OverClocked ReMix...

Super Mario Bros. 3 'aquacadence'

Wow. That's all I can say when I listen to this. Some really damn nice instrumentation and arrangement here. If you like music, you WILL like this mix. It's a guarantee. That is, unless you absolutely hate anything close to orchestral. Regardless, recommended without a doubt! There is simply nothing bad I can say about aquacadence other than that the ReMixer's name is decieving :)

DarkCecil more or less summed it up... it was difficult recognizing the original melody, but really - this is better. You won't be disappointed with this one.

Wow. Just Wow. I am never remixing in techno again. I want to be a better person too. I want to help the poor, I want to... You get what I mean. This remix is nice in everyway. As I listen to it, I feel so happy and better about myself. This was nicely done, nice instrements.

cool.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I can't say enough about this absolutely fabulous piece. The begining is completely captivating with all of the different voices coming in one-by-one, the snare in the background is perfect, the bells fit right in, good use of crechendos and decrechendos, I can even sing to the melody of the original song. GOD! This piece is absolutely fabulous. Looking forward to hearing more from you!

PS Is it possible at all to get a copy this piece in sheet-music form? I have a band teacher who would probably LOVE this and LOVE to have the class play it.

I just wanted to say thanks to the judges and to djpretzel for posting this mix. I know OCR has high standards for music placed here, and I am elated to know that I have met these expectations.

Also, thanks for your kind comments everyone, a little praise can go a long way...

This was a pretty simple theme in SMB3 that'd I'd never imagined to have a remix of. Sill, analoq seems to pull it off very well...it is a beautiful, almost overblown interperatation of the theme. The fact that it's done very professionaly discourages me just a bit - it almost doesn't sound like playing Mario 3 with the frog and the annoying squids and the little bubbles that push you every which way anymore. But maybe I'm just a little too used to weird stuff. Anyway, this is still a great remix that everyone should get. It's one of the better orchestral remixes I've heard in quite awhile...

Sweet, very sweet. When a remix can take a simple sequence of bleeps and turn it into a sweeping, theatrical score - well! My hat is off to Analoq for merely having the vision to create this mix. Never mind the fact that it has been pulled of so well. The piece plays effortlessly. Nothing is "tacked-on". It just works.

Nice work ( :P ) ! I'm looking forward to more. :)

No doubt about it, this kind of remix is always overdue. It sounds so ...EPIC!

I'm glad I had the priviledge to listen to it. Well done, DJ.

One request though... More church bells. They really add a lot of sound, and I think that if there was a little more of these, this remix would have gotten an 11/10, instead of a 10/10. ^_^

Please bring more like this!

A very good arrangement. I think my favorite part was with the piano. But it no longer made it sound like Super Mario Bros 3, but something serious, which is in no way bad. Some of these soundfonts I recognized... I must have them. Anyways, I think it was a really good song, an excellent first if it is a first.

But if you guys are so much into orchestral pieces, you should also really check out Russell Cox, if you haven't already.
