*NO* Final Fantasy 4 'Cry in the Sorrow'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
First off, I really hate the title Some decent percussion work, though Though, nothing is expanded upon as compared to the originals. The sample quality isn't that great for the strings and piano, either. Gets repetitive, and the ending isn't that great. NO -
Oh yay, more Bomberman. It's cool for the first 30 seconds... Then, uhm... REPETITION!!! NO!! Update: As I was going through submissions, I noticed that this one had no attempt to even have ID3 or ID3v2 tags. This is a no-no!
-
HAHAHA NO!!!!!!!!!!

*NO* Super Bomberman 1, 3 & 5 'Tarob Kangaroo'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Haha, oh great, Bomberman! Word of warning - This mix is VERY exotic. It's pretty cool, though, considering how it manipulates that original theme very uniquely. I love those underlying strings, by the way. Ending isn't so bad, either YES -
*NO* Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow 'Raging Gym Leader'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
The synths are pretty cool - Though, the percussion is pretty lame, and a supporting bassline is just not there. Some decent effects here and there, and some insane panning, but it just sounds really empty. Plus, it just repeats over and over. The ending is just as mediocre. NO!! -
OCR00842 - *YES* Breath of Fire 'Save Your Game (Club Mix 2002)'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Changes around several times - Though, it was indeed repetitive in the beginning. I felt the very last part was my favorite - Which was disappointing cosidering its short length. Oh well, I felt the production quality was great - Amazing genre transformation from the original. YES -
OCR00822 - *YES* Metroid 'Met Mix Pro' *PRIORITY*
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Mmm... Decent percussion, cool panning, though - The introduction and the ending both don't pass as überl33t, though the mid-parts make up for it - Regardless, I found this mix mostly enjoyable. Not bad for newcomer scratty411. YES -
OCR00827 - *YES* Legend of Zelda 3 'Dark Tranzition' *PRIORITY*
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Wow, pretty cool stuff from newcomer Sine. I found myself dancing (in my head) to this. After listening to it several times, I found no reason to dislike it. YES -
*NO* Perfect Dark 'Alien Abduction' *PRIORITY - Older*
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Mmm.. Yamaha XG guitars. First thing I notice (Having experience with Yamaha XG)... Then Yamaha XG percussion... mmm.. The percussion sounds really dry as compared to the other instruments. Makes them rather "noticable". Then, what the hell at 1:40? Reeaaaally strange transition. But, yeah, it IS an alien abduction. It creates that type of mood - I say it's well done with the rather decent usage of dissonance. Ending isn't that great, though - Just fades out. Gee, it's a really tough decision... Eh... NO -
OCR00829 - *YES* Legendary Wings 'Legendary Strings'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Uh, hell yeah. Why is this here? YES -
OCR00863 - *YES* Chrono Trigger 'Memories Lost in Time' *FT*
DarkCecil13 replied to orkybash's topic in Judges Decisions
Rollback says I already voted... YES -
I think most of us are well aware of Mega Man 1's music - Though, I could just be speaking for myself. I thought the first 6 seconds of this mix were really cool - Heh, I dig that effect achieved there! Though, as the song progresses, I find myself to believe that this remix is quite repetitive. Although there is a good use of delay and reverb, it can be overpowering at times. That weird percussion instrument panned to the left is just.. out of place. Atleast, to me. Nothing really builds out of this, and I really dislike the ending. Though, the NES part under electronic analog-sounding effects is pretty nifty, the ending is still mediocre. NO
-
The first thing I really notice in this mix is the mixture of great sound pianos with electronic instruments - I like the mixture, and I think it works out quite nicely. Though, the introduction is rather boring, I think the later parts make up for it. I really dislike the snare drum used - It's overpowering, and the bass gives me a headache. Bass needs some sort of dropoff (I actually forgot a better term that could be used here, but I think it works), and the constant volume just aggrivates my ears. I felt the ending was mediocre - Just faded out - I was hoping for some ending pianos or something. Tough decision - Think about what I said for next time. NO

OCR00811 - *YES* Final Fantasy 7 'A World of Piano'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Why are we voting on this? This is excellent. YES -
*NO* Legend of Zelda 3 'A Link to the Dreams'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
The violin in the beginning gets on my nerves - It's just a really bad violin sample. It gets on my nerves, but I did like this mix to a certain extent. It sounds empty in the beginning though, and that's not good for a Rock Ballad. I like the choir part later on in the song, but it's not enough to sway my opinion to yes. Well, in addition to that, the drums are actually pretty well done, but this mix could use more dynamics and a better mastering job. Better samples are always nice, too. That violin... NO -
*NO* GoldenEye 007 'The Spy Who Fragged Me'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Uhm, no. I think it's glaringly obvious why this mix deserves what it does. D: Really bad samples, and repetitive work... NO. -
Hmm, after listening to this piece, I really first had trouble deciding what I should vote. Although some may not like it's repetitivity, I really like the fact that this mix is pretty well done ambient orchestral electronica. This mix is really soothing, and it's one of those songs that'd just sooth someone to sleep. Me likes! YES
-
This is the type of ReMix I'd expect of Silent Hill 2. The first thing I notice is the mediocre bitrate. I really dig this mix so far, and those pianos are just amazingly well done - Then, what the hell, is that the Beastie Boys? Minus 10 points there D: Totally takes away from the mix. The nice ambient intro is nice, and what I've heard so far is great. It stays consistent quality - Well, until the end. That weird scream SFX keeps the listener occupied. I find it annoying, as I do the bitrate, and the Beastie Boys clip. Fix those problems, and I'd gladly say yes. Though, for now, NO.

*NO* Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 'Metal Shredder'
DarkCecil13 replied to djpretzel's topic in Judges Decisions
Wow, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It has been ages since I've played this game! Oooh, this song brings back wonderful memories. Sure, it's short, but I'll be glad to have it on repeat for quite a long time. Very well done, as I see it. Keep up the good work, Voffie! YES -
Ahhh! That bassline gets on my nerves in the beginning D: Then that lead at 0:46 really kills me. On top of that, this mix has weak drum programming. Not bad for a beginner, but keep practicing, and you'll get there! The introduction was pretty cool up until about 0:11. I hate to say that it was my favorite part, but it was. NO
-
Uh... More can be done with the Bubble Bobble melody. Not much creativity here - Boring drums, crappy dynamics - Nothing special here. I can't say I like this mix. NO
-
OCR00804 - *YES* Chrono Trigger 'The Mellow Cooridor' *FT*
DarkCecil13 replied to orkybash's topic in Judges Decisions
A decent arrangement of the original - Nothing bad I can say about it other than the fact that the bassline is just a bit too loud. But, that's how he wanted it, so I'm not complaining excessively Nice start for The Graceful Failure - YES -
*NO* Super Mario RPG 'Booster Seat' *RESUB*
DarkCecil13 replied to orkybash's topic in Judges Decisions
Eek, still sounds pretty bad. Dissonance is scattered all over the place, and the quality is just blah. Sorry, but your newbie days reign on (just joking - practice, and you'll become something special. All of the ReMixers at OCR stunk at one time. Really, they have ) NO
