This remix was a hefty chunk of musical awesomeness! There is a lot to enjoy in this remix, and the ever-changing soundscape keeps the listener engaged. This piece definitely does a great job of painting a vivid picture of a scene or two or three. If I had to pick my favorite part, it would probably be the section around 6:00 - 7:00.

OCR04145 - Battletoads in Battlemaniacs "Toadwise"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
No reviews? Blasphemy. As soon as I heard that growly bass playing the original tune at :22 I knew I was in for a good time. I enjoyed the various blips and arps that would pan around in the background. I enjoyed the bitcrushy percussion and excellent use of sfx. Overall this was a fantastic remix! Very well done. -
OCR04146 - Pinball Dreams "Digital Illusions"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The title of this remix is very fitting, because this remix felt like an illusion, maybe even a dream! I am a fan of the percussion on this one, nice and fun reverb'd snares and I am definitely a fan of the bass and the various morphing iterations it went through. Great remix! -
OCR04626 - Sonic & Knuckles "Ghost Touch"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I debated whether or not I should comment on my own remixes, but I sought out to comment on EVERY remix and so that includes my own. I am my own worst critic anyways, so if there are any remixes that deserve a kind word from me it's... me, especially after taking such a long break of submitting OCR's (Or making music in general.) This remix isn't my best work, but it is solid. The only reference speakers I had for this remix was my car, so I think this remix sounds pretty good in a 2013 Honda Civic with factory audio equipment. I mostly just really really wanted to showcase how ridiculously good the bassline is in the original song cuz GAT dang! Side note: I take slight Umbridge in the idea that "Spooky Sandopolis" is unexpected, because if you think about the pyramid/tomb section of act 2, it is drenched in spooky. Ghosts of who/whatever was buried in those tombs slowly start appearing, harmless appearing at first, but if you don't keep hitting those light switches, your surroundings get darker...and darker... and those ghosts start to morph and eventually start to attack you. ? -
OCR04149 - Plants vs. Zombies "Cerebral"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The percussion early on definitely had me paying attention, it kind of tickles your brain in that odd way. This was expertly done and very cool. Good stuff ? -
OCR04150 - Plants vs. Zombies "Winter Is Coming"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This feels VERY fitting for plants vs zombies instrumentation and arrangement wise. Are you sure this isn't ripped straight from the soundtrack? That harpsichord was great, this remix is great! Great stuff. -

OCR04157 - Pokémon Gold Version "Past Meets Present"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This was a treat! I enjoyed the changing up the styles/instruments. Going from a filter break to light vocals and then suddenly a shredding lead guitar, etc. Fantastic stuff! :) -

OCR04162 - Golden Sun "Force of Nature"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
