Mega Man X: The Sigma Fortress Remix Gauntlet 2015

[Cash]

Yeah, no one voted for their team. I think you're mistaken, timaeus.

[timaeus222]

Oh, my bad; I forgot that the first bullet point was your team name and username.

[DarkeSword]

Now that the first round is complete and voting is underway, I'd like to remind everyone to review and adhere to the Competitions Code of Conduct. Keep the CCC in mind when you're discussing, reviewing, and voting on this week's remixes.

 

To answer a question that was posted earlier, yes, Google Drive is fine for providing me with your mix.

 

I apologize for not posting what to put for the gauntlet theme this week. I'll do that earlier this week.

 

I also want to thank everyone for adhering to submission and voting standards thusfar. There have been no bad file names, no 48kHz 24 bit WAV files, everyone is using the right format in the voting threads, etc. So far so good; let's keep things rolling smoothly for the rest of the competition!

Is it possible to see the lyrics for Evktalo's and Jason's song?

 

Just uploaded the Maverick Astley song to Soundcloud, you can find Eino's lyrics there too: https://soundcloud.com/jorito/megaman-x-rolling-eino-keskitalo-feat-jorito-tuberz-mcgee.

Quick note, as per request from Larry: if you are planning on submitting any remix from this competition to OC ReMix, please include a source breakdown in your submission email.

Thanks a lot Jorito! Much appreciated.

It's too late for the first round maybe, but how about a listening party for the second round?

[jnWake]

First round songs are great. Super clean production in most of them and I'm surprised people even had the time to record vocals!

 

If I have time I'll post more detailed impressions later but first listens were great.

[orlouge82]

Man, voting was insanely difficult.  But a small price to pay for so much quality music!

[SuperiorX]

Awesome Round 1 tracks everyone!! It was really hard to pick a Top 3!

[Jason Covenant]

Is it possible to see the lyrics for Evktalo's and Jason's song?

 

Sure.

 

Verse:

 

The night passes into memory

I drift from my bed

Animated by my longing

For my beerloved

How I waited so long for you

Now I need you near

I'll press you to my lips and drink

You're my favorite beer

 

Chorus:

 

Female:

 

Beerly,

Beerloved,

My beerly

Beerloved

 

Male:

 

My one true brew

I'll be with you

I'll drink anew

And I'll find you.

 

I wrote more, but didn't get a chance to record. Oh well.

[DarkeSword]

Remember guys, voting closes TOMORROW, SATURDAY at 6PM EDT!

[Yami]

Whoa, damn... Voting was hard. So much quality music

I've been pretty sick this week so I haven't worked much on my song. I hope I feel better today ;_;

Yo man, if you need assistance just PM me

[Jason Covenant]

It didn't happen last week, but I've been sick a few times trying to do a track for a compo too. Whatever free time you had to spend on your track gets diverted into extra sleep and whatever else you need to do to get well. It really sucks. Hope you get better soon!

[The Hiryuu]

Yo man, if you need assistance just PM me

Yeah, there's a reason this thing's done in teams. 

[jnWake]

Well I do have the main arrangement idea tied up at least haha so there's hope!

[Garpocalypse]

It's been a cluster of a week but my track is nearly finished.  Just going to do some mastering to it when i get home and send it in before something else happens.   

 

Willrock, hope you're going this week. 

[timaeus222]

My track's pretty much done now, and I'm leaving room for anticipated last-minute updates Somewhat minimalist, and not ZOMG6MINUTESLONG, but I'm liking it. I will say though that the source usage could be seen as rather liberal due to the drastic stylistic shift and the majority being in a different key, so I'll provide a source breakdown sometime before the due time.

 

EDIT: Oops. Gotta make a few notes more conservative. =P

EDIT2: there!

[GrapplingHook]

Barely any time blah blah unfinished by a wide margin blah blah uploading anyway because something's better than nothing.

[Gario]

Barely any time blah blah unfinished by a wide margin blah blah uploading anyway because something's better than nothing.

Why don't you just use the next day completing a more reasonable remix to the compo? The due date isn't for another 22 hours.

[Garpocalypse]

Were there any plans, official or otherwise, for a listening party tomorrow?  If it's towards the evening I should be able to make it. 

[shadow24]

I quite enjoy the creative reimagining of titles. I'd love to hear some from others in this thread (not the voting one)

Hungover Heifer.
Meleoron Mansion (Hunter X Hunter).
Cocaine. (Subtle Ivan. Very subtle)
