VGDJ: Shownotes #056
[00:00] One must truly appreciate what is undoubtedly the greatest marketing idea of our time.
[01:04] Enter VGDJ, stage left. Wait, Saturday? Huh? If you're reading this you've surely noticed our schedule has changed in a way that should better accomodate both you, our loyal listeners, as well as us.
[03:15] We don't need proxy voting to stay high on the PodcastAlley charts! Show those forum meanies that we mean business and keep on giving us your legit votes.
[04:29] The Rama Re-oops, maybe not this week. Buuuut we do have our own little announcement to make. Listen in to the next episode of "The Next Level" on GameMusicRadio, cause we're gonna be interviewed on there!
[06:36] ReMix Review: Final Doom 'Milagro Del Demonio' by TO ... Yay for Aussies! TO seems incapable of dropping a groove that ISN'T catchy, and the Doom soundtracks are really suited for his style. Like his Raptor mix, it certainly wouldn't have hurt to have an extra instrument or two in there; but even considering that small quibble, this is still Hott stuff.
[09:36] ReMix Review: Star Ocean: The Second Story 'Into Your Kamikaze' by blizihizake / Blake Perdue ... Like Darkesword, chthonic, and Tyler Heath, blizihizake is one of the few mixers left using exclusively free samples. Yet even with that handicap, he managed to create an incredibly intricate orchestral mix with great dynamics and a great arrangement. He said his goal was to prove that he could write an orchestral ReMix that wasn't "boring". Suffice it to say, we think he succeeded!
[12:49] The Compo Report: PRC, TOMC, and FLMC.
[14:32] \m/ \m/ - That's right. Those are "the horns", poorly represented to the best of zircon's ability, in ASCII. And you're gonna need 'em if you plan on listening to or participating in Dwelling of Duels. DoD is a monthly ReMix competition that many OCReMixers participate in, and it's based around live instruments. If you're just not getting your daily recommended dosage of ROCK from OCR, than you gotta check DoD out. Don't take our word for it though...
[15:41] Goemon's Great Adventure 'Devil's Heaven' by SnappleMan (DoD June winning entry)
[17:37] Nooooo, GrayLightning! ;_; Our beloved judge, moderator, and new age/orchestral ReMixer has said goodbye to OCR and moved on to a professional, full time career in music. And while no one can fill the gap that he left, it is of some comfort that zyko has sorted out things in his personal life and has made return to OCR and the judge's panel. We hope that will also translate to new ReMixes, now that he has some free time. With these changes, what can we expect to see next? Perhaps Wingless making a triumphant return? ... well, maybe not...
[19:59] The Meetup Report: OCR Toronto, tentative Pittsburgh, PA meetup, tentative Australia QLD meetup, Video Games Live in LA meetup, an additional planned Seattle meet, and Shael Riley NYC concert.
[23:37] Russian ReMix Roulette: WEEK ONE of the Campaign to Keep the RRR Alive (or CKRRRA for short) has begun. We will not idly sit by and watch our Roulette be heartlessly dismantled piece by piece. djp, you monster! A fitting mix was selected to represent our noble cause - Final Fantasy 7 'Fight On' by CarboHydroM.
[31:20] Nothin' like a glass of water to sip while your hosts discuss the merits of eating VGDJ Brand ReMixing Fuel, their ReMixer handles, Hot Pockets, zircon's incredibly smooth and obviously effective pickup line, which is so powerful that it cannot be written down in any form, and more. Good times.
[38:04] Will pixietricks be swayed by the irresistable charm of Kuroikaze's pickup line? Will Rama ever consistently submit a report? Why did we say Cyan_Ide's recording was good when it was actually worse than usual? Find out, on the next episode of DRAGONBALL Z! Err, VGDJ. And to pass the time while you're waiting, visit our OCR thread, Cafepress store, and photo album. Oh, and voting for us at podcastalley.com to keep us in the top 10 of ALL podcasts wouldn't hurt either.
[41:02] VOICEMAIL: Kento, Fragment, Salty, DJAnubis, Fragment again, and Peter.
