Made a new thread so I could add the prefix thing. I followed the critiques from the last one and can't really think of anything to improve on but there are probably still some issues that i cant personally spot.

mod-review [FFIX Crystal World] Weeping Shards
Kenogu Labz posted a topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
EDIT: See my top post on page 2 for a major update! I need someone who can play acoustic guitar to replace the Wild Arms lead. [(Not) Final WIP] - See top of page 3 for most recent! [Listen Here (V3)] [Listen Here (V2)] This is a WIP that's been 'in progress' for a looong time, and I finally just sat down and cranked the second half out. There are some known quality issues, which is why it likely won't make it on OCR, since I'm using a tracker with medium-quality samples and poor effects plugins. But I'd at least like some feedback on arrangement and direction. Any thoughts? -
mod-review Earthbound - Lost Underworld (Electr-oh! Remix)
Doni posted a topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Hey all, I've cooked up a little remix that I believe fans of Earthbound and fans of music will like. The source track is "Lost Underworld" from the aforementioned Earthbound (as known in America) or Mother 2 (as known in Japan). The game itself was essential for me this was one of my favorite tracks. Perhaps hard-core's will find this to be an odd choice considering the amount of great material from Earthbound, but somehow this one just worked out well with my style. The source is based on organic instrumentation and arrangement, while the remix coats everything in a thick layer of acid (the illegal to distribute and ingest kind). Anyways, just have a listen, and please give me your feedback. This version is about 99% complete, but if somebody has something to add that I feel is worth addressing, I will consider that. Thanks all! The Remix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Vb385OSemY The Source: -

EDIT: Thanks gintokipianist for playing this! Comments please? Source: And a little bit of the SNES version Here's a solo piano remix of Jungle Jitters from the GBA version of DKC3. I've honestly no idea what genre it should fall under -- I'd like to think it's somewhere between jazz and baroque [EDIT: okay it's definitely not baroque haha] (which is a pretty wide range actually), except that I've hardly listened or written either jazz or baroque, so I'm hardly a very good judge. Comments on the arrangement so far please Like whether it seems too far from the source, or if it just sounds plain bad or schizophrenic at parts? Sound is just fed through the Tascam CV piano, although it's hardly continuous velocity because they're all set to 100, so I know it sounds mechanical because well, it is. [EDIT: Well since it's played live now, the sound should be pretty much better haha] Yeap thanks -
mod-review FF13 Blinded by Light (Battle Theme) Remix!
evory posted a topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
<--- Remix! Also --> If you for some reason want youtube's stellar sound Source --> This remix is entitled Shadow Puppetry for the Blind, which was ripped off from an old short story I wrote involving light, darkness, a magical grand piano, and as many biblical allusions that Google could find me. Nevertheless, I insist this remix is like shadow puppetry for the blind, because (1) it sorely lacks any sense of direction and clarity, and (2) it's utterly pointless. The source should be pretty clear throughout, it starts with a slightly mutated version if the bassline, moves into a slightly more mutated version of the source, and finally into a disfigured, degenerate and defenestrated hack of an excuse for the source. Oh and Those Who Fight is thrown in somewhere because it fit the rhythm almost perfectly, and saved me the trouble of thinking of my own buildup. Oh and I feel pleased to no end with myself for sneaking in a quote from a chinese orchestral piece (飞天, translated as Flying Asparas, and if you read that as asparagus you're not alone, and if you have no idea what an asparas is, you're not alone either). Which is pretty much the only part of the remix which made me feel clever. But that doesn't really matter very much, as does anything else I've said. Assuming anyone's even bothered to read past the words 'crunchy potato feather' up there. You scrolled up didn't you But yeah, ramble's done, comments please! -
I finally decided to give a really old remix another try. I think this was my second of third mix I ever made. Back when I was still learning how to work with FL Studio, I actually thought my mix was good enough to make it past the judges. Boy, was I wrong... This is a remix of "Alone a.k.a. Bio Lab" theme from the SaGa Frontier soundtrack.

Remix Pretty much done, just posting it here for some final feedback. Edit: Update with live saxophone. Edit2: Final Version(possibly?) Edit3: Submitted -
Hey all, My first true Dubstep track here. I love the music from Zelda 2 and I think I've got something worth listening to here. Feedback appreciated! I should say that I ventured off the Dubstep track for parts of this song, so I'm not interested in any genre nerds telling me this isn't true dubstep...

Hello everyone My name is Josh, and I work in I.T. In my spare time I enjoy learning about music production, and spend most of it jamming on drums, working on electro house, or remixing my favourite video game themes. I have been meaning to check out OCRemix for some time now (a few people on my youtube channel have suggested I come visit). I've decided to take the plunge and submit a song for critique! This is a re-arrangement of one of my favourite boss themes of all time, 'Bad Boss Boogie' from Donkey Kong Land on the Gameboy. It starts in a very melodic and relaxed manner and rocks out hard and fast at the end. I hope you enjoy it! Please let me know if you have any questions, and please provide feedback (I am VERY new to this!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv09uU4bdMg Edit: Here is the original: Cheers Josh

Hi, I actually had sent this simple acoustic ReMix to OCR submissions back on September 7. Given the long queue in the inbox, I thought I would start up a thread here for some feedback. If there's anything to be fixed, I could probably fix it before it's even downloaded for review. Didn't really work on practicing this song too long, maybe a week. This recording came out pretty nice on the first attempt, so I added some reverb and did some minor EQ and gate adjustments. Sadly, the pickup in my acoustic is busted right now, so I wound up just recording one mic'ed up track. My original intention was to record two tracks to make the sound a little more full. I was happy with how it turned out, anyway, so I figured I would just submit it.

This is Electronic-Rock remix on Mercury stage from Doom Troopers (megadrive) I like this thing, but something unfinished in it and maybe something is wrong. Tell me what do you think. Any critic or something.. Thanks! http://fairtilizer.com/track/122017 -
Hello OCR. This is my first time doing a serious remix of a track, and it's been a long time coming--I've wanted to do a mix for ages. Well, I've worked on it quite a while before getting the login details for this old account of mine worked out, so, right now, it's basically "finished" though I am open to other ideas for improving the thing. I've remixed the normal tune for "Palmtree Panic," the first level from Sonic the Hedgehog CD. (Some of the alternate mixes were an influence on the mix, too) Oh, and this is the JP/EU soundtrack, not the American one. Without further adieu: http://soundcloud.com/jonodude/dont-panic Source tune(s), on the following page, for those who want it: http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_CD_OST_(Japan_%26_PAL_regions) Basically what I think I've got going on here is a sort of retro-sounding, fun dance tune, while being sort of spacey sounding. I used the piano progression present in the source(s), which I love, as my foundation and built from there. Overall, I'm rather pleased, but I'm looking for further suggestions, or just confirmation on the quality (good or bad). If you decide to listen, thanks for taking the time!

mod-review Avian Holiday - Ristar - "Du-di-da"
UmJammerSully posted a topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
This is less of a serious post and more of a plea for help. This is my very first remix, so basically there's about 100 things sucky about it that can be pointed out within the first 10 seconds, but I have to start somewhere, right? I was about to just give up with this entirely but I thought it wouldn't hurt to post what I have here and see if far more talented people than me can give some strong suggestions on improving it, and hopefully get the ball rolling again for me. I'll take advice on absolutely anything as there's definitely a lot to complain about. Oh, and don't be afraid to really dig into me. I need hard criticism to have any chance of getting better. ;P Here's the source: With small elements of: And here's the remix: V1: V2: I'm relatively happy with the first 30 seconds surprisingly. The first transition is where the real suckiness comes in and it's pretty bad from there on. All the transitions are pretty bad and too abrupt. There's really isn't much going on throughout 0:36 - 1:45 because I can't find a good instrument to fit with the steel drums. Whilst I kinda like the sections starting at 1:45, I think it gets real cluttered and probably goes on for too long too. EDIT: Just noticed the mod review option so I thought I'd give that a go as I didn't get any criticism before, which I desperately need if I hope to get any better. Made a a fair amount of edits too and added version 2 which actually cuts out a lot of crap more so than adding anything. -
Finished! I think.. One way or another that's it: Source:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfFUfeQODx8

mod-review Fire Emblem- The Fire Within (In Flames)
No Escape posted a topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
This is that sick theme that appears in Smash Bros8-)... The mix itself is like all my other ones (Heavy Rock!), but has a LOT more piano than I normally use. This is still in the works...I feel comfortable with the production, but I definitely want to change a few parts to my liking. Any feedback is fine. *EDIT* I have changed all the links in this this thread to be the final version. Original (As if anyone doesn't know it) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BsPSOQA6tY&feature=related -
http://tindeck.com/listen/ccld It is a remix of Wood Man's stage from the Game Boy version of Mega Man 2. Feel free to be as cruel and relentless as possible in your critique. Seriously! I need something wrong with my song to work on. EDIT: I just put up a different version because the cymbals were obnoxiously loud on the other. -
First post, first remix, first everything. Original: Rudora no Hihou (Secret Treasure of the Rudras) is a pretty unknown RPG by Squaresoft for the SNES which hasn't been released outside Japan. Interestingly its composer is the same as the one for Mystic Quest Legend/Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. The soundtrack is great (listen to The Spirit Chaser!), why aren't there any remixes up here yet? Anyway, this my first self made remix, though it's probably more of an arrangement than a remix. It's a pretty straightforward orchestration of the main screen's theme, probably way too close to the original to ever meet OCR's guidelines. But it's my first try at arranging, so I'd love feedback anyway (downloadable here, please use sparingly) ...I forgot the ID3 tag The volume is a bit low but that's intended to support the structure (yeah right ^^. I know the end is pretty rough but I actually like it the way it is. Am I overdoing it at the climax and making it too muddy? I don't have any speakers, so I'd like some feedback on the overall soundscape balance. I am also very unsure of the reverb settings. -
MOVED TO MOD REVIEW: This track is close, but not close enough. I need some extra critque so I can get it 'Just Right' before subbing. Song of Storms remix, done by me; I have some drum plugins but I'm still learning the drum apps and so If anyone would like to, it's a chance to make a wonderful mix, have a listen and let me know if you want to have a go at it. http://soundcloud.com/dbrown1986/wip-zelda-64-oot-rains-treasure-song-of-storms-ocremix-varient-2

mod-review Megaman 3 Intro (Drum and Bass Remix)

Hello! I want to show you all my new Remix of Megaman 3 Intro. I mixed it up with Drum and Bass, hope you like it! btw: I'm 19 and from Germany. It's on Youtube, link: Made it with Reason 4 and some Samples from Megaman games. Greetz Marc -
Hello, OCRemix Mod(s)! I'm DJSoto13 and this is my first attempt at remixing a song. What I've prepared is an ethereal-themed take on Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time's "Windmill Hut" (a.k.a. the Song of Storms). The reason I call it a dream is because that's what it reminded me of - the panning audio, the spacey piano, the toybox-like instrument - and although it does contrast with the other part of the song - the drums and the guitars - it still seems like spending a night dreaming in the Kakariko windmill. But I ramble. Hopefully I get some helpful advice from you, and happy listening! P.S. - can you help me with mastering? I feel a little uneasy about the whole thing (it might be evident in the song), but I'm trying to get a more professional, open, and warm sound. Thanks Source: Remix: http://tindeck.com/listen/xbxv

Hey OCR! Like the title says, I've been coming here for years and now I've got a decent bit of software (Garageband just wasn't cutting it any more...) I thought I'd try a remix of my own. After listening to Malevolent Mansion for months I've sort of had it seeping into my consciousness, and while this doesn't compare, I thought the source was ripe for a fast-paced drum & bass-style arrangement (although admittedly it's not my favourite genre). The game is "Dennis" for the Amiga - an old one, but the old ones are the best, right? Never got past level 2 but the music on level 1 was great - check it out here: UPDATE: After taking a break from this track for a few weeks I've come back to it and given it a complete trimming down, making it almost a minute shorter, less repetitive, and improving the dynamics, as suggested. It also has a title (exciting, I know), based on the name of the bundle my Amiga 1200 was in. Thanks for all the feedback! Edit: changed status to Finished to try and get some final comments before subbing/Mod Review. Finished version below: -
Update: Song's in Mod Review! I think the rhythm of the source song fits a tango beat quite well, so that's why I went Argentina this time. What do you think? Remix: http://ocrwip.fireslash.net/?fid=790 Source:

This is my 3rd favourite in the list. Good composition as well as suited the character's story and background. The original has made a deep set in my mind of the tune. While I'm having ever since the first release of Street Fighter 2, I wanted to do my own remix on this. However, dream came true. Now, I made this more a sentimental electronica, New Age? Ah well, I'm no so good in genres, have a listen to it and see if it blows your mind... (Caution: Heavy Bass) http://www.jamglue.com/tracks/16014771-Guile-Theme-Remix
