VGDJ: Shownotes #038
[00:00] Presenting Snooper_1989's intro, the 3rd place winner from our intro contest. Good job, Snooper!
[00:48] pixietricks is sounding awfully manly today, eh? Anyway, while we're moving up in the ranks on Podcast Alley, more votes would be welcome.
[02:37] Doug "DrumUltimA" Perry apparently needs some "plastic knives" from pixietricks to "cut his grapefruit". Oh DrumUltimA, what will you do next?
[03:21] It's true, VGDJ is having a BIRTHDAY PARTY, and everyone's invited! If you're interested in coming (Saturday May 20th, in Philadelphia) or want more information, check the meetup thread.
[04:50] The Rama Report: PLAY! (a live video game music concert) announces the addition of legendary VGM composer Koji Kondo to their lineup. OverLooked ReMix was momentarily down for a server upgrade (as of this writing, it's back up). Finally, ThaSauce - where you can go for more community news - has recently reached 100,000 hits in just under a year. Woohoo!
[07:31] ReMix Review: From Wild Arms 2: 'Lord Blazer, The Robot who Chills with da Peeps' by ktriton ... We had a few mixed feelings about this experimental mix, but we agreed that it's well-produced with a deep arrangement. It might take a few listens to appreciate but it's worth it. ktriton also has some things to say about his inspiration for the mix, as well as the OneUps Live concert. We dig.
[13:14] zircon loves The Compo Report: ORC45, ORC46, PRC65, PRC66, PRC: A, and FLMC2.
[16:18] The OneUps Live isn't far off - what is it, you say? Why, it's a live video game music concert featuring a veritable all-star lineup of artists, from Ailsean to po!, and even our very own pixietricks! The show will be on Saturday, May 27th in Fayetteville, Arkansas, but tickets are limited, so if you're interested you better pick 'em up now. No self-respecting video game music fan should miss out on this.
[18:50] The Meetup Report: There is talk of upcoming Canada meetups; if you're interested, check out the discussion thread. But, more importantly, we have a call from the Phoenix, AZ meetup. Thanks, guys! Keep checking that thread, as well as the one for the Fargo, ND meetup, for pics of your favorite peeps! (-5 points for the Fargo kids... They didn't call in...)
[22:16] The LOCKDOWN is coming, and you know what that means.. a selection of ReMixes will be removed from OverClocked ReMix forever. Oh no! Don't worry - even though you probably won't miss most of the ones that are getting chucked, there are two places where you can go to pick up any ReMixes that were removed from the site (and there are quite a few). Check out Xerol's mirror as well as the SuperTux mirror if you're interested.
[24:40] Russian ReMix Roulette: What are "Nardz" anyway? Continuing our streak of not guessing the actual remix that gets played on the roulette, we landed on... Xenogears 'Bonds of Sea and Fire' by JAXX, with a roll of FOUR.
[30:13] pixietricks explains the mysterious interruption of the show's recording by a cockroach of - apparently - enormous proportions. It doesn't really bother "zorcin" though.. zearson? dixiechix? pixiedix? GrayLightning? More like GAYlightning! Making insulting variations of people's handles is fun.
[35:26] That's a wrap! Thanks for listening and please, don't forget to vote. :)
[37:02] VOICEMAIL: Paul, the seller dude from Resident Evil 4, leomania, Less Ashamed of Self with some good LOL material, Arcana (BOO HOCKEY), Fusion2004, and Abadoss.
