Groovy little piece. Wonderful ska-esque guitar sound and the organ solo really rocks.
But...while shortness in and of itelf isn't bad, this particular piece feels very undeveloped. Developing the rhythms and melodies of this mix might have produced a much more satisfying sound, as is, it just feels a tad incomplete. |

That picked bass is a little too heavy for my likings ... Sounds a bit like FL's BooBass preset with too much treble. Having said that, it's a fairly solid mix. The percussive part has been put together well, gotta love that snare. The guitar is out of tune, though. I can understand that guitars go out of tune every now and then, but if that's artistically out of tune, never do it again. Not saying the guy's knocked it out of tune on purpose, but I have heard suggestions from people in Remixing 101 to do this to make it sound "live" (it doesn't make it sound any better/cooler, it makes it sound terribly amateurish). On my 4th listen or so, I've noticed the percussive part really shines in this tune, and that organ is a wonderful touch.
For a first mix, this is good stuff. Well done, Shadow. |

I have to agree with Israfel on this one. While the mix itself is very nice, this sounds more like a WIP than a posted mix.
With that said, it IS a posted mix, and a very nice one at that. I do feel like the guitar part is a bit too loud because of how repetetive it is. (Repeating is not bad: see Dreamer =P) Nice work!

Aww man. As soon as I start gettin into this it's over. Oh well, what's there sounds fantastic. The bass doesn't seem to fit, but the fact that a guiro makes an apearance makes up for it. Organ solo is the best part. It seems like at some points there could have been more you know? Call me crazy, but someitmes it just feels... empty. I think you did a good job with the guitar and trying to make it sound like a surf song (typical surf whammy bar-ism at :43). Good job overrall.

I don't agree with anyone saying this sounds like a Work in Progress.
I've been listening to this for months now ( :roll: ) and I think it's just as great as the first time I heard it. The only thing I would have done would be add a whammy bar and a solo. This is really faithful to the original, and I think it's a great little ReMix. No real need for critisism - I think Shadow knows what he's doing.

Most excellent. I can't help but love this track; the peppy-as-hell guitar wins me over every time. All we need now is to see an official release of Funky Bookas :P

This is exactly what the Bus theme in Earthbound would have sounded like on a system with a better soundchip. The title is perfect too....this is everything I need to feel satisfied that the Bus theme from Earthbound has been given its proper respect and treatment.
The bus theme itself was short, didn't develop overmuch, and just packed awesomeness in a little box, like this mix does. Fantastic! |

EXCELLENT!!!!
The shortness is fine with me. Many of my favorite songs are short (as in under 2:30). The bass could be better, but everything else is top-notch. Instant classic.
