OCR01100 - *YES* Final Fantasy 7 'Internal Affliction' *RESUB*
Protricity replied to Protricity's topic in Judges Decisions
I like the ambient feel to this song. Its much better than it was. Still kinda lacking in structure. Questionable notation I'll let this one loop... -
This song generally lacks in skill and quality. Instruments are very simple hitting notes without paying much attention to key. Its mostly 3 minutes of layered loops. Really needs to be more than that. NO Edit: This is really not gonna pass. NO OVERRIDE
-
This song has some quality issues. The guitars are mono and low frequency. Though they are well played, there is quite a frequency gap between them and the drums. Its like 2 different tracks playing at once. Secondly, there isn't much going on besides the original being played with crazy guitar and crazy beats. Perhaps with live drums, well recorded guitars, and a slower pace, this mix would work, but as is, NO
-
This has pretty weak percussion for a dance mix. Its kinda annoying. Very little going on in this mix. Its just a simple beat with synths now and again. Needs to be much more. Develop the melody. NO

OCR01097 - *YES* Final Fantasy 6 'Umaro Uematsu'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Hey! this is pretty fun! I like the rock drum variation. like the use of instruments. There are a few mastering issues that could be better.. volume issues mostly. Its very moving. Guitar sounds fake, but works. Reverb is a little heavy. Really like the drums. Pretty borderline, but I'm going with yes because its not short and does what it is meant to do. YES -
Guitar was indeed very muffeled. It didn't sound very real at all. Real issue here was the shortness of the song and lack of developement. Try to go for a longer timeframe and have more going on than a single melody loop and then abrupt cutoff. NO

*NO* Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (GG) 'Crystal Eternity'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
This is more a demo on what kidna sound effects Spunodi can do rather than a song. There are some pretty big key issues here. General off key ness and a mess of arrangement. Keep at it! NO -
Very ugly synth straight from the beginning. Poor EQing all around. This is quite an ugly arrangements of synths. Skill comes with time and practise, and this song simply lacks in the skill required for this site. NO
-
Ack, those notes at the beginning hit me the wrong way. Probably cause they aren't the same as the original. Some clashing. Yay.. drumloop... Melody is VERY poor around the 1 minute mark. Theres a middle section where nothing happens except another drumloop and some sfx. This song has nothing to offer beyond those already on this site, except a few notes off the mark. Try for your own percussion next time NO

Far better than the minimalistic original version. Sounds more like something that would come out of bomblis rather than vectorman. ftp://aripc.dhcp.asu.edu/Upload/Vectorman- Day 06- Tidal Surge.gym Quite interesting, but ultimately the same as the original with better sounds and soundeffects. Real thing that killed this song was the repetitiveness. Its about 20 seconds of song repeated some 10 times. NO

*NO* Sonic Adventure 2 'Maze of Mirrors'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
This is quite toned down. Not much going on. Original melody repeats throughout, with some low key drums. Real issue is the general lack of substance as well as the length. Only 2:22 and not much happening durring. Try for longer and more of a song structure. NO -
OCR01093 - *YES* Breath of Fire 'His First Good Deed'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
I think the sfx make this song real annoying. I'll have to come back to this one. -
*NO* Super Mario Bros. 'Mushrooms in the Basement'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
This mix doesn't pay much attention to keys. Several sections have not conflicts with the lead and bass. This song repeats quite a bit and offers nothing over the originals it strings together. NO -
*NO* Guardian Legend 'Password Entry (TGL Pass Mix)'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
This song has a great deal of repeating for such a simple melody. There are sections of nothing more but a straight drumloop. This needs to be much more than it is. NO -
OCR01106 - *YES* Darius 'Silver Hawk Legacy'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
I got pretty into this one. I like the drumwork. Cool bass and instrumentation. Good way to use meh-quality samples. YES -
Issue #1 is that its exactly the same as the original. Issue #2 is that as the guitar is live, it has bad eqing and the playing skill is lacking. This song is simply lacking in the sound quality and arrangement area. NO
-
Hey, this is pretty cool stuff, but now that I remember the original, this is indeed very similar. Lots of nice 80s concepts going though. However, 2:30 just doesn't cover it. Its way too short. Please resubmit a longer version of this song. I REALLY liked it. Another regretful NO
-
Lots of clipping and poor mastering, but that wouldn't be a problem if there was bass. Its really quite a hollow song without the bass. It just doesn't work out. PLEASE resubmit with bass. Get someone to do it for you even. Its a shame to leave the song so hollow when it could be great otherwise. A regretfull NO
-
A great deal of this mix sounds like it was made with reason's random note generator. It might have been decent if more attention was paid to the random jumble of notes. There is no order here. Percussion is nearly non-existent. There is only one lead throughout the whole song. Too further compound my view I quote the words of Daniel Baranowsky: Its exactly how I feel, soNO
-
*NO* Ecco the Dolphin 'Aquamarine Ambience'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Cool stuff. However, like vig said, it would really have to be twice as long to be acceptable. It ends too soon. NO -
This is a nice intro for a song. At 2:23 you should start the actual song. Get into something. This is just an intro. Go for more. NO
-
OCR01122 - *YES* Life Force 'Temple of Life'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Issue here is really that this is pretty much the original song with percussion. There is some variation, and the drums are decent, but it never really reaches that Ocremix level. Power tools stuff is pretty cool. Overall, I'm kinda borderline on the whole song. It just needs to be ... more. Less repeating, more variation. -
*NO* Freelancer 'Terminal Velocity Steelurai'
Protricity replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
This song contains a great deal of repeating. No variation. Very low quality samples used poorly. No intro, no ending. No percussion variation. NO Keep at it.
