Ok, I need to go check this. Maybe I was wrong, but I totally thought there was like a HUGE amount of improv and original stuffs.

ERRRRRRR ok, I totally didnt realize we could post on locked forums. I guess that should have been obvious WHO CARES ... my thoughts are: I thought this remix was FAR more than a simple replaying of a song on a band. It expanded on such a simple short song and turned it into a long detailed performance. Judging by that sole fact alone, I gave it a yes. Secondly, I dont think it was perticularly played bad. If it was, then I suppose I haven't heard many 'good bands' but I must say, my U's band is one of the top in the country and though these guys aren't quite as good, I'd say they were plainly good enough. I saw more negative reviews regarding recording quality and performance rather than arrangement and 'remix' quality. So I'm guessing that these NOs are more akin to rejecting a great remix because of bad samples/encoding. I personally shouldnt like to see songs on this site limited to instrument quality alone. -Prot

Layered repeating loops with no changes or progressions, just 4 minutes of a 7 second loop with different layers. Would like to see this go into the rest of the original song rather than just stay on those simple 6 notes. NO

Lots of highpitched and slightly annoying samplage here. Though its not a problem, It happens to sound very bad in some speaker setups. WHOA FADE OUT. Ok, try for longer than 2 minutes please, like...4 ? NO

Nice 808 drums or 404 or 202 or L0L or whatever... nice drum sequencing at any rate. I'd like it more if it wasnt mono. It actually had a very nice sound. I don't see whats to hate aside from it blatant shortness and monophony. NO

Intro vocals are totally off key/out of sync. This minimalistic techno is pretty much just a carry for the vocals which I'm pretty sure are from the game. There isnt much sequencing here. Theres a lot of stuff that doesnt work, vocal harmonies and such. They dont fit in with the melody of the song. cut off ending, cmon. I'm guessing that was a mistake. NO

I had 2 listens of the new version. One on my DTT5.1 and one on my yamaha earphones. The earphone hearing sounded far worse, but the speaker listen sounded just fine. I believe that the majority of people listening to this song wont mind this level of quality, and those that do will be offered an ogg vorbis or higher quality mp3 version if only they ask vigilante. I still think this level of excellent arrangement deserves a YES

This is totally not Super Metroid, but whatever. This basically follows the melodic arangement sequence of the SSBM mix of this song. Really dont like the flute. maybe with some reverb and bass support. A few cool ideas presented here, but they aren't developed. I would like to see it longer and ... maybe... some supermetroid songs in it? Or just change the file to Regular Metroid. NO

Yea, that was ... So anyway, I think this mix was rather well sequenced. I can tell all the drums are original. The chords aren't too well placed. To me, the voice samples really took away from the song. They made it sorta annoying to listen to. After 3 listens, the samples ruined it for me. Its less of a song and more of a fancy dj-break, as if someone keeps talking during the song and you JUST WANT THEM TO STFU!!! NO really liked the sequencing though.

Well, at least his blatant drumloops are somewhat modified this time. Well! That was a MUCH more impressive suzumebatchi song than last time. I'll say that he grately improved. This song is still very repetitive but has several changes and cool techniques. I'm wondering who did the piano, does suzu play? YES

Pros: Movin beats (even though they are beatloops) Great groove Cons: Very repetitive, Weak ending, It sounds to me that this entire sound is carried by drumloops and rythmic modules. Still, it sounds great and theres some cool improv and arrangement. Edit: Changed to NO after hearing some more. Its just too weak to use drumloops when so many others work so hard on their own percussion. Its like cheating. Resubmit with own beats PLEASE?

This is crazy cool insane, but I cant pass it because its only 1.5 minutes. Please make longer songs, sorry NO

1 minute? maybe the rest was lost in the process of ... er.. nope. 1 minute. hmm... Resubmit as 6 minutes and not looped and I'll give a Yes, maybe. Hmm, actually probably not. NO? EDIT: I'll give it another shot then, but I definately downloaded a 1 minute mp3. It was exactly 1 minute. EDIT2: UGH I totally downloaded the original. New review: OK!!!!!! much different. I'm really not likeing these brass samples. They are kinda out of place. I dont understand the need for flange upon orchestra. Aside from huge HQ soundfonts, I dont think this song has anything going for it so far. The percussion element could have been done better. Totally Totally way too short. I'd like to see this song not be carried by HQ samples and be far longer than 2:15. NO

I think its very cool. so a YES from me. This one should pass through quickly. EDIT: I appologize, was in a rush, etc. This song is by Starblaze, ofcourse, and its from Chrono Cross.

I feel like I'm going to DIE. NO This song gave me SUCH a HUGE headache, and I need to go do a lab now... ugh... pain... I dont recall another song that hurt me this much.

Drumloops, shortness, offnotes. I know Wintermute is above this stuff. NO

Too much repetition, good work on the synth and movement, but just not enough of what the french call "a certain... I dont know what." but in french. Anyway, For its short 3.3 minutes, I did not like hearing a long slowdown and a looped ending. NO

I don't understand the flow of this mix too well. It seems to be a lot of minimalistic expression, but not too much of a song. Poor drums and some note conflicts. But lets see... The transitions aren't too well done either. Seemed too thin and not very well thought out. Basically no ending. I liked the middle section though. NO

HAH! This one's crazy. Made me laugh pretty hard. At first I was like WTF bad flutes. But it got so much better fast. I think its very well done now after a few listens. So YES

I'm gonna be so bold as to cry foul here: This sounds like a midi rip. And to reitterate my general rule about these things: If its totally note for note like this, then its *POSSIBLE* that its not a nsf rip, BUT, why would anyone spend so much effort doing it note for note? Furthermore, there is no improvement in a note-for-note mix, thus it is against the beliefs of this website. Sure theres a bit of new stuff here, but almost none. Its just not a remix. NO

Very cool! Sequenced Rock really doesnt get much better anyway. Love the drums, VERY nice. Love the feel. See nothing wrong here. YES

And a 4th and final NO for sgtrama due to simplicity and repetitiveness. Now rama, DIE plz, kthx^^ EDIT: Alright, sorry for any who misunderstood. No, I am not being biased against rama, hes a friend. Its just that... if he is gonna die, I think he should stay dead .

Ryan8bit has worked long and hard after many tips and critiques from me and other people. This is what his song has turned into. Yet, I do not think it is in anyway important how long or hard he has worked on it, it deserves the same chance as any other. So I wont vote on it.

Too mch crash see above reasons and yeaaaaaaa NO

Very cool and funky. I'll give it a Yes until such time as malcos or someone finds that it is the same as the original, if such an event should arise. NO CHANGED VOTE TO NO AFTER INFORMATION ABOUT POTENTIAL MIDI RIP .
