  1. There's really no other way to put it other than to say that it does sound like a musical journey through the oceans of DK Isle. Subtle and not so subtle changes throughout keep the mix interesting and doesn't feel like it lasts too long. Not bad at all.
  2. I really liked how this ReMix started with the melody mostly true to the source and then continue to expand and morph as the mix went on, feeling more and more unique. Solid trance mix with a great beat.
  3. Four and a half hours for something this incredible is unbelievable. Really enjoyed the inclusion of the prelude here, and the entire mix is a treat for chippy mix lovers. Highly recommended.
  4. Polka is almost always fun, but inject it with sugary edm and you get a sweet mix that can brighten the day. Very fun, love it.
  5. Very good showcase of the marimba and the different feelings they can invoke from minor to happier stuff. Smoother transitions would have to be my only nitpick, but overall not bad at all.
  6. MkVaff has had a lot of great pulse ReMixes hit in the last few months and this is another banger. Awesome to see another Vega mix get a jolt of energy like this.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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!
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. 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.
  25. 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.
