  1. There is definate arrangement from the original. Real issue here is quality level. Samples kinda suck, but more importantly, they weren't used very well. Very minimalistic intro. not much going on for a while. Not very good attention payed to keys. work on that production value. NO
  2. I recognize the drumloop. As for the song, its virtually the same as the original. Lets go for more REMIX YAY OVERCLOCKED REMIX`1!!! SEE? ITS A REMIX SITE THATS COOL!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!! YAY NO!
  3. Pretty impressive considering the first version of this song I heard a year ago. Looks like 'yes' but I'll have to listen more. Way way better than the original.. but it still has the problem the original had. (Note: by original, I mean v 1.0 of this song) A. Not too much going on. B. FL N00b Quality C. Ugly keys/notation in a few sections. Very nice improvement, unfortunately our standards went up since NO
  4. This song is really annoying. crazy overdone reverb and off sync notation. Lots of repetition. Biggest problem is the overly floody nature of the mix. Work on sound quality. NO
  5. Couldn't let you outdo me with your fancy linguistics.
  6. Very poor arrangement. Vocals are massively distracting. Work on improving your arrangement skills instead of your ability to include voice samples in a song. NO
  7. CD Scratch sounds. Please resubmit a cleaner copy. Way too similar to the original with cooler sounding instruments and sfx. NO
  8. First half is the original. Second half is... is.. ... ... NO OVERRIDE
  9. Very poor attention to keys. Also this is a short cover with no 'remix' or 'rearrangement' qualities. NO
  10. This song has a hard time developing. Drums never get too involved without stopping shortly thereafter. Lots of slow ambient effects. Bassline and leads follow the original a bit too much. Same for the drums. Develop it more. NO
  11. We'll need someone to do research on this one for sure. Sounds like a mass-rip. You got the off key chords, the unfitting drumloops, and general overdone reverb and bad mastering. giving this the benifit of the doubt: The lead does not follow the key of the brass. Also, short and lame fade out ending etc NO
  12. Nice Nice. Good use of not-so-nice samples. Well constructed, good attention to detail, groovy. Decent variations on the original. Cool stuff. YES
  13. The whole 1:00 part has really poor key attention. Very messy. Violins don't sound real at all. Lots of repeating. Original melody is followed pretty much exactly save for some poor chords. More repeating. Please have more attention to keys and dont use high quality samples to carry a song. EDIT: Perhaps the strings are real after all. THey dont sound real. Anyway, that was not the reason I gave it a NO
  14. NO for the bad cd-rip scratches and what not. Thats really poor to be submitting a song with cd rip errors in it. Aside from that, the ambient pads do not fit the guitar at all. Pay more attention to keys.
  15. Oh my fucking god. This is so damned cool. Holy Shit. God I hope this doesn't break any guidelines. HELL DAMNIT WTF GRRRRR STFU NO Potential Problems: This was gotten from a C64 game? Whats the deal with the ripped off vocal sections from that one 80s song.. uh.. forget the name?
  16. uhm... i..interesting. Please try not to do the singular notation over a drumloop type deal. Go for better dymanics: a bassline, accompany, chords, structure. NO
  17. hahaha. This is pretty fun. HAHAHA HA HA HA HAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA etc anyway. Its fun because of the multitude of drumloops and sound effects. Very creative way to make a song out of an 8 second riff. This is a tough decision. I'm on the side of NO due to the excess reliance on sfx/loops Could have been much better. Go for your own drums next time. I liked it but NO
  18. decent drums, lots of sound effects. Problem here is total lack of appreciation for chords, arrangement, and ofcourse rearrangement. A lo-fi redux of the original with different instruments. This would have been perfect for metroid prime. Ending is really abrupt and weird. Cool ambience, but lacking in all else. Keep at it. NO
  19. I remember the original well enough. It was basically this without the preset synths and simple drum. You need to go for more. More means more in the way of melodic arrangement. Cut synths and stomp drums might be enough for some people, but not for oc. We're about rearrangement, remixing. NO
  20. Drums... very... very.. cool drums .. VERY COOL DRUMS ..over the original I'll give that the instruments changed later on, but it was still the original melody. NO Gotta make your own music too, not just drums. sorry.
  21. The original in piano note for not with some guitar strums in the background. Go for a full length song. NO OVERRIDE
  22. Well concieved and excecuted. Issues are: lack of mastering/sound quality. guitar playing is sorta ameture. Very very repetitive. Good points are the improv and rearrangement. I especially like the drums. You need to go for less repeat and better sound quality and you'll be fine. NO
  23. It's not usually that random, by the way. Just giving you a heads up - then again, this could set a new direction for the show, given the popularity it's gotten as a result . A new direction? Danny B calling like 15 times? No thank you! BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT SMART
  24. Pretty weak, yes. You got the drumloop and single instruments going on. Loops twice and ends unconvincingly. Just go for more. Elaborate on melody, use different instruments. Dont stick to minimalism. I must say though. Theres a real good flow. I'm pretty borderline as it is. NO Due to uncertainty and vast moral dillema, I'm gonna have to reconsider this one. My NO was not definite. I'll listen more. Ok. I liked the style in this song very much, especially with what was going on later. The drums change enough. To add much more to this song would probably kill the style. I've listened to this like 30 times now. I'm right on the border. Took a while but I'm pretty into it now. Sad that this song will never see the light of day in OCR. Cool stuff, I'm keepin it. YES
  25. All the callins from episode 24, the good ones anyway. ftp://aripc.dhcp.asu.edu/Upload/Vg%20Frequency%20-%20Dan%20B%20Call%20ins.ogg Enjoy.
