Maybe this hit me the wrong way, but this is weird. Really weird. I haven't heard the original, so I can't really comment, but I think this is just too weird. Sorry but NO

Yeah, great tune man. The groove is there, the vibe is swingin', and the bass is kicking.

I gotta say, this is too close to the original, but it sounds great! Hard gritty guitar with some heavy drums, it really gives an impact. However, I must abide by the guidelines. NO

Interesting intro. I found this song to be much more enjoyable in the first half. There were some notes I wasn't too sure about around 4.04-4.21, but other than that I guess this is good enough for OC. YES

The intro is very impressive and promising. The mix is well done, with subtle effects and sweeps thrown in for interest. The whole thing moves along nicely, and the transitions are not too much of a shock. However, the main lead synth is really annoying at times. The part where it comes in at 4.21 should be highlighted in particular - the synth comes in waaaay too loud. It is also quite a bit too similar to the original in terms of notes, maybe some elaboration would be better. So nice idea, good texture and mixing overall, but that main synth sound is just too grating. NO

Very creative, and nice sounds, although a lot of the time the texture was painfully thin. There are some parts that I really like and some other parts I don't - sometimes the contrast between sections was too much, almost like a totally different genre each time. This mix could have been shorter with more layers IMO. I don't think this has a place on OCR. NO

This has a really good arrangement, don't change any notes! This just needs some work as far as mixing and mastering is concerned. Some parts, like the arpeggio at the end for example, should have been lower in volume, with some reverb added. A lot of the sounds here need some reverb and more subtle placement in the mix. In addition, the mix needs a slight overall compression to stop it clipping. Then I would definitely give this a yes, it's a good mix. But NO for now.

The slap bass in this sounds like a stretched sample. But thankfully, the rest of the mix is really good. Arrangement is interesting, and the groove is great, it's definitely different from the other icecap remixes I've heard. I also like the flute solo, with some lava reef notes thrown in for good measure. Ending is good also. YES

It's too short, and I don't like the sound of the guitar. It's seems too loud at times, taking over the whole mix, and since I don't like the sound of it in the first place, that's not a good thing. Don't like the ending. NO

Won't download for some reason, I've been trying for a couple days.

What is that sound? Is it a guitar? Adding panning kicks in the mix at certain points doesn't really help, neither does flanging the whole mix all of a sudden. Repetitive as hell, and then just fades out, leaving some nasty sound to finish it off. This one definitely rubbed me the wrong way. NO

This is not as repetitive as it could have been, some nice work here to keep the listener's interest. Sound quality is very good, and effects have been used well. Nice. YES

Hmm, I see the concern, this could be just drums over original. I'll see if I can find out anything about this one.

Apparently this web page doesn't exist. Hmmm

Wow this is a long one. It's 112kbps, but I'll let it slide this time. Very good guitar playing, good lyrics and passionate vocals. You don't get submissions like this every day. YES

Nice groove. Very repetitive though - the variation in the middle is a welcome change. The first half is good, the second half is better, much better. It has more variation on the beat and a better lead sound. YES

NO Now lets listen to this. NO

Well you see we don't really do covers on this site. We do remixes. NO

Hmmm, maybe you could have put the two together with a transition in between? Very nice sounds, excellent programming. I recommend resubmitting and merging the two versions into one. NO, purely because of the awkwardness. Tis a shame really.

The programming in this mix is good, there are some parts where I'm not sure about the mixing (some synths seem too loud compared to the drums). It's a little short, and the ending cuts off. This needs a little more work. NO

Really simple arranging, got some nice synths, sounds good. The only question for me is whether it's interesting enough. Oh go on then. YES

I don't like what's happening with the kick here, it gets louder, then quieter... Is it on a flanger? Some synths suddenly come in really loud, too loud, and all the notes are extremely short, this sounds like a chiptune even when I know that strictly speaking it isn't. This is just not for OC IMO. NO

This is really simple, there's hardly anything here. I suppose the drums are interesting, but this mix is like a person trying to take the last bits of meat from the chickenbones that someone else has already chewed on. NO
