Awesome. The tempo changes and switch-ups reminded me of the Zero track you did a while back, but with this, you managed to incorporate many sources while changing the speed of the mix and still keep things rocking, which is cool. I liked how you were able to work Find Your Way in, as it seemed to fit well in the whole of the mix. Good job, fella.

The glitchy nature of this mix gives it a very fever-dream/ bizarre mental trip kind of sound, but for something like prelude that doesn't have a whole lot to it at first, this is a great personalization. I love the violin addition. Nice start to the album.
-
Excellent work on this one. This is an awesome ReMix to go along with the other Castlevania mixes you've made.
-
This is a mix that brings it really freaking hard and from an arrangement standpoint, this is pretty good at making a ReMix that brings the aggression. I would, however, have to agree with Brandon that this mix could have benefited from some production and level fixes. I think he said what needed to be said on that, but as for me, I liked it and it is definitely a pretty sweet mix. Not bad.

I definitely hear the anime-opening feel though, and I think it's cool how well it reminds me of that. Kind of like if Phoenix Wright (or even Dragon Ball) had a new anime season and this was the opening theme. Feels like an elevated 80s~90s-inspired track.
This right here. Both DJP and Timaeus nailed it on the head with the fact that this has many musical cues that an anime show or a game with poppy soundtracks like Phoenix Wright has, which is great for an uplifting ReMix like this one. Generally, with the energy and positive vibes running through a mix like this, it's kinda hard to not to enjoy it. Nice work, man.

Certainly is groovy and adds a hell of a lot of fun to the Windmill Hut. I liked the additions of Zelda's theme and the secret found cameo, and the story and mental visuals behind this song is pretty cool too, especially with how the vinyl records plays into it. Cool stuff, fellas.
-
Fun jazz piece right here. I really do like the old time detective feel that DJP brought up that this has, between the snapping fingers, the jazz flute, easy-going and loose playing style that this kind of jazz excels at and so on. Wonderful ReMix and a great track off the album.

Hard-hitting and powerful, this is the rocking metal ReMix that FF battles themes benefit from in intensity. Good rhythm, powerful drums and awesome variety as the mix goes along makes for a great track. Very good.
-
Seriously fits the soundscape I've always pictured Doom with, with a dark, crunchy, grittiness that goes hand in hand with the hellish challenges you face within it's levels. Nice work. Definitely my favorite ReMix from you so far.
-
Beautiful and seems to keep what made the original so great on an emotional level. Nicely done.
-
Sugary and vibrant for sure, this has all the best parts of a chippy little electronic theme all rolled into a neat little mix. Not bad, a pretty good debut mix.

Little V!!! I've been a huge fan of this man's epic metal covers for certain SK and Killer Instinct themes (can't stop listening to his cover of Hisako's theme and his work on Cinder is sweet) for a while now, and to see him appear on OCR a few months later is cool. As for the ReMix itself, it definitely follows his quality of playing and arranging, and this rocking metal arrangement is an awesome listen. Nice work, fella!

Nice to see some fresh faces and some returning remixers teaming up to put out a pretty good hip-hop rap of the sewers theme. There are a few rap pet peeves of mine in this mix, but it's just a personal taste thing, so honestly I have nothing to really nitpick at arrangement-wise. Not bad.
-
Hot damn, this is almost downright heroic in terms of the melody and feel. The energy is high and driven, and those arpeggios truly are sweet. Hell of a track, this is the kind of rave that brings it hard! So good!
-
Nice, dude, this has a fantastic grit to it that makes this sound super intense and industrial. Effects were used tastefully and pieced together well. Strong stuff, man.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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!
-
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.
-
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.

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.

Now this is raw power, and fitting for the Imperial Army. Things do ramp up almost half-way through the second minute, making it better than it started out with, and the constant tense feeling kept things menacing and threatening, so between that and the metallistic energy, this is a wonderful soundscape for an army marching on. One of the best tracks on the album in my opinion. Nicely done, man.
