is there a way I could make a song for this album since we don't have the artwork? I was thinking me and some others could do a cover of a song from under defeat or do a jazz remix of a song from under defeat. I am a drummer btw.

Lolz, was just about to bump this. The deadline is somewhat nebulous at the moment, as I'm still looking for a talented artist(s) to design a front/back cover(s). Are you still up for doing the mastering, Eretsua?

I feel as though I've neglecting this lately, but since I've finally found a shitty job after a particularly terrifying 5 months of unemployment, I should be able to give it my full attention again :P

I'll be uploading my next song later tonight, and hopefully I'll get my third one done before... whatever the deadline is.

A preliminary tracklist would be great. (Of both the titles posted in this thread and those that got sent to you in other ways.)

Sorry, my ISP has been a dickshit all day. It cut off my upload several times (twice near the end), with with 1kb/s upload speed, that was damned cold hearted. I'll try again later today... hopefully with better results.

So we are aiming for an xmas present :D ?

I will start creating a web page, cover on top, tracks below in a table.

Table: title, original composer and name of mixer, then a small icon to click to download.

MX7 could you PM me the track list so I can create a skeleton page ?

The Coop, love your last submission :D

It's almost certain that I've missed a track or two along the way. Please don't be offended if I have; I've had submissions through pm, email and in the main body of the thread, so it's fairly easy to overlook a track. If you see any mistakes, or think I don't have your track, feel free to pm me and I'll get correcting :)

This is going to be an awesome xmas present :D

MX7- The title of my Raiden Trad remix is "Heading For Home v2". The "v2" is needed, as the first version (called simply "Heading For Home") was released years ago. The differentiation is important to me.

Also, the "v3" in my just posted "Bio Tech v3" (look a few posts above yours ;)) is important for the same reason.




rtw- Thanks :)

Just to clarify...

Artist - Title - Game
joeboto - Heart Beat - Batsugun
joeboto - Kiniro no hoshi furu utakata no yoru ni - Mushihimesama Futari
joeboto - Gallantry - Raiden

Should the track listing contain the original composer or should that be stored in the MP3 tag: composer ?

I filled out the ID3v2 tags on my remixes, and put the file names as name_game_song title.

For the ID3v2 tags, I filled out the lines like so...

"Title" (your remix title)
"Artist" (you)
"Year" (when you wrote your remix)
"Genre" (the musical style your remix was done in)
"Comment" (mentioning the title of the video game song that was remixed, what system the game was on, and the game title)
"Original Artist" (who wrote the original game tune you remixed)
"Copyright" (company that owns the game)
"URL" (namely, your homepage if you have one, or the site for the album to be grabbed)
"Encoded" (whatever program you used to make the MP3, like LAME)

I don't want to nitpick but shouldn't we use the "composer" field instead ? It doesn't really matter as long as we are consistent though...

Given that these are remixes, "Composer" could be either the artist that composed the remix, or the artist who composed the song that was remixed. "Original Artist" is a field that has always seemed to be specifically included for remixes, as the one who wrote the remix, may not be the one who came up with the song the remix is based on. It's specifically there to credit someone other than yourself if the need arises (unless of course, you remixed your own tune).

Thanks for this information, we'll use "Original Artist" then :D

Please change the ARTIST for my track to "Orcshop", as my whole band (minus the singer) was involved. I merely played the bass guitar.

The original composer of the track is Ron Klaren, btw.

Update: My third song is almost done being written. I just have a few sections to tweak and/or finish. I was hoping to have it done by the end of this weekend, but it looks more like it'll be Wednesday or Thursday next week (the 17th or 18th). I'm 90% sure it'll be done and ready to go then.
