Revenge of Shinobi 'Chinatown (Bad Sushi)'
DJ Pretzel succeeds in merging his usual technofunk (if that's even the right way to describe it) style with a very oriental sound and flavor to produce one of his more interesting remixes. Eveything's spot on here, as it is with most of da DJ's work - I really can't find a single element to criticize. Recommended. |

The original is one of Yuzo Koshiro's best and also the best game tracks of all time. DJP did a great job adding to this, such as most the second half of the mix. I'm surprised no one else has reviewed this. I may be doing a more ethnic take of this mix in the future, I hope I can do something of this quality. Great production values in here as well. Excellent work DJP.

THIS TRACK NEEDS MORE REVIEWS I mean come on now.
It's really slick smooth, sounding unlike all of djp's other mixes. I can never remember how the song goes except for the first seconds of the song, but instead I just remember how soothing it sounds the rest of the way through, and then it never gets so old that I have to delete it, unlike all the PunchOut mixes on this site...

Ambient beats mixed with some very nice synths, this is a really nice track. The main motif sounds good, but what really makes this is the lead lines that are layered over it. The synths are super clean and have a very appealing sound to them.
One thing that I would have preferred would have been a more driving beat, especially in the kick. I think it would have lost a bit of the tranquil feeling it has now, but would have gained a lot more forward momentum. Regardless, this is still a good mix and seems to be a bit overlooked judging by the number of comments. |

How did I not hear this track?
Crunchy beats, lush pads and a pretty funky synth bass. The monoglide lead solo is kinda buried and some of the modulation is so-so but otherwise this track is a good listen.

The title of my post's kind of ambiguous, but that's only encompassing way I could think of to describe this track. It's so many things, at once- relaxing, but it drives you while it unwinds you.
I only wish it were longer. Hmm, it actually makes me feel like going across the bridge to Chinatown and eating something yummy on a summery evening after a thunderstorm or something ^^. |

Drumwork is solid, which really drives the piece. Melody is nice, which kept me interested.
Not sure if I'm sold on the synth choices, but I think it's more an age factor at this point. Nothings bad about them, but I would like to hear more realistic flutes, for example. I imagine it was pretty good for it's time, though, so I'm not really complaining. Nice work overall.

I enjoyed the percussion and the synths very much. The whole thing had a kind of retro feel to it, which I liked a lot. For some reason it reminded me of a Sonic soundtrack (Sonic 3 or CD maybe).
