OC ReMix #4945: Friday the 13th "You and Your Friends Are Dead." by Juan Medrano

https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR04945

Trick or treat!!! It's a bit of both, as I've outsourced this year's Halloween writeups to the community-at-large, who came through in spades! (If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go as a team!) A tremendous THANK YOU to gravitygauntlet, Chimpazilla, minusworld, The Vodoú Queen, WiFiSunset, and Argle for taking time out, which has easily made this the biggest Halloween ReMix release day in OCR history! Enjoy this magnificent seven of vampire-, haunted castle-, hellride-, dystopia-, greedy-capitalist-, blood-drippingly-, hack-and-slash-appropriate VGM arrangements! :-)

Rounding out our treasure trove of macabre offerings is rock GAWD Juan Medrano with a lil' John Carpenter/Halloween influence on a DASTARDLY NES game, Friday the 13th! We've got Juan, we've got John, and now [/shrieks] we've got JASON! :-O I HATED this game as a kid, not for being bad... for being SCARY and stressful as shit! I could NEVER keep the kiddos or the camp counselors alive, ugh. Well, at least Juan says he had fun:

"Just a remix of the Friday the 13th cabin theme I started several years ago. Wanted an atmospheric, spooky 80s horror film sound with modern, heavy guitars. Pretty simple. Spooky rock/metal/whatev. As always, had a blast playing around with those vintage synth sounds."

The fun Juan had taking on this dark, forboding, earworming theme was noticed by judge prophetik music:

"opens with bells and some distant strings. big prototypically evil bass synth comes in soon after as well as some limited kit with loads of verb on it. [...] guitar comes in at 1:25 and sounds great, as expected. 2:18 the drum rhythm changes a bit and is more intense which is nice [...]

They did in the one I saw. Like direct quotes from execs to the employees that they should only be concerned with increasing the stock price, and the way to influence that was to increase assembly throughput. But this was a few years ago, so probably not the one he is talking about

yfw plane/train autism existed in ancient greece but it was with ships instead 

25. Thrasyllus of the deme of Aexone suffered a strange new form of madness. He left the city and went down to live at the Piraeus. He imagined that all the ships coming into harbour there were his own. He made a list of them, attended when they departed once more, and was de-lighted when they returned safely to the harbour. For a long time he continued to suffer from this mania. But his brother, returning from Sicily, handed him over to a doctor to be cured, and in this way he recovered from the illness. He often recalled his mad hobby and used to say that he had never been so happy as when he rejoiced at the sight of ships which did not belong to him returning safely.

Mmmm home made cottage cheese 🧀 🍽 The school got funding for the summer take-home lunch program and we end up with a gallon of milk per kid (x2 !) per week. That is way too much milk. Most of it is in the freezer. I think I will have to try string cheese next.
