remixing. Nobody ever seems to be very interested in doing them, though. That's probably due to the fact that, unlike older games, the songs in CoD and other shooters are usually too complex to begin with... Besides, how easy would it be to remix BGC anyway?

Melbu Frahma Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Define "kids games" Pretty much my first thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generdyn Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 "Kids games" was probably the wrong word, by kids games I mean more juvenile games. I don't mean to offend anyone by the way, I just wish I could sink my teeth into something a little more Heavy and that has a bit of meat to it, you know what I mean?

PROTO·DOME Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Being honest, most eight to ten year olds seem to like CoD over Nintendo franchises and such. If anything, Black Ops is a kid's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generdyn Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 COD caters to a wider audience than most Nintendo games in this day of age. But, the music is the kind that you'd hear in an epic action movie. I like that style and that's the kind of genre I'd like to remix, I was actually just wondering if anyone else had done it before or if it was even allowed.

Flexstyle Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 the music is the kind that you'd hear in an epic action movie. I like that style and that's the kind of genre I'd like to remix, I was actually just wondering if anyone else had done it before or if it was even allowed. Oh, it's certainly allowed. The problem with a lot of the new, cinematic soundtrack stuff is that (a) it's really complex, ( it's already heavily arranged, and © there's no way to do it other than by ear, i.e. there usually aren't any easily-accessible MIDI files. A remix of a modern soundtrack song would probably focus in on one single part, and then expand on that a bit. Heck, I think I could do an entire album just from the first track of the Starcraft II OST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozovian Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 If you want stuff in the style of CoD based on CoD, why don't you just listen to CoD? If you wanna point ppl to a style, go ahead; if you wanna point ppl to a soundtrack, go ahead; if you wanna suggest a particular style for a particular track, go ahead. It's just that I don't think I'm alone in thinking that making a rock cover of a rock song isn't nearly as interesting as a bluegrass, jazz or trance take on it - and this applies to any and all genres and styles. It's hard to top the original, and remixing in the same style means ppl will inevitably compare the two that way, so you might as well find something else to remix in that style, or do something else with the source. imo, anyway. Remember that the requests board doesn't come with any guarantee of your request being picked up. If you wanna remix it - just do it.

The Damned Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 That, and the request tossed in a "kiddy" remark before halfway through the first sentence. That alone puts people off. I'm sensing just a tiny bit of snobby, modern gen console elitism there. Just a bit. Like, maybe 50 millifans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generdyn Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 Hey thanks guys for your replies! @The Damned Sorry, I meant no disrespect, I'm fairly new here and am still trying to get my head around how everything works.
