Dar.. what? Such a neat little arrangement... but .... ok seriously wtf? Certainly DJ Freshie can find better instruments to use than this. It just boggles my mind that someone can write an arrangement of something like this and then not be able to find nice isntruments to not have it sound like reheated assbeer. NO

OCR00722 - *YES* Donkey Kong Country 'Jungle Stomp'
m68030 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Well i think it's pretty obvious that he didnt write the drum lines himself from the quality of the rest of the track. It's got it's points, but I dunno it just seems unfinished to me. Someone lend him a good set of soundfonts so he can re-render this. NO -
*NO* Donkey Kong Country 2 'Ship's Hold Horror'
m68030 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
It's just too loud with very little development. I feel like I was listening to a 40 second loop over and over. NO -
We are never free of controversy here, are we. So we have a remix of Children by Robert Miles, and a very good one at that, as featured in the excellent fighting game Garou: Mark of the Wolves. So what do we do? The remix is quite good. I enjoyed it very much. But where do we draw the line? Now i'm gonna pull a wild card. Ye Arie Kung Fu. This remix is a song by Jean Micheal Jarre. So... we kind of do have a precident set for songs featured in games. It makes me uncomfortable. but I'll say YES

OCR00719 - *YES* Final Fantasy 6 'Cid in the Factory'
m68030 replied to m68030's topic in Judges Decisions
Interesting mishmash of industrialistic stuff, reminds me of Mustin's Atomizer for some reason, I think it's the quick change of instrument types. anywya, this one is cool, so YES -
OCR00718 - *YES* Final Fantasy 6 'Oldschool Opening'
m68030 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
it's no secret that I love chip tunes. ya'll just have no appreciation for this type of work Loved the arrangement, wish it was longer. Definately cool though. YES -
It just feels messy. Everything is too loud and unbalanced, and everything is in the center channel, It's too much to listen to at one time. This needs to be spread out, pan some stuff, adjust volumes, then we'll talk. NO

dirty so very dirty i love it. makes my klipsch's bleed. Btw, the original had conflicting notes also, so it's not like he's wrong. YES

I made a remix of the Devil's Lab theme from FFVI.

So whee. Hope it's somewhat enjoyable! Credits: Ian - Vocals, Gaffeizil - Everything else.

OCR00711 - Silent Hill 2 "There Was a Hole Here"
m68030 replied to Ginnsu's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Beautiful. I love it. This has been one of my favorite themes from the game for some time now and Wingless has done it justice in a way I previously thought only Hazama could do. Very nice. -
OCR00120 - Castlevania "Vampire Killer (Deadcorpse)"
m68030 replied to Jivemaster's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Heh. my very first remix. Oh how I loath thee. I don't think I spent more than 45 minutes on this little splatter on the wall. I was totally floored to see it show up on the site less than a week later. And in retrospect, I'm even more suprised given that DJP isn't very fond the style of many of my remixes. Anyway, the different 'key' near the end was a sinewave modulation of the instrument, gives it that nasty offkey sound.. No clue why i did that.. I probably modulated it by a sine wave of 666Hz because I figured subconsciously it would make people uneasy. Who knows. If you enjoy this, then more power to you. But please listen to some of my other stuff if you don't like this, because this really isn't representative of my other work. -

OCR00694 - Rez "Fear (Arrakis: GIGA)"
m68030 replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
totally farking awesome. Definatly one of the better technodustrial type goodies i've heard on ocr for a while. I simply must dig out my copy of rez and give it a whirl again. i must not fear fear is the mind killer fear is the little death that brings total obliteration i will allow my fear to pass over me and through me and when i look back to where my fear was, only i will remain. -
omg, wtf. no.

NO. next.

*NO* Tetris (GB) 'Don't Bug Me, I'm Tetrissing'
m68030 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
NO I was very disappointed with this mix. It sounded so promising at the start with the drumandbasslinebits. then it just kinda.. stopped. i love the chippy gb noises.. but i'd also love to havemore under it oh well. -
NO ... NO NO NO.. i hate the pacman theme. it's just so annoying. uhg. and this.. this is the same notes for 4:19. the bassline is the only interesting thing going on, and it's so muffled you can't even hear it other than a rumble somewhere under my desk. ew.
-
NO I love a nice deep bass line, but not one that beats me upside the head like a man killing mice to feed to an owl. It makes the rest of the song sound a bit distorted in it's wake. That's the only problem I have with this mix, that problem makes the rest of the song sound icky.
-
NO (gosh i'm being tough today) Well it cuts off at the end. that makes me a sad monkey machine. The volume levels are just whack. Where's the lead line? Oh, it's drowning under all the rain in that movie with Kevin Bacon. And the drums? They are thunderfooting in that movie Night of the Lepus. Force this thing though one of those playdough shaper things and you'll have a nice cookiecutter rock track. but right now it's a little messy at the edges.
-
NO Cute. Sounds like an 80s synth demo mode song. I got a kick out of that. now there is some major ickiness at -1:32 involving a key change, but i'll overlook it this time, however it is a MAJOR issue for me. If this little hiccup were fixed I'll vote yes. I just hate seeing such a great little mix go live with an ugly oops like that.
-
NO A cute little arrangement.. That bassline bothers me. Go fire up "tekno wily". Sounds like it's a default instrument somewhere. I really think we need to start raising our standards here, define ourselves as more of a premiere music site. Granted that the default instrument sounds just fine in the mix, the drums are a little over powering. As with other current submissions, I'd vote yes if this were re-mastered. I know my vote of NO isn't going to keep this from getting posted in light of the number of yes's voted so far, so I'm just stating my opinion for the record.

OCR00689 - *YES* Final Fantasy 4 'SNES Battle Medley'
m68030 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
YES Great arrangement. The guitar playing is a bit 'off' at some points, but in a live set, that's forgivable. It's just a shame they didn't have better quality microphones to record this with, it comes out sounding terribly muffled. -
NO Don't get me wrong. This is an excellent arrangement, but the mixing is just icky. Way too seperated. Makes me feel like my head is being pulled open. The guitar line is great... and it would be alot greater if we could actually hear it. I'll say yes in a heartbeat as soon as this thing gets remastered.
