Bahamut Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hello everyone!

Bahamut Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 I officially rebooted the Secret of Mana project as an official OCR project, and now I am in search of dedicated musicians for the album! See the tracklist here. I am also on the hunt for an energetic co-director who can critique tracks, keep a close eye on each person's progress, and help put their stamp on keeping the quality bar high. Edit: Co-director found, artists still welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emunator Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I want in on this. Not sure which track, but I've got my eyes on Spirit of the Night or I Closed My Eyes. I've got a few free days to throw something together, so I'll see what comes to me for either of those tracks over the weekend.

audio fidelity Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I could still be up for doing Little Sprite but I'd need some talent to pull it off. Want a live violinist who can shred. If @some1namedjeff is interested to play and riff off an arrangement, I'll put it together and claim it. Could also opt for @DrumUltimA to do some mallet/percussion and maybe @bustatunez for some basic flute/etc but need some fleshing to do around the violin first. Gotta keep that fast spirit alive so it'll need some real talent like those guys. Bahamut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eino Keskitalo Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 If only I could make arrangements just by claiming tracks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannthr Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Are there style/genre requirements? I am definitely interested in some of these unclaimed tracks. Quality Assurance: Dan's Sound Cloud Page I don't have anything on OCRemix 'cause in my remixin' days I was a VGMixer? and a VGMIDIer before that.

jnWake Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Glad to see this revived. I've always thought "Danger" could be remixed in the style of prog. metal band Andromeda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOlPFPW5Tuo. Not sure if I should try claiming it though...

Bahamut Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 dannthr - what track would you like to do? Jay - I'll mark you down, I'm sure finding the live instrumentation you want will be possible. I know Doug mentioned to me he'd be willing to collab when I talked to him last week, and there are a couple of violinists around the community. I'll help contact people you need if you want.

Pavos Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I see my claim from the previous iteration didn't transfer to this one... I'll look at the tracklist to see which one I'll pick then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if Jeff responds. He's what came to mind for the part but I do feel like I need another lead for color. Not certain what and the obvious for a flute is not something I'm sure of but I would have someone in mind for that. If someone out there had a desire and wanted to riff on the melody with some variations that could serve as a spring board. A live upbeat realistic performance riffing on the sections with variations is my general idea. Fleshing out the instrumentation and giving it new life.

I could do "I Closed My Eyes." Are we allowed to take liberties with additional source material? Brandon Strader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannthr Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Weaving in some of the more principle themes to give it more substance as the last cue on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hipnotyk Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I'd be more than happy to help finish this project. I'm not a posted mixer but I have contributed work to the Materia Collective's FF8 album: If you'd like to have me on the project, two tracks that interest me are Secret of the Arid Sands and A Curious Happening.

Yo dude I would be super down to collab on a prog metal version of Danger! Not sure if you're trying to do that. Danger is the first track that comes to my mind when it comes to stuff from SoM that I would want to do . I believe you already heard my stuff because you hooked me up with some feedback on my thrash metal FF6 remix in the workshop section (which I still have to respond to...haven't had a ton of time in the past week!) With that said, if anyone wants a collaborator I'd love to work with someone on a remix! I can lay down guitar tracks/solos and help with arranging, but mixing/production is not my strong suit. I'd loooove to claim Flight of the Unknown if that's cool. I don't have any posted remixes, but I'm doing stuff for the FF3, FF8 albums and others as well(I probably wouldn't be able to get a solid WIP together until I make more progress on those in the next month or two though). I'd also definitely be open to collaborating on it with people. Have a few ideas for an arrangement. You can check out the stuff I did for DoD or just click the Soundcloud link in my sig to hear my other remixes. I'm pretty new to the scene so the mixing in my 2015 entries isn't so great, but I think my most recent FF6 DoD entry sounds pretty good. If I can't claim any tracks then I'd love to collab on someone else's. jnWake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
