The transition to the original material (as short as it is) in this remix didn’t strike me as smooth, but this is still a very nice arrangement. The synth work is great, and at parts, it actually sounds the music is coming from a Super Nintendo game.

Master_Yoshi took most of the words right out of my mouth. The percussion is too loud, and it doesn’t even sound like you tried to make the original track your own. It’s a nice performance, but I wouldn’t call this a remix in the traditional sense.

I like how the first review I see says this remix aged well, and then the second one says it didn’t age well. I think it holds up well enough in this day and age. Great use of piano. Love how it blends with the dark (as indicated in the title) mood created by an electronic rearrangement. The end almost felt like the track was building up to something, and then it ends.

This was an interesting arrangement of an iconic theme like this. The treble does seem abrasive to me at times as well, but it’s not super distracting. I love how the original sound effects, even those not used in Super Mario 64, were incorporated into this remix.

Crulex is right to point out that some of the music in MMX3 was very repetitive, so it always impresses me when artists can stretch out original less than a minute long music into a full-fledged track. Of course this is a medley, so it’s not as if one track is stretched out into three minutes, but you wouldn’t know that without reading the profile. The ending of the track seemed very abrupt to me. Other than that, I really enjoyed this remix. Intense for the right reasons.

This is an excellent “pump you up” rock arrangement. I am absolutely in love with the sentai show vibe already pointed out in the profile. It really sounds like an exciting sentai battle theme, and I love it.

There were parts of this remix that I really liked, and there were parts of this remix I didn’t like. I didn’t like the club dance portions that make you want to have a fun time and dance the night away. Seemed kind of out of place in comparison to the rest of the track, which does an excellent job at expressing a dark and terrifying version of electronic music. The inconsistency of the moods expressed in this remix keep me from fully appreciating it.

This track didn’t really grab me. It almost feels like it was more of experimenting with different samples on top of the melody (which I barely recognize as being inspired by Sonic CD). It’s okay if you want to have some laid back electronic music in the background.

I feel like I’m hearing something Yuzo Koshiro composed in this remix. It’s a little laid back, but it isn’t so slow that it bores me halfway through the track. Groovy, and kind of dark. But in a fun way.

Now this is an excellent trance track. Almost perfect in its production. I almost wouldn’t even know it’s inspired from a video game, let alone one from Bionic Commando. I would love to dance to this at a rave. And I love that the melody isn’t drowned out by the pulsing beats.

The introduction to this track is nothing short of incredible. It really should set a standard for how to do an introduction to a rock remix. The sound levels in this track are great, as nothing seems too quiet, too loud, or too distracting. And I love the Spanish guitar. Overall incredible remix.

This track strikes me as an almost psychedelic chiptune rock experience. I do wish there were more guitar solos like the one from 2:47 to 3:34. Overall, it was a very nice blend of chiptune age music with modern rock.

Oh wow, I actually remember this track from when I was introduced to Overclocked about 12-ish years ago. The kick/bass and the snare is kind of distracting, but I am still glad I rediscovered this track through this review process I’m doing.
