I figured since we’re currently in a reawakening to decentralized and special purpose forums and websites, now might be a good time to remind people of OCRemix. Or help someone discover it for the first time.

    @wagesj45 Great idea! I know and listen to OC Remixes since over a decade I think, when it was relatively small. Its my favorite non commercial music platform ever. They respect the original songs and artists, it’s really a place from fans for fans.

    They even have Torrents to download ton of stuff: https://ocremix.org/torrents Here direct link to the two major Torrent links:

    You can even use the music on videos in example, but have to give credit. More about that here: Frequently_Asked_Questions Can_I_use_OC_ReMixes_in_my…

      A decade? Isn’t ocremix at least another decade older than that? I wanna say like closer to 2000 or 2001ish.

      Edit: Wikipedia says December 1999

        @SCmSTR Dang! You are right, if I think about it. Learned about OC Remix in early 2000s. Wow. Forgot how old I am… Literally remember how I bring mp3 files to my friends home to show off how crazy songs there are.

          Lol did you do it on cd, some device, or during a lan .

          I still have folders on my hdds that have migrated from very old hdds that are like “xxxPersonNames music” that we used to just copy during our small lans around 2003. I gotta check now to see if I have any old ocremix files in there from around that time. I bet I do…

            @SCmSTR No we never did Lan parties at home unfortunately. :-( But we played a lot of fighting games back then and the repeating songs got old. So we often just turned down the music and played something from hard drive. :-) So in a sense like LAN parties without LAN. Can we call it WLAN Party? :D

            And in the past I experienced the worst thing that could have happened to anyone: Losing all personal data on HDDs! My younger self didn’t know that backups was important.
