m68030 Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Gauntlet 'GAUNTLET!!' Fun and goofy. Nice arrangement. Very little can be said about it.. just go ahead and download it. It's wafer-thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mDuo13 Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Nice rendition of the Gauntlet theme that makes you feel like you're right in the middle of a very cool dungeon crawl. Worth a download, but not the kind of mix you can listen to for 8 hours straight. Nothing much sticks out, but it's a good remix nonetheless, and a fun ride. Tiny file, so even you 56k-ers (like me) should get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ella guro Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Damn, this is a spicy remix! It sounds like something straight from the Simpsons (obviously it's a nod to Danny Elfman). It's short, sweet, and just about all over the place, so download now for an...uh....GREAT remix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWired Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Wow this is something, i viewed gauntlet as a very serious game, and i hear this that sounds like its right out of a circus .. this mix brings a good chuckle, actually a good laugh at the image of "gauntlet outtakes". Wich wuold be sort of funny The sound is well clear, not too low quality, but the mix doestn stay very faithfull to teh game given its comical value. Nonetheless, its worth a download, quite funny.

fisherman Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 Quality. Short and sweet. To me, this one sounded like the opening theme for a TV show almost. Heh... Imagine Gauntlet the TV show.... The descending fifths part in the middle is probably my favorite part of the Gauntlet theme and I'm not only glad they put it in, but took a break from the oompa-driven feel of the rest of the track to do it justice.

jwhyrock Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Not exactly my cup of tea, but I give it two thumbs up for being original and well done. I would like to see a more sinister sounding Gauntlet mix. Listening to all of these songs is giving me many ideas for cool mixes. I don't know the first thing about mixing, but I am very musically inclined. Maybe I'll start getting into the mixing business myself. I think it would be a lot of fun.

Krythan Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 I can't listen to this without grinning. I love it! Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirion Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 This is really a nice tune!!!! It gives me the feel of being in a dungeon, ready for battle anytime, but is also a funny theme. A strange mix of moods but very nice. GAUNTLET GAUNTLET!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baruch - Vampire Lord Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Love it! Love how they brought in the main theme at 0:47! Great sound! I agree that gauntlet bloopers would be a must. This theme stays light and cheery but still has that dark feel of being in a dungeon and fighting for your life. It is very hard to combine those two but this has done a great job of it. This should be the theme song of the jester character from later Gauntlet games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevens Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Can we get more gauntlet mixes? This was tasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurokun1293 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Quirky. But well coordinated. I like it, moreso since i dont recall that game having much in terms of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenzark Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 This one brought a smile to my face. It's cheery and nice, and while I haven't played Gauntlet too much I really enjoyed this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicbhoc Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 never played the game but wow man. that's tight. sounds like it could be an intro to a cheery and upbeat game like Klonoa or Paper Mario or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Fun and crazy but the samples haven't aged well. There is also a pretty strong recording hiss from the piano. There is plenty going on throughout, and some nice interpretation, and good part writing. I wish it was a little longer, but there's only so much you can do with the source without writing your own song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 This has some cute stuff going on, and it's a really fun mix. The samples don't hold up so well, but I think the writing makes up for it. It definitely brought a smile to my face. The ending is a little weird, but in a way it fits the quirkiness overall. Nice work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emunator Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 The piano definitely feels like Mustin from what I've heard. I love the quirkiness of this mix, it's definitely one of the most bouncy, cartoonish remixes I've ever heard! Not really the kind of thing I would listen to for fun, but I have to admire the effort put in by the remixers and in the end, I have to wonder what kind of hallucinogenic drugs inspired this mix It's just so... different and unique. Check this out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechaFone Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Definitely a Tim Burton feel there, and that's hardly ever a bad thing. Kudos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drachefly Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 The samples don't really make such a difference here, except for the grating… thing… at 0:38. The simple samples just serve to give it a retro feel, which complements its bouncy and cheerful side. When I got to a stage with this theme in Gauntlet, this is what I heard in my head. This really interpreted it - made a new way of hearing the original, which is a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 The quirky Burton-like arrangement and cartoony sound was highly amusing and I gotta say, I quite enjoyed it for that. It is a bit short, but for the minute and forty seconds, there was nothing that got on my nerves or put me off at all, so from a 2000's mix standpoint, this is one of the better one's I've heard, and if remade to today's standards and given more time to grow and expand, I bet this would be incredible and super fun (well, more fun than it already is, I mean). Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
