Deathtank Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 And the one you came back to listen to more often? Of course, I love them all and there's always albums you like more than others, but is there an album above them all? For me personally, that album that I love the most is: Project Chaos, the S&k remix album. I came back to listen to it today after a looong time and I gotta say, it still rocks my sox like the first day! I love every remixer who has contributed iwth a remix but my favorite of them all is Gamebox, I wonder what is he doing nowadays? I know he changed his nickname but I couldn't follow him like I'd have wanted, I hope he's ok. Post your own favorite album if you feel like it.

Deathtank Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Well, I answer myself, Gamebox (aka Steve Olofsson) is well I see, he's still active in his Soundcloud page and has posted new music just 19 days ago! cool!

DarkeSword Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Yeah, definitely Super Cartography Bros. for me. Everyone just knocked it out of the part on that one. And sure, I like the ones I directed just fine, it's just that SCB just really realized that idea of blowing out those map themes into club bangers. Club Ocarina is also a really good one, from mostly the same team. Deathtank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Missingno Tracks. But I might be a bit biased on that one. Deathtank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteo Xavier Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 The Seiken Densetsu 3 project - because I was on that project for 12 years and shit blood for it more than once in my sanity-defying, reality-molesting quest to finish that god-literally-forsaken project for you testicle-explodingly-pedantic listeners to like it less than any other project ever made. I feel like I permanently gave up a portion of my humanity to see it to the end... ad.mixx and Deathtank 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSori Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 (edited) It's hard to not pick an album you directed. I poured a ton of myself into A World Reignited and I feel like everyone on that album brought their A game. Arcadia Legends gave me the chance to do my first ReMix. Personal biases aside though. I have to give a shout out to Reserve Tank: VARIAtions. Watching the community rally around Blind and crank that album out in a ludicrously short amount of time was a sight to behold. it also gave us some absolute gems, among them: Big Giant Circles' "In Your Prime" and Zircon & (then) Pixietricks' Kindred, which is easily in my top 5 remixes on all of OCR.

orlouge82 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 So many to choose from, but the one that I still listen to the most today is Super Mario RPG Window to the Stars. derezr and Deathtank 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypnotikid Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Super Cartography Brothers or Chronopolis or Living On The Computer or Kong in Concert or Rise of the Star are my personal favorites. I do like all the free albums though so I listen to them as they become available. But man, Super Cartography Brothers is right up my edm alley. <3 Jonathan David Arndt, derezr and Deathtank 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillRock Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 It's probably not the best one (I haven't gone through all the OC Remix albums) but I always had a soft spot for Project Chaos. Is it perfect? No, it's got a few misteps, but it's got some absolute bangers on it, many of which still hold up 15 years later. Deathtank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Of course the best album has to be &Knuckles ;) On a more serious note, it's hard to rate any absolute favorite for me, but it would be a toss up between Balance & Ruin and Super Cartography Brothers for me, I think. Probably followed by a long list of honorable mentions. Deathtank and derezr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Clearly the best album was ReCapitated Deathtank and djpretzel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garpocalypse Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 That Sonic CD one. Temporal something... That Skies of Arcadia one. Arcadia ...somethings. and the last badass album. Para-somethings and Rene-somethings. The fact i was on these albums is irrelevant... but in order to at least attempt to not seem biased I'd add Vroom to the list as well. derezr and Deathtank 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hu Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Worlds Apart, probably (the FFIX one). Great genre variety, and a lot of tracks that feel personal. I've also not listened to anywhere near all of the albums, mind you. derezr and Deathtank 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan David Arndt Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Have really been enjoying a few tracks from Thieves of Fate (and have been very thankful for those here who have kept the torrent alive, as the direct download no longer works). https://ocremix.org/album/10/radical-dreamers-thieves-of-fate Geoffrey Taucer and derezr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkspast Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I have not posted anything in years, let alone visited OCR. But Kong in Concert, and the Super Street Fighter II Turbo: Blood on the Asphalt really have mega nostalgia for me. The DKC2 one was also awesome as well. I cant believe its been that long since its been out. IDK where the time goes but I was in high school when it came out now, ive got three kids. derezr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DIGGITY DOG. Thanks to this thread, I actually listened to the whole of SuCaBro. And DJ MIX by Global-Trance is getting loaded to the car stereo. We'll be driving around town with the windows rolled down, thumping around downtown in the minivan -- what's up! Seriously, this album made my day today. And will probably be there for many more days to come. (Have never been into EDM, and these will probably not be all-time favs, but it is still such good stuff!) EDIT : recommend converting from VBR to a constant-bit-rate for the car stereo (as for any long-running track, most of you probably know why...)

Geoffrey Taucer Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I also had not previously given Super Cartography Bros a listen, and am now listening because of this thread. @RoBKTAthis SMW map theme mix is excellent! derezr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) I'm super partial to Super Cartography Brothers' "It's-a-me" from Funk Fiction, it's my jam (to the extent that I tried to emulate some of that sound in a Crash Bandicoot track I did). But yeah, that album is great! Edited August 2, 2021 by Jorito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Add me to the list of people rediscovering SCB because of this thread. I'm almost certain I've actually listened to it before, but it must have not made an impression on me initially for some reason. Anyway it's great, so thanks! That said, I think Voices of the Lifestream still stands out to me, partially because of the sentimental value, but mostly the overall scope and execution...the whole thing was just on a scale practically unheard of for a fan effort back then. Andy truly deserves massive props in that regard. Although I have to admit I'm still a tiny bit sad "Musica Materia" lost the name contest. ? derezr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duskvstweak Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 For me, it's Final Fantasy VI: Balance and Ruin. That one nailed each track and my initial listen had me smiling from ear to ear. It's also the one where I realized how consistent and unified the directors and mixers were able to make a four disc album. None of the songs felt out of place and a bunch even compliment each other. I'm partial to FFVI in general, but it really was an awesome release. For pure fun, I'm also a fan of Heroes vs. Villains, which is just a party. derezr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
