Cheers fellas.

That's what I love about them. They're minimal, yet have great potential to be arranged and expanded.

Been trying to do a Torvus Bog remix on and off for, I dunno, 4 years. Finally was able to finish this iteration. Mix of rock and electronic. Bogged Down

There's something about the synth lead sound that doesn't sit right with me. It sounds too nasally or something for the mix. Seems to be a buildup of frequencies in the lows/low mids for the kick and bass. Just my quick impressions on headphones.

There's something almost symphonic about this tune. It's totally epic, in a chippy way. I love it.

I think this also explains my reaction as well. Maybe I'm out in left field. That's entirely possible.

The violin sounds kind of timid to me, lacking confidence. Pretty nice track overall, though.

Always good to see some Metroid Prime love. Pretty nice so far, I look forward to seeing this develop.

I also recently got a smartphone, and while I was skeptical of its usefulness at first, I've become totally addicted to it. I've found some good stuff in this thread. The tuning app, for instance. Until 5 minutes ago, it never even occurred to me that my phone could replace my Korg tuner.

While more dense than the game soundtrack, this track would sound completely at home in the game. One of my favorite on this site.

Damn, you're fast. You've really got this orchestration thing down.

This track is off the chain. Have been a big fan of it for awhile.

I joined Fitocracy and joined the OCR group, but to tell the truth I'm so fundamentally out of shape I don't know where to start.

This is one of those ReMixes that almost feels more appropriate than the source track. You know what I mean? Like this tune is what the game track wanted to be.

Thank you for doing this. Much appreciated.

I'm really digging Torchlight 2. It's done a marvelous job at not feeling repetitive, the major stumbling block of hack n slash games.

It sounds like Pendulum is having a bit of a joke on people, trying to prevent them from copying their bass sound in a self-effacing way. "Oh, our bass sound sucks, don't bother trying to copy it. *snicker*"

I don't think I'm done tweaking the intro, not quite happy with it. And I'm not sure if I like the first main lead sound or not. Thankfully I've only been at this track for a week so I'm not sick of it yet. and yep, this sounds nothing at all like the original. Which might not be a selling point for people who like the original soundtrack.

During the mix process, do you switch over to mono and address issues? A mix can sound great in stereo, then you switch to mono and you want to cry. But you have to gird your loins and confront your instruments all piled up on top of each other, like they tend to get in the car. What I do guarantee is it has absolutely nothing to do with your rendering. Most likely it's a case of your mix sounding good in the "sweet spot", and bad elsewhere.

If professionally mixed music sounds good but your track sounds bad, there's something wrong with your track. That's why car speakers and headphones are indispensable parts of mixing. They instantly tell you if something is way wrong.

The Wandering Hero source Big beat, I guess. symphonic big beat? sounds kind of pretentious.

As said, there's no law against using complex presets verbatim. Just your own sense of shame.

Whoa, slow down there, big spender.

I think a real violin would sound much better than the sampled one you have. I'd be happy to knock out a recording for you. PM me if interested.

imo the rhythm guitars should be wider. The drum mix isn't really slamming like it should be.
