  1. Absolutely not the arrangement I would expect for this theme, but it's so much fun and impressively put together all the same. Perfect fit for an October drinking party, polka at it's best.
  2. Oh yeah, this screams mountain shrine or monk temple. So much so that I'd probably use it for a DnD game for background music. As was stated, the original tune is there, it's just arranged heavily and I think that's fine for the sake of the ReMix and the vibe it's going for, but I can understand if people are looking for something more straightforward. To each their own. I love this soothing mix.
  3. Arrangement-wise, it makes me imagine Booster's Tower taken over by Smithy's gang and turned into a Snifit factory. Fun glitchy sounds galore and the trumpet was awesome.
  4. Pretty cool how some of the notes either come in a hair faster or slower or sound like they're held a bit longer to switch up the source. That's a unique way to change things up beyond just the genre. Good energy and production, this was not bad at all.
  5. Good interpretation of Ryu's stage, giving it a bit more japanese flair than it originally had, like a nice brush over. Nothing crazy but strong and focused, which is cool. Nice sfx usage as well. The fade out could have faded a little longer, but that's just me. Pretty good mix.
  6. Can never go wrong with an Insert Rupee classic filled with chippy goodness. Sugar in music form, but not overwhelming and still enjoyable. Very nice.
  7. As a huge fan of Guilty Gear and TMNT, the mix of Chipp's stage and Going Up sent me. I absolutely adore the arrangement idea of all these great ninja themes combined into a solid piece. Even the nods to Naruto, especially Sadness and Sorrow, fit perfectly into this. Gotta be my favorite debut mix from a ReMixer in a long time. Highly recommended.
  8. This is quite simply a musical celebration of everything I love about video game music, taking a lot of themes and sources most popularly ReMixed and taking the Wily stage theme on a journey through them in different genres and arrangements. Incredible mix!
  9. Man, I always love when a track manages to take a theme and weave multiple sources together so well like the multiple forests here. Lot of great cameos for a neat chippy mix indeed.
  10. It's like taking Nimbus land's theme, hyping it up on sugar and waiting until that sweet spot between the sugar rush and the crash. Not overly poppy or sluggish, just perfectly.... fluffy like a cloud. Great chiptune mix right here.
  11. The whole arrangement screams "western montage of some random bullshit happening behind a saloon while an old guy watches from a rocking chair" and I love it. The guitar twang was excellent for the feeling of the mix and that saxophone work was sweet.
  12. Remembering that the background for this fight looked like robot hell, the menacing atmosphere underneath a warping drum and bass arrangement is highly fitting. Not overly aggressive or loud, but persistent and frantic. Amazing ReMix from the album.
  13. Perfect holiday season ReMix with a solid breakdown. Small production bits aside, this was pretty cool and the small snippet of Jingle Bells fit nicely.
  14. Might be the Snowland, but this feels like a good winter time party in the Bahamas. Nice and jazzy with some cool bells and hot sax. I quite like it.
  15. This gives me the visual of going through the volcano area after the lava has cooled and you're left with a blue hued molten cave. Still a hint of red hot danger lurking around, but it's more chill, energetic and mysterious rather than heavy, aggressive and frantic. Another good ReMix from the album.
  16. Yeah, intro and outro skits gave me old comedy CD or Sandler vibes, and I didn't mind them. The actual mix was nice and fit the setting that it was trying to convey. Humorous and a decent mix all in one, pretty good I'd say.
  17. A little trim in the opening and ending sections would have done wonders, but that's just my preferences coming in. The actual meat of the ReMix was great and it was pleasant to listen to. Not bad at all.
  18. Damn, this is classy as hell and I'm kinda in love which the slight changes and articulations all over the mix. When the mix speeds up, that's when the ReMix goes over the edge from really freaking good to downright awesome.
  19. Yeah, really getting the lounge or live band bar-like diner vibes from this mix, like a neat jazzy jam just going on. Nothing really caught me off guard or anything, so all in all, a very nice mix.
  20. I have to say that I liked the slight hip hop beat combined with the saxophone the most out of this whole mix. The slight variation with the piano was cool as well. Good to see another take on the theme that changes a bit of the formula while maintaining the chill atmosphere.
  21. This is incredible. It's so relaxing and even when the main melody of the source wasn't directly out front, I could still feel the spirit of the tune. Long and chill, but super interesting throughout which is a hell of a feat. I could easily see myself falling asleep to this ReMix. Damn good stuff.
  22. Sounds like it could be the theme of running for your life while being chased down by THE ACTUAL SUN in Mario 3 during that desert level. So aggressive, probably one of my favorite Mario 3 mixes.
  23. I don't know enough about piano playing to understand when a piano sounds good beyond what I hear in the simplest way. Might be both a blessing and a curse for getting to the nitty gritty of music. But for the standard of "I know what I like", I do like this. Well done.
  24. Not a bad piece by any means, as I overall enjoyed it and especially the sax. I suppose any nitpicking I'd have is a personal preference for certain kinds of jazz and such. Still, solid mix.
  25. This is indeed very smooth and delightful. I like how Chun-li's theme can lend itself so well to either ReMixes that amp the source up or relax it back like this one. Super chill, but doesn't get boring, like a damn good light jazz mix.
