I love Ekaj's Super Metroid mix and this one is also a perfectly balanced mix of heavy beats and oozing atmosphere. More, please? --Eino

Not much to add, very deliberately paced, solid moody track, nothing superfluous, nothing lacking. Vocals work very well in this one; I can understand and even agree with the suggestions for technical improvements here, but most importantly they sounded very convincing on an emotional level, I felt like the singer was meaning what he was saying. Actually, that's a sweet note, which is the opposite of a sour note. Scientific fact. This made me think about the ending, and I agree with this previous guy here: I thought the ending was a great fit. --Eino

Duhhh, I managed to miss the map themes part.. I even wondered about the project title. The idea I've been kicking around is for SMB overworld theme. Anyway, I think the focus & scope is quite excellent, lots of fun! --Eino

Congrats on reaching your goal & more! I gotta agree, the artwork looks really good, with a fun concept. --Eino

Yah, it was fun, good stuff in there! --Eino

I first got into Fast Tracker II, and never really got the hang of the Impulse Tracker style interface though it supposedly very powerful with all the keyboard shortcuts. Anyway, I started using Renoise in 2008 and it has pretty much the tracker interface I'm used to, plus just about everything I dreamed would be cool back then.. I never got very productive in a regular DAW environment, so Renoise has been really good for me. --Eino

Hehe, sure I'm around. I have some stuff to be posted on OCR, I do my stuff on the tracker and certainly get that .ITs and .XMs part from your blurp in the original post, if I get back into making original pieces on the tracker I'll be sure to send some Reunion's way. (: --Eino

This is a pretty cool project concept, that would break some new ground. The idea of SMB music as the source material sounds like a lot of fun. I actually have an idea I've worked on a bit that would fit this concept, I doubt I could pull the required production values together for it on my own, but I could get some substantial work done on the arrangement and see if someone would like to collab on it with me. --Eino

Reunion rulez. I like to set the filter in my music player to "Probably Electronic" and enjoy the consistently good results. --Eino

I really appreciate these introductions. Especially the notion of sending PMs to mod reviews, I would have thought that each of you monitors the boards for mod review threads, and that I should just wait. It's also great to have a summary of expertise, that helps with who to contact. --Eino

The underground caverns, it's a watery place. --Eino

I have resubbed my UNATCO arrangement. --Eino

Damn, I was just yesterday thinking how I'd like to cover this tune. Urgh, I really don't have the time! --Eino

Well, my dear daughter just fractured my old original DS. :/ --Eino

Urgh.. another sunday night/early morning listening party? I'd really love to participate, the Gunstar Heroes parties were a lot of fun! --Eino

Surprise 40-minute "entry"! ..yes that took me 40 minutes. --Eino

I like the scope of this project. Should be interesting! :> --Eino

Powerful stuff, great playing and good clarity in the mixing. I think the music has a nice balance between complexity and straightforwardness for my taste in heavy prog-influenced music. I also enjoy the switching between angular riffing to grand, majestic feel and back. And then there's "Solar" which is something quite else again. Unsurprisingly, the bass is super tasty throughout. Very riff based, there's little overtly melodic content here but I'm really not missing that. I like how the pieces don't drag on, but are quite concise. Easier to enjoy on repeat! --Eino

Thanks for the crits! That all makes sense to me. I'll look through the source for more material to use in the lead & support writing. I'll take care of the soundspace issues as well (thicker lead/support instruments I'm thinking) and look at the snare too. Again, thanks! --Eino

Install iTunes -> sell soul to Apple -> buy album -> also buy the Roof Beam Carpenters album while you're at it -> convert to MP3 -> uninstall iTunes can't get your soul back from Apple tough Kidding about souls and Apple, but not sure I want to jump through those hoops either. DarkeSword, won't the bitching about iTunes-only in this thread help make Capcom consider other distribution channels? --Eino

https://www.humblebundle.com Humble Indie Bundle 9 has Trine 2 (+expansion), Mark of the Ninja, Brütal Legend and the new Eets as a beta. Pay more than average (around $5) to get FTL and Fez. Now I can vouch that for FTL alone this is a deal among deals! Soundtracks too for Trine 2, Brütal Legend, FTL and Fez. HIBs are pretty much my main source for Linux gaming, so I always appreciate them. I'm looking forward to playing Fez especially! --Eino

I for one won't be getting this album if it's only available through iTunes. I do think this is a cool thing happening! --Eino

A bit late, but happy birthday to the one and only Dj Mokram! edit: Pretty neat trailer for the album! --Eino

I'm actually pretty pleased that a Linux version will get made. Maybe it'll work on my rusty trusty old laptop! Probably won't be able to pledge during the KS, but I'm certainly looking forward to buying the game sooner than later. --Eino

From a quick listen, sounds like a good update! Especially the organ (tasty sound there), and the strings at the end fill it out nicely. I'll try to give it a more thorough listen soonish and give more feedback. --Eino
