Spacecow Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 I'd just like to say that, even several months after the fact, this remix remains one of the few in recent memory to have that certain explosive, energetic, and (ironically enough) emotional feel to it that so many new remixes are missing these days. So few remixes rarely have this much heart and soul poured into a mix, and I sorely wish more remixers went to greater lengths to make their final product that much greater. (This is why I dislike ambient tracks, although I understand that a good deal of work goes into them as well.) Any idiot can throw together a drum loop and a few synths together and call it a remix, but it takes a true passion and love for the art to truly do the songs justice. I don't think I have anything else to say that hasn't already been said (I only skimmed up to page four and skipped the rest) besides the obvious "10/10 A++++ would obsessively listen to again." So there you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_am_Torgo Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 This ReMix seems to have gotten it's share of reviewage... oh well, I'll throw my kindling on the fire to keep it burning! This is the first thing that I downloaded on the site, and it didn't disappoint. Really, there's nothing to complain about on this one. Right length, nothing gets old, and all that. What stands out? Quite obviously the lyrics. Wonderfully crafted, written, applied to the song, and sung. Expect for the bridge and after the final verse, I really don't see much ReArrangement from the original tune. That's not a complaint; I very much approve. I really dig the piano at the end. There's really not much else to say. This remix rocks. Rest assured it's not everyone's thing, though. Score: 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maplejet Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Whoa...a lot of reviews for this song!!! Anyways, this song almost sounded like it was dug up from an 80's song or something, especially the voices! Love the percussion and beats too!!

Frictional Antidote Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 Initially I didn't give this song any credit. My big mistake. The beginning really gave me the impression that the whole thing was going to be nasty quality music. Much to my amazement, when I actually sat down and listened to the whole thing through, my jaw just about hit the floor. Like someone else said earlier in this review, it does remind me of Daft Punk's Digital Love. Amazing remix. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esden9 Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 This mix is awesome. Theres something about clever vocals and flangers that makes me love a song. Star, you rock. Been diggin your tunes since 2001. Keep 'em coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshua Kenni Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 I've heard this song at least a hundred times, and it never gets old. I <3 this song foreva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navi Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 In a Daft Punk fashion (in my opinion), this is one of my favorite OCs. i love, particularily, the vocals and the lyrics. wow. good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 I don't know what to say about this one. The parts with no lyrics are sheer brilliance: THAT is how robo's theme was meant to sound. However, it clips so badly with the singing that it makes my ears bleed. Do you have a non-clipping version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandering Budoka Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 This song kicks @$$ and a 1/2, period. Lyrics are great, music is great, 'nuff said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I have to admit, when I first saw the review for this reMix, I said to myself "Vocals >.>.." My expirences with OCR with vocals hasnt been good. I finally gave it a shot and found myself listening to this song 24-7. Its soo easy to imagine Robo actually singing this, which is what really makes this song a true classic at OCR ^__^. I reccommend this to everyone!

bouncerboy15 Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 This song is great to listen. The vocals and stuff are wonderful. I recommend this to anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esden9 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Someone make more remixes that equal this song's awesomeness. Please...It makes me sad when this song ends and there is no good song that can follow. Poor playlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeman38 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 I'm a fan of Daft Punk and ELO... so of course I'm going to be giving this one a big thumbs up. Awesome work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaster1980 Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 This should be the standard(If it isn't already) that all future OC's w/vocals are judged by & hope that there will be more of these in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcovsleon20 Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 Not what I had expected but still good. The lyrics are thought out very well and have some nice refferences to the game and there's the occasional Robo sound effect. All in all nicely done. 7/10.

RedShadow Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 This song actually makes me kinda angry, I have to put it in it's own playlist. If I try to put any other song with it the sharp drop in awesomeness gets annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyEvolution Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I really like the distorted drums and the vocals. Really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I am not a hardcore RPG gamer, but the I have developed a very strong emotional connection to the Chrono series, thanks to the incredible music by Yasunori Mitsuda. The Robo theme was one of my favorite tunes from the CT soundtrack and Star brings it to life with lyrics in the best way possible. Even though I am not fond of the distorted drums in this piece, I would still rate it as the most imaginitive CT remix ever. The lyrics fit the mood of the track perfectly and offer a good insight into Robo's complex character. For those of you who haven't downloaded this remix yet, put it as the top priority on your "to do" list. This track is a must-have. To Star: Mad respect.

Shadow Magus Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I love this song so much. You know you like it when you catch yourself singing along to it, and not making any mistakes... I give it a 9.9/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjDaveySpecialK Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 word there should be crazy amounts of this song made, not just with lyrics but there is only one remix of this song and i think it is definatly the best song the game has to offer even though all of the songs are great allrighty, peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Matt I Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 This song pwnz. End of story. No, but really. 9.5/10, because I can't understand a small fraction of the lyrics. Otherwise 10/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgmusiclover Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 (rollingonthefloorlaughinghysterically) this song is great!! A good Remix through and through, well done(starts laughing again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSaturn Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 It may sound odd, but this reminds me of the Moody Blues in their prime. Well, if they'd been allowed to mess around with video game samples and suddenly developed a penchant for heavy drums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Veovis Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 The title says it all. Incredible. I love 80s music, so naturally this song appeals to me. The lyrics are creative, great and almost give Robo real emotions. The music is addictive and will always stick in my head. My favorite CT remix. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
