  1. Pros:

    Cons:

    Cymbols are too loud.

    tooo much repeatinginginginginging.

    I've heard this song before. This mix sounds like it really lessened the melody and simplified it.

    The crash is SO annoying now. The lead synth sounds very out of tune. The detunage is taken to an extreme. This kinda detuning works as an effect, but not as a lead.

    Work on arrangement and cut the cymbol down

    NO

  2. Pros:

    Good use of drums and a working bass. I like the arrangement quality of this mix.

    Cons:

    SIGH....... PLEASE SCREEN THESE SONGS IF YOU AREn'T SURE ABOUT NOTES BEING OFF, SOME OF US WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU WITH THAT.

    YES

    Work on song length, off notes. and perhaps a more interesting 'improv' section.

  3. I would say that the beat was good, but then I realized that its just a long strings of random drumloops.

    This song is lacking in the areas of melody and lead strength.

    I like the arangement ability, but the lack of an established melody kills it for me.

    I LOVE that zipper sound! That works soo well.

    Please try not to rely too heavily on drumloops in the future.

    NO

  4. Pros:

    One thing I can say good about this mix is the interesting take on the beat. I like the congo and movement. Please work on arrangement quality

    Cons:

    Off Key Notes from beginning to end.

    High pitched tinkle songs never goes away.

    The piano starts getting too quiet and never takes over as lead. Eventually the piano is so quiet that I dont even recognize it as a lead.

    Use higher strings.

    NO

  5. public boolean voteOn( Song squarephants.mp3 )

    {

    if ( electroretro_Did_All_The_Strings_And_Instrumentation_Sequencing_Himself == true) return true;

    else return false;

    }

    if voteOn( Squarephants.mp3 ) YES

    else NO

    If you didn't get any of that, the someone try to find out if he did the strings and instrumentation himself or if he used a game recording. If he did it, I'll give it a YES. If not, its a NO.

    So I saw the game title and the immediate word association was "Russell Cox," so I asked him to take a listen and clear up the issue, and he said:
    Okay, literally and honestly, and you can quote me as I've just beat this boss two days ago -- this is nothing more than the ingame music with a drum loop and some synths thrown over the top. Granted, I think the break starting around 2:15 is original, but I don't think that it warrants enough 'mixing' to credit it as an arrangement to be published on the site.

    So I think that clears it up and besides that the drums are like "BANG BANG IN YOUR FACE" the whole time, to an annoying degree... at least in my opinion. But anyway, hope that clears it up.

    The obligatory NO

    D

    =

    NO

  6. I remember this game! I loved the main theme. Lets see where this goes..

    Synths are rather annoying so far. We are having chord problems at 1:00. This song has general confusion at 2:00. Just too much is happening and none of it fits with the rest.

    I am liking the ideas displayed. If this were done better, it could really rock. The melody is too undefined and flooded out by distortion and sound effects. The transitions are poorly done and not well thought out.

    Ugh, I don't remember this theme at all, I need to recheck it out.

    This song could end better.

    NO

  7. I thought the so-called 'off notes' were rather alloweable. They may be wrong notes against the original, but I sure don't think they were off key.

    The minimalistic nature of the song annoys me. Beat starts, beat stops, beat starts, beat stops. Nothing is really done with the song.

    Some of the instruments are out of tune - the stereo groove-synth for one.

    NO
