Whenever I end up having doubts as to whether anything new can be done with some of the most well-known themes, we get some huge surprises (e.g. http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01599/ and http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01665/). No matter what, the community-at-large never fails to surprise and deliver. Thanks a lot for the OC ReMix mention, Shawn! Nice rundown of some essential visiting spots for game music (C64!) and VGM-inspired music in 8bitpeoples as well. Everyone should make visiting these places second nature. But I'm admittedly biased! If you ever wanted to do a retro-theme interview/Q&A with djpretzel, give me or him a holler. I've gotta check out some of your comics posts as well. Keep up the good work!
