  1. Sometimes it's hard for me to get into ambient mixes because my mind tends to wander, but this is very well done. Creepy, dark, ominous, it just fits the scene it came from. The build-up works best for ReMixes like this one. Very nice take on Bomb Ring.
  2. I should have known better, but I still wasn't quite expecting that. I like these nice surprises. Very cool mixing Mt. DeDeDe and Wicked Child together in a cool little chip tune package. Good beat, great arrangement, very good ReMix indeed.
  3. Again, I kinda have to echo the others here, this is great music to have on when you are doing something else and what to keep your ears busy. It's very entertaining and while I don't think I could sit still and just listen to it for as long as it is, it's perfect for working or studying and such.
  4. Alright, so this was a pretty nice take on the source and I did enjoy it as a good song to listen to in the background (that's about how I feel about a lot of easy-going acoustic tracks. Nice to chill to). The vocals sound good to me, don't get me wrong, but at some points it was hard to hear. Other than that, really nice ReMix with great instrumentation choices.
  5. I would love to know what it is about Castlevania songs that lend themselves so well to these kinds of funky, groovy ReMixes. But forget the details, as DJP pointed out, this does remind me a bit of Morse's work with the 'Vania stuff, but this sounds amazing. Smooth, with a bit of a dark creeping vibe to it, and throw in the spanish sounding guitar for good measure. A great days work for the symphony of the night.
  6. First things first, the vocals sounded heavenly. The vibrato kind of makes it hard to hear at some points, that's minor to me. This has an easy, haunting and "elegance in darkness" kind of feels to it, and it really did the trick. Nice work.
  7. Badass! This is the kind of rocking ReMix that I can listen to all day long and never get the least bit tired of. I keep wanting to say that 1:30 to 2:00 reminds me of another ReMix I really like, but as usual my memory fails me at the moment. The guitars playing is superb, the drums are good enough for me, and all around, it just kicks a lot of ass. This is the kind of mix that demands to be played loud, and it's better that way. Best mix I've heard in a while.
  8. This one took me a little while to get into because of the repetition, but there isn't a whole hell of a lot you can do all things considering and without the subtle variations, I think it could have been a lot worse. Taking a source like this one and making a ReMix out of it that is decent like this one is a nice little feat. This particular one isn't the kind of thing I'll have on repeat, but it was good and it was nice first showing. Keep it going.
  9. Ah, latin piano! The first slower half was nice and easy to listen to, making it a top tapper for sure, but then when it picked up, I could feel the energy just take off! Going from classy to party in one fell swoop, that's genius for a guy like me. Perfect for groovin' with that latin vibe.
  10. I think the best thing here for me is that there is enough variation over the course of the ReMix while keeping the melody going. I really enjoyed the piano-over-the-trance parts and while this is not mind blowing, it has a solid base and really shines as a debut. Good work, man, looking forward to more.
  11. Added a last minute like for ya! Awesome pieces of work.
  12. This for me. I don't ever cry at anything really, but this one and a few other games got me to lump up a little.
  13. Deia is extremely cool and an amazing ReMixer. Seriously, one of the coolest people on OCR.
  14. Great to hear that things are reaching the final stretch, fellas!
  15. Oh sweet jesus...... Anyway, best of luck guys, I'll be looking forward to this one.
  16. Wow. You know, when ReMixes are good, I don't really care how many of a certain tune there are. This chill urban mix is very cool and to combine some of that acoustic guitar with Halc's style made this melody even better. Last Schala? Nah. One of the better ones, though? That is for damn sure.
  17. Man, if Sitenno gets done, I will hit the roof in excitement!
  18. Holy crap! I saw drum and bass in the write up, and I wasn't expecting something beautiful like this. The vocals are wonderful, Ashleigh has an amazing voice. I really liked the use of effects on the vocals about halfway in, and of course bLiNd's mixing is masterful. Very nice.
