Kind of an extension of the original, abit rearranged, slight odd time signiture later on for fun. Mix of ambient and uhh, I dunno, hard funky electronic?

Hey there. Released 4 of my original tracks from the Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun mod Twisted Insurrection soundtrack, remastered, as an EP under my band name!

Altered the mix a bit so the kick and bass might be clearer together, and generally reduced compression on some of the instruments. It's got a bit more space in it, and will probably need to make a bit more room for the vocals too, but that'll be a separate mix.

Thanks for your response. I guess I could try EQing after the effects too, see if it makes a big difference. I do separate many tracks across the channels, but with the bass I think it can lose focus more and get muddy quite quickly, although mirroring it to a separate channel that only outputs reverb which is spread out a bit can be quite nice depending on the sound you want. I should have someone for vocals who I think will be quite great! I will update this when that version is done.

Hey, I rather like it. I could hear it in a movie or something. But I think it needs a bit more edge, especially on your voice. I think some distortion could work really well. Your voice, and the instruments early on, sound very clean and a bit naive or something.

Would like some feedback, particularly on mixing and overall sound as I struggle with that I think. For instance I like the bass sound, but it feels kind of disconnected and I don't know how to fix it. Same with the end lead I think (at least in the beginning, before it goes up an octave). It would be great to get a singer on it too! I think a female voice would be a nice contrast to the original, but I'm open to suggestions.

I'm cleaning up and putting together the most polished stuff I've done so far towards a first album (or I may give up and just do an EP). I'd like to hear what people think about it, as often I'm not sure it's anything anyone would really want to listen to. I'd also like to know what genre this would most fit in too as I have no real idea how I would market it at all. It doesn't sound a lot like the synthwave / retrowave stuff I hear, or anything that's been derived from it. Band name suggestions would be cool to hear too!

I guess you mean the voice sample? There is in the last 45 seconds. That is the biggest homage to the original. With the rest of the track I didn't want it to be too similar because I want to stop doing what are basically covers and actually do remixes, which IMO should be taking ideas from the original but not try to simply reproduce the track, which is what I've done on a number of tunes already. So hear I wanted to take the riff and do something else, though it's still identifiably based on Mechanical Man if you know the original/are into the games/this mod, (or listen to the last bit. ) Thanks for your thoughts!

Hello all. This is a track I made for the TS mod Twisted Insurrection, set in a post apocalyptic future and part of a soundtrack that features about 50+ tracks made by lots of different artists covering all sorts of hard electronic sounds I can't even name the genre of. So that's a little context. Anyway, I'd like to hear what you think and whether it's worthy of OCRemix at all!

Original: https://youtu.be/x1SUUkhKkXo Not drastically different to the original in composition, albeit a rather different flavour and 2 minutes shorter.

Kind of remake / remix of the original track: https://youtu.be/ifLhOMK6n7g

Thanks! I might go back to this sometime in the future and do it better. Way back I reformated and none of the VSTs were linked up in the project file and it would've taken a lot of work to get back on track. The long break is probably a good thing though. My latest C&C one was an update to an old AOI remix you might like: Currently doing a March to Doom mix as well, I'll see what happens with that.

If I had a hammond I'd knife it out of respect.

For fun I wanted to touch this tune and just try to basically maintain/recreate the atmosphere I always felt in this level, with this music, of mystery and... anxiousness really. It's no departure from anything you've heard before, but I think it's OK. I definitely like to hear non-metal remixes of Doom tracks, so this is my contribution. Anyway, tell me what you think, particularly to do with the mixing as that's mostly the practice I got from it.

Thanks for the feedback. I did actually read this before but didn't have the inclination to do anything at the time. I updated it though, with a much changed mix that tries to brighten up the whole thing, especially after Frank Klepacki did his own remix of Twisted Insurrection track that obviously sounds much better and more professional. The soundcloud track has been updated. I didn't hear any clipping though so nothing was changed there, although after this new mix it wouldn't apply in the same way anyway. I can't hear any now either. Here's Frank's version of Space Echoes: https://youtu.be/1UYh22j8JM4

Sounds pretty cool. I like the opening. Not sure what kind of synth you're using for those 'growls' and whether its just vibrato you control or not, but if so I think it'd be nice to hear it flatten out and join the orchestral notes. So during that opening segment, rather than just having it as some kind of rhythm it could smooth into the strings and fade out, like some distant, calling, and slightly disturbing, voice. Also for me, during the final verse, having those strings being cut off feels too much when there's already a synth doing the same thing. Maybe this is a genre staple that I just don't quite get, but I feel like there should be more a through line there... or perhaps removing some of the string notes to make it more simplified and kinda of just announce each beat would make it more dramatic, if that's the intended effect. Not that I really know what I'm talking about but hopefully it sounds convincing.

Can't give you much technical advice, but I really like it, or where it could go. I'm not a dubstep fan at all, but this combination of sounds is nice, quite relaxing. The only real complaint I have is the mixing, as you mentioned, because when the dubstep starts it sounds quite suppressed. Could do with being a little crisper. By the way, a nice reference point might be Frank Klepacki's Grey Goo soundtrack if you haven't heard it already. He mixed orchestral and electronic, including some dubstep style stuff, that sounds quite brilliant. Protect and Destroy Eliminate Bring the Hailstorm

A few years ago I realised I'd been listening to Deep Purple since I was in nappies when I relistened to Pac-Mans Park and realised it had "borrowed" from Purple's Space Truckin' track. This is a remix of the Pac-Mania song but the magic of YouTube yielded a vocal only track from Space Truckin', which I used during the shared segment. Original Pac-Man's Park. Deep Purple's Space Truckin'.

If anyone ever played the TS mod Twisted Insurrection, then this is actually an update to a crappier remix I did for that a couple of years ago. Don't know whether this version will get in the mod as that is up to the developers, but either way I had unfinished business and needed to improve it! Structurally it's not much different to the original, as the inspiration was to remake the song for the mod. Original track: https://youtu.be/n4AUY-v1nsE

Sounds really cool, except I wish the drums were a bit clearer and the guitar notes didn't just drop off as that makes it sound more midi based than maybe it ought to. I guess this is a straight remake of the original, but I can hear a lot of potential to go anywhere with it. Like a really nice dirty keyboard solo or something. Sounds like a basis for a lot of mucking around really.

Thanks for the reply! Didn't see it until now. Don't hear the Easy Lover connection but I'm ok with it! I don't mind some Phil Collins, and I'm a pretty big Genesis fan. As for the period sound- I wanted to embrace the 90s quality of the original, just because it would be some kind of defence to it sucking honestly. The actual instruments are VST recreations of a Pro One, some Juno model, a Mellotron, and a Hammond, so really none of it is meant to sound very modern. If I go back to it in future I'd really need to widen the sound somehow and fill it up a bit, because it does feel a bit empty. Possibly I could take it in a more industrial, lo-fi direction, with pots and pans clanging around... that'd reflect KKND I think.

Hello, first time posting something original here but I'm quite happy with this one, though the military drums at the beginning still sound kinda shit. It's an 80s new retro wave inspired generally upbeat track with voice samples from Harry S Truman, George Bush, Lawrence Krauss, Jeanine Pirro and of course Donald Trump, to bring in a very happy new year to civilization. https://soundcloud.com/fraser-jennison/ad2016

Doesn't feel too fast to me at all. "I'm just a new boy, stranger in this town" line is too iconic though IMO. Whenever I hear those lines my head plays Young Lust instead and it gets confusing. It might be cool to reference the lyric by having your song character obviously quote it as a chatup line instead, in one of the verses. Then I think I could let it slide. Otherwise it just sounds really good to me, definitely something fresh from what I usually hear. Piano could be a bit more prominant in the solo. Maybe posting up the lyrics would help too since it's not all discernable with the current recording.

This is a remix of 'survivor theme 1' from the 1997 RTS Krush, Kill n' Destroy. It's kind of a first pass and I'm always too eager to share things, but so far liking it. Not exactly sure where else to take it as it was just a spur of the moment fun thing to do. So tell me what you think. I think it might need a little spacing, but I need some fresh ears. I'd also like to stick in some better cymbals and find a better fake sounding guitar that isn't an FL Studio preset. I actually have never played the original game, but people seem to have fond memories. Might check it out soon.
