VGDJ: Shownotes #029

[00:00] Thanks, debeerguy007, for the swanky intro! YOU rock. Just, uh, make sure you don't miss any shows from now on, because...you might die. o_O
[2:17] OMGLEIKCHRONOSYMPHONICISTOTLLYKOMINGOUTTHISWEEK!!1 Finally! Compyfox releases a little teaser of his sound mastering work, but I'm sure most people are paying more attention to his "wery vonderful" accent than anything else, right? Anyway, stay tuned for the front page feature on ocremix.org- it should be any day now! Much more to come on this next show.
[5:51] Speaking of teasers, the Tales of Phantasia/Symphonia Summoning of Spirits project has also created one, which you can hear playing as background music during this loverly episode of VGDJ. Dig it.
[6:28] Trot, trot to unmod, trot, trot to sin. Watch out, little poster, or you might FALL IN! The annual UnMod Awards are drawing close, so be sure to vote for your favorite bottom-dwellers in this event of pointless insanity! Categories include but are not limited to: Unmod king & queen, best newbie, best artist, best pimp, most memorable ban of 2005, and most likely to have sex with a chocobo. Remember, folks, unmod is people, too!
[8:35] Bum bum badada dum dum ba ba ba baaaaa! It's the weekly Compo Report! Kindly direct your attention to the following threads: ORC36 (the older one), ORC37 (the newer one), TOMC8, PRC57, and OVGMC3 back from the dead!
[12:24] ReMix Review: From Guardian Legend 'Ace of Space' by Beatdrop... Pardon us, as we seem to be having some identity issues this week. Let's get to the mix: what a cheerful submission from old-timer Beatdrop! Digressing somewhat from his usual edgy style, this mix brings in some more popular influences...in an Ace of Base kinda way. ^_~ Cheesy percussion, delicious bass, orchestral hits, vocoded voices, and a whiny, trumpet-like lead synth, it's a trip down memory lane! Unless you, y'know, didn't grow up in the 90's. But then you just suck. Woo hoo!
[15:11] So speaking of Beatdrop, he's back to bootcamp as of about week ago, and with no intarnet! Oh noes! In the holiday spirit of kindness and giving, fellow remixer Flik proposes that we send him a letter once a week with updates on what's going on in the community. What a grand idea! So feel free to post your contributions in the GenDisc thread. I'm sure it would be much appreciated. ^_^
[16:21] Christmas without Rama... It'’s hittin' home, I’m all alone
Christmas without Rama... so unfamiliarrrr...
Christmas without the love we shared, a little much to bear,
This Christmas... ;_;
(thasauce.net) ...........Oh wait, he showed! :o
[17:46] Russian ReMix Roulette: Random song picked from OverClocked ReMix's front page feature... Another double-header! (Yeh, thanks a lot for the one post, pr&tzel... :p) Neither Rayza nor Pixie win this week's roll, even though there were twice the odds.
pwnd (Rayza Edit: AHEM! I picked McVaffe!) Anyway, let's have a listening party! First is Hang-On's 'Journey to the Finish' by Ryu7x, followed by Zelda 3 'The Darkness and the Light' by McVaffe.
[32:47] Foshataaaa! (Ooh, say it again!) Fooooshataaaaaaaaa!!! Kudos to analoq, who recently made a hilarious little program that allows you to add subtitles to Japanese commercials. Check out the thread at animeremix.org to see creations made by other members of the community! Ahhhhh, so funny.
[34:11] Ummm, yeah, Pixie's building an igloo in her dorm, because Peabody Conservatory is too cheap for sufficient heating? Thanks, DHL! :D
[36:30] Rayza got a new mic! Hooray. Now he'll be able to record in excellent quality for next week's Christmas caroling episode, eh?
(Rayza Edit: No I have to give it back unless I wanna pay a shitload in rental fees)
[38:38] Everybody go hear Pixietricks' new anime remix!!! And then post a review in the forums, because anime remix needs a stronger community base, cha know?
[40:02] Sooooooo have a wonderful *holiday*, and we'll see you next week for a post-Christmas Chrono Symphonic extravaganza!
[SE:XY] VOICEMAIL: THERE IS NONE THIS WEEK. WHERE ARE YOU GUYYYYYSSSS??!?!?!
