Troyificus Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 First of all; thanks MW for the feedback! I eat that stuff up like you wouldn't believe. Also thanks to everyone who voted for me! I got exactly 7 more votes than I was expecting to. Secondly; I'll say right now that I won't be participating in the Dracula bracket due to other commitments. Best of luck to everyone else in the competition! Jorito and WarMachine 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Awww, too bad you can't participate I started working on my track yesterday (gosh, I love these 2 week long mixing periods, the luxury of time!). It's mostly disconnected ideas right now and since I didn't feel like varying between 3/4 and 4/4 I just decided to do a full 3/4 song again. Should be fun... I hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindWanderer Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Less than 24 hours left this week! I have only one out of 3 Soma Round 2 entries in. Also, voting for Alucard Round 2 is neck-and-neck, so get those votes in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfire Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'll be fixing mine up tonight and will send you the link. Magfest took a lot of my mixing time this week, but I'll submit something at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercoolmike Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 just sent mine in. I never done a mix where I have to put together 3 songs, so this was a bit of a challenge for me. Magnetic Ether 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfire Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yea, full round! Great job everyone! Jorito and OceansAndrew 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 back from mag and thinking about my entry. I'll do what I can to mix sources together this time, there are a few spots where it'll be really easy, and a few that it'll be trickier. Really curious to hear what my opponents have cooked up, idea-wise Jorito 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindWanderer Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Soma Round 2 is up! I'll get the voting thread up in a bit. Speaking of voting, the Alucard Round 2 vote has ended in a dead-even tie! However, Gario didn't vote, and Aleix did. Before making any decisions about how to proceed, I want to check in with both of them; if Gario was following my initial instructions that participants not vote (which I changed based on the new forum poll system), then this was a miscommunication and he should probably proceed. Otherwise, we can either have both of them advance and add a round to the compo, or they can do a tiebreaker speed round this week if they're up for it.

Aleix Ramon Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I will let Gario win. It's the best solution and I think it wouldn't be fair if I won because I voted myself and he didn't do the same. Congratulations to Gario, it was a nice submission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks, your submission was the closest I've ever been in a compo, so high props for that. I've had issues before on voting for myself, so not being sure about who did what I was playing it safe (and hoping for literally any other voting outcome than a tie, where that would be relevant, lol). For the future, everyone should vote for themselves, in order to avoid this little snag. Great round! Aleix Ramon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindWanderer Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 It's funny that Wildfire isn't familiar with Castlevania in general, since I'm hearing a strong Out of Time influence in her mix this week, more prominently than I hear Riddle.

MindWanderer Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Just now, wildfire said: Wow! I've never heard this before, but I must have been subconsciously channeling it! Actually, I just noticed that the arps in Out of Time and Inner Quarters are really similar, so that's why. And they both open with that arp exposed. Tough choice this week. I think Wildfire's mix stands better alone, but Ether's makes better use of Riddle especially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfire Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I thought In Yer Castle was a better arrangement of the 3 sources (especially Inner Halls, I had a hell of a time integrating that one), but I voted for myself because Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I totally hate when people say how close their votes are (especially when i disagree with them ), but I understand their perspective on that. This vote was super close for me, and it took 4 listens each before I was confident in what I was preferring. The production was pretty close for all of them to me, and the arrangements were all good, I voted for the one that had the most energy.

Especially the way you treated the piano part from Inner Quarters -- I have not been able to integrate it that cleanly into my mixes! wildfire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 My entry is going to come down to the wire here! I have about 3.5 minutes down but will really need to haul ass to get my whole vision recorded. I hope my opponents have something good!

Sir_NutS Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I have to say I don't know if I'll be able to have the time to finish a remix for this week, I've got a lot on my plate which I can't really talk about for now but it's more than one thing and all of them are big and time consuming. I will try to at least turn up a wip like last time. BTW if anyone wants to hear the completed version of my WIP, you can fin it here, i totally forgot to post it. I didn't include the castlevania 2 source in the end though so its all vampire killer like the WIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Likewise here... Due to work taking a lot of effort these past few weeks, I didn't have a lot of time and energy to work on my track. I'll submit something, but it might be a bit raw. Also hope I can work out this challenge I have...

theshaggyfreak Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I should have something but my time has been limited due to a trip to see my parents and a project that I need to start/finish today. I'm currently digitizing a stack of 78 vinyl records from WW2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Yay, entry submitted! And I'm even pretty satisfied with it, even though I couldn't tune the midi orchestra as much as I'd have wished because of deadlines Looking forward to hearing the other entries!
