  1. the difference between tony hawk and doom is that hawk games never remixed original songs into MIDI like doom did, they licensed the actual tracks from the bands themselves. Bobby Prince never got permission from the bands themselves to MIDI their music. In short, its odd to me that some tracks on the remix album were allowed yet some of those same tracks were omitted.
  2. so what your saying is although 4 of the Delta tracks are remixes of original songs, the bands never posted copyright issue with them? it seems a bit odd to me because id has never been sued by any metal bands for their doom work.
  3. I know that, I'm just pointing out that the whole ban on remixing MIDI tracks taken from real music is BS. I think it should be thrown out. Doom is reason enough
  4. I think the whole ToS issue here is crap anyway, especially in this case. any music turned into MIDI for a game and then remixed here should be ok. the only ban at all should be on licensed music ripped directly like Road Rash using sound garden stuff. But since you brought the cat out of the bag now here is the full list, doom and doom 2 the tracks in red indicate the remixed ones Doom E1M1 - At DooM's Gate = Metallica - Master of Puppets/No Remorse E1M4 - Kitchen Ace(And taking Names) = Pantera - Rise E2M1 - I Sawed The Demons = AC/DC - Big Gun E2M2 - The Demons From Adrian's Pen = Metallica - The Call of Ktulu E2M3/Intermission Music - Intermission From DOOM = Pantera - Regular People E2M9/E3M1 - Untitled = Pantera - Mouth of War E3M3 - Deep Into the Code = Slayer - Behind the Crooked Cross E3M8 - Facing the Spider = S.O.D - Sargent D And The SOD Doom2 Map01 - Running From Evil = Megadeath - Hangar 18 Map07 - Shawn's Got the Shotgun = Slayer - South of Heaven Map10 - The Demon's Dead = Black Sabbath - After All (The Dead) Map18 - Waiting for Romero to Play = Pantera - This Love Map23 - Bye Bye American Pie = Alice in Chains - Them Bones Map25 - Adrian's Sleep = Alice in Chains - Angry Chair Map31 - Evil Incarnate = Wolfenstien 3D* Map32 - The Ultimate Challenge/The Ultimate Conquest = Wolfenstein 3D
  5. a lot of those old effects that you hear all over the place originally came from games in the first place. Most of the ones mentioned here are from movies, but some came from the games themselves.
  6. I'd say this is a big step up from the first album, do you think there is enough original material in Final to do a third. Also I'll keep the rest of the doom 2 tracks you missed that are based on real songs so the album can stay up lol. personally I think doom should be an exception since a good 70% of all of doom and doom 2 were MIDI versions of real tracks, about half the tracks on this album are also but I'm going to keep my mouth shut on which ones...that goes for the rest of you too. My only suggestion would have been to do something different from an old mazedude track, the whole thing should have been new I think. Still best doom album yet. oh and did I mention some of the crappy doom 2 MIDIs here were turned into something good in the album. 9/10
  7. Review 14/1522 A solid Rockno remix, soft and smooth enough to listen to several times. quality. Score 10/10 "winsauce" -TP
  8. Review 14/1522 Not too over the top not to dull simply put this is a rock remix everyone can enjoy. Pure and simple say no more. Score 10/10 "Even Scrooge McDuck would like it"
  9. Review 13/1522 I almost feel like an ass for this but I didn't like this particular mix. In the beginning the direct source riffs were too quiet and the monkey sounds were almost as unnecessary as the pump up the volume lyrics that appear in every other mainstream techno album. One thing remains for certain, everyone has different tastes and likes with style and the remixers worked their asses off without a doubt. but its just not for me...and believe me, I don't like to write a bad review, makes me feel guilty most of the time Score: 3/10 "DK banana peel"
  10. Review 12/1522 Normally, adding a sizable amount game sound effects to add to a track beat, particularly old voice sounds is something that bothers the crap out of me, however, the use of it in this track adds some serious quality to it enough to make it something I will listen to a lot in the future. Now all the mixer has to do is a doom track with some zombie and shotgun sounds for the win. Score 10/10 "tastier than bananas" -TP
  11. Review 12/1522 Work that Orchestra, work it good; this remix is so darn well done in its faced paced, adventurous tone. Loads of nice low battle drums in there make me want to get on out there and take down some castles. If you love nods to the medieval, this mix is for you. Score 10/10 "Wench Owning"
  12. Review 11/1522 Acoustic guitar, piano, soft drums and a classical setup come together to form an extraordinary mix that is smooth and playable over and over again. With the added dash of a small tech beat, this is almost at the top of my massive collection. Score 10/10 "excellent"
  13. Review 10/1522 This rendition of reunion had some pretty interesting stuff in it however its just not my bag. the guitar and synth at the end were pretty good though. The main strings and drum work here, although quality, just don't agree with my tastes. Score: 3/10 "Taste Dispute"
  14. FlamingTP's omni-review challenge# 9/1522 Now this my friends is a work of pure awesomeness, and I'm not a giant Halo fan either. This mix of the Doom engine prequel is laced with gold. Most mixes of halo origin I find have too much chant in them, but this offers smooth background nod to it without overdoing it, all the while pounding an accurate, absolutely solid rendition. 10/10 "Master Chief"
  15. Remix 8/1522 Piano is one of my favorite things, however thid one sounds out of tune, but maybe its the heavy use of the extreme high and low keys that throws me off still the man can play and that counts for a lot. Score 5/10 "Average"
  16. Remix 7/1522 OCR01549 - Chrono Trigger 'Theme of Frog's' Beginning with a sound more like the original track, Jethro Tull would not mind this at all. Good smooth live Celtic through and through Score 10/10 "awesome"
  17. Review 6/1522: Street Fighter 2 "hey Mr Honda" Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the first eddition of RE-VIEW-KEN This track starts off thin and a bit too long on the non-electronica beats however the volume softens (or my ears get used to it) and the mix picks up a steady pace. Still a bit slow and thin for some but over all I'm loving it. Score 9/10 "Excellent"
  18. I don't know if this has been mentioned in the last 38 pages, probably so but Mazedude has a Barrels O' fun on here, if they made exception for him doing "them bones" then they should for you guys, either that or remove mazedude's track too.
  19. Review# 5/1522 OCR00744 - Final Fantasy VI 'Enchanted Esper' This track combines a nice combo of guitar, piano, and flute for a smooth, interesting collaboration of musical goodness. At eight minutes ten seconds long its so good you can still listen to it all the way through, some of you however, would have problems listening to it without occupying yourself to another task given the length. This however does not effect the quality of the mix itself except for some crackling near the end with the guitar but I'm not that picky, I'll have to reclassify my ten rating to a more subjective term since there are some noticeable flaws, but the mix is just so damn good. Score: 10/10 "Excellent"
  20. Review# 4/1522 Final Fantasy IX 'Alexandrian Nightmare' This industrial style tech mix is good for what it is and what was intended, unfortunately its not the most pleasing on the ears for me, but as always different people, different tastes. Score: 4/10 "minor taste dispute" -FlamingTP
  21. Review# 3/1522 Final Fantasy VIII 'Final Jungle Fantasy' This track features some good pop tech with a steady speed, grabbing my interest through the whole track. The only con to the track is, in my opinion, the unnecessary use of your standard "what what" beat-box, MC Hammer, pop rap much more suitable for Jet Grind Radio. Not really my thing outside of it. Score: 7.5/10 "Acceptable"
  22. Review# 2/1522 Donkey Kong Country 3 'My Red Hot Pursuit' This remix Started out great with some nice oriental tones, the voice didn't detract from the general tone of the mix either. Throw in some deep vibrato synth to seal the deal and you've got gold. However, at the half way point the voice got a little bit louder than the beat for my tastes and towards the end the ReMixer's voice singing "Nothing can stop me now" with some 80's standard keyboard effects bothered my ears a bit. however over all I'd consider this a keeper. Score: 8/10 "Recommended" -FlamingTP
  23. Hello everyone, this is my first review of the tracks in my collection, I will review every track...yes every track, the rules thread challenged me to do so here goes Review# 1/1522 Mario Paint: Intense Color: Intense Color makes great sense to me because this remix is just that: Intense. It is so far the only track on here of the "Chase Techno" variety. I say this because it reminds me of people chasing after Jason Bourne in those quality films. Understandably this remix screams the frantic pace of someone running away from some unseen danger who is having no trouble catching up. The track even includes some "slow motion" effects of possible stunts in a blockbuster chase sequence. Score: 10/10 "No Flaws" (note it is possible to score an 11 but only the best track of all in my opinion gets this)
  24. A fine how do you do to everyone. I have signed up on these forums to accomplish 3 things. Firstly to review every track in my collection (1530 and counting I deleted some) in a more formal review format. Secondly I wish to learn how to remix and play the new keyboards I have access to now; it will probably take a couple years to learn enough to post stuff I imagine. My third mission is to request remixes for games such as Vectorman and Mortal Kombat. Either they have none or someone mixed up the movie theme for MK and I want some stuff for the games up there. I tune Pipe Organs for a living but illegal immigrants have stolen most of the business so I wont be doing that for much longer. If any one cares you can contact me anytime you wish, I don't mind at all.
