Default OCR00653 - M&M's Mini Madness 'virt's Madness'

M&M's Mini Madness 'virt's Madness'

Well, it's nice to hear some of Virt's stuff get more attention. Overall I like this arrangement, as well as the effect the small room reverb gives - props to Mustin for not concert-halling the hell out of this. However, although I'm loath to criticize anything that Mustin does, I do have some comments here. The voice sample in the middle needs to be more audible, and I would have liked to hear a bit more power out of the brass. There, I'm done. :) No, I'm not gonna criticize the length - it's short, but it's well developed. Do yourself a favor and grab this song.

This ReMix has been stuck in my head ALL DAY. I was humming it while at a funeral! Do yourself a favor and get it today. Does the original more than justice (which, by the way, kicks much ass. Get yourself a copy of M&Ms Mini Madness too. It's a fun quirky game.). Cool stuff, Mustin :)

Fabulously infectious swingin' track. Reccommended.

I agree with the previous comment about the brass, some kickin' brass licks would have added a whole 'nother wing onto the building.

The Twin Peaks clip blew me away. Totally unexpected, but somehow it works![/i]

Very cool

The jazz/blues type feel is excellent

The solo around 1 minute is great

i love that drums near the beginning especially that snare intro

Jazzy and fun, this is a great bite-sized Mustin track, and one I could easily imagine in an animated short for Pixar. My favorite part is the piano; great flourishes throughout. It sounds very off-the-cuff, and improvised, even though it was all planned. The brass is tastefull and lends itself well to the samples used, and the bass is vibrant and fun.
My on;y complaint is that like most of the earlier mixes on the site, it could stand to be a bit longer.
Overall, a "damn good" mix. :D

That 'Damn good coffee' bit didn't make a damn bit of sense to me. And yet, somehow, thinking of M&M's and coffee together is just too good not to have together. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed this song and I play it whenever I lay eyes on it. Mmmm...I've suddenly developed a craving for M&M's and coffee.

This could definatley be a bit longer, but it's a keeper for me. Quite catchy, and reminds me of "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiago". Lolz

For some reason, this remix reminds me of that one episode of Loony Toons where Daffy Duck was Duck Twacy.
Don't know why
I guess it's got a good gumshoe beat.

This is one of my favorite remixes and keeps me wanting more.
I agree with previous sentiments about how this should have been longer.
If anything there should be a sequel or something to this remix.

The bit starting at 0:23, which is after the "Damn good coffee", is my favorite.
Even if you know the coffee part is coming, afterward you're left with a feeling of "wait... what the heck" and the remix continues on like it never happened.

This is a definitely must download.

I honestly had no idea what to expect when I started listening, but it was really fun, upbeat, toe-tapping goodness. The keyboard sounds especially nice! Good job.
