CyberSkull Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 A new tool called 6 DEGREES OF MUSIC WITH VINCE GILL let's you look up how many degrees separate musical artists, based on MusicBrainz data. OverClocked ReMix has 4 degrees of separation from Vince Gill. djpretzel and timaeus222 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirby Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 That awkward moment when you're 4 degrees from Vince Gill despite only releasing like 4 songs total ever. Sagnewshreds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone's who's done a Final Fantasy cover is going to have a connection. ;p Chernabogue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I also noticed a small-ish error when I tried to see my connection with Spanish composer Oscar Araujo, as it shows the Super Castlevania IV composers have arranged RoeTaKa's SCIV/LoS remix.

Looking into it, I see that some of the works are arrangements of earlier works, so they have arrangement credits on the later versions of the songs. So you end up with Vampire Killer (ステージ10ドラキュラの塔1BGM) being an arrangement of Vampire Killer (城内潜入BGM) and having two arrangers as a result. I think that's what you are talking about… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyberSkull Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) The connection from OCR to Drew Wheeler (@halc) to Արամ Խաչատրյան to Vince doesn't work either, as the symphony that links them would have been made when Drew was 4 or 5.

Chernabogue Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Anyway, it's a very interesting tool. It's quite cool to see what kind of links we share with composers and other artists ^^ (3 links to Helloween, yay! x)) CyberSkull 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyberSkull Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 So I put it to you guys: What is your degree of separation from Vince? From your favorite artist? Who here has the largest separation from Vince? The shortest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSkull Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 OCR's degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon is: Well, I'm not telling! :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gario Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Three steps, woo. Anyone who's posted a Final Fantasy remix will get a minimum of three steps, as Nobuo Uematsu is two steps away CyberSkull 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutritious Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Had three steps as well, but after a few tries I managed to get one through Bionic Commando instead of FF. Interesting. CyberSkull 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Yep, I too hit 3 steps because of the Final Fantasy connection. XD I'm actually interested in looking for any artists that didn't cover any of Uematsu's scores and seeing any other major links that amateur arrangers could have.

Try disabling all the relationship types except for "primary" and "support". You'll find a longer, more interesting chain if you do.
