Default OCR00761 - Mega Man 2 'The Tallest Building'

Mega Man 2 'The Tallest Building'

Do I hear an intro inspired by the Preylude? =P (That's Mustin's Prelude on PMM for those of you who aren't in the know ^^) Intentional or not, it works well here, and it's nice to hear some stuff from Starla that isn't pure Chiptune. It quickly turnes into he patented analogue stily, though, and is actually by far my favorite song she's done in that style. So yeah, get it.

Default Well...

Ok, I'm not sure about your theory here Starla, but the overall effect is great. And is that a bit of woodman and airman included in the mix??? IS IT?!? Because it sure as hell sounds like it. So sneaky. You are the sneakiest evar.

Anyway, a nice sound coming from this whole mix. I love the twinkly arpeggios that dot the "woodman sections" (as I'll call them), and the funky bass in the airman sections. Though those two themes are similar, so I may be hearing them as two different sections despite the fact that they're both the same. Anyway great job overall. Can't wait to hear more. MORE!

I was listening to this in it's beta-stages...
It was good then.

It's better now.

The whole song is fantastic. Great work Starla!

And to DiscoDan: Yes, there is a few very sneaky samples from the woodman theme ( around 1'54 I think) and the Airman theme ( around 2'15 )...

Sneaky.

Great work. Keep it up!

w00t!!

I looove the intro. It's so beautiful. The way it builds to something completely different is amazing. The techno part is very dancy, yet atmospheric as well; it's very enjoyable. The little breaks into sub-themes from other stages of Megaman 2 are amazing. Megaman 2 was one of my AlL-tImE-fAvoRiTE NES games, and this tune reminds me of the great times I had with that game.

*applauds

Yay, Starla!!

:D :D :D :D

10/10

I like this because I just really like the drums and those "oom" sounds. The synths seem entirely appropriate to me as sometimes it's hard to picture some of the manic music of Mega Man (say that 10 times fast) any other way. Other than of course the beginning, which was also nice.

I especially like the little details, like when the hi-hats come in, the good stereo detunage, and how the bass becomes more prominent during the 'break' sections. :D
