OCR02064 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2 "Chemixtrixx"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I know I already posted a review for this, but that was over 12 years ago and I wanted to repay my respects to a true OCRemix classic. This remix has it all, crisp production, hard hitting kick and bass, and an excellent rendition of the source material. Excellent, very excellent. ? -
OCR01954 - Cheetahmen II "C.H.E.E.T.A.H."
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I came here partially because of the source, but also because I wanted to see more remixes done by PrototypeReactor after hearing their amazing Skies of Arcadia remix. That slap bass is incredible. The production on this is incredibly clean. This is an absolute bop for sure! -
OCR03837 - Skies of Arcadia "Black Moon"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
When I heard that first drop at 1:05, I became SO stoked. For a split second I thought I was listening to my spotify playlist rather than OCR! That whole section from 1:05 to 1:40 was simply incredible. Super ear candy that fizzles the brain with that amazing bass/synth work. Excellent job on this remix! -
OCR03838 - Skies of Arcadia "Hearth and Home"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This was fantastic. Very expressive and full of emotion! I probably enjoyed the intro the most, those strings were dancin! Great remix overall, I enjoyed it! :) -
OCR03839 - Metroid Prime "This Binary Drifter"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I definitely would not have expected this to be a DDRkirby remix. I really enjoyed that low frequency movement happening starting around 5:20, that kind of warbling energy was really cool. Overall this was a fun audio treat to listen to, very well produced. Good job on this! -
OCR03841 - Skies of Arcadia "Legend in the Making"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Boy those drums are going nuts! The amount of energy packed into this remix is definitely intense! The melodies shine through nicely. Overall this is a very good remix, well done! :) -
OCR03842 - Skies of Arcadia "Victory! Glory! Profit?"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I am always a fan of seeing some good wub wubs and electronic grittiness in OCremixes! That section starting around 2:40 was especially cool. ? Excellent job on this remix! -
OCR03843 - Skies of Arcadia "Rusted Hopes"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This definitely screams town music! This remix has a very light and semi-nostalgic feeling. It encapsulates the feeling of a journey's beginning or perhaps a long journey's end. Great job on this! :) -
OCR00777 - King's Quest V "Concerning Daventry"
CJthemusicdude replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
It is CRIMINAL that this is the only remix for King's Quest V. This was extremely lovely. It sounded very good sample wise, especially for having come out back in 2002. This is a great arrangement and remix overall, 10/10! -
OCR03844 - Skies of Arcadia "Shining Silver"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
What an adventure! That ultimate crescendo at 3:27 was incredible! Very well done, this remix was supremely good! -
OCR03845 - Skies of Arcadia "Rogue Sanctuary"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
There's something amusing about the idea of a pirate/rogue isle or sanctuary that has this very upbeat and whimsical music in the background. :D This remix is very charming and well done, it was great fun to listen to! Bravo! -
OCR03846 - Deus Ex "Holographic Projection"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Once that first kick drums KICKS (heh) in, this remix really starts to groove. This remix was insane. There were so many wild things happening that I had trouble keeping up with some of them! Definitely a baller rendition of the original source, which never struck me as too amazing of a theme (And I've reinstalled Deus Ex probably 10+ times.). Ultimately, this remix was very cool and has a steez (Style and Ease) that is all its' own. Bravo! -
OCR03850 - Half-Life 2 "Portal Storm"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Half Life 2 remix!! As much as I enjoyed the game, I slept on the soundtrack pretty hard. This remix is fantastic and really gives the original source that extra needed punch to make it impactful! I dare say this remix is better than the original. It ROCKS! ? -
OCR03851 - Sonic CD (JP) "Dream Current"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This remix sent me into a swirling world of bob and weave, ebb and flow. This definitely fits the dream aesthetic very well, a firm mood definitely was struck and musical'd well! Great job on this! -
OCR03852 - Suikoden "Man-eating Spores of Agony"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This remix gave me whiplash more than once (In a fun way.). Those transitions were wild! I could never get a true grasp on this remix, but I very much enjoyed listening to it! Great job on this remix! -
OCR03853 - Splatoon "Full Sleeve [InK Me uP]"
CJthemusicdude replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This remix was a lot of fun. The percussion was so crispity and crunchity that I got a bit hungry. Great energy going on in this remix, two thumbs up!! -
OCR03854 - Chrono Trigger "Save the Future"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I suddenly feel very compelled to save the future. This really feels like a time-travel related remix. I was happy to read that the time-related production and effects were intentional, because when I first starting hearing them I was thinking "huh, how fitting!" This was an excellent remix and it's a shame that is has no reviews... well, now it does! :D -
I absolutely adore the Contra: Hard Corps soundtrack. I am actually working on my own remix for this very source track so I am INTIMATELY familiar with this source. This was very very well done. I am a huge fan of the buzzy eurodance-style bass synth that bops through. I am absolutely grooving to this. This remix is superbly excellent.

OCR03855 - Skies of Arcadia "To the Horizon"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Holy moly this was quite the epic remix. I don't think I could properly give the proper amount of props that this deserves! The shift around the 2 minute mark was incredibly cool, I loved that minute or so of music. That slow section starting around 6 minutes in was also incredibly cool. Around 8:30 sounded like a spaghetti western duel of some kind and I am here for it. And then that voice comes in and slams dunk the ending! This was an absolute BEAST of an arrangement, full props to everyone involved, especially Jorito. I can't imagine the amount of effort it took to pull all of this together AND make it sound good! Absolutely phenomenal stuff!! -
OCR03856 - Skies of Arcadia "Better Days"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The transitions between different sections came hard and fast, it kept this remix varied and very interesting! Great instrumentation and arrangement. Great job on this remix overall! -
OCR03857 - Skies of Arcadia "The MFD"
CJthemusicdude replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I really enjoyed that part starting around 1:05. That powerful bell mixed with those rapid arps going on in the background and panning. This was very good and very cool. Excellent remix!
