wildfire Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I still don't have anything written that I really love, but I think I know what direction I want to take the song in now. Hopefully writing Latin House genre music isn't too different from writing regular house music. </spoilers> Quote

That is totally Endless Mine! That is awesome. I'm going to hear those lyrics every time I hear that theme now. Kind of like when I hear the MM2 Wily music I always hear "makin' the bacon" now. I've caught myself singing that more than once. Thanks Brandon Quote
Troyificus Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 While I love the Metropolis theme I'm hating having to work with it. I specifically chose a source for myself that I had no experience with whatsoever to prevent over-familiarity becoming a burden and that's exactly what's happening at the moment *le sigh* Quote
Cash Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 My remix currently has about 30 seconds of a Marble Madness source in the intro, is that too much? What are the rules about incorporating non-competition sources? Quote

What are the rules about incorporating non-competition sources? That's fine, so long as your song doesn't primarily become a remix of a non-competition source. Keep the majority of your remix the two Zone themes! Quote
jnWake Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 So I'm progressing now, I just accelerated the rhytm a bit and my song idea turned out nicely! Hope Brandon is progressing too Quote
Brandon Strader Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 no x.x i kinda... don't... feel like musicing Quote
Cash Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 no x.x i kinda... don't... feel like musicing Come on man, you can do it! You got Butt Hill, channel some of those butt powers! Quote
Brandon Strader Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I do appreciate that a lot, I'm just in a funk, and it's really cold I might hold off until Friday night into Saturday and try to finish recording it before Sunday. Quote
Ryan Jobson Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Is anyone close to completion just out of curiosity? I'm just wrapping things up with my mix right now, should be all done in about an hour. I'm really pleased with how mine turned out, and it's even better I finished early because I will basically have no time to work on the mix from Thurs - Sunday. I'm very excited to hear everyone's mixes! And come on Brandon! We need you! What would Nicolas Cage do? Quote
Brandon Strader Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 And come on Brandon! We need you! What would Nicolas Cage do? This is a dangerous question to ask Quote
Mirby Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 And that's how Brandon went to federal prison for trying to steal the Declaration of Independence. He had no chance to grab it and be gone in 60 seconds, and the feds were on him like a swarm of bees. Quote
Ethan Rex Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 This is a dangerous question to ask Just fit one of in there somewhere Quote

Don't forget the time he dressed up as a bear and punched out that woman while singing Rocket Man! Quote
Eino Keskitalo Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Come on Brandon, you can do it! Butt Hill and Bridge Zone go really well together. Let's meet in the finals. --Eino Quote
Ivan Hakštok Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 My song went in a completely different direction than I intended. I hope people will like it. Quote
wildfire Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I have about 1 minute of material now, and things seem to be coming together a bit better. I still need to write lyrics (or even just come up with a topic!) but I know what melody I'll be using. I think tonight will be spent filling out the rest of the song and writing basic melodic parts. I'm aiming for about 3.5-4 minutes, so it'll be a pretty short mix by my standards. Quote
SuperiorX Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 My arrangement is basically done, it just needs a lot of polish now. I'll finish it up on Saturday. I think we've heard from most people... Arrow, Xenonetix, Disambiguity, how are you guys doing? Quote
Rexy Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 What about Max-E? I haven't seen him post in here either... unless you've gotten statuses outside of OCR's forum? Quote

Arrow, Xenonetix, Disambiguity, how are you guys doing? Disambiguity's one of my close friends from college. He said he's doing ok and is on track to be done by Friday night (I think) because he's busy all Saturday. Quote
SuperiorX Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 What about Max-E? I haven't seen him post in here either... unless you've gotten statuses outside of OCR's forum? Yeah I've been chatting with him on FB. He was really excited earlier in the week. I need to check on how he's doing tho Disambiguity's one of my close friends from college. He said he's doing ok and is on track to be done by Friday night (I think) because he's busy all Saturday. Cool! Quote
