Punch-Out!! 'Iron Mic Challenge'


It's not da' pipes this time, it's da mic. The iron mic that is. This funky
hip hop type ditty is a nice interpretation of the theme. If I weren't so
dangerously white i might bust a phat freestyle.

Word wigtacious. I love this theme, I leave it on the playlist for when I am in the mood for it, and when I am, I love it very much. Download.

While that raspy bass can get overwhelming at times and the beat seriously calls out for some vocals, this mix has some redeeming qualities that make it pretty hip and fun to listen to. The sampling of the bell gave the track a cool touch and the spelling tool samples (S...G...X...) were decently applied. Scratching worked well too. The track suffers from repeditivitis, but it's something I usually don't skip over when it shows up on the playlist.

(almost three years between reviews. nice)

This needs a flow over the top of it. A nice mix and thumps in the truck. Like stated get someone to lay some rhyme on top of the beat and you got a winner!

[Liontamer]

Heh. Dated, but definitely a quirky piece o' work. Short, but an interesting take on the theme.

[OA]

A contender that could have gone all the way to the heavyweight bout if only it had some lyrics (you like that analogy? I made it up myself. :P ).
There is a ton of style and cool going on here. The ring bell and the speak and spell or whatever is awesome, and the little synth playing a variation of the "you got your ass knocked out" theme is very cool.
I wish it would have had some lyrics and a bit more length though.

[Palpable]

Very cool song with a lot going on in it. Perhaps I just like the style of throwing a bunch of different instruments into a pot, and then trying to make sense of it (my own remixes are often constructed that way). The bass is a little ear-killing, but otherwise, I think it has a solid groove. Wouldn't have minded hearing another minute or two of it.

[DragonAvenger]

Overall needs something else to really fill in the track. Quirky track, but it doesn't grab my attention overall. Some of these reviews are pretty amusing, though.

Very beatbox worthy.

It sort of reminds me of an underground boxing ring.

Definitely quirky, urban, thumping-y.

I could see this one day getting lyrics, but right now, it just doesn't really impress me.

So I totally did the whitest thing imaginable in my car today when this came up. I turned it up and started rapping improv lyrics about little mac to my passenger to the beat of it. Apparently lyrics really will spice this track up. Too bad I suck at rapping.

Ok so the track it self is deceptively simple, but still really great in its own way. It has that kickin sample, nice scratching bits, and there's also that phaaaatttttt bassline. I like it!
