I couldn't agree more. I can't complain musically, it's a great remix, especially from about 2:40 on. The synch problems didn't really bother me much--I actually liked the looseness to it. But for Pete's sake guys, turn the guitar volume up a notch or two. An electric guitar should never be overpowered by a piano. I think that's a sign of the apocalypse or something.

I had a broken soundcard when I was mixing the two parts together, my skills weren't as good as they are now, and I had no idea what compression meant. I hope to resubmit this song later with a better transition, better keyboard, better drums, and yes, better equalized guitars. I wouldn't call this my best work, but I plan to "re-do" this song in reason or a better program than what I used.

what I used??

midisoft!!! OH MAN MIDISOFT IS SEXY, that and my creative sound card sound font fun =D. Then I just recorded it analogly into acid 3.0.

Same with ryan, from what I hear, he's gotten much much better since. I hope we can either re-do this song, or coop in another song later on.

edit: note that I submitted this months before I submitted my luigi's mansion mix, if you want to hear the progress

aaaaaaargh

Orororo, how come i wasn't informed you guys were doing this song? =( I thought we were a team =/ You know me i love basically everything i hear, with a few exceptions. To semi-quote one of the worst singers of our (my) generation "DJ Carbunk1e, the synth man, if he can't do it, then nobody can". The guitars are wonderful as many people said, but I don't agree with people who say they should be louder, they are just fine the way they are. The intro reminded me very vaguely of Dragon Warrior for some reason, and when the guitar starts, I think the drums should have been louder, but besides that it's really a very great remix. Now I have to go download the original =)

You can check out more DJ Carbunk1e at the Anime Remix site, if you didn't already know.

Okay Guys.. lets start :P I Do like what you were striving to do, and they're are a lot of parts that shine during this mix, but i think there are a lot of Flaws aswell. Volume and Panning seems the biggest issue to me, but other then that minor complain't, I DO think its worth the listen. Especially if your a fan of the original.

0:01 - hm..Im not sure about the quality right here at the beginning.. but .. it seems nice.. the incoming Strings REALLY help this out.. sounds a lot better.

0:29 - HELLO! pretty big switch here.. The Guitar work is Fabulicious.

1:06 - Needs more. The Backings work okay.. but the Guitar needs more Support i think, the drumbeat sounds pretty cool, but a bit soft in comparisin with the rest.

2:10 - That guitar lead is getting a bit boring by this point, even with all the backround.

2:40 - What are you building up too?

2:51 - Hm.. not sure if i like that..Im not a fan of the Drumbeat for this point..but .. after everything Comes in..it sounds much better.

3:23 -whoa.. Guitar is a bit.. Loud, and drowns out a lot of other stuff, i can tell you wanted it to take center stage, but.. tone it down a bit..

4:12 - I love the backround at this point, What i dont like is how the guitar is panned directly infront of everything, it pulls your attention to it, while that can be a good thing, i DONT like it here.. They don't balance with each other, and they Could balance. needs a bit more volume and panning work, i think.

People may not know, but this mix was finished in the summer. Before I even finished Ironsword which was right around then. It wasn't submitted until later because of miscommunication who was submitting it. And by the time it was accepted, both Carbunk1e and I had grown as artists and producers of music. We realize many things now that could've been changed. If it had been released around when we finished it, you would've better seen the progress of our work. We could probably fix it, but might make better use of our time by bringing something new as part of our collaboration.

I'll tell you what. Ryan is my favorite remixer here and I'll listen to anything he does with a guitar. I only wish there was more of it.

This was a tight song. Despite what people say about the guitar i thought it was fine right were it was. Drums did need a little more though. But damn that song was awsome.

Also love you Wizards & Warriors 2: Iron Foundry song. I'm a huge fan of the series and have searched around for songs from the game, but I have yet to hear a remix as good as that one.

Good Work!
