OCR02616 - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney "spirit of law"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Wow! Now that is a pretty sweet courtroom-styled rap if I ever heard one! The light jazz tone feels so right underneath the lyrics and is really smooth with the beat. I love it when the Ace Attorney games get some love, especially like this. Nice work from Melody and Det. Tuesday. -
Great to see this finally hit the front page. So many props for getting the idea of combining the backing elements of the SNES waterfall with the tune of the GBA waterfall. That was utterly brilliant. I'm being completely honest when I say that this stands right up there with all the other ReMixes from this amazing album. You said the dance beat was a joke at first, but to me, that was part of the charm of this mix. Beautiful music with a great beat makes this my favorite off of disk five.

OCR02595 - Super Mario Galaxy "Little Glockenspiel"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Don't know why, but whenever I see the word glockenspiel, I chuckle. Not sure why, just entertains me. Kinda like this ReMix does. I like Guifrog description of a romantic Venice during a full-moon night, and I can safely say that it does have effect. So awesome to hear a bit of Italian flavor and beauty thrown in the arrangement of this ReMix. -
OCR02611 - Kirby's Adventure "Welcome to Rainbow Resort"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Sounds like the kind of thing you'd hear while walking through a resort garden, which I guess fits with Rainbow Resort. Very pleasant and easy-going, and nice when you need something a bit classy in your day. -
OCR02606 - Sonic & Knuckles "Funky Side Up"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Pretty clear here that you don't need the title to tell you how funky this is. I adore the middle breakdown section with all my heart because it just sounds so damn slick. That slap bass is crazy and like DarkeSword pointed out, it sounds like it would fit right in at home in a Final Fight area (hell, most of this ReMix would). Well done, fella! -
OCR02609 - Street Fighter II "Shoto Spirits"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
2 Akumas, Gouken, Ken, Ryu, Sakura, a tiny bit of Dan and three JSJ's with one of them being THE DUKE!? Damn, you guys don't mess around. In a way, I'm kinda glad someone finally put the Hado folks themes together in one kick-ass ReMix. And you said "Ryu" right! The section after 3:13 sounded weird, but cool at the same time. I don't think I can really nitpick anything with this ReMix. So recommended. -
OCR02588 - Wild Arms "The Traveling Band's Last Song"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Combination of acoustic and electric guitar was an amazing choice for this. I wouldn't mind hearing more mellow meets rough ReMixes like this one, especially if it's as powerful and upbeat as this is. Switching back to full acoustic for a few seconds was great for the ending. -
So I can tell that 2013 is going to be the year of interesting ReMix titles, but the real story is that finally Wily's music from MM3 gets some love in the form of this continually building show of rock! Good and hard, and to be honest, it really did sound like that solo had a bit of Satch in it, even if a little. Very clean sounding, too. Not bad at all.

Happy Emuday!

Happy belated birthday Flexstyle!

Wow, this is pretty cool. Deia's vocals go very well with the traveling bard/medieval tavern feel that the song was striving for, and OA joining was nice to hear as well. Nice intro and outro with the natural gathering sounds as well. It hit every mark it went for as far as I'm concerned and is certainly one of my favorite songs off the Unsung album.

OCR02585 - Lightening Force "OMAKE 8 (Type-R)"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Ooooh, now this very groovey! Totally fits the smooth feeling I've been having all day. Sounds crisp and clear. This is "cruising down the road at night" music. -
OCR02584 - Pilotwings "Liftoff (Get High)"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Chill and light. I could very well see myself enjoying this on a trip high in the sky. Nice crunchy sounds in this ReMix. -
Happy Birthday!!

OCR02462 - Mega Man X "Stealth Lizard"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Damn, you really have to play this loud. It just demands it. I really love how Vurez is able to combine hard rock with ethnic sounds in many of his ReMiexs. The breakdown at 1:45 on up really is a sweet change up, but for me personally, the part I fell in love with was from 2:35 to the end. Very strong ReMix of Sting Chameleon! -
OCR02596 - Mega Man X2 "Dusty Dune Devil"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Another one of my favorite ReMixes off the Maverick Rising album. I particularly love the use of electric guitars and the Celtic flavor working together to make such a devilishly good treat, along with a dash of some Middle Eastern melody. Definitely an improvement on the original, so props! -
Happy birthday!!!!!

OCR02581 - King of Fighters XIII "One-Hit KO (Bye Esaka Mix)"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Dude, I'm getting some serious genesis/saturn/firepro vibes from this ReMix. So groovy and upbeat, and that section around 2:20-2:35, wow! Great work here, Willrock! -
OCR02586 - Mega Man 1 & 9 "Pull the Plug"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Willrock and Megaman, that's a great combo. I really liked hearing the little bits of Elecman peek around Plug Man's theme. Those electric sounding growls in the intro and ending were pretty awesome. Hell of a ReMix and compo entry you have here Willrock. -
OCR02587 - Super Mario Bros. "Dirty Coins"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Oh man, when that beat hit at 1:38, it damn near got me moving. The sound effects give this ReMix the Super Mario charm, no doubt. It's nice to see bLiNd try his hand at something that seems to have exploded recently, and do a good job of it. Probably one of the better dubstep ReMixes I've heard recently on OCR, especially because of that catchy beat woven in with the dubstep. -
Congratulations Stevo and Val!!! Enjoy the romance and love!!!

OCR02580 - Persona 4 Arena "Little Arena"
Crulex replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is pretty damn catchy. I just love the lounge vibe of this track, which makes it relaxing and energetic at the same time. Crazy combos here, man. That sax, fakey or not, is a great addition to the second half of this ReMix. Bit-sized, but very fun to listen to.
