This song sounds like it' supposed to be swinging, but it sounds really square. When doing something jazzy like this, you need to emphasize the upbeats; everything sounds really static in terms of velocity. Percussion is particularly bad in this regard: just some hats on 1 and 3 of the measure. That's not good. Sample/synth quality is not so great either; really basic sounding stuff. You could use some better sounds. Arrangement meanders as well; there are some nice ideas and an interesting approach, but the energy level never changes, and I sort of lose interest about halfway through. Some variation is needed. Not a bad start, but needs work. NO

Piano is really mechanical and way too dry; really sticks out, especially when it's up against those guitars. This is a fun arrangement; nice energy, good performance on the guitars, and it doesn't overstay its welcome. Nice change-up into the main Pokémon theme too, keeps things fresh. YES Let's take a look at that piano and also rebalance as per other joojes' suggestions. -- Listened to the edited version. SOLID! LETS GO GO!

I don't think the dynamics are a dealbreaker in this case. The arrangement is nice and varied, and I think in terms of mood there are good ups and downs. I liked the arrangement before, and the samples are quite improved over the last iteration, so I'm gonna go ahead and say GOOD JOB. (yes)

Fantastic interpretation of the source tune and some really stellar production. Unfortunately the structure of the piece is lacking. The piece doesn't have any dynamics; it's one static energy level throughout. Really gotta change it up more. NO, but please resub

Don't like that original outro. It sounds nice but this is a remix and if you're exiting on something completely original, that doesn't really provide a cohesive arrangement of the source. :\ Some great ideas and performance though. First section is pretty awesome, and to be honest I don't mind the transition into the second section that much, because that's pretty much what the source is like. Really enjoying the second section of the piece, except for the chip-lead, which is pretty dry and doesn't sit well in the mix until it starts arpeggiating. Not bad, but not great either. This is a toughie, but I'm gonna say NO (resub) because that extended original section at the end bugs me.

I locked the original thread because the movement had run its course. Please don't remake a thread after the initial one get locked.

Please stay on topic.

ziwtra is my favorite remixer. His music always sounds so clean and fresh and very intricate.

I would like to see your artistic interpretation of the offspring of a dog and dolphin.

It's not a bridge game. It's more the dev cherry picking elements from the different series. You've got both Iris and Alia and Signas there, but also Dr. Light, Wily, Protoman and Roll, and Bass is not the Classic version but Bass.EXE, the Navi version, and Battle Network is completely divorced from the main MM timeline.

You better watch it buddy I got my eye on you.

Great arrangement with awesome processing and effects, but wow, way too much compression. It's actually killing the sound; something like this should sound huge, not crunched and tiny. Love that guitar break, but unfortunately the guitar gets buried in the soundscape by the synths really quickly, and then it just becomes an over-compressed mess again. Muted trumpet is an interesting choice; not sure it works. Needs work on the production end. Look at that compression. NO, resub

caaaaaaake

~ tsun tsun dere dere ~ Actually it was more of a Harry and the Hendersons + Flight of the Conchords ref.

Good riddance to bad rubbish! Go on, get out of here! Can't you see we don't want you here! ... I'm not crying! It's just raining on my face!

Well produced, kind of a conservative arrangement. Starts off nice but the energy sort of dips in the middle there; could use a little more going on in the drums; not a dealbreaker though, as they kick it up a notch later. You're a bass player man, it woulda been nice to hear a bass solo. Overall though it's a groovy track with a lot of nice guitar work. I dig. YES

SYNCOPATIONNNN~~~~ Man I love that lead sound. So slick. Drum breakdowns are the hotness. Really well produced, awesome soundscape! Very groovy. YES

Nope, that's music from the movie.

Way to long to start. Sounds like an extended 2.5 minute intro. :\ Sustained strings remind me of Porcelain, but they're too bright. There's a real lack of mid-range here. The once we get into the meat of the arrangement, it's kind of boring. Repetitive drums and bassline, empty soundscape, meandering piano. I agree that the piano solo at the end is way out of place. Some good ideas, but the execution needs tightening up. NO

Not a bad little combo piece; sax feels a little lose at parts, but then tightens up pretty well. No biggie. Good production; nice balance. Part-writing is great; good interplay between instruments. That's precisely the kind of thing good jazz needs. Wish this was longer; coulda used a solo section though. OH WELL. YES

DEIA PLEASE VOTE FOR REALZ Nice chip sound without sounding limited by hardware. A fun retro soundscape that manages to sound lush and modern as well. Arrangement is kind of straightforward but there's some nice syncopation and varied part-writing to keep things fresh. i liek it YES

How did everyone do today?
