  1. Regarding the writeup--- Wholesome, yes. Family friendly, yes. But have you looked at the unmoderated forum latley? The stuff in there is most certainly not wholesome! Any way, this is great! Happy music makes the soul rejoice! The lyrics are great, the vocals are great, the pads, guitar, everything! And Pixietricks, you're a good singer! Not many girls nowadays can actually sing. This is totally solid.

  2. Hmmmm.... It's pretty good, the array of sound effects is very nice, with a soft cathcy synth line, and smooth fairly realistic sounding strings. The one thing I don't like about this is how soft everything is. The original is faster, and the synths are A LOT more powerful, I find that making it into a soft song causes it to sound kinda lame. Also, it never reaches much of a crescendo, it stays soft. At one point it sounds pretty powerful, but that effect vanishes too fast. A great ReMix, worth the download.

    Synths: 10

    Beat: 7

    ReMix value: 10

  3. Eh, all I hear is the same thing over and over again. The beat is great, the sound effects are awesome, but it just does the same thing the whole song. It doesn't have much ReMix value in my opinion, and is WAAAAYYY too repetitive. It also sounds a little empty at certain parts, such as when it hits the chorus section. Try adding some long string-type sound effects, and cut the lenth down a bit.

    It's a great ReMix, but you gotta work on it a bit.

    Keep at it ^_^

  4. Sorry, but this needs a lot of work. The drums are too quiet, the reverb-click type sound at the beginning is WAY too loud(This should be fixed if you turn the drums up), and like pu freak said, it sounds a little empty. Try adding some string style sound effects in the background, a deep pounding bass wouldn't hurt either, but you don't have to do either one if you don't want to. It sounds great to me, it reminded me a lot of some songs by Orbital. I haven't heard the music from that game, but I suggest you add a little more original stuff, it might sound a bit better that way. Also, the drums are a little too simple. Keep what you've got for them, the beat is awesome, just add some additional sounds for percussion. A good one would be a snare rim hit. This is actually a great ReMix, I started bopping my head to the beat, but it needs a bit of work. Keep at it ^_^

  5. Goodluck with it then.

    If anything... you can try simple and have the song build up over the course of what ever length you would have it finalized at (or would like to) and perhaps make a climatic and satisfying end...

    just my $0.02

    That's what I'm going for. This should turn out great, I might just be done tomorrow. Prolly not, but it'll be that much closer to being done.

  6. Like Goten-X I like it as well as it's quite solid... The only problem is that it resembles too closely to the original song. Maybe if you had the guitar playing in a different style along with putting in something original into it (just to be clear I'm not saying you didn't) since it really sounds more like an updated or "remastered" rendition of that song which for some reason I can't remember, even after playing that MMZ game alot lol... again it just seems more like a remastered rendition (which I liked in any case) rather than a REmix...

    But hey I don't play instruments/synthesize music I just listen to them so... kudos to you to making it.

    Wish I could be more helpful

    Don't worry, you have been helpful. A lot of people already have said that it's too much like the original, so I've added a ton of new stuff. What I've got now sounds infinitely better than what it was before, but I'm still tweaking it a bit. I should have a new version up in a bit.

  7. To much emphasis on the background guitar in the beginning I would say, like at :53 its louder than the introduced sound. The part before :53 seems to be leading into something but since the background guitar just keeps going it never gains much intensity.

    And at 1:24 the guitar that is introduced might need something added, its not that fast paced either and doesnt seem to work well alone. Anyways thats a bit of a biased opinion but I figure you're going for something like at :24 which is faster and overpowers the bg guitar a lot more.

    The ending seems to slow down a lot for no reason as well which I think could be a lot better. Anyways these are just thoughts I had, its a good remix, nice job.

    Oh, and I checked the Volume on the guitar at :53. It stays the same, but I think I know what you mean. Should I just turn the bg guitar down a bit? And It doesn't slow down at the end, it sounds like that because everything cuts off but the drums. Or are you talking about the chorus section? And at 1:24 are you talking about the section where it stops before the chorus? If so, then I'm fixing that now.

    Well, like I said, I'm still working on it. Thanks for the tips, I'll dink with it a bit.

  9. Thx, what do you think would make it sound a little different? A different beat at one point?

    That could work... maybe something like that after you repeat the song twice (or even in the middle of the second time). A guitar solo would be sweet, as well, if you're up to it.

    Oh, heck yeah! I add guitar solos all the time to the songs that I make, and that's exactly what I was planning on doing at one point.

  10. Huh... This is solid. The only thing about this I don't like is the guitar (too much distortion for me), but that's just personal preference.

    I like it, but it doesn't really feel like a remix. :/
