In short, remixSite is a place where composers and artists can share their video game music with the world.

Over the years, video games have developed into a multi-billion dollar industry. Today's games involve millions of hours of work, and take years to produce. The music contained in these, as well as older, games is an equal work of art that is often overlooked. Whereas movie soundtracks have been praised for years, until 2005 video game music was largely a curiosity outside Japan. It is only recently that concerts consisting solely of video game music, such as Play! A Video Game Symphony and Distant Worlds: Music From Final Fantasy have sold thousands of tickets around the world.

Some games today are even marketed on the strength of their soundtracks' primary composers. For example, Lost Odyssey advertised in its pre-release commercials that its music was composed by legendary composer Nobuo Uematsu. However, most composers and artists remain underappreciated.

remixSite exists so that both hobbyists and professionals can post their work and continue to improve it through community input. Anyone can register for free and post songs, and they can review other songs. Most importantly, users may post works in progress, or songs that are not quite ready for final release, so that they may receive feedback on their creations. As songs improve and are released, they can be superceded by newer versions, and listeners can compare songs to older versions to provide feedback. Upon final release, they are then publicized in the song charts, allowing everyone to download and enjoy your work. Songs are not filtered for inclusion by judges; instead, reviews and ratings allow users to decide which songs are of the highest quality. We will never delete songs that could be improved upon, so both well-known and starting-out composers will find remixSite to be a great place.
