Default OCR00539 - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 'This Valley Rocks'

Zelda 64: Ocarina of Time 'ThisValleyRocks'

Intro makes this song sound like it's gonna be a dissapointment, but if you're at all into DnB or Jungle this song does not dissapoint. If nothing Else, DJ Pheonix shows us drum work done right - very intricate, and not at all repetative. The other instruments are nothing special, though nothing horrible, but if you've got any appreciation for DnB at all then download this and listen to what DJ Pheonix can do.

9/10
genre: Drum and Bass (jungle)

This is an excellent drum and bass remix, I think that any DnB lovers should definately love this piece, It's on my most listened to CDs. I give it a 9/10, just because it starts sounding repetitive after a while, other than that it's a great remix!!

The intro is UGLY. If you can survive past that then you will be pleasantly surprised.

You can't say anything respectable, can you? Its just insult after insult, a complement, insult and insult. Respectless.

Nice percussion - it IS automated though, but smoothly enough that I only noticed it restarting the loop three times throughout the song. The bass is effective, but also automated. However for both the bass and percussion there are a few breaks throughout the song, each lasting a measure, in which the rythmn switches to something new briefly - then it's back to the same.

Seriously needs some sort of smooth pad, instead of relying on the complex and continuous drum patterns to cover it - hrm, I'm listening to hear whether there is a pad and I just didn't notice it. Nope, the only thing resembling a pad sounds to be resonances from the weird, spacey sound that acts out the melody. Which by the way is extremely repetitive considering that it's volume and piercing quality makes it quite prominent. I'd recommend something smoother for that. For a pad, a quiet ensemble of strings (cellos maybe, or a mix of course) would sound nice, even as the only non-electronica.

The current choice of instruments (that high pitched thing, lack of padding) forces you to pay attention. If it were a bit less arresting, then you could just play it as background and the repitition would not be an issue.

D&B rules! When done right anyway. I like the percussion, and the bass, but that main synth gets a little bit annoying later on... With some more variety in the lead melody, this could be a perfect mix.

That HAS to be fruityloops or FL Studio. Why? The guitar sound.

I would recognize that anywhere, but I may be wrong.

I also recognize alot of the drums. You never know.

Acid? DnB?

Whatever you want to call it, if you like it fast and hard this isn't a bad track to check out.

The synths leave something to be desired but the good old amen snare will never get old. It's like the staple of beats aggresive. IMO, this track becomes substantial when the bass comes in.

Could've been better but it's not at all bad.

I got a good laugh when the song started. The straight up midi guitar is hilarious. add the ungrounded drums and synths that spasm without any sort of anchor and you have a mix that i'm just not a fan of. Sorry :(
