Alright - it's Metroid, it's ailsean, it's guitars - how could you go wrong? This is actually really two ReMixes in one, with two separate tracks being taken on. While I like both, I'm a lot keener on the second than the first, as it gets into some serious chunky metal-guitar chordage. Not much else to say on this one, actually - like I said in the intro, it's guitars, it's ailsean, it's metroid and you should probably download it for those reasons alone. Oh yeah, and the ending is really perfect ^^
The first half is trash, the second half is decent. I think i'll give this one a pass overall, sorry. :-(

I love it when a plan comes together.

The intro is insanely good and DARK. Someone needs to do a full song on this theme and make it into a dark depressive song!
The second track is nice, but I prefer the first theme, besides I've heard the second track's theme a million times.

My only real complaint is the beginning, remixing the intro to Metroid. From what I recall of the original, it didn't play "Twinkle Twinkle" with the high-pitched tweets like it's done here. Maybe that's just part of the Remixing process, but I found it a bit unsettling none the less.

On the whole, this is just an above average remix to me, but one part of this song just... well, there's no other word for it, I suppose. It [b]rocks[/b]. From 1:58 to 2:43, this thing gets a ten out of ten. I've heard this particular melody (path to Kraid's hangout, as another poster mentioned) remixed in at least five other places, and this little section of an otherwise fair 'mix blows them all away.

The second part (many may recognise this from SSBM - Brinstar Depths) lives up to the title - Metal. This part is arguably the main part of the track, and it's more creative than the first part.
well having never played SSBM, :roll: i wouldnt know how close this mix comes in comparison :?
However...... :twisted:
any [i]REAL[/i]Metroid fan would instantly recognize the second part from the original game as the path to Kraid's hideout.
all in all a great mix .... I know i like it :)

It's just very nicely put together. The guitar is outstanding. I find it hard to falter it for any reason. The only thing I dislike is the fade out in the middle.
Otherwise well done.
