A-RoN Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 It sounds like Charasmetic style worship music I hear on a Sunday morning in the piews (can't spell it). I enjoyed it. It's not my thing, but it's okay. Double A Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ax Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Yet again DJP creates 1337'ness in 0's and 1's. A wonderful acoustic remix of a great soundtrack. A must-download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 DJP, you never cease to amaze me. I don't think you've remixed a song that i don't like. Jack of all genres, master of them all, as well. Now if only you'd treat us to an interpretation of the Robo theme... That'd be sweeter than leet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryuko Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 Gonna counteract my original statement. A decent span of time after I originally commented, I queued this song up again. It's awesome. Anything I said negatively just through at how well this mix *works*. Good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deffster Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Well, when I downloaded this and listened to it I thought it wasn't good, but now that I started listening to it again, all I can say is.. ...WHAT was I smoking at the time? This is brilliant! I like the rhythm and the guitar and everything. It all just fits the song so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorgal Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 When i heard it for first time in the game it was just feeling that is a party in the town. i think that it is what composer wanted too tell us. Now when i heard remix i think that djpretzel thinked the same. its great "feel-good" song. ps. sorry for language im not good in eng.

Lord Veovis Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Nice. Very relaxing and laid-back. I love accoustic guitars. Everything is well put together to make one giant image of a relaxing remote Pacific island... thanks to this song it's going to be harder to wait for summer. 9.25/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanchou Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 nice, but i say the name should be changed to "Jethro and Imahori..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFireKai Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I love it... I hear the Jethro Tull influence. It could definitly be from the OST of Trigun. It would also fit just right in Xenogears, given the close relationship between the two games. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabble_Ship Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 This is the best Chrono Trigger remix I have heard. Thats saying a lot being that there are like 50 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Raven Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 DJP, you've most certainly done it again and serenaded us with on kick-ass remix. If that's you on the guitar, i'm impressed, if not, i'm still extrmely impessed. I like the new style, it makes it one of those remixes that stands out. Good job!

jordex Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I didn't like this one too much, it was good but it just didn't sound like djp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esden9 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 A fun remix, I enjoy it's sound. I wish every fair I went to was playing this tune...it just fits with the atmosphere of excitement and community, all the while evoking feelings and memories of fairs past. At around 2:00 the remix moves into that short late afternoon lunch/break feel, when you and mom and pop are chillin' at a picnic table chompin on hotdogs, corn and giant pickle... and then dives right back into the festivities.

DJ Magotrox Brazil Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 These guys don't know nothing about music. This is one of my favorites. It's fantastic. Good news! The guittar strings sounds very real. I guess it was made with a real acoustic guittar. If the intention was make the music sounds "real", you got it. Amazing! The arrangement (mainly the little beat on the guittar) is great. An OCR Grammy for sure.It's not a question of taste. There was criativity, feeling and sensibility on making the new arrangement. Sounds really beautiful. Bad News! I can't belive that some guys didn´t like this mix... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceDrake Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I've always been fond of this mix. No, it isn't his best (that honor belongs to Booster Tarantino in my opinion for so many reasons) but it jives. If you're looking for hardcore electronica, you'll probably be disappointed. This song just jives, though, and it's VERY faithful to the spirit of the original. Frankly, I think the artificial guitar helps the piece to flow a bit more. A real guitar would sound odd against all the precussion, I think. And it isn't too loud, the original was pretty reliant on background precussion too. This piece rocks the socks, Pretzel - I'd like to hear more like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordex Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Wow I can't believe I said I didn't like this song before, its gotten to be one of my favourite DJP songs now Its very festive, we have the music, all we need now are fireworks and dancers! Awesome guitar work and great percussion I can just see myself at some festival having tons of fun Great remix DJP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmancy Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 [disclaimer]Regardless of my not-even-close-to-perfect in most forms of artistic creation, I tend to be overly critical and analytical about all forms of art, merely because I personally prefer constructive criticism to compliment. If anything below sounds like an insult, apologies in advance.[/disclaimer] Pretty awesome. I always found the tune at the fair catchy in the game. Light, playful, and just perfectly fit both the atmosphere and time period the festival was taking place in. Any version of this appeals to me. More specifically to your remix, I really liked the way the sounds of the guitar and flute mixed together as they worked together, both in unison and in harmony. It's always pleasant when someone combines the sounds of two very different instruments into something that just works. The dynamic contrast was also great, especially around the large "break" before the last reprise of the theme. It was a nice shift when the percussion cut out, leaving a calm, less rhythmic, waltzy-type section. A lot of the little counterpoint stuff going on was quite intriguing as well--the accordian was especially noticable when the melody cut out for one phrase, which stayed in the background since it blended so well with the melody. The echo variation where you followed a flute riff with a nearly identical guitar riff was pretty clever, as well. The melody itself also appeared meticulously variated. Lovin' the rhythmic figures in that, especially the second part of it. More about the percussion though--and this is probably just attributed to the samples used, and sort of just a personal thing--somehow, the snare drum didn't quite work for me. I think it kind of felt a little more like a sailor's march--green was made bluer, Ireland to Scotland, and all that. Not a huge different, but somehow felt a little to hard to me. Perhaps a tap on the side of the snare with the stick as opposed to a snare-on hit? Not in all sections, though. At the end, right after the break, that snare was perfect. Maybe it's just the repeating nature of it. Also, in the soft, percussion-less section, somehow my mind was serching for a straight 3/4 waltz, as opposed to the 3/4--6/8 feel the rest of the song. It was almost there, save the little tinny cymbal. VERY nice, though. Sorry if I wasn't much help so much as a hindrance, since it's hard to be specific without audio in front.

Heyjohnny Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 great remix, very nice and calming. I love this song much more than the original, although I found that Blind's remake of it was 100% perfect. Give me a second....my vision is getting a little blurry from my tears.... ****cries and balls over the shut down of CTRP**** ok, where was I....Yes, great remix and I just love that flute you've got in their, and the gentle beat of that bongo or whatever that small hand beaten drum is. Good stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby Moon Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Jethro and Vash... the flute was too solid to sound like Jethro Tull, but it's still a greal ReMix. It sounds calming and clean, definitely a different ReMix. Most of the remixers, in the effort of being far from the original, produce a song with too much arrangements, too much noise... This is calm and simple. I really like it. But... it calls for a base guitar... XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Yo Dj Pretzel, what the $@%^ ? I've come to expect more from you, but for the last 3 or 4 remixes you've totally failed to deliver. This song was absolute crap, there was nothing original or entertaining about it. The remixing was decent quality but so what? You used to be so good, but now you're barely on par with most of the remixers on this site. This song pales in comparison to starblast's recent chrono trigger robo remix. Sorry but this is just worthless remix garbage. I tried to see it out of your direction, but it ain´t true. The original was good, but it was a whole lotta MIDIS and small synths that made funny and happy noises. That feeling is still here, that I can say he didn´t change, but he has changed all of those SNES-music-instruments into some real good acoustic guitars along with a flute that gives the feeling of carneval that has once returned to the good´ol west where it belongs and will belong. If this mix represents his house, then it had to be some sort of royal castle, because this remix was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Matt I Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I can't believe I haven't thrown in my two-cents worth on this song yet... If I have and I just missed it, whatever. This is freakin amazing. Maybe it's personal taste, but this song just rubs me in all the right ways. This ties Stray Donkey Strut for my favorite DJP mix. The guy is freakin incredible. I love the way the instruments mesh and how the individual parts play off of each other. It's all genius. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
