Mega Man 2

While it does show some MIDI roots, the sound set used and the programming on the drums are enough to qualify this MM2 ReMix from Electron, which takes a rapid-fire kick drum and moving slap bass to the Bubbleman theme. The super-fast arpeggio patterns are also slick, and there's a smidgin' of reverb to balance things out so that, even if it doesn't have the sonic quality of a Peeples or Prievert, it's still well put together and worth listening to.

Well I'll give this this much - it does take a somewhat unique approach in its lead. However, I think the bass being that loud contrasts too much with what otherwise would sound like a synth driven rock piece. There's not much done with the source to distinguish it from the original either...

very retro feel to it, enjoyed it quite a lot. the synths on the melody were very nice, and I liked the fast synths scattered here and there. the break around 2:00 was nice as well. good work.

Definately very midi. Some good things; drums are decently programmed, though they still sound pretty meh. The arpeggio thing was a nice touch, though overused.
Aside from that, not much going on in terms of arrangement. Combine that with subpar sounds and it's not so great. Sorry.

I'm sorry... but I have to say I think this a pretty weak entry. It really sounds like hardly any work was put into it, and the result is something not far off from any MIDI of the original track you can download off the net.

Sounds like a midi rip with drums added, but the drums sound decent at least for what it is.

Many say this is made of mostly MIDI.instruments- and I have to agree, but they are put together so that it doesn´t really sounds bad, actually good. :)

The opening is nice. The drum programming is nice. I have a personal bias over using bobo midi electric basses and guitars in the era of "Reason" and VSTi's. I like it around 2:25. Still a nice tune, though I can't say that enough of it was modified from the midi rip.

It's not the worst thing I have ever heard especially since I have no experience in making Remixes. But there are better remixes of this out there. Anyways I liked it.

Hahaha, this is SUCH a midi rip. It doesn't sound bad, but even I could make one of these.

I know it's an MP3 file, but the cheap sounding instruments used make it sound like a MIDI file.

Organ does the main tune as fake guitars, bass etc come in and out playing different parts. More panning should have been done here, but it's still quite acceptable. The drums have a short delay on them which sounds sort of cool, and there's just enough variety to keep you interested. Some of the highs are a little sharp, but it's still ok for the most part. Ok song, but could have been better in the creativity department.
