Oh, man, I hate skipping re-RECs and then coming back to them after a week, but last week I was really sick with a bad cold, so I spent most of Sunday either unconscious or liveblogging the Emmys for work. Which reminds me, we probably need to have a talk about my work, hitRECorders. I know, I know, it doesn't pay me, but I like it quite a bit. And it is based around the TV season because I write about television. So in the summer, I have tons of time to be all good citizen-y and active and whatnot, but when the television season is just starting up, I have no time. Like, I'm not even joking. The amount of TV I watch (and then need to re-re-re-watch) is a truly distressing amount. Like, at least three hours a day, and that's assuming I don't also have an article due or a doctor's appointment or... you get the idea. The point is I'll be around a little less, but that doesn't mean I don't love you guys, okay? I just have a kid from my first marriage called Television, and I can't be expected to not pay attention to my baby.

Generally I'm guessing this will impact you all very little in your day-to-day lives. The only way it really effects mine is that I no longer have time to go through every RECord on the site. And that makes me sad, because I used to take a lot of pride in going through everything and finding some hidden gems, but alas. It's become too big a chore. So since I can no longer do that, I'd really, really appreciate if everyone could help me maintain my album of Copyright Violations. Just leave a comment with a link and I'll look into it if you see something. Heck, if you see something you're not sure about, leave me a link anyway. I'll figure it out for you. (Another way you could help would be not to violate copyright laws, but if you're reading this chances are you haven't been, so well done, you!)

And now that that's out of the way, re-RECs.

Resource Recommendations (Great RECords that want to be remixed into a big final product)

For Image Remixers
Fingerprint Heart by SIANGR (great to either use as a whole image or just to yoink the texture from)
Planet 04 by dgroeneman
Claw by dkonstruxion
lattice of pearl and sea by rejjie (J'ADORE J'ADORE J'ADORE. I want to wallpaper my room with this.)

For Video Editors
Pan of Amoeba from 2nd Floor by MikeK (Not just good for whatever Amoeba summation video, but just really useful footage in general)
Cafe by Mr.Green (Gorgeous stock footage. Just utterly gorgeous.)
pride & joy by InkedCanvas

For Audiophiles
Songs of the Night by TheWayTimMoves (Amazing instrumental track that's begging for Dispatch meets Dave Matthews-esque vocals. I'd prove them, but I know when something's better served in someone else's hands, and this definitely is.)
open your heart by megancarnes (Eventually this will be great for a video, but first it needs something layered over it, like a poem reading or something. Megan's also apparently looking for an orchestra, so you should check that out.)

Mostly-Finished RECords

I know nothing is ever really "done" on hitRECord, but in this section is stuff that's done-ish. IE: it doesn't obviously have stuff that needs to be done to it right away.

Untitled 2 by ThePole - Ugh, this is gorgeous. So gorgeous. So, so gorgeous. I have a real weakness for weird love and weird love confessions.

cut out formal by wirrow - Everyone and their mother has re-rec'd this, and for good reason. It's perfect. Marke doesn't even need to make a poster, it's already done, and gorgeous. And take my word for it, dudes, the fact that wirrow made purple work is pretty impressive. Purple is a really, really difficult color to work with, for me, at least. It's up there with green on "can go wrong so, so easily".

Graveyard Blues by Spacebassoddity - Uh. May. Zing. If you like Johnny Cash and wish there were some secret lost b-sides, it's like your wish has been granted! Go! Revel in it!

The Box Challenge by Proi - I love seeing how artists work, and this was a great little challenge Proi set up for herself. More artists! Show how you do stuff! It's awesome! And Proi's end result is amazing, too, and great for photoshop remixing.
