  1. I think this would be pretty cool. The Workshop has a lot of potential to become a bigger thing than it is right now, hopefully with more users participating.
  2. I'm glad to see some Paper Mario love here. Those games have great music. People should support the Paper Mario project that's sitting on the projects forum by the way, we deserve more Paper Mario mixes
  3. This is very cool We don't see that many western style remixes!
  4. I'm sorry for disappearing from this thread after being eliminated! DKC:TF has absorved my free time I'll try to vote this week
  5. Can I claim Mega Man Soccer? Haven't set on a particular song because it has a lot of good songs... Probably gonna mix a few sources together
  6. This thread is lacking more praise to DKCTF's soundtrack! Here are some of my favourites so far: I'm playing World 5 right now so I'm probably missing some masterpieces. I also didn't link the tracks that remix classic DKC songs, even if some of these have nods to classic DKC music.
  7. Time Trials and replays are great. However, I like trying to find my own route for shiny gold before looking at the top 8.
  8. DKCTF is amazing. I've been addicted to it since last friday. The music is awesome too.
  9. Yeah, I really struggled with the kick sample from the kit I picked. I'll look into that 1:28 thing @Nase: The name was Mirby's suggestion so all complaints are forwarded to her
  10. I haven't posted anything here in a while! This is the track I made for round 2 of SZRC, mixing Metropolis Zone from Sonic 2 and Sky Road Zone 2 from Sonic Lost World. I wanted to make something funky! Link: https://soundcloud.com/jnwake/sonic-2-sonic-lost-world-sonic I want to polish the mixing and fix some mistakes (there's a mistimed note near the end ) so I'm interested in your feedback!
  11. Oh well, it was a fun first participation in SZRC
  12. This is interesting. ANY town theme counts or are you looking for games that have the same music for every town? Also, do you count Super Paper Mario as a RPG?
  13. Ha! You finally went with it! I'll see if I can grab something
  14. Hahaha I'm glad you liked it. Seems you didn't have much faith in me though Hahaha I shouldn't disappoint you but the guitar solo is actually a synth solo, played by me!
  15. Happy birthday! I apparently will gift you a pass to SZRC's next round
  16. I voted! Listened to the tracks many times to make my decisions. On wildfire vs halc I went with halc mainly because the arrangement was more varied. Both songs are pretty good, fun arrangements and nice vocals. wildfire shows a lot of progression in the vocal production from Round 1 too! On Hakstock vs Amphibious I went with Amphibious because I could recognize the sources more easily. Again, both songs are very good, Hak's is very energetic and has nice playing with a few rough spots. Amph's song has an amazing groove, very clean production and some lovely chords. The guitar also adds a nice touch. On me vs SuperiorX I went with me because I'm an ass Nah, honestly, I felt my source usage was more balanced between the two songs. Production in Superior's song is clearer and sharper but I have a hard time finding the Sky Road usage, while Metropolis is very evident. I also loved Sir Nuts' track. Nice production and vibe!
  17. Holy shit at that thread haha. The amount of hate is a curious mix of hilarious and sad...
  18. I'll post decent reviews later but damn songs are very very good this round. I'm totally in love with Amphibious' one, the rap battle is hilarious and I dig the vibe in Superior's and Nuts' songs! Really nice
  19. Haha me and SuperiorX picked similar styles (even our basses sound similar!). I forgot to mention, the name of my song was Mirby's idea, so I have to credit her!
  20. I submitted mine. God I hate uploading WAVs, my internet even died in the middle of uploading once. I hope you enjoy my song, it's very different from my Round 1 one
  21. I'm working on it! It's sounding pretty cool. Looking forward to your entry Superior
  22. Quick reviews: Tuberz - Nice intro! I love the mood of the song. Mixing is a bit muddy, the rhytm guitar is a bit drowned and many of the synths seem to have way too many high frequencies. Arrangement is very very cool though, so the production is forbidden Nice guitar playing too, even if the lead guitar is maybe a bit too wet. Sterling - I don't feel the bass notes fit with the synth melodies much in this song. You should try to add percussion to this and keep practicing! Garpocalypse - Very cool! It sounds so 80's. Production is nice, I like how the drums sound. Synths are a bit weaker though (the bass could be punchier for example), they sound like not very good presets. The small guitar notes you throw everywhere are very cool. Arrangement is cool though it feels a tad too long. Dusk - Wow, orchestra! I don't feel Sonic music is the best kind of music to do orchestra but you did a good job here. The main horn/flute/whatever it is sounds fake and thin... Strings sound good though. Piano sounds strange, the delay and processing aren't natural sounding for an orchestra song. Still, it's a nice song! GuitahHeroe - It might be just me, but that snare sound kills me Otherwise, the soundscape is cool, the synth strings are nice. Section beggining at 1:52 is particularly good! I have to say I don't feel Death Egg is that well implemented into the song, feels a bit medley-ish. Eino - Something is odd with the mixing here, sounds like if I had placed a radio inside a box or something like that Snare sounds very mechanical too... On the positive things, the arrangement is cool. I like the sound of the guitars and the bass and the mood of the song. therex - Intro synth made me think of Proto Man haha. I don't really like the "rhytm" synth you picked, it is very rough. Leads are a bit soft in volume in the intro too. Holy crap the bass is loud in the break. I believe this isn't really my style of music but the arrangement is interesting at least. BrothaDom - I don't feel the piano and synth in the intro blend well. Voice is cool but it sounds like you were bored while recording! I have to agree with the criticism of the backing, it sadly ruins the song since it is very chaotic (in a negative way). shaggy - Sax intro <3 I didn't feel the samples hurt this song, it sounds good to me. Can't really criticize much, other than say that I didn't like all the chord progressions (for example, the one at 0:13). Flexstyle - This is very solid. I don't really feel like I should criticize the production in this but the vocal processing didn't sound good to me in the lower notes. It's a small nitpick though, since this is very nicely produced. urdailywater - Nice kick sound! At times the soundscape feels a bit scarce but the arrangement is do damn stylish that it doesn't matter Nice job. BlackPanther - Smooth intro. Sadly, this is unfinished and has like no interaction between the sources... Phonetic Hero - Nice! Very powerful sounding. Those orchestra hits make me think of Mega Man X (maybe the style just reminds me of your songs for the Maverick Competition). Chernabogue - Cool sounding intro. Percussion is a bit too loud though. I like the blend of the bass with the orchestral elements. Nice song! Arceace - Nice buildup intro. Synth work is very good and the song is energetic. Good job Nice songs this round! Now... To finish my song!
