Lyrics: (Not a translation)
Dreams of you, so real, so true
When holding your hands, I flew....
Stars are bright, the skies are blue
I'd love you the whole night through...
Near or far, where ever you are,
Your love touches me, I feel new...
Freeze the time, and make you mine,
And always pray, to be with you...
Lying to myself, that I could go on,
With you on mind, my love would be strong...
What will I do, I'm lost without you
Crying in my heart, wantin' you
You're so far away, but always with me
I wander alone, I hope you could see
Holding forever, your memories...
Makes me smile, sets me free
I can't go on, It's been so long
How I wish you could hear me say..
You're every thought, you're everything
Step in my heart, and never go away...
Calling your name, to hold you again
It's been so hard, I miss you every day
Bring back the time, when you were mine
I'm so alone, since you went away
I can't go on, It's been so long
How I wish you could hear me say..
You're every thought, you're everything
Step in my heart, and never go away...

Fantastic remix! I'm very happy to see this on front page. Well deserved! Still love that 1:44-2:11 original piece
I'm so stealing it one day. Great work!also, thank you
-
So it's been too long but we finally have a near finished update:
Listen:
What remains is vocal harmony and some additional background stuff in some parts. I can't make any more updates to this mix in next couple of months because of being away from my workstation. We hope you like it up to this point. Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated
-
Good stuff! loved the progression of the track! Very beautiful sounding mix
-
Thank you for listening! I'm glad you liked it
But I wasn't really satisfied with the results so decided to drop the idea and completely redo the entire track from scratch, with a new key that makes more sense with Claire's voice.
Here is the new WIP for the track (with my vocals as placeholders for now):
DropBox: Instrumental Version
Still needs Claire's vocals, Chris's violin pieces, some background stuff and a bit of mixing once everything is in place.
Hope we nail it this time
-
Pretty awesome! and superb skills!
-
Here's the first draft with Claire's vocals:
Still much to be done.....
-
It's beautiful! I love it!
-
Finally got a chance to come back to this track. I've got Claire Yaxley (Vocals) and Chris | Amaterasu (Violins) on board again
So far, most of the mix is done except all vocals and violins pieces are placeholders for now until I get input form Claire and Chris. I still need to add more background and support elements. We will be recording this in English lyrics (currently writing and finalizing)
Latest WIP:
Once again, all choir/aria/vocals/violins are placeholders for now. As always, Any feedback is greatly appreciated
-
It's been quite long since I last attempted vgm. I'm revisiting some of my old tracks (especially the ones that got NO'ed); trying to improve them as much as I can.
This track has been re-written from scratch. Enough with the downbeat chill mixes
. I'm trying to do a Turkish disco this time around upping the rhythm a little. Hope you guys like it and hopefully it will get through the panel this time around. As always, any feedback/suggestion will be greatly appreciated.'Dancing Spirits'

Fantastic! I'm working on something that is very similar to the style you've chosen so gave me a lot of inspiration
Amazing expression on the leads and I always loved your drums skills! Awesome piece!
-
Pretty amazing is all I have to say. no complains; love it! Your stuff always reminds me of MJ and I can't give a better compliment
-
Here's the absolute final version of the track with quite a few fixes (timing on violins, strings, vocal "glitches", de-essing, some background stuff re-recorded etc.)
Thanks everyone for listening and pointing out all the issues ! Hope you enjoy the track as much as we did making it
Just a reminder that YT link still has old audio
-
Thanks! I'll take care of the humming and snare velocities. I personally feel vocals are great. Them being soft and "sweet" was the requirement of this track
Glad you liked it!
EDIT: Updated the track with the suggested fixes
(Of course YT has same audio as before) -
Finished at last! Magellanic, Amaterasu and Sabi did a fantastic job making this remix a million times better than what it could've been. We hope you like it

Vocals: Sabrina Valenzuela
Violins: Amaterasu

I finally got some time to sit down and make some progress here. This new wip has Sabrina's finished vocals. I still have to fix a few mixing issues (including vocal harmony). Also left is the live parts (guitar and violin) and some more background stuff.
WIP3 (Sabrina's vocals):
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3443029/My%20Remixes/WIP/DjMystix_Remix26_wip4.mp3
Once again, we've tried something different. Instead of an instrumental bridge, we used Sabrina's sweet vocals. Hope you guys like the new wip.
-
wow! You're telling me that stuff needs "likes" to win? Looks brilliant and super, super cute! should be instant win!
(I "liked" it anyway)

While looking for other things Batman on Youtube, I came across the original NES track and just had to do my own version. I hope you enjoy it. Cheers!
I've been soo wanting to remix this for a long time
This is the only NES game that has a much better bass instrument than any other NES title.I like your version but it sounds very midi and coverish. I'm assuming you have no plans to submit it on OCR, right? If you do, then I'll add some constructive feedback
good stuff
-
Sounds good to me. Like I said, I am unfamiliar with the source but it really sounds nice. Why don't you run it with Mods first before submitting? You know, just to get more experienced opinion
-
Fantastic! The source is my second favorite tune from Wild Arms (right after the opening). Really well done! Makes me want to go back and play Wild Arms

This is an ambient, possibly synthpop remix of "Hell Freezes Over" from Jazz Jackrabbit 2. Tell me what you guys think! I'm submitting this soon.
would be great if you can link to the source too
I am not familiar with the source but I loved this. Excellent synth leads and I also loved the bass. Not sure about that compression/phasing at 1:08 and then at 2:26, It isn't adding anything to the track but rather than a distraction IMO. A little bit of mixing adjustment required here I think, it's sounding like almost at the edge of the highs; leads can come in the front a bit.
Overall, it sounds like it can perfectly fit in a 2D side-scroller (not just Jazz, but maybe Sonic too). I think it is a great mix and needs just a little fine tuning before you submit
-
Well done matey! Another well crafted track. They always sound so professional!
I'm adding this one to my mp3 as I want my baby to hear my singing way before she is born... that's right, I am pregnant! My first baby, a little girl, is due in September. I can't wait!! I need to do more singing so she can get used to it.
Thank you for the nice comments about my vocals.
Wow! I'm super thrilled to know that one of the first things the little one is going to hear is uncle Mystix's tunes
Incredibly honored Claire! and many, many congratulations! also, thank you for the kind words
Bravo sir. Submit.Thank you! will be doing that soon
EDIT:
Done! Sealed and submitted! Changing the status back to 'Finished'
-
Hey there! Quick one, I'm about to submit a track sized at around 10MB (It's 7.3 minutes long too) soon. Is it an acceptable size or do I have to take down bit rate a bit?
-
this is friggin' beautiful, and props for including somethin' from xenoblade on here (lovin' that game, especially the soundtrack).
very well done, and the vocals are magnificent. :3
Thank you! I love Xenoblade too. It has become one of my most favorite games of all times.
So good dude
Makes me want to hear more of Claire around OCR, her unique voice and strong delivery really makes this song. And, of course, the rest of the instrumentation built up around that centerpiece is tasteful and well-written, as always.Definitely one of my favorites from you, hope you can maintain this pace for a long time to come!
Thanks a LOT!! I was incredibly nervous when the mix reached 7 minute mark and have tried everything I could to keep the listener's interest up. Looks like mission accomplished (I hope)
Claire indeed has, once again, did an amazing job. I personally think her vocals are better than the original!

Hi everyone,
It's been years since I've done anything new. Recently, I've been working on a VGM remix that fuses Persona 5's "Beneath the Mask" with Street's of Rage's "Keep the Grrovin". I am looking for someone who can sing "Beneath the Mask" in pretty much the same way as original.
Meanwhile, I wrote something original. Unfortunately, it is in foreign language and I apologize to those who can't understand it. It is supposed to scratch that 90's pop-chillout itch. Hope you guys enjoy it
