  1. Pretty good orchestral arrangement with good pacing and instrumentation choices, as it did come off as a natural flow. While there are things that could be nitpicked at, in the end, it's about what sounds good and works, and this sounds good and works for me, so I can dig it. Not bad, man.
  2. Funky, but with a personalized take from the mixers. Well done, guys. The section at 1:40 really got to me, I enjoyed that quite a lot, and that constant shred at 2:19 was magic. Awesome stuff from Taucer and FFmusic Dj.
  3. Smart and extremely pleasant arrangement of the opening demo. Of course I'm a sucker for ambient sounds, especially storms. Neat story behind the title as well. Very solid mix, man, I like this.
  4. Holy shit! Damn, Sir J, there are no words for how how insanely talented and incredible this is. Super funky, fitting as hell vocals that made me a fan of yours originally, and an awesome groove that is totally infectious. The play on words for space terms was great, and I loved how you were able to get in so references like Cowboy Bebop, the Enterprise, barrel rolling and especially Portal 2's reference (Spaaacccee!!). My god, Sir J, you win. Going down as possibly my favorite ReMix of the month, and the month isn't even over yet. Straight to my Ipod this goes.
  5. Gorgeous. This is absolutely beautiful and a bit haunting in the way it uses soft piano and sax to make a great relaxing atmosphere. This is perfect for chilling out to. Love this. Also, the Prescription for Sleep albums should definitely be checked out by folks. So many great tunes.
  6. Cool dark adventurous and chilling arrangement you've got here. I unfortunately haven't had the chance to play this game, but I can easily see this being used for an environment for a cave or cemetery for an old nes platformer. Really digging the swinging used along with the chips as well. Wonderful ReMix, Hylian Lemon!
  7. The effects and the hip-hop idea of this ReMix appealed to me, and being a fan of Punch-Out, I enjoyed it for what it was. I do have to say that having someone rapping over this would have pushed it over the edge and done wonders for the mix, as this seemed like a base for that. Basically, it's good for what's here, but man, it's begging for that little something extra in the form of lyrics. Not bad though.
  8. While I don't mind sound effects or vocal clips, the "Yoooo" was used a bit too many times for me. But the rest of the mix had a great atmospheric effect and had a bit of mysterious vibe. The ending was a bit of "ehh" and it really would have been better off with just a quicker end and leaving out the cracking noises the got louder before cutting off, which was unneeded. Still, "A" for effect and some good ideas though.
  9. Early McVaffe with a good take on Relm's theme. What can I say, any mix that makes me halfway enjoy Relm's theme is a-ok in my book. While not my favorite of some of McVaffe's work, it's still a decent mix from a game that had it's share of easily assessable themes to play with. Nice work.
  10. Hahaha, well, this is certainly amusing and entertaining if nothing else. Hey, if it can put smiles on faces and get a few laughs, I'm all for it. Clipping for percussion, while an interesting idea, kinda wears on me after a while and doesn't help that my speakers are as rough as they are. Beatboxing with a capella and whistling and other weird effects......yeah, this is an experiment in voice recording, and while I can't say that this will be added to my playlist, it was well worth the listen for the amusement factor alone.
  11. The melody is pretty nice in this mix, and while dated, I can see where the mix was going in it's writing up until the end, where it kinda just fades off when it seemed like it could have gone on or ended on a different note. Still, age and nitpicking aside, this is a fine mix with some positives for Ys fans to enjoy.
  12. Intro is actually really good and while I get what the ReMixer was going for with the beats and the kick, it just doesn't really work for me as it stands. That said, if given a revamp and a polish on those areas with today's tricks and techniques, this would be quite the fun mix. A decent go at the source, I'd say.
  13. This is the update and ReMix that the Disco Train needed so very much. Taking all the groovy goodness from the original and turning it up to eleven with full on vocoded vocals and a fresh disco beat is terrific. Awesome mixpost Light Pillar!
  14. Some streaks don't break.....who's next?

  15. Fantastic. This is a genius idea and it really does sound like a few Mega Man themes being ran through a Harry Potter soundtrack machine. Usually when someone tries to emulate a score style, it's either Elfman or epic adventure, so hearing the whimsical Potter take of Flash and Stone Man is sweet. Very nice.
  16. Oh my god, yes, I am totally getting the Morse funk vibe out of this ReMix (and the opening bit of the intro reminded me of the opening bit of the intro of Another Part of Me too). I'm enjoying the synthy retro take on the Museum stage here, and it feels like it fits right in with the Mega Man world, especially with some of it's later tracks. This is quite the debut mixpost, RoBTKA. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing you on the front page more often. Damn good ReMix.
  17. Feel the burn, Cinder is coming!

  18. Site looks pretty slick. Just a matter of getting used to all the new features and the look. This is fantastic.
  19. The ReMix really does pick up after the first minute and keeps hitting it's groove for the rest of the mix. For a rocking ReMix that gets better and better with each second that goes on, this is definitely one that needs to be heard all the way through to get the full experience from. Great mixpost.
  20. Piano lead in with ambient trance beats is an awesome way to lead-in with a mix like this. Funny how you still were able to keep in some of the mysterious vibe from the original source even though you weren't sure of Decapre's character, which is a testament to the source itself and your choice for the genre of ReMixing it. This is an awesome take on her theme and a sweet addition to another great Apex album. Keep it up, Neblix, you're really ripping it up, man.
  21. Besaid had an extremely peaceful and gorgeous theme that matched it's location, so taking that source and adding a watery, percussive feel to it makes it even better. Synths were well done, and the percussion gave this otherwise calm track some life and energy. Solid as hell Emunator.
  22. For a chill song with a nice beat to it, this is hella relaxing and nice to just kick back and listen to. I'll agree with the judges on some of the production picks they had, but honestly, those few things aside, this is a wonderfully chill track that fits a dreamy or icy vibe perfectly. Nice work, dude.
  23. Dude, that drum work and staccato beats at times sound like they're straight out of SF3 or some other classic McVaffe ReMixes. He's always had a good knack for hitting those sweet drum beats. Not bad.
  24. This is pretty chill, man. The combined efforts of the drums, guitar and piano made this that much better. Very good work, fella.
  25. Sweet, it's almost like the "Unsealed" of Contra. Virt has always been a musical master, and it shows here with his ability to combine all those sources together in a nice package. Sounds good for it's age as well. Nice one.
