ok, my tracks from ORC from bundeslang's list: 2 Reactor 18 Verküpfungsgenerierung 20 man i used to be boring 22 power hardcore 27 nasendorf 30 moonstuff 38 howard 41 kangaphant 102 nutfuck these are ALL missing on my end. bundeslang, if you have em, god bless you. and thanks for posting that list, anyway. moonstuff was so good. i'll wade thru the PRC tunes on another day.

I love the way the vox feel on this. A delicate, ethereal performance, and the way they're mixed just makes it sound like the singer is whispering right in my ear, and I mean that in the best possible way

My man, you say it like this and make it sound really weird, sus, illegal, perverted or otherwise untoward. 😛

quick co-sign with the gario and chimpa. when i turn this all the way down, the last thing i hear (for a while) is guitar. which is a shame, because this is a great arrangement and has loads of fun stuff happening alongside it. my particular favorite spot is coming out of the slithering 7/4 line around 1:30 into the power-metal section that's right after it - really fun section. the solo at 3:07 is also great. crank down the guitar on the opening and this is a definite pass, because the arrangement's nuts. this is IMO a very straightforward fix and won't require a ton of balancing to make it work. NO

I'm still loving this wonderful series of Donkey Kong mixposts, I'll accept about 20 more please.

I really like the tempo shift in the middle. The ReMix goes hard and has some neat modulations! Somewhat heavy but maintains jnWake's jazz background.

I'm always ready for some Argle music. Glad to see he was uh, 'convinced', to finish this.

Prot did a great cover of this theme that put it on my radar (I owned the first game, but not the second.) Noting here that I've only heard the revised version. I'm familiar with Wake's work of course, yet I was very surprised by just how structurally interpretive the treatment ended up being here. Sections like 1:48-2:30 feature Ronin Op F and TheManPF creating tension and aggression, respectively, but the arrangement doesn't need to stay menacing with the source tune to have something to say creatively, so I'm glad Wake leaned into his penchant for dynamic proggyness, which never steers him wrong. YES

This is a wicked-cool arrangement! As Gario said there are so many excellent elements here and great performances. But I have to agree with Gario about the guitar and volume of leads. The guitar is oppressive in the 200-300Hz range. I don't think it needs to be brought down by a lot (a couple of db should do it), but the lead volumes are also way too quiet throughout the track, giving the guitar an even heavier feel. Gario is completely right to point out the completely different volume balance that happens at 3:07, that is the lead-volume that should be the target in the rest of the track. Leads should be heard! When you lower that guitar volume, I suspect the low-lows are going to sound a tad weak, you may want to bump the low-lows by a db or two to compensate and give the low end some beef. This is a great track and an easy YES but a volume rebalance must happen first. NO (please rebalance guitar and leads and resubmit asap)

Not as familiar with DKC3 as the others (like most, I imagine), but surprisingly I pretty easily recognized the source in this even before listening to the source myself - it's pretty distinct, and this arrangement does a good job representing it. There's a lot of cool harmonic switch-ups done throughout the arrangement, and I think they all work great. Overall, the arrangement is great, especially with all of the pad work and textures behind the guitar. Sample is soupy sounding for the guitar (doesn't really have any sense of strikes or strums), but it also chugs nicely so it works well enough. Speaking of the guitar, though, I think this is my main hang-up with the arrangement - the mix is just drowning in that guitar. There are so many cool things going on behind it, but I had to really strain to hear it all. I know it's an important instrument for this genre, but the mix needs to be better balanced between all of the other instruments, particularly the leads. Listen to 3:07 for the potential this arrangement has when the guitar isn't dominating over everything else - it's fantastic and you hear every detail of that lead. I like this, I think it would be significantly better with a better mix so I'm sending it back hoping you'll be able to clean this up. NO

Didn't do too much PRC back in the day, I was more an ORC fella (wanted an excuse to have folk remix old originals I had on hand). I don't think I can help too much since from my time, the only tracks that aren't currently available of mine that I can grab are from ORC 114 & ORC 115 (I think I won 115 so there is no Gario 116). ORC 114 (Off the Rails To Infininty) A Willrock MIDI, iirc, you can ask him for the source, if he holds his MIDIs from 2008. ORC 115 (Invigorating Air) No idea whose source this was, I forgot the winner of the prior round (it wasn't me, lol) Sorry I can't be of more help than that, good luck on your hunt. EDIT: lol Bundleslang's list was big enough for me to miss the ORC tracks in there. Would be pleased as punch if I had a shot to hear Willrock's version of Innocent Evil again, it was a banger :)

oh thanks so much!! i didnt expect this! need to wade thru this the suicide track no.7 oh man i love that one. ty so much nvmbrrain. almost all the other ones were lost. kinda shit most of them but so good memories and i forgot about all of them. and ty bundeslang for that list, i think there were a few more in there. i will compile the missing titles. christmas haha

F-ZERO - Remix Medley | Astroverse Dimensions

I'm baffled there are not tons of remixes from this game on the site, the songs are all so catchy.

It's such a good song from a good game! Glad to know people still remix the OST from this game.
