Zelda 3 'Lost Woods South Central'

Very smooth and well-produced submission. Sample quality's good, arrangement's a tad repetative but otherwise well done, and the drum work really shines. My only real complaint is that I'm not sure the choirs that come in around 2:00 really work well on their own - they seemed a tad out of place to me. Once they get combined with the background strings they work well, though. Well worth a download, IMHO.

Thats a nice Reason Dr.Rex loop, isnt it.
The song sounds ok, but its really carried by that one drumloop. Its really more respectable for one to make their own beats, but thats just my opinion. Taken as a whole, the song is relaxing and brings me back to memories of my endless wandering through the LostWoods lookin for that damned sword...

This is some of the best shit I've heard on this site in a while.

I'd change some things, but the idea and execution are both done really well.

I'd like to hear more from this guy.

Rhythm was cool but the zelda song sounded out of place. Maybe it the zelda theme was taken down and octive or changed the key, or the instrument used entirely to something with more low end or more midrange but otherwise I thought this was pretty good.

Gotta go with orky on this one, choir needs to come in MUCH earlier or not at all, but at 2:14 when the strings come in along with the choir, it works very well.

Overall this track is silky, and the drum loop works well with both the lead trumpet and the elec piano/bass, the lead in "Lost Woods" has driven me NUTS for almost 10 years, and this frankly is the best reconciliation of it I've heard in a long time. Nice perspective work, stays in theme, low-key all the way across. It's a little overly loopy and doesn't click until the last :30 with the choir, but I'll tell ya what, skillz are possessed. They may not be mad level yet, but they are there.

For a first submission, this ain't bad atall. The Weeble wants more.

7.5/10

i really like the idea... and the overall sound is great

there are just some things....
- i think the drum panning would be better in the center, especially when it's so important in this track
- bass could be turned up. dope beatz have dope bass lines to go with them.. otherwise it just ain't dope
- i feel like there's too many snare hits... it takes away from the track's "bump" and "groove" factor

... anyways... good job on this remix. it's always good to see some hip hop stuffs

In all honesty, I didn't really enjoy this ReMix. Personally, I thought it was too repetitive, and didn't capture the Lost Woods theme entirely well.

On the plus side, however, the mix sounded great, and it was well-constructed. I just felt as if it was missing... something.

[Woffester]

I agree with Mustin almost 100% on this one...But it is sorta repetitive but I didn't notice that until you guys brought it up...But other than that virtually invisible detail this song is phat-tacious.

I thought this was an excellent remix. Simple and well organized. I like your use of instruments (e.g. the horn/trumpet thingy), as it kept the original feel, but jazzed it up. Most of all, I liked the main "SouthCentral" melody you used; it was tizight! If anyone says it's repetative, it's not your fault as the original song (one verse) is only about 20 sec. long anyway. Nice work!

Thanks for your comments. Yep it is a Rex Loop, I'd love to have time to work on my own loops, but this is a 3 hour a week hobby!!

Next track I think will be an abstract hip-hop Animal Village from 'Link's Awakening'.
