Man, now you're making me feel old.
Although, yes, I still listen to some of the classic tracker tunes from the 90s, and occasionally will craft an homage to 'em. Nice to know there are still some folks out there who "get it." And for those who don't, they get to taste the good ol' days in a new way. (Loved your recent collab with Wave btw!)
Thanks! As we're both 4 years older now, I've finally come up with a reply to this post.
This past weekend, there was an event here in Norway called BIT Live. Jeroen was there, and so was Jogeir - who is also a MoN member now. I told WAVE about this remix of yours, and promised I'd send him a link to it. He was intrigued! You should definitely consider attending one of these events. Chris Huelsbeck and Barry Leitch even flew in all the way from the US.

Catched this one on RKO a while back. Great track! Makke good.

Hey guys. I just released an album featuring 11 remixes of Commodore 64, Amiga and SNES tracks, that I've made over the years.
Track 3 has previously been featured on OCRemix, and the rest have been featured on either RKO or AmigaRemix.
It's available on most major streaming platforms.
Bandcamp
Spotify
YouTube
Apple Music
Thanks for checking it out!

I wasn't involved in this project myself, but I just received the albums digitally - and they sound reeeeeally good! They are proper orchestral arrangements recorded with the Czech Studio Orchestra in Prague. Everything is based on Commodore 64 game music. Highly recommended!
It says pre-order because the physical version is not ready yet. You get the digital version right away AFAIK.
Get it here

Ah, man, so slick and smooth like a nice shiny stone. And that electric guitar fits in so well as a driver to the main watery melody, helping things move along. For a downbeat, chill ReMix, this manages to keep a lot of the musical arrangement in the forefront and keep things interesting, which is cool and what I like to see from more easy-going ReMixes. Good job, you two.
Thanks a lot, Crulex!

The intro is very long, almost quarter of the whole thing, but it's perfect for the mellow, relaxing mood of this mix. And once this track picks up, it becomes even better. Even the guitar doesn't spoil the idle atmosphere here. Also, gotta love that tides + ivories break ot 5:08. This work is sooo sweeeet ans sooo dreamy. Love it.
Thanks a lot, Black_Doom! I studied original quite a lot, and I believe I also extracted the individual channels of it to get as close as I could with some elements. I think that goes a long way to keep the original feel.

Thanks Loning!

This is an OCRemix classic! Used to listen to this a lot back in the day.

Checked it out on Bandcamp. Pretty cool! It's reminiscent of a module-based sound (.xm, .mod), which is nice.
Interesting to hear that you've recently been getting into soundtrack work. I have that same itch, so I can definitely relate.
By the way, I used to listen to your stuff way before I got into remixing. Slick Rippin' Keen among others. Really nice tunes.

Cool tune! The instrumentation is just like a Drax-mod or a WAVE-mod. Maybe he used one as a template? Pretty cool either way.

Is there like a tab i could see? Can't pen the background guitar / chord my self
If you're still interested, here are the chords:
This is what I used as reference when I recorded it. The top row is the chord, the bottom row is the bass note you should use.
You can hear it better in this über-chilled version of the track (it's just the guitar tracks): .mp3

Have you considered adding a tambourine? Also, here's a nice free orchestral library which has some alright percussion in it: http://virtualplaying.com/virtual-playing-orchestra/
This is a pretty cool idea, and it sounds pretty nice. Should be a great addition to the site once you've polished it.

Short, but very sweet! Add vocals, and you'd have Dirty Loops' next hit.

Your album art reminds me of Time Exposure by Stanley Clarke.
As for the sound, I think the lead instruments are too pronounced compared to the drums and bass. The reverb sounds like a small garage, and there is maybe too much? The arrangement is alright, but the sound leaves something to be desired. Just my two cents.
-
Great to hear that someone is enjoying what I made. Thanks, Garrett!
-
This sounds really good! Also, surprised not to have seen this done before. Great idea.
Kickass sound!
-
Sounds cool, but the levels on the drums are a bit off IMO. The crashes are loud, but the rest of the drums are really quiet. Also, the source is very hidden - but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
It's still a pretty cool tune though!

nelward = Quality stuff. Cool tune! It's more relaxed than what I'm used to from him.

How about I call it Seagull Sonata? Even though it's not a sonata...
Edit: Thanks for the feedback, everyone in this thread.
-
Thanks!
Does anyone have suggestions for a name? I was about to submit it now, but I have no idea what to call it...
Could be tied into my other DKC remix, "A Hint of Blue" maybe.
-
Great stuff. Not familiar with the source, but I like the instruments used - and how the bass keeps moving. Excellent sound. Weirdly, I would assume the bass might be real and that the violin part were "faked" if it were not for the text!

Not familiar with classical music, but this was really good!
Secret of Monkey Island, Title - Acoustic
in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Posted · Edited by Mordi
Whenever I sit down to play guitar, I play the monkey island title theme. This version was recorded a few months ago - might turn into a proper remix. I've since learned how to play the melody simultaneously, but maybe this simpler version works better?
