wow!

wee! I likey!!!

I love how the SMB theme was used so well as the underpinnings of the song. You could hear it the whole time. Juggle some sliders in a good sound program and try to blout out the trumpet. It's there the WHOLE time. I love it!!! Can't wait for Xmas

Gawrsh.

I'm just amazed at the way this ReMix manages to combine christmas music and Mario music. It's almost insane. I'm sure that if I'd never heard any Super Mario music before I would not notice that half the music in this ReMix came from a game.

What I loved the most was when the SMW music came on as a base beat and the Sleigh Ride (?) music, then Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, then Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire and another one I didn't know... Actually, I also loved the bits where christmas songs would be used as 'verses' of a kind, and Mario music would be used as a sort of chorus. Also... heck, I just loved the whole thing.

I could not think of a more innovative way to celebrate christmas. The sheer talent in this group and the incredible way this ReMix sounds are more than enough to thrust them into my watch-for-future-ReMixes list.

Update: I checked their website and it says they've done Axelay - City Lights. Does that mean they've done a cover of it? I loved that ReMix.

Hey there. Yeah, we do po!'s arrangement of Axelay, but with live instruments. It's really cool.

There won't be too many more arranements up here on this site, but we have an album coming out soon, and we have free tracks to download on our site, with more coming soon.

Thanks for your praise!

Although I thought that the jingle bells medley for an ending didn't flow as well as the rest of the piece, I otherwise thought that this piece was magnificent. Besides the brilliant melody integration of both seasonal and game themes,(which has already been mentioned, I believe,) :D I love the way the trumpet and sax alternate in leading the melody. Extremely musical, and incredibly enjoyable to listen to over and over and over and over and... you get the idea...

Great Job! :o

Hey guys. Great job as always. Recomended + 2. I have always loved your guys' stuff (with exception of *ahem*...one mishapp *coughTheLegendofZelda2002cough*)...... . Excelent stuff. Greatly intergraded. Lots of little things thrown in there to keep it interesting. Now, as a trumpet player, i noticed a problem. When you record trumpets right up to the mic, they sound very loud, blant, and open. This is not a problem with the mic! When you record farther away, the sound matures alot more, making it sound brighter, fuller, and not as 'bleh'. Great trumpet playing, but i wish you had recorded farther away. Beside recording issues (note, this ain't against you at all), Great playing! Great Piano stuffs, I have tried getting the Game Over theme down on piano, and thats hard to lay back on. Kudo's there. Great Bass, not much to complain about there. Perc. is very tight. Sax was very nicely recorded, though it could have had a little more vibrato in other areas. Excelent Job guys.

How can you go wrong? Classic Christmas Music+Classic SMW Music+Dale North+Mustin=best mp3 medley EVER. Then again, it occassionally seems slightly forced, but it never gets too bad at all. I love the song tho- it's originality, faced paced, and FUN. TRA. LA. LA! 7/8

I'm getting so attached to Dale's stuff as of late. This one piece made the most stupid grin appear on my face. How he blended the "Mario" theme in an out of "Sleigh Ride"... I couldn't have imagine this in a million years. This is a great tune and a surprise for christmas coming!! (though I'm extra late for this review) Man, this band is sweet!!

Wow, I was really impressed with this remix. It does such a great job mixing "Sleigh Ride" and the Super Mario World themes into one real smooth job. I mean, how many people could have successfully pulled of this remix? Heh, great christmas tune, guys. Just listening to it put a dumb grin on my face. Perhaps it was just the absurd combination. Anyways. Two thumbs up, definately recommended. Sweeeeeet!
