I think that if you added a nautical rap (most hip hop beats have a rapper adding variety) or a second piece (maybe something from the infamous Atlantica musical or the battle theme from KH1), this would be a fine KH remix that this site desperately needs. I love Kingdom Hearts and think the games are under represented here (most the pieces in the franchise are excellent and many of them could lend themselves to a great remix).

Battle of the Champions - Orchestral Battle Music
Ronald Poe replied to Klingsor's topic in Post Your Original Music!
I think the title is definitely fitting (I can picture 2 great warriors fighting with this). The arrangement is good and the whole thing sounds like something out of a big budget action movie. At times it sounds a bit threatening but I think that just adds to the intensity of the theme. The 7/8 bars are just barely noticable. How do you go about writing good heroic themes anyway? Have a nice day ... -
OCR03666 - NieR: Automata "Beautiful Rise"
Ronald Poe replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I think you did a really good job. It's a remix more beautiful than 2B herself and has a very emotional impact. It's also quite calming. -
This is a bit late (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is already out on Blueray) sounds like it came out of the movies. Good job.

Hoboka, I immediately listened to your remix because I was wondering how a Christmas remix of a boss theme from Parasite Eve would sound. I think you pulled off that ridiculous idea well and it certainly gives a "Carol of the Bells" feel (it's the 9th track for those wondering). What'd you think of my piece, guys? Hope everyone on OCRemix has a great Christmas (Merry Christmas!).

I got a remix for the project or at least a demo. It combines "Macabre Music Box" (Grabbed by The Ghoulies) and "Humilation" (Killer Instinct) into something festive. I was thinking maybe the section with the piece could have some of the monsters wearing Christmas sweaters, lol. Here's a link for you to judge. Also sorry about the high notes.

OCR03644 - Undertale "Chaos, Cookies, and Cider"
Ronald Poe replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I've always prefered "Spider Dance" to "Hopes and Dreams" and found it to be slightly underrated (by Undertale standards at least). I think it has a ridiculously catchy and fun melody that's well done. Speaking of well done, this remix is a great DnB adaptation of the source that does it justice. -
OCR01183 - Donkey Kong Country 2 "KRool Intentions"
Ronald Poe replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is great and very creative. A real classic remix (it's from 2004) and makes good use of the sources. You could say it K. Rool's (Get it). -
PRC361 - It's A Me To End This Game (Mario Bros 2)
Ronald Poe replied to Bundeslang's topic in Competitions
I've never played Super Mario 2 but know it's a classic. I think I'm going to submit a remix for this round. If I by any chance win, I'd like a mixture of "Birth of a God" and "One Winged Angel" (Sephiorth's themes from FFVII) for next round. Good luck everyone. -
OCRI-0011 - Candy Corn II: The Sequeling
Ronald Poe replied to Liontamer's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
I personally didn't care for the first Candy Corn album (it wasn't my cup of tea). However I consider this sequel to be a vast improvement and a solid album in its own right. It gives off a spooky rave feel and is perfect for a Halloween dance party. The tracks are fun and have creative interpretations of good video game music. "S is for Snake ..." is perhaps my favorite track on this album (I'd be a little sad if it doesn't make front page) and makes great use of Metal Gear Solid samples. Overall I like it. -
1. work-in-progress FF6 - Kefka's Theme Remix
Ronald Poe replied to Shid0's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
I like it. I can see Kefka dancing to this funky and creative interpretation of his theme. I don't see any problems with it at all. Definitely should submit this when it's done ... -
The Life Death and Rebirth of Radiant Garden For Solo Piano
Ronald Poe replied to GSO's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
As a fellow Kingdom Hearts fanatic (the series provides inspiration for most of my original pieces), I'd say you did Radiant Garden/Hallow Bastion great justice (the place has always had a great field theme). I'm on board with your project but sadly more of an electronic remixer with an eccentric style than an arranger. Good luck with your KH related works and have a nice day. -
Castlevania: Cacophony of Incarnation 2018
Ronald Poe replied to MindWanderer's topic in Competitions
Sorry for messaging you my picks rather than posting them here. I still want to join the competition when you have enough competitors. For my pieces/characters, I choose the following. 1. The Creature - "Den of Worship" 2. Nathan Graves - "Awake" 3. Carmilla - "Repose of Souls" Please check for midi's of those pieces and sign me up. Have a nice day. -
Castlevania: Cacophony of Incarnation 2018
Ronald Poe replied to MindWanderer's topic in Competitions
I decided to sign up for this competition (I sent MindWanderer the message). I did well in that RPG Heroes vs. Villains competition last year (I was runner up). Anyway sorry recruiting isn't going well. -
Nice find, man. I really enjoyed it but had trouble making out "Birth of a God" (maybe it was a little subtle compared to "One Winged Angel" and especially "Let the Battle Begin"). I was hoping someone would primarily remix and harmonize "Birth of a God" and "One Winged Angel" (Why hasn't anyone here done that). This should suffice for now and was definitely cool.

I re-listened to the piece after the eval and have a few criticisms I didn't notice at first. First that shrill cat-like string (I think) synth that appears often after the first minute has got to go (it clashes with the melody and has no place in a Pluto theme). I can't see any problems with 0:50 but 1:02 definitely has some harmonic clashing going on. I still like this mix but sampling Square isn't allowed sadly. Sorry if I sound harsh but it's still pretty good.

OCR03060 - Pokémon X 'Born from the Ashes'
Ronald Poe replied to Liontamer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
A little loud in ways but definitely tasty. This is a great remix of a good Pokemon tune and has plenty of grit and DnB flavor. I can just picture Yveltal attacking to this. Good job. -
As many know, I love Kingdom Hearts and it's one of my biggest influences. I'm always all for KH remixes (there's surprisingly few of them on this site but the series has mostly great music) and am working on one myself (a Christmas remix of "Riku" theme). That being said, I thought this was pretty good and fits Pluto very well. It's mellow (the same could be said of the original theme though) and a little playful in tone. I like it and think it's interpretive enough but you may want a third non-biased (because Kingdom Hearts and its music are my favorite) opinion.

4. submitted Zelda: Spirit Tracks - 'Multi-Track Drifting'
Ronald Poe replied to Lemonectric's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Rozo's pretty much right here. It's a great electronic adaptation of the Zelda track. I can hear the original enough to call it a remix but it's different enough to stand on its own. Good job.
