I reallllllly enjoyed this track because of its extremely well placed strings.

This is simply amazing. One of the best Overclocked Remixes in a very long time. I never imagined this track could have so much potential, but Malcos has rearranged this song so well....wow. I mean, wow, I can't even put into words how much I love this remix. This is easily one of my top 5 favorite remixes on this site.

Really, the song is sort of simple, with not a whole lot going on...but something about it just really catches me as spectacular. The way the pizzicato strings seem to blend in so well with everything else...I dunno, it's just a great song! Nice Work!

Only bad part is the ending...fade outs aren't so great =/ But it's not that big of a deal, the song is just really catchy and awesome. And the fact that this awesome piece of music was based off of, while cool, very repititous source material.

Very professional sounding piece. Strings and percussion are right on, particularly the pizzicato strings that drive the song along. Though the fade out was kind of anti-climatic. I suppose the idea behind that was to keep the piece, which ehibits nothing particularly explosive (which isn't a bad thing with this type of song), from becoming unbalanced.

Good stuff. Good stuff.

Yep, it gets a super special extra good stuff.

Well Put! My words exactly

Heheh. This makes a pretty good demo of Reason's Orkester soundbank :). Love the stings. Beat is pretty tight. Nice snare smack. Drums definitely could use some changing up once in a while. Those tappy hit hats or whatever keep going through the WHOLE song. Nice stuff tho. Dig it.

very well done. i really enjoy it. it's kinda funny cuz it reminds me of back dat azz up by juvenile.

I wouldn't say its a top10er or anything. but its pretty decent. The strings sound so real, i wonder where those samples came from.

I had a problem with the horns around 2:05. didn't fit right in my ear.

It doesn't remind me of the sonic song really, but it stands on its own.

[Malcos]

Thanks for the feedback guys!

I'd been wanting to do this track for a while, so finally got round to it. For me the Final bosses on the Sonic games always makes me really focus and get serious, which for me is defnitely something.

I used quick sharp strings to convey that seriousness, while the drums symbolised the steady thought, which is why they didn't change much. I kept the texture on the thin side, because as you're facing the boss, you are focused - you have one goal. You know this is the end, and all you have to do now is beat him and then you're finished.

All the string sounds were from the Orkester soundbank that comes with Reason 2.5.

Don't forget to check out my site, I have a couple more mixes on there.

First song I've heard in a while that really combines the strings and synth beats well. Nice!
