VGDJ: Shownotes #048

[01:05] Okay, wtf...? Mini episode MY ARSE! We may have cut out all the weekly reports and Russian ReMix Roulette, but this show still ended up coming to almost 40 minutes! In any case, your dearest cohosts have lives outside of VGDJ (believe it or not), and didn't have the time to edit a full show this week. Solly...
[04:07] VOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTE!
[05:00] But that's okay, because we have some special things in the works for our next two shows! Episode 049 will feature the very first installation of zircon's brand new remixing tutorial, appropriately titled "The Flow Basket." Aaaaaaand, as if that isn't enough, OUR FIFTIETH EPISODE IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. Many surprises in store.
[06:32] Announcing the second winner of our Awkward Trivia Contest Giveaway: lancer130! Congrats: your answer was thorough...........ly amusing! Hyuck hyuck. Be on the lookout for SuperGreenX's remix albums "Chroma" and "Better Than Sliced Beats," for they shall be arriving soon. And now, for your last chance to win these phat beats...

This week's question: We've had three *stingers thus far that have been connected in their theme and concept. Tell us what they are, and what episodes they were on. (And no, they aren't about Rama, because we totally make fun of him all the time. ^_~) Additionally, we would like to know your most embarrassing nickname, explained for all the world to hear! As always, be sure to email your response to vgdjpodcast@gmail.com by noon this Thursday!

* ("Stinger" is the term we use to describe the random bit we tack on at the very end of each show, after the voicemail section.)
[09:42] PIXIE PUBLICLY HUMILIATES ZIRCON by revealing his embarrassing nickname. But being a nice little fairy, she evens out the count with her own. What do you think? "Bear and Jillybean discuss the world of OverClocked ReMix, a community dedicated to the appreciation and reinterpretation of video game music"...? Hmmm, maybe next Easter.
[11:43] ReMix Review: From Awesome: 'Game Over (Cheeze Mix)' by Erik S ... OMG learn how to spell "cheese," kay? XD And cheesy it is... kind of like an 80's vampire movie! Solid work from Erik S.
[14:37] ReMix Review: From 7th Guest: 'Microscopism' by Mazedude ... Pixie must remember to wipe her drool listening to this sexy Mazedude remix. (Question is, does the adjective "sexy" modify the noun "Mazedude" or "remix" in this context? Guess you'll never know!) Zircon is very happy to read an original composer name that he can pronounce, and you're sure to dig this quirky industrial track!
[17:16] ReMix Review: From Final Fantasy 7: 'The Twelf Commandment' by Midee and Prozax ... A dynamic duo indeed! Midee and Prozax put their heads together yet again for a smashing rock/orchestral remix. Definitely check out the whole song from das linken above, because it was difficult to choose just one section to feature on the show. This piece is ever-changing!
[20:14] ReMix Review: From Zombies Ate My Neighbors: 'The Curse' by Christian Pacaud ... Captain Christian Pacaud of the U.S.S. Enterprise! XD This mix is a great example of "reinterpretation." The source tunes weren't all that great, to be quite honest, so we were impressed with what C-Pac was able to create under the circumstances. Exxxxcccellent. (Pixie edit: Oh yeah, and sorry about my laughing at your voice crack, Zirkie dear... NOT~~@~!)
[22:56] Still laughing!
[23:29] GET AWAY FROM US YOU SCARY CALLERS! Here is a little collection of disturbing voicemails we received this past week. Thanks Toot, Abadoss, and Ray...?
