OCR01172 - Secret of Mana "Return to Elysian Lands"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Yes...oh yes. I love it. This is the dreamy/surreal mix this piece needs. I almost don't like the crescendos (if that's the word). I could just listen to that one mist refrain in the opening over and over... -
OCR00088 - Chrono Trigger "The New Zeal"
risingson77 replied to Joe Redifer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Lovely take on Zeal (one of the many ). I like the slight "off-key-edness" of the intro. Nice rhythm and a bitchen lead synth. Solid. -
I must have forgotten about this mix after I downloaded it. It just came up in random play and....I suck and should be destroyed for forgetting about this track. Very creative and inspired. This is a very compelling mix of the Jenova theme. I always liked the original, but this really sheds new light on the tune. It's nice to hear real instruments for a change on OCR, too. I'd like to hear a WAV or APE. OK, enough clichéd gushing from me. Excellent work Noir, keep it up.

OCR01162 - Final Fantasy VII "Prayer"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
No, thanks. The percussion is way too busy, the acoustic guitar is out of tune, and the electric has a staccato delivery that just grates on me. I nixed it after about 40 seconds. -
OCR01130 - Final Fantasy VI "Squaresoft Variation"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Very, very nice. I rather like the exploration of Terra's theme. Nice dynamic changes and the like. ...and to think I almost didn't download it! "Oh God, not another FF6 remix..." Only DJP's gushing recommendation got me to download. As for clipping, if I listen hard with the sound up I can hear a small click in the right channel around 2:14. Than again, I've heard clicks on many tracks on my PC, so it's probably just my shitty audio system. -
OCR01081 - Final Fantasy VI "Anthem of Exile"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Excellent. The trumpet duet works very well in this piece. I would have excised the noodly, uninspired organ solo, but that's minor. -
OCR01085 - Mega Man 3 "Magnet Man Goes West"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This tune was one of my early DD faves. Yes, it's simple - but does it need anything else? We know Dan can do epic, so why not something light on occasion? I thought this mix had been on OCR before, but I guess I just got it from Dan's site.... -
OCR01045 - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time "SoS"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
OK mix, but very "noodley" as others have said. All-in-all, I like the soft, echoey sound. It seems to fit the basic idea behind the mix. It could just be a bit more focused and perhaps a minute or so shorter. -
OCR00022 - Legend of Zelda "Rabbit Joint Cover"
risingson77 replied to Joe Redifer's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Like I'm gonna trust a site with that many pop-ups. -
OCR00985 - Super Street Fighter II "Cammy by Night"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Porno music? I don't know of a single porn I've seen with music this nice. Excellent, just excellent. Has a very thorough feeling without seeming "overworked" or forced. Cammy's theme adapts very well to this sort of lite jazz/pop arrangement ( I always liked this theme anyway). The tenor sax is astounding - if it's not real, I'd have to say that it's one of the most convincing synths I've heard. I would also like to know what you used to make this mix, mv. OT: I also enjoyed your remix of Laura's Theme from SH2 (sorry, "Theme of Laura" is to awkward and Engrish-y for me ). -
OK, first I must apologize. This question may have been asked already but I'm too lazy to read the whole thread ~ I can't get FL4 to make any noise when I import a MIDI file. The little VU meters light up, but I don't get any sound. I've fiddled with the various MIDI and output settings, but to no avail. MIDI works fine in WinAmp. I'm using the demo version of FL4, if that makes any difference.

Especially McVaffe's remix. \m/ -

Can do! -
OCR00967 - Super Metroid "Zebesian Midnight"

For those interested, I'm sharing the WAV on Kazaa. Just search for Zebesian Midnight, you'll know it when you see the 74,xxx kb file. -
OCR00967 - Super Metroid "Zebesian Midnight"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
So very, very sweet. This is how a really complete ReMix sounds. Vigilante obviously spent a ton of time on this one. The guitar tones are awesome - I especially liked the humbuck'd guitar at the end. Sound quality is a bit "papery", as DJP pointed out, but that's the price you pay for such a wonderful (and wonderfully long) tune. <- gets down on his knees to beg for a high quality (maybe even WAV ) to get posted on someone's FTP soon. Oops, posted before reading Prot's post. -
OCR00264 - Final Fantasy VIII "Eyes on Me (Not Faye Wong)"
risingson77 replied to m68030's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Very good indeed. What can I say...sweet, romantic songs sung to a pounding beat do it for me. I would like to hear a mix with the vocals a little further forward. The singer appears to have a very nice voice...but it's hard to tell. -
OCR00954 - Final Fantasy VI "Mode Serpent"
risingson77 replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Well, I'm admittedly an amateur on guitar, and I'm not the greatest recording engineer, so....yes, of course, it was a real guitar! ~Quinn Try moving the mic away from the neck...maybe closer to the sound hole? -

I've never heard fret noises that loud on a live guitar. O_o -

The guitar was synthesized, right?
