OCR00921 - Deadly Towers "Quest for Conan"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Okay Mazedude, lets start! I Love the happy-vibe that most of this puts off..its AWESOME. Though, wayy to short. its like.. the same thing 3 times over, and a little break.. and blea..im done. Also, the main Rennisance section is The Highlight of the piece, showing off some mad skills. But .. don't be afraid to mix it up the 2nd time around. Everyone -> Deffinitely worth the download, the vibe it puts off is excellent, and the clarity of every instrument shines through so well it .. brings a tear to my eye. Just to damn short. 0:01 - Whoa! nice chord here.. it kinda makes you stop and listen, i like that. 0:17 - OMG im at the rennisance!(SP?) and there are elves and Fairies and dwarf's oh my! .. Cool work 0:43 - I like the work here.. 1:10 - I love this right here, It really comes together. 1:23 - OMG! more Rennisance stuff! ahem.. DONT be afraid to mix this stuff up here. While this sounds absolutely Brilliant.. And believe me, it does. anyone who tells you otherwise is evil. But DONT be afraid to mix it up man! .. You could do SO much more with it. As my choir teacher always said.. YOU NEVER do the same thing twice exactly the same.. soo dont! ..mix it up, change something, Push it a bit more, make an addition, do something. Why do people play/sing the same things over and over again? for impact on the listener. so .. uh .. yea.. but i really liked it. -
OCR00920 - Legend of Kyrandia "Kyrandia Medley"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Okay Guys.. lets start I Do like what you were striving to do, and they're are a lot of parts that shine during this mix, but i think there are a lot of Flaws aswell. Volume and Panning seems the biggest issue to me, but other then that minor complain't, I DO think its worth the listen. Especially if your a fan of the original. 0:01 - hm..Im not sure about the quality right here at the beginning.. but .. it seems nice.. the incoming Strings REALLY help this out.. sounds a lot better. 0:29 - HELLO! pretty big switch here.. The Guitar work is Fabulicious. 1:06 - Needs more. The Backings work okay.. but the Guitar needs more Support i think, the drumbeat sounds pretty cool, but a bit soft in comparisin with the rest. 2:10 - That guitar lead is getting a bit boring by this point, even with all the backround. 2:40 - What are you building up too? 2:51 - Hm.. not sure if i like that..Im not a fan of the Drumbeat for this point..but .. after everything Comes in..it sounds much better. 3:23 -whoa.. Guitar is a bit.. Loud, and drowns out a lot of other stuff, i can tell you wanted it to take center stage, but.. tone it down a bit.. 4:12 - I love the backround at this point, What i dont like is how the guitar is panned directly infront of everything, it pulls your attention to it, while that can be a good thing, i DONT like it here.. They don't balance with each other, and they Could balance. needs a bit more volume and panning work, i think. -
OCR00919 - Bahamut Lagoon "Dragons of Paradise"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Hey Furry... Cool stuff man, Diggin' the piano here, there are some slight volume issues, but it does little to detract from this excellent piece of work, keep it up! 0:01 - Cool Intro.. Diggin' the vibe here..waiting for it to pick up... 0:25 - LOVE the piano work here...the backround also, gives it a MUCH deeper feel, very good work. 0:54 - Cool work here, but the piano is getting drowned out just a bit too much here. the strings seem to overpower it a bit, also, that synth sound is odd, but certainly a hint of whats to come 1:25 - I like the beat here.. But the lead is being drowned out, which is BAD. never drown out hte lead. 1:50 - Cool addition with the bass line, But.. it feels kind've empty..a lot of stuff kinda thrown in.. but it Does work. the piano holds it together loosely. The drum changes are too sudden here. 2:30 - Don't be afraid to mix this part up, because it needs to be, take some instruments higher.. some lower.. you could've pushed that fartehr then you did. 3:07 - Beautiful Piano Outro - Delicious 3:18 - Dig the chords used here. The Echo is also of note. Cool Ending aswell. The synth's ending up being a Good addition, i think. they were used very well. -
OCR00918 - Radical Dreamers "Interdit"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Hello! lets start.. If you dig jazz in any sort of the fashion, Grab this now. I wish i was familiar with the original so i could here the similarities, im sure it'd be even better. Either way, Totally Jazzy, and totally kick ass. 0:01 - Mm.. Coool intro..don't quite know what to expect at this point..cool work though.. 0:35 - Hellloo Jazz. Do you know Jazz theory? Certainly sounds like it. the backround sounds Very good.. 1:03 - Sweet work man. The Drumbeat is almost too good. 1:29 - Love those Slides...Sweet work. 1:50 - Helllooo Jazz.. once again..VERY jazz. 2:11 - Cool Work..Increadibly Jazzy, Which i adore. not many could pull this off. 2:39 - The beat is constantly changing aswell, its also worth to note the backround sounds provide such clean harmony its almost impossible to deny the goodness. 3:14 - Also of note is the backround work, right here it SHINES. Excelllentae. 3:30 - Love the harmonies that are used here.. Those Chords are Indeed quite Jazz. most of them 4:06 - Delicious Work here...I love how full blown its gotten.. More Jazz Chords... Im Diggin' it totally. 4:58 - Excellent fadeout here.. just sort've makes you sit back..reflect...and say "wow" ..as most jazz does at some point..Terriffico! 5:42 - Jeez.. a bit long eh? .. Its entirely worth it. I don't think i can find anything to complain about here. -
hello Marc Star! Is this your first mix? .. its amazing, if so -> congradulate yourself. if not? congradulate yourself, well done piece, infact, VERY well done. 0:01 - Mmm.. Delicious Intro. Awesome work here. 0:15 - Sweet Guitar work..Drum beat is a good complement, though a bit on the Light side of things, i think it fits VERY well. 0:35 - That a flute? of sorts.. Im diggin the backround melody that complements it. this your first? very promising. 1:07 - Don't like that low sound. Destroy's the mood i think.. I ADORE the happy-vibe that your putting out, those high synth-type strings are beautiful. 1:36 - Cool Drum work, And that low bass sound isn't nearly as annoying as it once was. 1:54 - Cool Work here.. Again, just Awesome. 2:15 - Sorry, but i Hate that damn fadeout, it doesnt fit this at all.. Id prefer something else.

OCR00916 - Chrono Trigger "Ruined Landscape"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Okay Mr. Drop.. Pretty good mix, I dig what you were doing, there were a few problems.. but.. Bottom Line? i really have heard better out of you. Ive heard you say you worked hard on this, so .. im not saying this is bad, infact i like it, I just think.. er.. I KNOW your capable of producing better. The mix stays static a bit too much, There are a few parts that i don't dig because they don't complement each other, and that pop drum sound needs to be replaced. 0:01 - I love the static in the intro.. and how it fades out. 0:18 - Cool instrument here. 0:30 - Cool Beat. As should be expected of Beatdrop.. 0:55 - That lead is kinda getting boring by this point Beatdrop, i wish you'd mix it up a bit by this point. 1:20 - Cool stuff here.. I think that beat needs to be a bit..Deeper. 1:43 - Im not sure if i like this. I don't think it complements.. i think it contradicts, which doesnt let it flow, I mean, i can tell it sort've works, but i really think something could sound better. 2:15 - That same line is also keeping it kinda boring by this point, but you DO remedy it up soon. 2:49 - The highlight of The mix beat, Excellent work stuff here. but i think i hear a flat note at 2:55-2:56.. maybe its just my ears. also that sound thats the drum beat at 2:29 - the "pop" sound, i don't like, needs to be deeper. and then you bring it in even harder at 2:48. 3:08 - I like the intro, its quick, and actually does its job rather well. -
Hi McVaffe! Pretty damn slick mix here, Though not my favorite Genre - I found this more then enjoyable, Deffinitely a keeper - on top of that -> You Remixed Red Alarm, Bonus Points! 0:01 - I love the synth techno feel right here..the bassline sounds cool too.. does a great job of getting you in the mood. 0:21 - Love the selection of instruments here.. 0:30 - Cool work, but .. I think the drumbeat could be just a tiny tiny bit louder. Also, Though i know how the original sounds, and the notes your using Are for the original, i don't like how they fit here. but it only lasts for about 7 seconds 0:48 - More Cool Snyth-y work here.. love it. 1:00 - The lead fits really well, I love how its used.. and you do a great job of keeping it interesting, That i like 1:22 - Though.. I can't quite put my finger on it, while this mix is really sweet, Im constantly waiting for you to just let everything go and push at it even more..but .. for some reason i don't see that happening. 2:00 - Not my favorite part here, but it sounds pretty good, and it works. 2:30 - Sweet part here.. feels like your building up to something, i Hope so. 2:52 - Cool Synth intro..more building..Long song. 3:20 - No climax - but .. i love this part right here..Almost forces you to dance to it in some respect. 4:03 - On my tastes, that simple, synth lead has gotten boring by this point i wish you would've mixed it up a bit more, i think this is the 3rd, maybe even 4th time its played. although the backround is always Dynamic and changes every time, but you gotta mix the lead up too! 4:48 - Cool change, but Id still like to see More. Your still not pulling out all the stops that i think you could've. 5:05 - I dislike the ending here..its just a simple fadeout.. while I think it works, Mcvaffe, i know your capable of more

OCR00913 - Castlevania II "Dark Madness Resurrection"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Hey Goat.. Beautiful Stuff here, i dig the guitar work. A Few very minor things a don't like, but overall, an excellent piece of work, my Detailed review follows Worth the Download everyone, Especially fans of Castlevania music.. as everyone is. 0:01 - Excellent work here.. I love the introduction..Sounds Reallly good. 0:46 - Don't know about this part, but the title reaffirms my faith, this part fits it rather nicely.. The organ sounds Really good. 1:20 - Sounds like it needs something more in through this part.. I love what im hearing..i just think something else could push it even farther. 2:11 - Cool guitar work. 2:36 - Really Cool guitar work. 3:01 - Goood stuff here, A Very professional quality surrounding the entire thing, I love this part. 3:20 - A Few Shakey things here, but you quickly recover. 3:45 - Don't like the sudden change, It sounds like you just threw it right on top. Id prefer a nice ease out, or a Sudden drop..then this to kick back in slow and mellow-like..but its like an instant transversion which i don't like ..(is Transversion a word?) -
I was bored today, so .. you all inspired me to do this .. great. oh..hopefully you can see it so i don't look like an idiot..

OCR00897 - Ogre Battle "Zenobia's Grave: A Champion Has Risen"
k-wix replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Yea, wow.. Thanks for the words everyone, and Israfel DID do quite a bit of touch-up work : ) he's the man. and without him, I dont think this mix would have made it : \, so, as he said, give credit where its due. -
OCR00863 - Chrono Trigger "Memories Lost in Time"
k-wix replied to DarkCecil13's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Excellent work by Gray here.. Im a fan of the slow mellow pace this puts off, its really nice to simply relax too.. also, the tones were chosen carefully, and you can tell, with each chord brings a subtle new change, some lighter, some darker, i really like that. the drumbeat flows, slowly, very slowly, right along with the song, which i like. Deffinately a keeper, especially for a fan of CT because Schala's elements are embedded so well. Beautiful.
