Broken Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I always thought this mix was very clever. The lyrics make me laugh every time I listen too it, but I think that each part that the song is split into (the four verse thingys) captures the style of music that it's going after (or more parodies it) perfectly. That is the best part. I wish some (not all) of the background noise was left out so that it would sound more like a real song though.

yellowcrunvky Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I've long since memorized the lyrics...and it's DEFINATELY "[blank]your joint, I just want my points."... 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
about:blank Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 This cracks me up every time I hear it. I can't help but laugh when I hear the phone conversation with "Gato" and the girl, or the part at 3:47 with the extremely old school hip hop strings. The concept of having it take place as like a kareoke night in a bar is really creative. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metaphist Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 The NWA throwback at the end had me falling down. Too good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indrik Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 That was silly. XD Who did the voice for the woman that Gato called during that part towards the end? 3rd to last segment I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFireKai Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 This is by far the most entertaining song on the site. Blows Music of My Groin away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoboKa Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 What inspired you to make this song? It's original, it's good and it's got style, but why the booing?? I liked it T_T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Bumping this review thread for great justice. Awesome song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojius Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Oh my... How did I ever miss this one? Why did you people NOT inform me of this one, knowing how hilarious I always thought Gato was! Well if you're like me, and you've been living under a rock all this time, download this, right now. (A warning; if you've NOT played Chrono Trigger, you probably will not find this very funny at all.) I absolutely love the arbitrary insanity. The only thing I might change, would be to make it more... hmm... Spontanious. It kind of lulls for a while each time it changes style. Imagine tuning a radio, spinning the dial, and on EVERY station that came in, there would be some weird-ass Gato-related song. You would pause for a moment to listen, then switch instantaneously. This would be more "in-your-face", and would bombard the listener with more hilarity than they could handle, rather than giving them a moment to recover each time. Awesome...

MechaFone Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 A few years before I heard this song, I downloaded Chrono Trigger for use with an emulator. I didn't get very far (>.<) but I -did- get to hear Gato's theme. That's why I can safely say that this song was so freakin' brilliant that it had me laughing the whole way through. Most definitely among my top five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squiike Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Yeah this is an oldie, a extremly creative and orginal song of Gato's with humor and finesse. i got the old verson, wich has some dialoge as it goes to this smoothe boy band style *telephone* hello? wha zup girl gato is that you? you know ill always love you you know i got some metal joints! are you ready? so lets go oh gato =D Anyways, i noticed that the sounds from the audience(laughter) is ripped from the movie "Ghost World" =D right after they exits the school on their graduation XD my favorite oc song! great work dale & mustin! ...Has it been 5 YEARS already!?! damn im getting old =E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drome_mc Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Dale, Mustin, I want to personally thank you both for changing my life. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmiduke Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Confession: I didn't laugh. I'm not a fan of "theatre" mixes at all. I think they pollute the music while putting too much emphasis on telling a story or being funny. Mustin has another remix that was put up a little before this one called 'Needles' which does a similar thing; meshes a medley and a narrative into something that combines quite awkwardly and detracts from what is really quite exceptional music. In this mix, 'Team Gato' especially there is some amazing, competent pieces of music in there. The first two pieces are up to standard with LOT of higher caliber standalone mixes. While the general consensus seems to be that the last segment is the best, my opinion is that it is the most generic and unoriginal of them all. No, I didn't find it funny. I think comedy can have a place in mixes, however (Niggaz 4 Life, I Got the Spacebeam, even Music of My Groin) but those mixes have the music as their top priority. This remix sounds like the concept was concieved before the music was, which is not a great way to create. And even despite that, the music is pretty great, just mired by the heavy conceptual stuff.

HAHAHAHA! I couldn't disagree more with this. There's nothing inherently wrong with including audio drama stuff in a ReMix. Even if you weren't feeling it, "Team Gato" is the stuff of legends. And then saying the same complaint about "Needles"? Nuh-uh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salluz Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 One of my favorite mixes, way before I joined OCR. Absolutely brilliant, man. The thing that made me laugh most was the fact that the theme was deemed so terribly (IMO?) that there was no good way to remix it. We went from opera to hip hop in one piece and it all made sense. I still can't get over the RnB phone call + Master P's "ugh". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosefu Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 This is a pretty funkay tune. The lyrics are just so awsome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Rough breakdown of each section: 1st - Sounds like something I'd hear at the Cherry Blossom Festival. The flute's a hypnotic lure, and the progressional backup instruments make the whole vibe dreamy. Even the "sad" key at 1:05-1:21 is addicting. 2nd - It begins like a star-studded, flashy nightclub, then turns heavenly when presenting all manners of strings. The ending is boisterously baller thanks to that audience member going "Aw, come on!" and the fact that the booing CUTS OFF Team Gato's second rendition. 3rd - The violin sets a melodramatic mood - a fitting precursor to the phone conversation. "You know I got some metal joints" is so full of innuendos. Backup voices add plenty of warmth, especially at 3:27's "joints." Steamy. 4th - A crazy pizzicato, gooey bass, and sharp, rap-based synth set the comical rivalry/animosity between Crono and Gato. 4:16 presents some outlandish pads like a respite before the face-off. "And we'll go at it, punk" sounds like the definitive "it's on" trigger. All my Silver Points are belong to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Legendary song. All of the variations are excellent and creative, but the phone call intro of the third variation is beyond epic. "You know i'll always love you... you know I have metal joints..." Nothing but love for this track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleNorth Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I have seen once, on the infinite reaches of this board, Dale or Mustin mentioning the possibilty of Team Gato 2. After seeing the CT OVA, I am more convinced than ever it should happen. With bilingual lyrics. And "You're so weak, and I'm so strong, I knocked your lights out, now run along."It would be the king of OCR. "Ah Gonalez!" A Team Gato 2 would be amazing...

Necrox Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I'm impressed with the multiple somber takes on this upbeat source. I particularly liked the second. And then we get... some hip-hop mix. I like the EP-like synth in the background. Certainly not the most flowy mix but its creativity compensates.
