Synth and Drums seem to work well. Aslo the transition between the two songs seem to go well, not a chunky job from the other songs I see. Overall a good song which I can enjoy.

Ooh, now THIS is a good flashman. I've heard a lot of megaman mixes, as I'm sure many of you have, and to be honest, I don't like a lot of the flashman mixes I've heard. This is an exception. It's good stuff. I approve. The horrifying distortion guitar somehow works as well, which is certainly interesting because there's not many places such an instrument CAN work. I mean, usually you get that sound when you want to creep people out, but not here. Here, it's just good.

Bubbleman also gets some love. We've already got two worthwhile bubbleman mixes on the site, each good for different reasons, and now a third can be added to that list, with its own little charm. Fascinating.

Good stuff, I like I like I like.

Average for me. Good quality. However, I did not appreciate very much. In my opinion the music is too monotonous and redundant and/or uneventful for my tastes to just listen to straight up--at least that's my opinion. I think another point, the song is so good, it's so...okay.

Not bad. Average is a good word.

Something about this mix seemed a little too sparse . . . like I was only listening to half of the instruments. This can be a good thing sometimes, if done right, but this just didn't feel quite finished to me.

Something about the way it kept building up and then slowing back down bothered me a bit too . . . it would have been alright to do it once, but the whole song is up and down and up and down. Maybe I'm a slave to my formulas. I dunno.

For some positive . . . from 0:27 to 0:40 was great. Really. :)

This pleases me. If i were a god, this would be a sufficient sacrifice for well over a month's time.

Excellent work.

I totally agree, for anyone who ever wanted to learn the true meaning of the word average, please listen to this mix. It is the EPITOME of average, the middle of the bell curve, the median meets the mode, the 5'9" white american joe, the most inconspicuous tree in a forest full of look-alike trees, a 75% on a curved chemistry exam...need I go on?

Color me close-minded, but the song seems to leave the melody at home and bring an overabundance of accompaniment. From a minimalist point of view, this would work, but there's too much going on in the melody of Flashman and Bubbleman to really leave anything out.

Not a bad mix, and it's obvious that some effort went into it, but this isn't something I can get behind. It's not fun to listen to, you find yourself searching through all the drums and distortion to hear a few bars of music and then back to overwhelming harmony.

I think I'll stick with SymphonicChronicle's "It's About Time" for Flashman. Bubbleman I'm not too keen on, though I throw SoapAndWater on my playlist once and awhile.

I dont get the average reviews, this is some sweet stuff. Probably the best Flash man treatment I have seen, and while I wasnt too fond of Bubble Man's music in the game, every Remix of Bubblemans theme i have heard is pretty good, (my fave being Disco Dans wantstogetfunkedup) Great job Quinnfox
