djpretzel Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 To OverClocked ReMix, My name is Ryan Necas (D1&only Necas), 17 year old freshman studying Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. I have begun experimenting with ReMixing and I would like to submit my first ReMix, "The Airship's Canon". This is a ReMix of the Airship Theme, the big Airship mind you, from Final Fantasy 3. Keep in mind this is my first submission, so if it sucks ass, I'll understand. You can find my ReMix at: www.angelfire.com/music5/rnecas/index.html "My Remix" is obviously the appropriate download link. The second link is the MIDI file I made and recorded from, and the third is the original MIDI. Keep in mind, when I put it on Angelfire, they changed part of the filename from Airship's_Canon to Airship_s_Canon. I guess they don't accept apostrophes, but you might like to fix it. I made this ReMix to be a lot more peaceful and quiet than your other ReMixes. My father constantly complains when I play songs from your site because they "give him a headache". He actually likes the song I made. So this song may be a tad simplistic, but I believe it is very beautiful. I used the structural concept of Pachelbel's Canon, starting with 8 long chords, then adding the main melody, then adding a supporting melody. The changes to make the supporting melody are completely my work. I also made changes to the main melody and the chords, and I slowed down the song considerably so the supporting melody could be heard better. The song ends in a round, offset one measure. I'll be working on more of the Japanese only Final Fantasies, because there are so few remixes for it. Especially after the Promised Land went off the site (that was one of my favorites). Anyways, hope you like it. Get back to me on the results as soon as you can.

analoq Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 The strings seem to be sequenced rather mechanically, I don't hear many changes in velocity or volume and these sound like the string samples off a creative soundcard; that's bad. Also, this is much too short... wow, that's the most anti-climactic and unfulfilling ending I've heard in a while. oh and anything you gain with 48khz will be lost once you encode to mp3. Please use 44.1 in the future. no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkCecil13 Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 Uh, where's the variation from the original? This hardly sounds like "A classical remix of the Final Fantasy 3 airship theme." No arrangement value whatsoever here. 1:12 - 1:16 = WHAT?. Ugh... NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dan Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 it sounds like only one or two tracks got rendered on a more full song. Honestly, it sounds like the background strings and arpeggio harps got rendered and everything else was forgotten. Is there supposed to be more to this? as it is, it's waaaaaaaayyyyyy too empty/simple. NO D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
