VGDJ: Shownotes #036

[00:00] In an unexpected turn of events, Wingless is defeated by his mortal enemy; a slice of pizza.
[01:16] A new host? WUT? Even if you hate judgefgts, keep those votes coming! We're lagging behind this month, and you don't want that to happen, do you?
[03:03] From the ashes of Wingless arises a new host; zircon! As a judge, moderator, and ReMixer, while he might not do a good Compyfox impression, he's definitely on top of things in the VG arrangement community. w00t!
[04:25] Compo Report, yo! Cyan_Ide has the hookup for your compo craving. We've got TOMC, PRC: Anime, ORC, FLMC, PRC, and PTSC. Phew!
[07:46] ReMix Review: From Super Mario Brothers 2: 'Gypsy Jazz' by Adrian Holovaty ... Who says you can't have fun with just one instrument? Adrian brings a playful and unique take on a classic SMB2 theme with nothing more than his trusty guitar. If only we could pronounce his last name.
[10:36] ReMix Review: From F-Zero: 'Voices Broken' by JigginJonT ... Electronica this ain't; we haven't seen any alternative rock ReMixes for awhile, so Jon delivered. Slick live guitarwork, expertly sequenced drums, screaming solos.. you won't want to miss this highly creative mix. Check it out.
[12:51] ReMix Review: From Final Fantasy Mystic Quest: 'Meow Meow' by Christian Pacaud ... Beautiful. Evocative. Breathtaking. These are all words that.. DON'T describe this OverLooked ReMix. As zircon explains, "OLR" is a site for all the poor, underappreciated, and neglected ReMixes of the world. Or maybe they're just really, really bad. Either way, we wholeheartedly endorse at least one visit.
[16:11] A new ReMix site that's not VGmix? Yes, as pixietricks explains, it's true. Remix: ThaSauce is here. While the standards aren't quite as high as OCR, the music is still enjoyable, and it's a great place for ReMixers who are still learning the ropes to get some exposure. You can even find songs by posted OC ReMixers like Darkesword, sadorf, Shnabubula, and Suzumebachi there, so don't hesitate to give it a look (or listen).
[17:49] We give you the skinny on this year's April Fool's Day prank at OCR, something which has become a tradition over the past few years. Maybe paying $15 a month for the privilege of listening to ReMixes didn't fool us, but we still got a kick out of "Terra Fortnight Megamix" and the hijinx that occured throughout the day on the OCR boards. Besides, it's hard to top EA ReMix ("It's in the Mix!").. which a certain host DID fall for ;)
[20:22] The Meetup Report: pixietricks tells a tale of the recent merriment at the Baltimore meetup on April 1st; check out the thread for pics and videos!
Fargo, ND Meet: April 21st through 23rd, no set time or specific location yet. Ten listed attendees so far though!
[24:17] Russian Remix Roulette: Though pixietricks was tempted by the BootyMix, the cosmic forces that be ended up on an old-school OCR classic. Valis 3: 'Simon's Symphony', by Visions of the Future.
[27:17] pixietricks ponders the hidden life of judges, and seeks nothing less than full disclosure! zircon has a few things to share about a certain someone on the panel. Also, if you're still hankering for some tunes at the end of every podcast, look no further than Ormgas, the official streaming internet radio station of OverClocked ReMix, which runs 24/7.
[30:41] Peace out! This may be the end of the show, but your journey to vote for us has just begun! Remember, you can contact us during the week at vgdjpodcast@gmail.com, or leave us a voicemail at 1-800-990-VGDJ.
[32:18] VOICEMAIL: Fresh out of the oven! It's.. Drunken WesPip giving some props, Abadoss, Drunken WesPip 2: The Return of WesPip, and DrumUltimA with perhaps a little too much information for us.
[35:21] [stinger]
