Lemmings

It's hard for me to describe the immense feeling of absolute joy I get from this ReMix . . . I was going to ReMix Lemmings, but now I don't feel like I even need to - this mix is fantastic, and floats by so nicely, using just the right sounds and just the right sequencing, so as to make almost any other mix of this theme, at least, pale in comparison. It's that good . . . . sure, it's short, but it really is quite perfect. Mucho Kudos to first-time contributor dabombinc. for a great showing!!

If this remix was mouth candy (it already qualifies as ear candy), it would be addictingly fruity, gummy, and chewy. It's a sugary treat that appeals to my ears and my taste buds.

Ha, I just heard this all too familiar music playing when watching an Irate Gamer review on YouTube, at about 6:56: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvElRGDnW64
That mellow sound... the lemmings... I searched OCR and rediscovered this fine track.
So cool.

Well, it's great that this guy is remixing a game with music as great as Lemmings - but I gotta say that I was a little disappointed in this version. It loops through the intro melody a little too much for me, and although it does hold some nice atmosphere; the dance/techno style wasn't how I remembered the original song, and it doesn't really build up... it just uses the same 1 beat throughout the whole song overtop of the old melody. It's ok, but doesn't really incorporate anything I haven't seen before; so I wouldn't say that it's great (the 'sonar' type instrument in the background was a cool addition though). If you want to hear the original version off the CD, here it is:

I actually like the songs on the disk version better than the CD's 23 tracks though, as you get to hear them keep repeating forever - and they seem to hold something a little deeper in their simpler format (certainly wonderful enough to make me want to cry sometimes! Ahhh, Lemmings music is so great!). Like I said, reading all these reviews was awesome; and it's an ok remix... but I think this guy could have gone alot farther with the variety in this one (which would, of course, give the composer alot more freedom to give the song a longer length too). Mazedude's Lemmings song is still by far my favorite on the site; but it's cool that there are other people who see the potential in these classic tunes. :)

could somebody else post the original song back up?
that one link isn't working for me.
edit: nevermind, found it on youtube.

You bastard... this song is just getting under my skin. It's all cutesy and loveable and ergh... must.... delete....
Oh, I can't. I can't do it. I've been taken over by the love! -T

I second that 8)
And that which must also be said is that Lemmings was my all-time favorite puzzle game back when i was a kid.

This remix sure makes you happy, I actually has the game for my computor somewhere in this room, I´ll have too find it, but first I have too review this remix.
Very chill, even if the game is actually very dramatic considering that it often includes small dudes with green hair and blue robes falling against their fate, but I´m not gonna focus on that. This mix is happy, fun, like if it would be taken right out of "Björnes Magasin". Now probably all non-swedes wouldn´t understand that, but mustn´t this remind you of a childprogram when you was little, this mix sure makes me think of it.
But then maybe I also should be disappointed, we did also miss a potential remix from pretzel, but as long as we have this one, we sure can live with it. Dabombinc, we´re in your debt. Thanks alot dude.

This remix really brings out the old Lemmings feeling in it. I guess this is why this remix is considered a good quality ocremix. In my opinion though, I thought the drums were slightly too sharp to fit the synth bassline. But, nevertheless, good job on bringing out the old tunes!

- Robotaki on October 3, 2005
Any former player of Lemmings will love this mix. It's always giving a positive feeling, while still sounding pretty cool. Although the only drawback is the fact that it is quite short, this is a mix that can be treasured by all. The original melody from the game prances throughout the mix with a slight dab of our modern world. excellent work, dabombinc.
Final Grade: 8 out of 10

One of my fave mixes on the site. Not complex or fancy by any means, just really freaking happy! This is seriously the happiest little tune I've ever heard. Sweet stuff.

- IC on May 29, 2005
Answer this truthfully: After playing Lemmings for a couple of minutes, who hasn't fallen in love with the game? This remix is a great version of the original, and it would be superb in a remade Lemmings game. I think that the dabombinc. should try and do a huge medly of Lemmings songs. If they all come out as good as this one did, and the transitions are well done, you could have an award-winning remix on your hands! ^_^

was just listening through a collection of my favourite OC Remixes I have saved in my music folder and decided this was my favourite out of all of those, and just came back to post that fact here.
It's chilled it makes me all fuzzy inside.
Pretty, very pretty.

I've had this tune in my head for alooooong time and it's been buggin me to where it was from....but i came across this remix of lemmings and it instantly brought back some great memories and answered my problem....this is definatly one of the best remixes ive heard here....its a nice blend of old skool funk and that happy lemmings sample....great work man

- Frickor on June 26, 2004
I was expecting that great song from the first level, but it's just as good. Really happy tune with some good "funk" if you catch my drift.

- Amayirot Akago on June 3, 2004
oh the memories of lemmings whenever I think about it the catchy tunes is what comes to mind and watching all the lemmings heads explode :twisted: anywho I think this really is da bomb remix all bow down to the green hair dudes :lol: [b][/img][/b]

What Grey Ninja said. I never wanted to download from here because of all the chaos, but the Torrent is great. I listened through all 500 tracks, grayscale after grayscale, but only when this one came up I ejaculated spontaneously. I love it. It's simple but it rocks, and I've had it on single repeat for the last 5 hours. I need to download the Lemmings soundtrack some time.
