OCR01424 - EarthBound "Da Black Market"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Any fan of Earthboud will ADORE this mix, regardless of the rap element. This is one of those that at least demands a listen, if not a permanent playlist addition. Flik reminds me of Weird Al... -
OCR01409 - Mega Man 6 "Odyssey Beyond the Falls"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Mmm...I'm so-so on this mix. It doesn't really fit my personal tastes, but it's very well made and very relaxing and mellow. Great instrumentation especially...the bagpipes, an easy instrument to screw up, sound perfect. Props. -
"Now it is time to take longer strides"--Peter Griffin anyone? Eh, it's a little low-pitched to be Peter Griffin. Anyway, this is a great song...I actually find Daft Punk more annoying than this mix suggests. The graty, underground feeling works well...reminds me of Earthworm Jim for some reason. Props mutagene, one of my favorite remixers on OCR.

OCR01404 - Secret of Mana "Dragon Song"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Well considering it is (was?) my absolute freakin' DREAM to remix Prophecy, and Harmony accomplished it with amazing skill, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! It's got a little something for everyone...I thought it was good until 4:00, at which point it got GREAT. Makes me want to jump up and play a game of SoM right now. -
OCR01371 - EarthBound "Battling Organs"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is really a superb mix if you ask me...it pretty much is a caricature of Earthbound's general grooviness. For me it just conjures up that image of the wavy background colors during battles...I dunno, that whole game was on acid. Great mix though, 8 out of 10 in my book. -
OCR00561 - Final Fantasy "Matoya's Hot with Destiny"
ghaleon replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This remix was pretty good...I thought the background beat didn't fit very well with Matoya's theme at first, but the more I listened, the more I liked. -
OCR00518 - Final Fantasy "Something Final"
ghaleon replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I have to say that even though I haven't been a big CotMM fan in the past, I loved this one. GREAT BASS. AMAZING BASS. Being a string bass player I appreciate that. I'm with Jemni on the song classification though--it draws mostly from FF7 it seems... -
OCR00494 - Donkey Kong Country 2 "Brambles in the Breeze"
ghaleon replied to Ginnsu's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
There are a bunch of things that make this song amazing: 1) it's a remix of the best DKC2 song, 2) it's long but it keeps your attention the whole way through, and 3) the instrument selection is damn near perfect. It jsut screams DOWNLOAD ME! -
OCR00355 - Castlevania II "Bloody Hell"
ghaleon replied to Saunders's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
When I saw Kaijin AND Ailsean I nearly pissed my pants, and the song didn't disappoint. The only problem is some awkward harmony around 1:15, but this is still worth a download. Great work guys! -
OCR00877 - Chrono Trigger "Crying Mountain"
ghaleon replied to DarkCecil13's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is an excellent representative of good techno...0:17 through 0:33 is particularly excellent. It's also a good length: not so long that you get bored, but not so short that it leaves you begging for more. -
OCR00967 - Super Metroid "Zebesian Midnight"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Yes! Finally! An absolutely BEAUTIFUL Metroid remix! The transition at 1:43 is superb...in fact, the whole song is superb...recommended for pretty much anyone; it spans a wide array of musical tastes. -
OCR00398 - Killing Game Show "Prime Time"
ghaleon replied to Saunders's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I LOVE the Killing Game Show theme remixed by this song, and although it isn't quite as good as "Daft," it's still worth a download. Too short though... -
OCR00889 - Chrono Trigger "Spekkio the Brave"
ghaleon replied to Ginnsu's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The name of the song fits really well I'd say, and this turned into a great song for me after the initial shock of the bagpipes. I think this song could give a Mongolian Scottish pride...it just exudes a feeling of nobility or something. -
OCR00910 - Final Fantasy VII "On That Day..."
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is a superb remix that really captures that weird nervous feeling you get in Midgar. Or maybe that's just me. I did think that Russell could've done a little more by the way of melody, but this is still a great song. -
OCR00846 - Shenmue "Come to Bob's Pizza"
ghaleon replied to Ginnsu's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
If you listen to this song with headphones on, it makes your head sway involuntarily...whoa... -
OCR00770 - Castlevania: Circle of the Moon "Technomancy"
ghaleon replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I didn't like this song at first, but it's grown on me. It really keeps your attention and gets your feet moving, which is a problem I have with some of the softer remixes and even a few of the more laid-back techno songs. Plus I just love the name "Technomancy," for some reason. -
OCR00640 - Final Fantasy VII "Rape of a Planet"
ghaleon replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I thought this song did a superb job of capturing the essence of FF7 too...the consistently dark feel of the song is what makes it great, if you ask me. -
OCR00661 - Secret of Mana "Time in the Clouds DX"
ghaleon replied to m68030's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I'm admittedly partial to SoM remixes, but this one is great. It was a good song to begin with, and Kailem only improved on it with his (her?) instrument choice and interpretation. 8/10 -
OCR00336 - Secret of Mana "Fear of the Flava"
ghaleon replied to Saunders's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
GOD this is an amazing mix!! It captures the essence of Secret of Mana's battle theme. The background drums are simply ASTOUNDING. It makes me want to play the game, which is always a good sign. This and Tidal Sequence are right up there as my two favorite SoM remixes. Hooray McV! -
OCR01084 - Secret of Mana "Pure Lands (Total Darkness)"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I didn't like the intro too much, but the song most definitely gets better as it goes along. The drums might have been a little too much at times, but still overall it's a pretty good remix for the genre I'd say. -
OCR00212 - Bubble Bobble "West Side Homies"
ghaleon replied to m68030's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Not bad...I think I like some of the other BB remixes more, but the lightness and fun associated with this one are nice. Plus that BB tune is just so darn catchy! -
OCR01250 - Secret of Mana "Tidal Sequence"
ghaleon replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This was pretty damn good I have to say. I've always been a Secret of Mana fan, but I love this remix just as a song...melancholy, yet still energetic...I love it.
