DJ Pretzel, you've been doing so much good stuff for the video game remix community for years. I remember back when OC Remix was 1.0 and you could still select tracks from drop-down menus. :) Things sure have gotten bigger since then but I still come back to some of your early mixes like F-Zero Mute Radiology OC Remix. Keep up the good work!
