Default OCR00874 - Raiden 'Gallantry (Nobility of Spirit Mix)'

Raiden 'Gallantry (Nobility of Spirit Mix)'

Okay - I really, really liked the first part of this mix. I was hoping a style like this would have built up deeper in the same style. Instead, it goes into a techno arrangement starting at about 0:30. Though, it's actually worth it considering how well done it is. Rayza never fails impress me and compose great ReMixes. This one is definitely no exception. Not much else to say other than that I enjoyed listening to it, and it's well done (I couldn't write anything in this style better myself). All I can say is: It's about time we get a Raiden ReMix. The wait was worth it :)

This is a very good mix. I'm not familiar with the original tunes, but this stands by itself very well. Great drum programming that's kept interesting with effects and changes like at 2:20 is consistent throughout. This is good trance/techno stuff that keeps itself from being terribly predictable. The synth used for the lead melody is great and fits right in. Great stuff from Ryza.

Finally! A good Raiden mix! I was considering making a mix of this particular tune myself, but never got around to it. Rayza does some great things with this mix; the orchestral in the beginning is fairly true to the tune, but the techno expands on it with new melodies and things, all of which are good (a few of them fairly standard techno, though.) Lots of cool synths, good drums, and a nice balance between staying true to the original and improvising. I especially love the drum solo at 2:24. The only gripe I have with it is that it's fairly predictable as far as techno goes. As djp would say, reccomended.

Wow, i've never heard of this game, by listening to this remix makes me wanna play it. It's pretty sweet near 3mins when the solo comes in. Then it's kick-ass til the end. Great stuff.

I said it before, I really really like this mix. Raiden's been in need of mixage for some time, and I highly enjoyed this one. I especially like the sound of your lead synth, which also kept reminding me of Golden Axe for some reason. As I'm now listening with headphones and taking in more of what's going on in the backround of the music, it only gets better. Awesome mix!

You know what's an awesome experience? Booting up MAME, turning on this mix, setting it to loop, and starting up Raiden. Then, hit "~" and turn the volume down to the point where you can only hear the effects, and not the music. Insert Coin, and enjoy. What a fucking great experience.

I always swore that if I ever became a remixer, this would be the first track I'd cover. Now, I can put that off a little longer.

DOWNLOAD IT.

Wow...

This takes a page out of the Book of Juno Reactor. It seems to have a strong psytrance feel to it, but it's also kind of just flat-out techno. I dunno... anyway, I like this. The bassline really got me anticipating what was coming up, and with good reason. All of the cool gliding synth lines are lots of fun, and the main lead is just so massive and appropriate for this song. It's mixed quite well, with nothing too overpowering, and nothing being drowned out. And holy crap, the big melody step-up at 4:03 caught me totally off guard, and all I could do was raise my eyebrows and rewind to hear it again.

Cool. Rayza's one of my new favorites.

1) Gallantry in Raiden Trad is one of my favorite videogame tracks.
2) The Original and Remix in Raiden Project takes this even further.
3) This track surpasses them exponentially. You're forced to mute the TV and play this superior version instead.

Chalk up another for Rayza!

This game is one of my all time favorites and this track was always memorable, and hearing this arrangement it's so much better.

You should download this even if you don't know what Raiden is.
