Apparently, Shipluss is a 13-year-old girl? And she played the piano better than when I was 13?! :shock: I'm very impressed!

Just thought I'd get that out there. Nice turnout this month!

Yah, I felt bad for how critical of it I was during the listening party, but honesty can be the best feedback. :lol: Though with recording a live real piano, all you can really do is improve your microphones and mic placement.. so it's purely financial. Luckily, I don't usually write actual reviews on DoD so there's no proof I said anything overly critical. :-D

As for this month you all better be remixing the STAR OCEAN

Confess you wanted to replace SnappleMan, Brandon! :lol:

But yeah, it was a nice month with some nice surprises. I really loved Brandon's MGS remix and the SATANIC POKEMON REMIX OMG
