DCT/Sonic Skillz – Music Composer, Producer, Remixer
Game Music Arrangements, Music
Before the "Great Computer Crash of 2011," I was working on a tribute album for the Bad Dudes, where I'd create remixes for every song and theme their albums were based on. Then the "Crash" happened and I didn't get much farther than this CHRONOTORIOUS-inspired track.

Song: Vs. Team Kenya | Composer: Kazuo Sawa This track was my contribution to OCR’s Super Dodge Ball project, which was a LONG time in the making. What started out as KyleJCrb making a tongue-in-cheek remark on Twitter, became me hopping on this project and an eventual collab with talented peeps in LuIzA, Urbanizm‘s Mr....

Song: Take the Snow Train | Composer: Fumie Kumatani, Naofumi Hataya, Tomoko Sasaki Merry Christmas, everybody! I decided (with some encouragement from JM) to get into the holiday spirit by joining The Speed Gamers‘ Obligatory Ice Level Day, in which arrangers tackle songs from snow/ice levels in video games. I picked Take the Snow Train...

Song: Level BGM | Composer: unknown This wasn’t the Mega Ran collab I alluded to previously, but it’s still a good one! One of Random’s fans ran the idea of a Cheetahmen II track by him, and he then ran it by me. After thinking, “WTF is Cheetahmen II?” I heard the source and knocked...

Song: Credits | Composers: Naoto Tanaka, Naoya Kamisaka, Takuya Miyawaki Happy New Year, everyone! I figured it’d be a good idea to start the year off with some new music, so here’s an arrangement I recently completed. I was in a bit of a bind when I didn’t know what vg song I wanted to...

Song: 7am | Composers: Kazumi Totaka, Kenta Nagata, Tōru Minegishi, Shinobu Tanaka Oh boy…what can I say about Joe Cam? If you hear a song where he’s doing vocals, chances are that it’s not for the kiddies. And when it comes to Chico Ray, it’s definitely not for the kiddies. This song was originally going...

Yes, that’s true, but obviously I haven’t done it in about a few weeks, and I figure I owe it to the people who come here – no matter how many or few there may be – to at least keep you up to date on what’s been going on: For one, I got a...

Song: The Tragic Prince | Composers: Michiru Yamane If you’re not familiar with the Bad Dudes, they are a collective of musicians who put together video game remix albums. Some are good friends of mine, and some are even Urbanizm Music artists as well. When Joshua Morse recruited me to join in on a Castlevania:...

Song: Sub Castle BGM | Composers: Koji Kondo I’ve loved the Sub Castle BGM from SMW since I was a kid, so much so that I have remixed it like 4 times now (hence the word “revisited”). I wanted to do something epic, that started off decent, got real big, and ended somewhat peacefully, and...

Song: Ice Cap Zone | Composers: Bobby Brooks, Brad Buxer, Darryl Ross, Doug Grigsby III, et al. This is definitely my most popular remix, and to date it’s my only track on OverClocked ReMix. There are about a zillion remixes of Ice Cap Zone floating around the internet (and I don’t think I’m exaggerating either!),...
