OverClocked ReMix is a video game music community with tons of fan-made ReMixes and information on video game music.


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.

I forget people don’t know about OCR.

@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…

I haven’t thought about OCRemix in like 20 years. Can’t believe it’s still around! I used to download songs off here and play them through WinAmp while playing EverQuest, which had pretty dire music.

Same!!! I probably used it about 20 years ago and, until this post, had completely forgotten it existed. Holy crap how time flies. I can’t believe it’s still a thing and going strong.

I used to be a frequent poster/commenter on OCR and the lesser known parody site OverLooked Remix way back in the day. It always warms my heart to see that site still going strong and seeing remixes from it used during Speedrun marathons on twitch

@wagesj45 So much amazing stuff came out of OCRemix. I absolutely need to look up more.
