Yeah, NES Jams is awesome. And this hybridism is such a fun listening experience. Great stuff!

Mole Mania for the Game Boy also hits its 20th anniversary this year. One of Miyamoto's most obscure gems.

Wow! Lots of screaming guitar work in here, man! Right up my alley. Congrats!

http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00944 This is the only song by lazygecko that still has his old handle in the youtube title/description.

I felt the sleigh bells stayed for too long. That and they were slightly piercing to me. Last note at 1:15 could have stayed a little longer to build a more fluid transition with the accordion. This is indeed too close to the original, so the sax solo at 1:26 was a welcome addition, (though it had some reverb while the other saxes didn't, which makes it inconsistent on the production side). Also, I think the outro lasted for too long, repeating the same portion over and over with very little variation (the cymbals at 2:17 were a bit loud too). Anyhow, I enjoyed when the saxes went wild and the outro with the guitar stab. Looking forward to future tracks from you guys.

http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00456 This one is labeled as a Yoshi's Island ReMix. But I am sure it's from Super Mario All-Stars (it also says so in the write-up). That is what happens when you're in an OCR mood and go adding songs to a playlist.

Cool. Not familiar with the source, but it's a nice new stuff by Nuts. Reminds me of his ReMix for the first Doom project (probably due to the sci-fi feel). Also, nice orch hit synths at the end.

1: When I joined the forums, I would comment on mixes from any game/ReMixer. But now I only talk about music from games and artists I am familiar with. I know this sounds unfair and close-minded. But that is how I am rolling for now. 2: I think the basic core of solving this is lifting listeners' tastes and opinions. Ergo, I endorse DJP ideas and echo what Skrypnyk said about the VGMix RPG-esque system. Also, I wonder if every poster could include their top 10 favourite ReMixes in their profile page. This was a feature in VGMix and OLR, too. And OLR turned into a barren ghost town after many user listening features were gone.

I bet it would be cool listening to this one while playing the game itself.

Agreed. This reminds me of virt's/Jake Kaufman's Mighty Switch Force OST. Yet this also has that house flavour JM is known for (like the rhythm piano at 1:21 and the deep pads around 2:45). A very cleverly written remix that should not be missed.

This is really good.

When I hear this I picture the desperate struggle of a person trying to breathe.

Orchestra hits.

It's always nice to hear new stuff from Rozovian. This is very intricate. Lots of dirty synth work and soothing instrumentation to counterbalance. Cool transition at 3:41. Also, the "soft" parts reminds me of from Big Bang Mini.

Lots of energy in this one. The time sig change at 1:34 was a welcome addition. I like when people do that!

To be honest it has more to do with the fact that Shu Takumi wasn't involved in the Investigation series. Can't pick a favorite. What I like about playing as an attorney is their sarcastic side that they keep for themselves. This happens with Phoenix, Miles, Mia and Apollo, too. Athena looks like a Vocaloid character.

So is this project forgotten about, or just simply abandoned?

This one stands out due to its well-done hybridism.

I played this 12 years ago on an ocarina. I'm serious.

Thanks everyone. More recommendations are appreciated. This fits the bill for me:

A Biker Mice remix by WillRock? Today is my (and OCR's) lucky day!

Nice episode with Gimmick's composer. But yeah, it could have more varied info given its length. Konami certainly had many NES games with good music on them. But this also holds true to arcades from the 80's and 90's. I did some VGM hunt a while ago. Not trying to endorse a company, but my conclusion was that they had more games with good music on arcade systems than any other company during that era, in my humble opinion (though there are still plenty of worthy tracks from Sega and Capcom with their CPS2). Some of their 80's stuff was pretty sophisticated for its time, too.
