Video Game Music Remixing

[KentaRawr!]

Some board members here are aware of sites like OCremix (http://www.ocremix.org), where Music Remixes can be found. Though the term is threatening, it's normally not some form of techno. It's usually just using the melody of a song, or more than one song, and using it in a different way than in the original. Currently, I'm listening to the remix Nayru's Love (http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01417/) as I write this.

What do you think of Video Game Music Remixes?

I love video game music remixes. In fact, remixes comprise a large portion of my music collection.

VGMix (http://www.vgmix.com/) is another video game music community. I suggest taking a look at it if you have some time! This site was a rival of OverClocked ReMix (http://www.ocremix.org/) several years ago.

[Jessweeee♪]

YES! I love them <3

I especially love these Ace Attorney themes made by a member of Court Records n.n

[Markus. D]

I'll ussually enjoy an original more~


But yes, Remixes ftw!

Metroid Metal is godly =]

I love remixes. OCremix songs make up a lot of my music collection. In fact, I'm working on a remix of my own right now.

It's kind of hit-or-miss, but when it's a hit, it's awesome. I subscribe to the OCRemix RSS feed and everything.

It looks like VGMix is being spamulated.

I'm a big fan of the Project Touhou series, and the group IOSYS does a lot of game music remixes, often adding lyrics to them as well.

Lower Noirfair (I think) is awesome.

Why haven't I ever encountered this on the Internets?

It took me a long time to discover it as well. I first discovered "remixes" on VGMusic - 25,000+ Game Music MIDI files (http://www.vgmusic.com), but that site is really mostly good just for finding midi versions of video game songs. However, Dr. Fruitcake made a certain remix I really liked, but now I forget what it was.

Video game remixes are great stuff :p

My favourite remix album so far though is Sound Holic's "風 -KAZE-" - with the exception of the first track, the whole CD is vocal remixes of various tracks from Mountain of Faith :p

Is Sanae's theme one of them ('Faith is for the Transient People')? If it is, I am so getting it. Even if it isn't, I'd still get it, because Mountain of Faith has some of the best songs so far, (though the Perfect Cherry Blossom soundtrack still owns my soul xD).

I can't get enough of game music remixes. I'm all over that, it composes something like 80% of my entire playlist.

I got my hands on an official remix album of songs from Mega Man 1-6 that was released in December. It is... fucking awesome.

That's a pretty nice remix, there.
