Default OCR00499 - Little Nemo 'Nemo for Strings'

Little Nemo 'Nemo for Strings'

Superb drum less tune here by Gux. It’s certainly got enough strings to make up for the lack of drums, that much is undeniable. But it’s also brilliantly executed. Absolutely wonderful work, Gux, keep this coming.

Ditto...I'd like to hear the same song with effects and such, but if my instinct serves me right I think I'd still like this version better. Delicious, no doubt.

One of the better mixes involving strings. Instead of making some echoey epic techno combo or such which many people do, Gux just went straight ahead and did a string quartet with absolutely nothing else. It takes some balls to do that. And I must say he pulled it off very very well...

Gux really is one of the better and riskier remixers on this site, imo...

I love this; it's like I'm at a folk festival and there's a quartet there playing my favorite songs of childhood. Effects are for pussies.

I love this remix. The string sound is beautiful and convincing, and he definitely gave it a unique spin. The sample used blows my mind. This is a very haunting song. I can tell he is very talented from listening to the subtle changes made to the chords and progression.

Pretty solid, if you ask me. SOMEONE needs to put some good reverb on this and resubmit it. It would be much better then.

This sucks.

No, actually, I was just trying to shake things up a bit, but it's hard to imagine a bad review for this.

First, as mentioned before, the samples are quite fabulous. I am another fan of the effects-free recording; it sounds as if I'm sitting two yards away from a real string ensemble. Props for that. Second, good arrangement. It stands completely on its own as a strings piece.

Here's some badmouthing for sake of the earlier lack thereof: this is kind of hard to listen to. It's not something I put on when I'm ready for action, nor is it really soothing or demure. It's kind of harsh on my ears.

Okay, that's about all I can say against it. Nice concise ending, too. I like this song.

Reminds me of the better parts of my childhood.

Wow. My initial impression was unimpressed. But as I listened, I suddenly had a very strong hit of nastalgia. Props to the composer! Makes me want to find this game again. Oddly, I think the music also reminded me of the Spirited Away for a moment too.

Love this.

I love this track.

When it kicks in at :52 seconds, that's what really gets me in the pit of my gut. I love the music here!

Like others have mentioned, though, I would like to hear some reverb on this and some better mixing. It's just so in your face with no reverb.

However, that's not going to stop me from immensley enjoying the piece.

Fans of strings should definitely check this out. One of the more realistic string pieces on the site - and that is certain.
