Dave the Rave Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Hi there, gang! Been awhile hasn’t it. Since we are now half way through August. I’d thought it would be fun to make this thread until September arrives. For those of you that don’t know, last year Overclocked ReMix has started a new tradition. Every September, it is Mixflood month. Where each week, we get 5 ReMixes all month long. It could be ReMixes from one of the OC albums. It could be ReMixes for a console. It could be ReMixes of a themed level. It could be ReMixes by any of the ReMixers. It’s just one big guessing game. This is why I’ve created this thread, so we can all wish for what Mixfloods we like to see. The possibilities are just endless! I shall go first. Obscure Wii gamesGames developed by Platinum GamesGames composed by Nobuo Uematsu (besides Final Fantasy)Obscure X-Box gamesGames for the Atari ST (seriously, you guys STILL don’t have any for that system)Handheld systemsSnow/Ice levelsGames for the eighth generation systems RPGs from the last generation of systemsObscure Genesis/Mega Drive gamesGames developed by Treasure Kirby games (in honour of Satoru Iwata) NiGHTS: Journey of dreams Indie games Games for the SEGA Saturn (besides NiGHTS into dreams) That’s it for now. If I think of more, I’ll let you know. So tell me gang! What Mixfloods do you wish to happen this September? Share your wishes everyone!

Eino Keskitalo Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Reading the previous year's post, the bad mixtitle pun flood basically has to happen. My ideas: Mixes with titles in Finnish (at least partially) Mixes with guitars by Tuberz McGee Mixes that are recent resubmissions of Portal 2 tunes Mixes of collabs where the other mixer is Dutch Sorry, I have no serious ideas, but generally the bit more obscure stuff, or just funny connections between pieces would make me smile.

Dave the Rave Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 Well everyone, September was over yesterday. So what did you think of this year’s mixfloods? Did any of your wishes came true or we’re you disappointed? Me personally? While I’m a bit disappointed on not getting mixfloods on the Kirby series, (biggest missed opportunity to pay respect for Satoru Iwata) I was rather surprised with the New & Obscure games flood. So once again, one of my wishes was somewhat granted. Until next year, my friends... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I liked the mixfloods. I'm biased. There wasn't enough Kirby material in the submission's box to do a 5-mix flood, but at the least, we posted a Kirby arrangement by Jorito shortly after Iwata-san's passing. I generally pick the floods to fit what's already approved and available, but if we had enough in the hopper, I'd enjoy a modern game flood (basically Xbox 360/PS3 and newer). The most important thing is keeping the categories reasonably broad, e.g. high-level genre, obscure games (NOT just from 1 platform), a generation, indie games, a popular company. Keep in mind, a lot of the theme suggestions in the thread are just way too restrictive. We generally do 5-mix groups, though you saw we had a couple of 2-mix pairs also. Always a fun, albeit challenging month. timaeus222, Eino Keskitalo, Jorito and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
