This is a GREAT and I do mean GREAT ReMix of the elecman stage music from the original Megaman . . . the sound quality, synthesis, live solo, and what not are all very nice, and sound professional . . . I like it a lot . . . I think by this time next year this site is gonna have over thirty megaman remixes . . . but that's OKAY, this was a popular series that had some great tunage, and with mixes like this one, I say keep 'em coming!
Discussion: Latest 14 comments/reviews; view the The guitar-ish pattern starting at 2:12 sounds like it came
straight out of 808 State - Banacheq (track 12 on Don Solaris),
shifted up by two semitones or so. Not that I'm complaining or
anything--- 808 State is awesome, good choice. Spot the sample. :^)

In my opinion, this is one of the best remixes on OCR. I don't know
jack about remixing, but I have an ear, and this is one of the most
atmospheric, enchanting pieces of music I have heard on this site.

This is a really good ReMix for being from back in AD 2000. Would
probably have passed the judges panel even in 2004.

The samples are a little cheap for my tastes in some spots, and it
starts out pretty reliant on the source, but it picks up later on
and has a good deal of riffing over the original chord
progression.
The stop/start is terrible though. It is too abrupt in both the start and the stop, and it sounds like the song ended early and then a similar sounding new song started up.

Hey this is pretty cool! Lots of fun electronic sounds and good instruments are used. Then suddenly it stops and makes you say "WTF??" But it starts up again. Everything will be OK! I like the use of the electronic sounds in this mix.
I agree, the beginning is very technoic, many different sounds that bounces around the roof and floor. But it didn´t come as a surprise, it hadn´t full throttle in the beginning, so when it turned over to the background instruments containing synth strings and dark respective light synths that build it up more and more with the beats that over the seconds returned to their work. Actually very good. Only that brass in the beginning sounds too much as the original, but except for that, everything just´s fine.
Ypoi, :nicework:

I like it. But it repeats a few times. The beat is goopd and I
question if it has any depth. Good for one listen on the radio.

Agreed, This is a nice techno version but Injury's is much better when comparing the two mixes. The last part of this song seems to trail off into what is a repeat of the intro. Though it's not a bad song to listen too for a few minutes.

jerky for me, but was otherwise a worthy effort.

That is an awesome remix. I can't complain about it. Its really
happy and extremely deep, but not overly pompous or flashy (Partly
on the behalf of the composer, but props to YPOI for sure). It's
remix perfection. Well, perfection doesn't really exist, but it's
beyond excellent. Only thing is the original chorus is out, but I
think if the chorus was included it would defeat the whole purpose.
Megaman and the crew would be proud.

It's a real nice track....upbeat, happy.....the *eeeeeeeeeeee*
thing doesn't really sound all that great, but it is a good excuse
for a break, and besides, it's elecman, of course it's going to
have something like that somewhere. :P
And....one last note........for some very strange reson, it reminds me of the op to Gundam 0080.....don't ask me why, I don't know, it just does....
85%.

I particularly love the hi-hats here. There's just so...
groovalicious. Also, it's pretty happy, and how can you complain if
something's happy?
Everything was very chosen... even the pizzicato works wonders with the guitar. Major props.

I agree, its a great song i like how it gives you a good beat while
keeping the smoothness of the original song, that makes it such a
great song
