Saunders Posted May 16, 2002 Posted May 16, 2002 Streets of Rage 2 'Da Streets' Piano and saxophone. Nice mellow mix, but not my style, I don't really dig it personally. Well done though. Quote
AnotherOneBitesTheDust Posted February 16, 2003 Posted February 16, 2003 While smooth and mellow as Saunders says, there is also that element of chill brought out by that wonderful flute sounding sample, similarly experienced in feeling with what Avien's FF3 'Winds of Eternity' brings (see what people are raving about it here). 2:00 is my favorite part, as it strays into another melody, and is a nice change from the rest. I've never played the game but I've heard some of the original music, and all of it is exactly the opposite of this genre. Therefore much must have been done with this, and with the FF3 'Mix sounding similar, we can tell Avien sure likes this type of music! Quote
PassivePretentiousness Posted February 24, 2003 Posted February 24, 2003 Streets of Rage 2 is probably the last game that needs it, but it's good to have another decent non-techno remix. I'm not sure if I'd really call this "jazz", but it's mellow and fun enough. Any of you anti-techno, "I run when I hear an artificial base beat" crowd should like this. 7/8 Quote
The Berserk Fury Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 Normally i wouldent even touch jazz but, this is great. You used great soundfonts. Quote
Mr. Dillznick Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Wow I really love this song. I'm glad you took one of the few slow/sad songs and made a jazzmix out of it, instead of using one of the upbeat themes. The sax is very good in this, and the strings in the background are very nice too! This was one of my favourite themes anyway so Kudos on making such a superb mix for it!! Quote
Alianger Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 very nice..i hear you played around a bit with the piano chords, and it turned out pretty cool. the flute reminds me of a beautiful tuxedo moon song called in a manner of speaking.. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Very classy mix. The sax is sequenced nicely and the counterpoint synth is PERFECT. A very somber mix, beautifully done. Highly recommended. Quote
MechaFone Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 The intro. Integral in every game. It was handled perfectly here, so perfect in fact, that when I made my SOR2 cd, I added this next to the original intro song, back to back. A perfect rendition of said intro. Don't miss this. Quote
DragonAvenger Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 I really like this mix. Sounds are nice, and everything meshes quite well together. More people should be getting this one. Quote
justinj212 Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 very awesome mix, focuses a bit more on the "streets" than on the "rage." kind of a different take on the beat-em-up game, and I like it a lot. good work! Quote
Bahamut Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 The volume levels need to be raised overall - it sounds too faint. This is a kinda nifty mix, but I felt more could've been done with it for as slowly as it progresses through the melody, especially with that extended ending. Quote
42 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 While I really appreciate this mix's methodicalness, pacing, and mood, I don't really care for the saxophone samples nor really the sound scape itself. It doesn't really feels like it does a whole lot, not quite exactly spinning its wheels but... I dunno. Maybe this track just isn't clicking with me. The ending is especially blah with the sax repeating itself over and over. Anyway, I personally don't really care for this track. Quote
