djpretzel Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Err... Hello, Mr. Pretzel. My name is Joe Clapis, I'm 14, and I'm kinda new to the system. I just made a 'ReMix' from Super Metroid. I figured what the heck, I'd send it to you and see what you thought. If this makes it to the actual site, my callsign is Alpha Omega. I have some logos on my site, which you are free to take if there's some sort of biography section. Site: Here's some info on it, but you can get what you need from the ID3 tag. Title: Behind The Visor Game: Super Metroid Length: 3:02 Bitrate: 160 kbps Size: 3.64 Mb Format: MP3 ReMix of: Samus's Theme, Brinstar Theme, Opening Music Thanks for your time! ----Joe "The Vector Kid" Clapis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatdrop Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Right off the bat, it sounds pretty thin and there's a good share of noise in the recording. The arrangement is pretty cool. I like what you did with the short eight seconds of the original. The little interjection of the titlescreen's song was pretty neat about halfway through. The drums seem lacking to me. They just don't seem to carry this mix like they should. Some of the sounds are a bit GM-ish, but nothing too too bad. In particular, I didn't like the flute. The strings seemed to have a bit too sharp of an attack, as well. The mix really kills it, though. It sounds very very thin. Try EQing it a bit to bring out the sound, because this could have some real potential if you pulled it off better. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcos Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I like the arrangement of this mix, however there are some sounds that really don't work IMO. The flute sounds cheap compared to the other instruments and the strings really could do with some reverb and a slightly slower attack. Not bad, but this mix needs some more work to really bring it out. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protricity Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 This is totally not Super Metroid, but whatever. This basically follows the melodic arangement sequence of the SSBM mix of this song. Really dont like the flute. maybe with some reverb and bass support. A few cool ideas presented here, but they aren't developed. I would like to see it longer and ... maybe... some supermetroid songs in it? Or just change the file to Regular Metroid. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analoq Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 This sounds like a 4kb MIDI file played through $6 computer speakers... despite the fact that it's a 160kbps MP3 being played through $600 nearfield monitors. I'm in agreement with Beatdrop, the mix kills it. Also the arrangement is nothing special, but really, this sounds patently ametuerish. no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
