OCR02789 - Sonic CD (JP) "Schizophrenic"
Dubanubiel replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
this source has always been one of my favourites from the OST and I'm glad this songs does it justice. It's definitely different in style from the original but it keeps that funky/poppy feel. Makes me want to move around just as much as the original. -
OCR02784 - Sonic CD (US) "Yours Truly, Satan"
Dubanubiel replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
when I heard about this project I was worried about how this source would be treated. It's less music, more horrifying sounds to make you crap yourself. When I was a kid I always turned the volume off when fighting the bosses. The music was too scary for me to be able to focus :S... PH did a really solid job. The melodic elements are much more present without taking away the creepines of the source. -
OCR02787 - Sonic CD (US) "Future Crystalline Luminosity"
Dubanubiel replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I absolutely love this song. Easily one of my top picks from the whole album. It reminds me a bit of Mattias Häggström Gerdt mixed with Vega Projekt (Blind's side project for a bit) while also still being totally her own style. Really solid production and a beautiful auditory picture painted. Keep it up! -
OCR02563 - Sonic & Knuckles "Airborne"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
"The original song is one of the better remembered game soundtrack songs from my childhood, and certainly one of my favourites. Even then I imagined what it would sound like in a more hard rock / metal esque setting" You're speaking my language here, dude. This has always been one of my favourite game themes of all time ever since I fist played this on Genesis when I was a kid. I would sometimes time out just because I would listen to the music and not beat the level. That being said, I am pretty picky about remixes of this source and overall I haven't been overly impressed up to this point, but you nailed it. The same kind of speed and fun that makes a Sonic track what it is. Props! -
well played! I've been kinda itching for a little more bluegrass from OCR and you definitely delivered. I've also been playing through FFVII lately and thinking it would be fun to figure out Farm Boy on my guitar. You've got some great skills and a lot of creativity. Look forward to hearing more from you!

OCR02247 - Final Fantasy VII "Heavy Mako"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
absolutely sick song. It fits the source really well especially when you're in the Mount Nibel reactor. Your rhythms are absolutely sick. I could just sit and listen to just your rhythms and forget the melody even existed. Supreme props man. May this be the first of many sick submissions -
OCR01907 - Final Fantasy VII "The End"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Somehow I missed this mixpost and my music player decided to randomize this tune. I'm sad I hadn't listened to it until now. I'm a little sketched out by OWA mixes. I've never really liked any of them except for Prince of Darkness' "Prancing Dad." When I caught onto the source I thought to myself "oh great... another OWA mix." Thankfully I kept on listening. It's not cheesy like just about every other mix I hear of this tune. It's honestly darker than Sephiroth himself! I dig it and give pops to Tefnek for making something out of a source that rarely gains my favour. -
OCR02274 - Super Metroid "Avien"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Theophany's Bioluminescence on HoaH was definitely my favourite song on the whole album (which is saying quite a lot considering how it is my favourite OST remix album). But then this same caught my attention. I doubt I could count how many times I've listened to it this week. An absolutely amazing song with so much emotion. I'm not normally into such downtempo music but, Theophany, you've won my ears over. Please keep producing such top notch music! -
OCR01420 - Super Metroid "The Mother Is in Control"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
It has been a long time coming posting something to this mix. I often find myself going back to this song and falling in love with it all over again. That chugging guitar may be repetitive but it is exactly what the song needs. It's a dark, unstoppable, plodding musical onslaught. I'm still not sure I like the way the Hal quotes were used but the words definitely fit the song. Props! -
OCR02488 - Donkey Kong Country "A Hint of Blue"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I am a huge fan of the source to the point that I am very picky about remixes of it. I admit I was a little skeptical at first but once the cross-panned bit came in I started to warm up to it. But holy frig when that guitar and quarter note synth bass line hit I was totally sold. This mix is full of so many emotions. Even the watery ending was fitting instead of just another water ending to a water level song. May this be the first of many submissions! -
OCR02442 - Cobra Triangle "bra reloCaTing"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I admit that I never got to hear this song. I would get to level 7 and end up throwing my NES controller through a wall in a blind rage. Despite the horrible flashbacks that the game's title brings, great remix. Really chilled and contemplative while also keeping a very David Wise feel to it. -
OCR01759 - Donkey Kong Country "Lost in Jungle"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I somehow have never hit this song on random before. Like DJP I was expecting a really awesome solo piano arrangement. The first half really impressed me. When the other elements joined in I wasn't as into it but by no means did I stop liking it. Aquatic Ambiance is definitely my favourite song from the DKC OST which makes me super critical of any remix of it. This one does not disappoint -
OCR02238 - Final Fantasy IV "Path of Deception"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
If I were to ever compile a CD of my favourite songs of all time (an undertaking I'd never actually dare to do as it would take me months to narrow down the list) this song would definitely make it. This has got to be my favourite song by bLiNd which is saying quite a lot. Burning Vigil, Dodge This Sakura, and Jade Catacombs have come close to stealing first place but nothing beats those chopped up female vocals and the envelloping bass. -
OCR02382 - Sonic & Knuckles "Quicksander"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The same thing happened to me when I was a kid but the opposite thing happened to me. I became instantly hooked to that level. In my somewhat twisted young mind I fell in love with the creepy ghosts and the sense of urgency. This song really brought all of that back for me. That same sense of encroaching darkness is in this song. My only quarrel with this song is that it's maybe a bit too short. Then again Blind kind of spoils us with 10 minute songs. -
OCR02076 - Trenches "Burning Vigil"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I honestly don't know what people's problem with this song is. It's probably one of my new favorite Blind songs. I like Jade Catacombs and White Skies, but I'm more into some of Jordan's more experimental stuff like this and Path of Deception from EoB LoR. Guess you can't please us all. Blind, keep up the good work. -
OCR02028 - Super Street Fighter IV "Time to Oil Up"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
this morning I woke up with this song stuck in my head, which is strange because I hadn't listened to it in a long time. It gets better every time I listen to it -
OCR02064 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2 "Chemixtrixx"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I've waited a long time for this mix. This mis is pretty high on the badass scale I must say. This is an excellent rendition of my favorite S2 tune. Keep these mixes coming! -
OCR CS:S or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Plant the Bomb
Dubanubiel replied to FireSlash's topic in General Discussion
screw WoW. Once work calms down, I'm going to play CS:S again. I've missed it so. -

OCR02046 - GoldenEye 007 "Creeper at the Train Depot"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Very edgy. This is my kind of darker, edgy, experimental electronica. Not going to lie, I find that Goldeneye kinda lacked in game music (even though it's in my top 5 N64 games list), but you brought a new... I don't want to say light due to the darkness of the tune but that's all that comes to mind. Welcome to the site, BlackPanther, and keep 'em coming! -
OCR00975 - Final Fantasy IX "Black Magic Synthesis"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This song has done three things for me. #1 Solidified my addiction to OCR along with Project Chaos #2 Grew my love for the character of Vivi #3 Blew the front speakers in my Neon. The first two are awesome. Losing sound in the front of my car isn't so great. The amount of layering, filtering, and effects is staggering to say the least. I love heavily layered and tweaked music, and Baranowsky caters to that love with this song. Those beat cuts are killer. Literally. -
the opening really reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age's album "Songs for the Deaf" especially how it switches to a Spanish station. This mix itself is pretty energetic and catchy but it's really the "Music of My Groin" reference that sold me. I burst at the seams with laughter from that unexpected reference.

OCR01715 - Final Fantasy VII "Son of Chaos"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
the darker the trance, the happier I am. This song brings a very big smile to my face. I can almost picture Sephiroth's twisted smile as he discovers his origins when I listen to this song. I love the synth bass that first appears at 0:38. An all around well-layered and foreboding song. It holds very true to the source material but takes it down a very dark road. Props. -
OCR00851 - Sonic CD (JP) "Stardust Beat"
Dubanubiel replied to m68030's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
to be honest I wasn't super impressed with this one. Sonic CD has probably my favorite VGM themes of all times, and this is one of my favorites from the game. I guess maybe my hopes were set a little too high. It's a good song but not as good as such a killer track deserves. It's just a little too happy for my tastes. -
OCR01712 - Sonic the Hedgehog "Metamorphic Rock"
Dubanubiel replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This song makes me want to tweak my hair, put on skintight leather pants, and sing in an octave than most men wouldn't even consider. Excellent job bringing the three melodies together. I never would have thought to being these three into one piece but you did a great job. The guitar solo was executed really well. Perfect timing, good shredding, and the right kind of melodies all combine into a true glam-solo.
