OCR00105 - Lemmings (DOS) 'DABOMB'

Lemmings 'DABOMB'

Short and sweet by dabombinc. Making use of a drum and bass type loop incorporating a voice sample to keep the groove, some smallish synths for the main tune and some nice reverb, the song plays along bringing loops in and out. Pretty standard stuff here, but it is well done, and some good panning is used. Keeps at a steady pace, not too fast, just right.

Not bad, very cool song. I especially liked the voice sample,
along with the super reverb. Not too long and never becomes
stale. Reccomended dl!

beautiful

I cannot express in words how this remix makes me feel. But i`ll try.

some people do incredibly flash remixes that sound like they came straight out of a tip-top pop studio in stockholm. others do grungy, dirty mixes that sound like they came from under someones bed.
This one seems to be created using pure emotions. It actually puts in musical form the emotions i felt when i first played lemmings on the Amiga. I was lucky enough to get an A500+ amiga for christmas, way back in 1993(i think), featuring the cartoon classics software pack. This tune takes me back to that cold winter in a warm house, playing lemmings (which back then was the gaming equivalent of crack cocain). I remember being totally overwhelmed by my amiga that year, my last c64 had died 3 months earlier and i`d asked for another one for christmas. I was expecting a c64, not the classic cream and brown model but the lesser tan and cream c64c that incorperated the later (MUCH inferior) revision of the SID. Instead i got (for the time) a monster of a machine that blew me away. I mean it changed my life. The music from lemmings, even now makes me go a bit gooey, but this remix is just so spot on perfect for the tune. I must have listened to it more than a hundred times since i downloaded it a couple of years ago. I considered remixing this tune myself, but then gave up. I know that i will never do a version this good. Its not about technical skills or orchestration. In any other tune that overused break would have sounded lame. but here it just fits like a glove. the clean synths with slight resonant changes are simple but perfect. The reverb is just enough, not bouncing all over the place and not stopping to short. Everything from the original tune that needed to be there is there.
I can`t recomend this tune highly enough. For me personally its close to being the best tune on here (tho i haven`t downloaded them all so don`t hold me to it)
Download it NOW!
Then listen to it
Then SMILE!

Can you review a review? No? Well, acting like the anarchistic son-of-a-bitch I am, I'll do it anyway! ;)
That was the best review I've read here on the OCR forums. A lovely tribute to this, somewhat overlooked, remix. After reading, I can really understand your feelings towards this particular song, even if I can't say I share them with you. Nostalgia plays a big part in this.
To mention Stockholm (home, sweet home), as a centre of slick producions, was nice touch too.

About the song: Well. I like this one too. I remember playing Lemmings like a maniac. Eventually I had to accept being beaten by the game.
Yet, I don't feel this special something that d0d0 speaks of. Only Monkey Island music can do that to me.
To me, this is another well done remix.
Respect.

I know it's probably rude of me, but I'm going to BUMP this song in the hopes that some people will see it on the main page and download it... such a gem!

I found the Creater

I figured out who the original Creator is
It says on the Title screen for Pocket Tanks that

"Music by Eliran Ben-Ishai 'DNA-Groove'"

please please please at least look at the game, even if you hate it you can at least be sure that I was right about the music
