  1. Hi everyone =D

    Ok this is not a Remix :-P.  Remixes are not my thing but maybe it's still valid to post this here since it's a musical tribute to a videogame song =D

    This is a completed project but you can still give feedback (plase do it). I'm a huge fan of hard rock, so I came up with this idea for a Rock Cover of Gorgeous Musical Castle, the heaviest song in the game. that song it's just awesome, I hope you like it.

    Greetings from México. :grin:

     

  2. Hi everyone =D

     

    I know this is not an actual remix or maybe it is, I dont know, but it's a musical rendition to that great classic from the SNES. I loved this level from the very instant i got in it, the atmosphere, the colors, the sounds and the music. So as part of my "Dia de Muertos" Specials I decided to give tribute to this great game and this awesome song.

     

    Everything was programmed and recorded by me. I hope you guys like it. Greetings from México =)

     

  3. Thank you Geoffrey (n.n) /

     

    evktalo: thanks dude. I knew I had to cover the song like this when I listened to the chorus carefully. then I thought; ohh that sounds like something that could be done with the tapping technique. The song was kind of easy do adapt to this style like if it was meant to be played like that, I don't know :dstrbd:  the adaptation process flowed really well...

     

    MrKyle: Thanks n.n. jeje yea you're right I mean there are many ways to do it as complex as you want  :razz:  I kept it simple. well there's some counterpoint at the end jeje :oops:

  4. wicked child in time!!

    awesome!

    2 criticisms: i thought the legendary burn arpeggios could've been hitting harder at a different point in time. they were cool to hear but their introduction didn't seem as natural as in the original. but that's setting the bar rather high, right? :)

    the organ could've had more rocks and dirt in it (in german we say "schweineorgel", pig organ). it has a lot to do with the leslie speaker just goin apeshit. listening on cheap speakers so i can't say for sure, but it appears to be lacking that. it's a good sound choice for 4:35+, anyway.

    relistened to burn now, and yeah, the schweineorgel part before the sacral melodic part is what it's all about to me. i was also amazed how that one sounds in the original(4:24)... synthesizer and piano. freaking cool. forgot about that.

    one more thing, i think you could've just played the main riff at some point. why be subtle about it at this point, hehe.

    anyway, freaking nice mashup, i love this kind of venture. rock onnn

    Wow thank you so much for your comment.

    Yep I know exactly what you mean regarding the guitar arpeggios jeje. It was difficult because Wicked Child is in A major and Burn is in G major so I had to pitch wicked child one tone down. The original idea was to play the same guitar solo but there was a conflict in the chord progression I didn't find a good arrangement to introduce the complete burn solo... so this one was the more natural way I could come up with. I have much to learn :mrgreen:

    I agree with you about the organ part. I don't play keyboards so I made the solo on my guitar and translated it to the organ using a VST plugin called B4 by Native Instruments. It was really difficult to find the right sound. Most of the time I had no idea what was I doing :< ... I tried the "Lord" and "Purple" presets but they didn't work :-( they sounded like accordions so I decided to go for a gothic kind of organ and clean it up for the solo.

    Jon Lord was a genius there is a lot of things going on in the sacral melodic part, 3 organs 1 piano and 1 synth making that chorus in the back. It was crazy :banghead: ... I love that guy.

    Thanks again and yea try to listen to it with headphones. Before uploading my cover I tested it on cheap laptop/tv speakers too and yea it sounds a bit awful :mrgreen:

    Greetings.

    PS: I see you have a Space Station Sillicon Valley remix. Man I love that game and it's soundtrack awesome job!!.

  5. Hi everyone. :mrgreen:

    Here's my new cover, wicked child, with a little surprise for all Deep Purple fans out there :wink:

    Please dont hesitate to post your suggestions, comments or anything.

    Here is the video version:

    But since youtube's compression sword is legendary. Here's the HQ mp3

    Greetings from México :mrgreen:

  6. This is pretty cool. I wish all the boss battles transitioned smoothly. I guess that's not really expected of medleys. Regardless, I enjoyed it. Thank you for putting the Ninja Gaiden boss theme in this, that was my favorite part. Especially Symphony of the Night.

    Thanks for comment :mrgreen: .. I almost left Castlevania out of the project, but soon I realized that Castlevania had to be there, also I needed a good link to Ridley's theme, Festival of Servants has many thing in common with Ridley's theme so it was easy to link them...:grin:

    Sorry for my bad english I'm mexican XD

  7. Hi everyone. Well this time I decided to make a Rock Medley based on Boss Fight themes. The theme selection is not a big deal, but every song put my skills to the test, they have a high technical level. Chrono trigger was really demanding, along with Zelda a link to the past, ninja gaiden, every song was a challenge.

    Well here it is hope you enjoy it. :mrgreen:

  8. Thank you FM :mrgreen: ... I'm glad you noticed it. I gew up with whitesnake, rainbow, deep purple, foreigner, also steve vai and joe satriani, jeje...

    Hey Uffe!! thanks for the comment, form the beginning I knew I had to put the Twilight princess version on this, it is beautiful, one of my favorite parts of the game, chasing Rutela to the graveyard... and her final message to her son :| ... I just hope it wasn't unespected in a uncomfortable way.

    And thanks for the tip, now all my guitar covers are available for download. If you guys are interested. :razz:

    Thank you!

  9. Great Job! I loved the original melody and you made a good work with your guitar adaptation. And impressive performance :D

    Just a little point, I think the break at 2'56 is too marked. I really felt the mix ended at this time.

    Yea the break at 2'56... jejeje. that part is highly influenced by Steve Vai and many other guitarrits maybe it's a bit long =P

    Thanks for your comment dude, I appreciate it. I think they are important, the post may have 200 views but if nobody comments it's like ok nobody listened to this. XD thanks you very much for listening. greetings from méxico =D

  10. It seems like the lead guitar was recorded entirely in mono. It's quite narrow all throughout the entire track. There's also some noticeable clipping at 0:46, 1:01, 1:03, 1:06, and 1:09. Watch your peaks.

    Other than that, good cover.

    You are totally right. I'm having problems with that, this is something new for me, sometimes I concentrate all my attention making the drums, chords, bass, solos and I miss other things, it's a lot of work, I will improve that in future covers

  11. Thanks Andrak3 =D ... you can also follow me on my youtube channel, where you can watch the video versions of my covers... well if you're interested =P

    VenomBallistics thanks for your comment. I like when people leave comments. It gives me that feeling, you know, that there is someone actually listening to this XD jeje...
