  1. So much Van Halen.........oh, yesssssssss...........The Big Apple in the early morning night, VH styled Sixto playing and of course April. So much to be hot for with this picture. I actually like that his was done in a more spontaneous one-take way. Hard to describe, but it has a sense of life by making it more......I dunno, like a talented quick jam. Like I said, hard to describe. My inner turtle has gotten so much satisfaction.
  2. Speaking of godly collabs, holy crap, Willrock and Sixto! Two amazing guitarists and rocker ReMixers complimenting each other and taking Technodrome to the next level. I'm so in love with this album because of tracks like this. Cowabunga, indeed!
  3. Crazy arrangement going on, fellas! Enjoyed hearing some Tournament Fighter tracks make an appearance in the ReMix, which really sounds cool when put together with Star Base. Also loving the Star Trek homage title. Pretty awesome to hear a collab with the group making up Snugglemen, especially Snappleman and CarboHydroM. Much respect for the work here, guys. Well done.
  4. Mmmm, yeah, this is a near-perfect arrangement of Night Riders. Jazz fusion with a heavy undertone was the right to go for sure. Not really laid-back in any sense, but it's got a cool smooth feeling. Not really familiar with Casiopea, but this mix makes me want to look into that later. Nice work.
  5. I'm definitely getting a classic rock vibe in some of the guitar-play and underlying chugs, but for a rocking take on Skull and Crossbones, I could not ask for more than this mix. Loving the arrangement expansions in the second half of the mix. This is one hot track, guys.
  6. Being a huge SF2 and TMNT IV fan, I'm a little ashamed that the Fei Long and Bury my Shell similarity never hit me until now. But man, this has got to be one of my favorite ReMixes off the album. I always loved the source since I was a kid, and those "hey!"'s coming out of the SNES at that time was the coolest voice clip I heard at the time.Thrilled that you were able to fit those into this mix. Loving the progression of the ReMix as it goes on, from the slow western vibe to the heavy "what I was hoping for" rock part, and even up to the "surf segment" which kinda made me chuckle, but was enjoyable all the same. Excuse me while I take this ReMix and rock out like it was 1885 (cause, you know, that was the date this stage was supposed to be on....and.....yeah....).
  7. Normally I don't take issue with voice clips, but there were some here (especially the opening one) that I just really didn't care for. That being said, the rest of the ReMix has some nice ideas and with the switching of sources, it never gets stale. Really shows how far an incredible mixer like Mustin can go over the years.
  8. On a personal note, going from FFVII's theme to Terra to Aria de Mezzo Carattere in that exact order hits me in the arrangement feels, because that writing catered a little to me. I may not be the biggest Final Fantasy fan around, but some songs I adore, and this ReMix puts a lot of them together, so I liked it for the writing alone. Has a classic feel to the production, but nothing that outright bugged me.
  9. Not bad for a refreshed sounding version of Flashman's theme. I can certainly agree that while this isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread, it does have an HD/Remaster quality about it that seems to take the original up a notch or two.
  10. Dude, that part right after the first minute literally made me look back at the screen to see if I left another tab on. Pretty weird, but listening to it for a sixth time now, it's not as jarring as it was the first time around. Wild and crazy, but it works.
  11. Oh, dear lord, Jill's voice has always been great, but man this is by far my favorite piece of her vocal work that I've heard so far. I think it might be the tribal and airy style of the vocals that Strader pointed out that I enjoyed so much. Hypnotic in an absolutely beautiful way, and I'd be in error if I didn't say how great the actual music that XPRTNovice, zircon and DrumUltima turned out together in this one was. A+ collab here, you guys nailed it.
  12. Happy birthday Furilas! Have a great one!
  13. I'm actually impressed that this was made on a DS program. With the software samples I've heard on similar products, that sounds pretty tough because of certain limits, but you were able to do it and create something great in the style of stylistic jazz that comes off like a cheesy cop show (totally a good thing) and neat to hear. Hats off to you for proving once again that it's all about what you do with your tools, not the tools themselves. Damn good work, man.
  14. The ReMix title is so appropriate for this ReMix. Definitely hearing some of the influences that helped inspire some of the direction in this mix, which was great. Wonderful blending of sources and ace production. Very fun, great mix guys!
  15. Happy Chimpaday!!! Bananas all around!
  16. Almost too damn smooth, dude. I feel pretty laid back and cool just listening to this. This is the perfect mood setter for a club or bar or just any kind of relaxing area with a bit of a pulse. Not bad.
  17. Sounds very deliberate and almost assembly line-like at times, which does create a pretty sweet military atmosphere. Perfect for the Army Men. I'm also a fan of the shouts that show up right at the end.
  18. Oh this beat is freaking hot! Fast-paced psytrance to just get the blood pumping really does the trick. Very nice ReMix, I'm really NutS over this one.
  19. This is beautiful man. Seriously, that piano and the guitar as well as the other instruments were fine on their own, but then Dale's voice comes in and just blows everything out of the water. While having one verse at the end kinda makes me wish he just went ahead and at least started a little earlier because it makes you want a little more, it's nice for a replay effect when you don't see it coming.
  20. Drop Mt. Koltz in the middle of Spain and it'd be perfect. The "Uno, Dos, Tres, Four!" thing is going to be a running gag around here, I can tell. Honestly, this has the perfect spanish flavor and sounds gorgeous. Flamenco at some of it's best, especially when the vocals popped in near the end and onwards past that. I'm really feeling this, especially the ending. So good.
  21. This was one of my favorites in that compo and I'm glad it passed the panel. Funky, groovy, whatever you want to call it, this is one hell of a sexy ReMix. Nice work with the imagery in your description and the intruder detected clip.
  22. I love classic OCR for this very reason. I actually like this with all the scratches, seeing as scratches has become a fun novelty to play with. Sounds like the soul of the 90's ghetto scene, and I can't help but crack a smirk at this.
