There is a monthly live remix competition, the Dwelling of Duels, that I entered in. This was my submission for the september contest. It covers the Ocean Palace theme. Thanks for listening.

Pretty solid guitar & vox opening. I mean, as much as I'd like to encourage you to branch out more from the RPGs and see what else gains your attentions, I can't argue with your source tune choices when the arrangements are good.

Unfortunately for this, I don't hear anything recognizeable from Undersea Palace until 2:06-3:02 & 3:47-4:36. Over half the mix is either original or REALLY liberal arrangement. Everything combines together well, but over half the mix has no real connection to the source. Too liberal, I'm afraid. If I'm missing some finer details, I'd be glad to change my vote.

Nice original.


Oh wait, about 4 minutes in I finally recognize something.

Larry said it best, when he said, "NO".

Fun stuff, but it's only a remix in the loosest sense of the word. Find a way to include more of the source tune and this would have decent shot at passing.

NO

cool stuff, but barely has anything to do with the original.
