shadow24 Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Looks like I'm going this week. I'm thinking Gregorian Chant Breakbeat. http://www.musicgenreslist.com/ Hope that helps. Oh, and here's my lyrics from GLL's remix last week: Darkesword compo With a deadline coming very soon Mixing n' fixing Shoveling caffeine in with a spoon Not much time left Gotta rush this and get it done 'bout to master Oh no I forgot a whole section I'm halfway done I don't want to let the team down And I've only used one theme Just hours left Barely awake Not much time left Gotta rush this and get it done 'bout to master Oh no I forgot a whole section I have a feeling these will become highly relevant for some of us in a couple of days. I think everyone goes through that Quote
Chernabogue Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Damn, so much good music. I wish I had the time and connexion to participate. Hope I can join the next big compo. And I hope it's not Mega Man again, because I'm so not familiar with the music lol Quote
Sir_NutS Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 I somewhat fixed my song and now, although it's not good, it's not a joke anymore. Usa is helping me save it so there should be something at least listenable by tomorrow. I'm done with the arrangement and I just need to add proper transitions and finishing touches/mix/master tomorrow. timaeus222, Eino Keskitalo and Anorax 3 Quote
SuperiorX Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 I somewhat fixed my song and now, although it's not good, it's not a joke anymore. Usa is helping me save it so there should be something at least listenable by tomorrow. I'm done with the arrangement and I just need to add proper transitions and finishing touches/mix/master tomorrow. I'm actually quite pleased with my track. I just need to spend today fleshing out the arrangement, working on transitions, fixing up a few troublesome sections, and then doing a bunch of finishing production touches. The style is quite the departure from the two sources, so I'll be interested to hear what people think. I'm glad you got your stuff sorted out Mike! Quote
timaeus222 Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Haven't written a geetar solo in a long time, but I'm so pumped up for you guys to hear this one! Quote
Ghetto Lee Lewis Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Oh my. Still way better than actual Lady Gaga. Quote
Yami Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Well, I'm pretty proud of what I've done until now. The arrangement still needs some work (it's still a bit short) but I think productionwise I learned a lot last week and used it. Quote
Flexstyle Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 This week's track is likely going to be one I submit to the site. Super happy with where it's at right now. Just gonna let Jordan master it and then I'll be shooting it over to Shariq. Quote
Ivan Hakštok Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 I'm a little late with the votes, I hope it's alright (sry ) Quote
The Hiryuu Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Shit, I thought I had more time to vote. I just got back from vacation, and for some reason I thought the deadline to vote for the last round was the same as the deadline to submit tracks for the current round. Quote
Flexstyle Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Guys, I can't believe how happy I am with this week's track. Seriously, I can't remember the last time I was this hyped to share something with OCR. Jason Covenant 1 Quote

Seriously, I can't remember the last time I was this hyped to share something with OCR. Man I really hope your track is as good as you say it is. I'm really excited to hear the entries for this round Quote
jnWake Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 I got some sudden inspiration that is making me change some things in my track... I think it's sounding cool though. Got some inspiration from Marillion's and for this week, so expect some 6/8 shenanigans haha. Jason Covenant 1 Quote
SuperiorX Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Guys, I can't believe how happy I am with this week's track. Seriously, I can't remember the last time I was this hyped to share something with OCR. Me too! My track turned out even better than I thought. I'm not going to hype myself up that much though, everything in this compo has been amazing, haha. I can't wait to hear what everyone came up with this round! Jason Covenant 1 Quote
timaeus222 Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 I took all the time I could get this week. This track is one of the most challenging ones I've had to finish in such a short time! Jason Covenant 1 Quote
YoshiBlade Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Ok, Submitted. Quick wrap up of this week's round... Step 1) I have no idea what to write Step 2) I hate what I've written Step 3) Ok I fixed it, sounds good Step 4) Best. Track. Ever. Quote
timaeus222 Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 For me: 1. Wrote the hook 2. Wrote the intro in the wrong key with a mismatched transition 3. Fixed the key 4. Fixed the transition 5. Wrote what came after, got to the solo part 6. Reworked the solo for like 5 hours 7. Wrote the rest 8. Face = Garpocalypse 1 Quote
Garpocalypse Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 For me: 1. Wrote the hook 2. Wrote the intro in the wrong key with a mismatched transition 3. Left it that way 4. Tried to improvise over it 5. Improvised some more but changed the progression to extended 13th chords so it all fit 6. People didn't like it so i told them it was better/smarter music than what they were used to 7. Profit 8. Face = ...actually sounds sort of prog. Tuberz McGee and timaeus222 2 Quote
WillRock Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 ...actually sounds sort of prog. Sounds less prog now he edited his post (timeaus stop editing all your posts! ) Garpocalypse and timaeus222 2 Quote
jnWake Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Mine went from me wanting to try to use chiptunes to almost completely ditching them in favour of prog rock influences. It's sounding pretty strange right now haha. Quote
SuperiorX Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 OK, just subadubdubbed mine. My process this week was: Do What I Do Nailed it I can't wait to hear all the mixes!!!!! Pavos and Tuberz McGee 2 Quote
Yami Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Ok, submitted.My process was: Ah, this theme sucks Well, I have a reasonable idea It might turn out pretty well Fuck that, this sucks, let's start over. This is gonna be awesome Well, at least it's less suckier than before Quote
