Default OCR00371 - Kid Icarus 'Funky Dungeon'

Kid Icarus 'Funky Dungeon'

Wow, I can instantly say that I love the way this starts out. I love the eerie feeling represented here. The sample used for the lead kind of bothers me, sounds like it doesn’t belong with the rest of the tune, but it’s not bad. The tune changes to a more upbeat version (maybe this is an entirely different theme from the game?) around 2:15. And then there’s another change around 3:25, it goes back to the previous, slower style. Good mix. 3/5

Very mysterious, exciting intro to this song....then you hear the actual theme of the song, and realize immediately what it is! I love it, very nice beats going in this song....GREAT JOB! :)

Kid Icarus 'Funky Dungeon'

Hmm, I didnt think I was gonna like this mix at the begging, but a minutes or so into the track it got interesting. The tempo slowed down and speeded up which I though was cool. A very mysterious slow groove and a upeat tempo at times also. Could of been a bit shorter though, but otherwise a cool mix. Try it!

I have never played "Kid Icarus", nor have I heard its music in its original chippy splendor, something I intend to amend one of these days... At any rate, this is an OC ReMix that I've liked for quite some time now. I'm usually more of a tranquil-instrumental-type personality, but I'm always on the lookout for technoey-trancey-type stuff (I am a complete imbecile when it comes to categorizing music, so "technoey-trancey" is the best I can do) to groove to, and this most certainly qualifies. Although there are certain elements of repetition here, there is also plenty of variety, ultimately making this piece heavily listenable. And, even without having heard the original song in its in-game context, "Funky Dungeon" gives me a distinct impression of some vast, dark tomb -- must be the slightest "Egyptian" flavor I get out of it, particularly at the beginning. Excellent work, and having the distinct honor ::} of making one of my "Reichu's Trancey Digz" CDs (you know, for listening to in the car, and such). Me likes Mazedude.

Sort of a keyboard-oriented prog sound to this- really nice. Love the synth lead and bells- those bells in particularly add a great creepy atmosphere.

Mazedude is the best there is as far as I'm concerned

Man I love Mazedude, my mom even recognized this song! Mazedude just does a wicked job on these songs, in almost every one of his songs he'll change the tempo but it never gets old, it only raises my respect for him and his music! Keep it up Mazedude!

Ah, old-school Mazedude. This is a great one. The slap bass at the beginning is sick and I love it. I love the synth leads and the way it builds. Too bad they wouldn't put this in the new Smash for the Wii, 'cause it'd really be awesome for Pit. I barely remember playing the game at all, but with music this good, it really doesn't matter.

As usual, this has that juicy tracker-meat Mazedude-ness to it, so if you like the Dude, you should love this. Get his old "Japanese Swamp" mix, too, if you like this one.

Wow, this really impressed me. Not only does the track have a ton of personality, but there was also a lot of variation.
The bass and drums are fantastic, and the little touches like the harmonics and panning round this track out to be one of the coolest mixes i've heard in awhile.
Super recommended.

I could tell right away that this was going to be a good track. Definately a lot going on that really catches my attention. Kinda long, but never boring. Groovy, definately funky, worth getting.

Fantastically moody, groovy track. The sound is a bit muffled, but I don't mind. Good stuff!
