Pretty fresh and original. The second half was my favorite as I thought the first half was kinda lacking some flow and in my opinion, the volume cut effects were somewhat exorbitant. But the rest of the stuff in here is great. You messed with pretty much every element of the original a little bit and made it something very interesting to listen to. Keep up the good stuff!

I actually liked all the sound manipulation in this piece...as I rule I've never really cared for the kung fu "ah!" or whatever you want to call it...and that sometimes rubs me the wrong way in this piece...but what do I know? I'm just a consumer not a remixer...

Other than that, I'd have to say that I really like it, it has some really good energy! Good stuff!

Sounds a little too cluttered for my liking. Something about the bass bothers me, too. I guess I've got a sensitive ear, though. Timing seems illogical in places. There's some clashes with notes at the end, something I've noticed Sir Nuts does fairly frequently in many songs I've heard from him. The percussion and breaks keep it interesting, but overall, there's a tad too many issues within the song that bring it down. Alright overall, but it could have done with some patching up before the final submission.

It's 7:45 AM Eastern time and there're already 4 posts? Wow we have some serious insomniacs here. Anyways, I like how energetic this remix is. Sometimes though, the percussion which should be the base of the song goes off and gives the song a strangely disconnected feel. That only happens a few ties though, and overall this is pretty good.

First of all CONGRATS S|R NUTS! High energy remix going on in here. Samples not too bad, easy to notice its Fruity loops for some reason. Cauple of wrong(ish) notes. And yea, like the other guy said, repetitive without being repetitve....it made sens. Well, nothing else I can say but..its a very fun remix and it deserves to be on OC.

-Gman.

Ehh.... Aesthetically, I don't like those little "uh!"s that are infused in the song. I really like the take on the melody, but I think skull got it right when he said "too cluttered".

In the creative effort, the feel of the piece is lost.

Not a keeper, by any means. Sorry.

I always enjoy Nuts' stuff. It always sounds so tricked out. This is definately not a piece to have on in the background though; it requires the full attention of the listener. Very good stuff.

Ah yes...another IronMix on OCR, so considering this was done in a week, very hot stuff. Great job.

heh, thanks for the comments. I must admit that this is not my best work, but it's still good. And remember, this was done in a week for IMC #12. SO I worked on it only 5 or 6 hours. heh, but anyways, expect more mixes from me posted in ocr, and more ironmixes too!!
