GREAT! I love how the drums switch up, it keeps the song from getting too boring or repetitive.

Wow, this is some really slick stuff. Probably one of the best electronica mixes I've heard in a while, and I'm not familiar with the source material. The change ups are really slick, especially the flawless change in meter and the change into hardcore. And yes, the beat is really hot. Nice work.

I remember back when this WIP was posted in 2004 on the Newgrounds.com Music Forums, and I've been listening to it since then. It's nice you picked this one back up and got it into OCR

Worthy of the rave reviews. A very nice little track, renews my faith in OCR's exclusivity in general... politics, dramarama, and judgehate aside, tracks like this make it all worth the effort.

Will cross-reference with source.

9.5/10... might still up that.

Haven't even listened to this yet but I already know I'm going to like it.

I'll be back when the download finishes.

EDIT: Listened twice for good measure and yes I do think paragonx9 is entering my list of favorite remixers.

Default Impressive !

This is an excelent piece of remix if i've ever heard one. So good in fact, im playing Super Double Dragon as I type this. Any remix that makes me go back to the roots, is a good one indeed.

Congratulations, Paragonx9 !

::listens:: expect an edit in a sec.



But yeah that intro beats my ass... (in a good way)

Edit1: wow... This is one of the only OCR's in the last 10 or so posts that i've liked.

Edit2: OMG. This is a work of art.

Edit3:

ENDING!? WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
KEEEEEEEEP GOOOOOOOOOOOOOING.

Man i was sad when thast crap stopped.

Okay, so yeah. Awesome awesome attention to everything that is just good musicality.
The rhythm destroys all manner of worlds.
The Basses are appropriate at asll times. The tone and voicing is flawless to near perfect all the time. There are lots of creative risks taken that work really well.

The remixer takes advantage of the good points of his rather less than steller strings, and as a result makes them sound amazing.
Overall there is some excellent sequencing going on at all times. How much of the rhythm was actually sequenced, or simply sampled I cannot know but it sounds great regardless of the methods employed. Im not one to typically enjoy stuff with such bell-like leads, but this is for whatever reason wholly the best choice I could fathom hearing. I love when this piece starts to Growl, I love everything about this one... really

EXCEPT! the ending. this piece needs to be about 10 minutes longer and just keep making me want to make bad decisions in the dark with multiple women.
