sgx Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 EDIT: OFFICIAL DETAILS It's late so I'm just going to link to my webpage with the deets instead of writing it all out here for now. SGXRMX2 SGX Remix Project 2.0 huh...can you not edit titles in this forum? I'm thinking about running another remix contest. Probably this time I will pick three songs from Chroma that people can choose from, and I'll have zips full of individual audio files/loops available. I'm not going to produce another album of remixes (BTSB sold like poo), so they'll all be up for free, and maybe I'll stick them in as extra data content on my next album or something. I think I might just pick my favorite three I get and send those people SGX T-Shirts or something. Every submission will be posted on my site regardless of quality. Which three tracks from Chroma would you like to remix? I'm definitely including Coactive because I already have that sliced out for the Coactive flash thingy. I'm thinking Coactive, Me Semper Maneas, and Crowdpleaser/Crowdpleaser Drop The Mic Mix so people can have fun with vocals. What do you think? Just guaging interest right now. Due date would probably be April or something somewhat far off so plenty of people have time. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

OverCoat Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 You know, I should really do this. I think my list of musical obligations right now is pretty short, so... any time you're ready! I'm listening to Coactive right now, since that's all I have aside from "Haunting Memories" and "The Color of Battle." I might be able to do something with this.

WesPip Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I think I demand an Overcoat mix of Me Semper Maneas. It would no doubt be epic in one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverCoat Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I think I deleted that one because I didn't like Aurora's voice but it seems plenty of other people liked it anyway. I remember I really liked the instrumentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole Adams Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I'd like to do something with "Me Semper Maneas", but I don't know if I'd complete something in time. You know how I am with completing songs, Danny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Me Semper Maneas Coactive Crowdpleaser Coactive flash remixy game thing Actually I'm hearing some requests for Haven and I'd be interested in hearing that remixed. Ok, so links look the same as regular text in this forum now? And mrgreen doesn't work! I don't like this new forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vagrance Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Eh, I'm not crazy about the forum yet either, I'm waiting for them to re-skin it to something a lot better because this one blows. As for remixing, I'd do one in a heartbeat, mainly Coactive, Crowdpleaser, or Haven. I could use a new T-shirt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avaris Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I think mr.green approves of this remix compo idea. (right click on the mr.green image down at the bottom and copy, and then paster where u want it) Haven would def be a sick track to remix, along with the other 3. Maybe just do the 4 of them? Me Semper Maneas would also be pretty sick with some crazy glitch action. Are we strictly goin off of loops and audio samples, or will midis and rns files be available?

-RK- Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I would LOVE to remix Haven, but plan to give Coactive and Crowdpleaser a go as well. Thanks for the opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me Semper Maneas would also be pretty sick with some crazy glitch action. Are we strictly goin off of loops and audio samples, or will midis and rns files be available? I'll stick in the RNS files, but all of the tracks weren't made just with Reason. I worked with Reason, Project5 and ACID with all of those so the reason files won't be the whole story. What would be wild is some crazy mashups between some of the tracks. Well I'm gonna have to look through my stuff and make sure I can actually make loops out of all of it. Haven seems popular so I'll try and get that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vagrance Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I've done other remix contests before and all I've ever needed is .wav loops, one for the main melody, each one for the drums, synth loops, bass loops, percussion loop, all just taken straight from the song. Although i guess the .rns files would be nice as well, even if not all the information is in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I'd be up for possibly trying a remix for ya... Me Semper Meneas would be my choice, but i'd also be up for some Coactive juicy-ness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 Tite! I'm gonna try to get the files and something more official-like together in about a week or so. Will try to get all four tracks available for remixing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenPi Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Too wide!! lol.. yea I cant make sense of your project 5 file, and how it interacts with reason. The sound is very different, and I'm obviously missing alot of sounds. If you could make some sort of sample pack of that, that would be awesome. But it doesnt look as if there is too much want to remix that song. If not, then I'll take a crack at coactive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 I accidentally started my remix tonight. Made a beat and bassline, then accidentally clicked on a loop from Coactive in my Ableton Live browser, heard it preview with my new stuff......damn....had to bring that in! Wasn't planning on doing that. But this is gonna be the business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 i'm totally in. Me Semper would probably be my choice. But, I'll wait & see what tracks you decide to put up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 I've got Coactive, Me Semper Maneas, and Haven ready to go almost. I looked at Crowdpleaser and it will be a bit of a pain to chop up and I think I've remixed it plenty already, so I don't think I'll include CP. I think instead I'll do Lofi Attitude. It's probably not a favorite, but I'd love to hear some new stuff done with it. Expect a big project page with details and the files by this weekend hopefully.

The Unsung Plumber Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I think this will be really awesome. I might even give it a try, Even though I haven't remixed anything before. EDIT: hey SGX, how would you feel about(I.E. Allow) a mix that combined a few of the allowed songs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Yeah that's definitely cool. (I feel like I mentioned that somewhere already). In fact, what I'm working on has a little cross-remixination going on (Mostly Coactive, but a couple little Haven snips). You wanna hear it? I was gonna hold it but I am quite excited about what I've started. This is two nights work...structure is very loose right now, just gettin some grooves down. http://www.sgxmusic.com/sgxcoaction.mp3 edit: What do you guys think about prizes? Are T-Shirts good enough? I'll probably design a new shirt by then so hopefully it will be nifty.. Is there anything I could do instead? I could do CD's but I have a feeling half the people remixing already own an SGX CD. Maybe I can offer a choice. Free TShirt or free CD of choice.

Nicole Adams Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Maybe it's just me, but I think it'd be cool if you designed a special t-shirt that said something like, "I remixed SGX's [song title] and won this super green shirt." Put that on the back with "SGX" on the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenPi Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 hehehe, I think that would be a really neat idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I like the choice idea. Like we could either get a shirt, or... the new Album your working on when it's released. You know, the experimental one. That would totally be my pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avaris Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Yeah a copy of the new album whenit comes out would def friggin sweet. Besides that Nicole's T-Shirt idea is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 Ok details are up. http://www.sgxmusic.com/sgxrmx2.htm I gotta sleep. Can't edit topic titles in this forum? Maybe I should make a new thread.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
