VGDJ: Shownotes #037
[00:00] Seasonal greetings from VGDJ! Sort of...
[00:52] Spring is here in full bloom. But that doesn't mean you can't drop us a line or vote for us, right? Atta' boy...
[02:50] That was Andyjayne's intro you heard this week. Congrats on your second place winning entry! We loved it.
[03:20] Design changes abound at OverClocked ReMix, but not without a bit of controversy. New, sleeker pages and tables along with repositioned menus didn't particularly bother us, of course. ZOMG SIDEBAR LOL
[04:26] VGDJ redesigns, too! Our friendly neighborhood renaissance man Cyan_Ide and his friend Justin have come through and worked with us to fashion a new look for the site. Check out the new info pages, send us your pics for the VGDJ Action Shot Album, and don't forget about OCR-tan. :)
[06:21] The Rama Report: Annual video game and music convention MAGFest now has a set date and location for its fifth iteration; you can register and find out more at their site. The newly opened Remix: ThaSauce is thriving and rumor has it, John Romero is even giving it a look. Rama reminds potential submitters that R:TS accepts a wide variety of remixes, even those that would not be allowed at OCR. For more community news, visit ThaSauce!
[10:23] ReMix Review: From Lufia: 'Metastatic Bloodline' by Darangen ... Mr. Boyd never fails to bring us enjoyable instrumental rock mixes. Fans of his previous work will certainly enjoy this one, and the fact that it's not too different from his tried-and-true style didn't bother us at all.
[12:23] ReMix Review: From Earthbound: 'See Sixty Funk' by Mazedude ... Ch-ch-chiptune! Originally a part of the Earthbound Bound Together ReMix project (sorry, we said American Album by mistake!), this gritty & dirty mix stumped the judges a bit when it was first submitted; however, lo-fi doesn't necessarily mean bad. Listen for yourself and find out why.
[15:30] Compo Report: pixietricks really likes Cyan_Ide, who brings us the latest competition news: PRC:A XI, TOMC11, PTSC2, ORC45, PRC65, PRC66, and FLMC2.
[BLEEP] God damn you, Diablo D3! >:o
[18:52] I don't know how or why, but somehow... Rap + Chrono Trigger + ridiculously annoying DJ = ...GOOD?!?! Observe with thine own ears at chronotriggermixtape.com. Hey, if zircon can like it, anyone can. (Down with raphate!)
[20:35] Pixie announces the official debut of The Meetup Report, brought to you by resident percussionist and wide-mouthed frog DrumUltimA.
[21:07] The Meetup Report: Gotta love that theme song, eh? DrumUltimA exhibits some impressive linguistic skills right off the bat in our first ever "official" (whatever that means) meetup report... and such forth and...stuff. The Fargo, ND Meet will be held from April 21st-23rd, with Saturday as the bulk of the meetup events. And come on- who *wouldn't* wanna hang out in el casa de Flik? The Phoenix, AZ Meet is projected for that same Saturday (April 22nd), and will be located at The Paper Heart theater because, um, like, Minibosses show and stuff. They're pretty much the most famous videogame cover band out there, so don't miss it if you're in the area!
[23:30] Mad props to DrumUltiRash for a job well done! (Just make sure you're not clipping so much in recording next time, kay?)
[23:58] Russian ReMix Roulette: No, the roulette ain't rigged, folks. It's just that djpretzel has SIXTY-SIX FRIGGIN' REMIXES ON THE SITE! Good stuff. With an adrenaline-racing roll of three, we bring you... Frogger 'Funkaphibian Dub' by the main man, djpretzel.
[29:47] An innocent attempt at poking fun of zircon's lovable New York accent culminates into a heated BASEBALL BATTLE. Seriously, how did we never realize this before? Pixie's from Boston, zircon's from New York... Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh. Johnny Damon may have crapped on Jill's heart, but that doesn't stop her from cueing the Dirty Water, yay-yeah!.
[33:12] And another delightful episode comes to a close. Contact info, blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah... Last one to VOTE is a rotten Easter egg! ^_~
[34:57] VOICEMAIL: Abadoss, Geoffrey Taucer, Hemophiliac, EazyP, and Upthorn- how are you guys so awesome? You're totally stealing the show. Thanks for calling 1-800-990-VGDJ!
