mnmisha Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 I like it Good job, It is much better then the original one that I have from the Lunar soundtrack. Quote
Spastic_Hobo Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Wow, this remix is great. you had me rolling on the floor for a good 2 minutes. Thanks djp Quote
Hoshiakari Posted February 9, 2005 Posted February 9, 2005 In all honesty, you have a decent voice. I've been singing for the past 13 years and know that there are far, far worse out there. Not to mention, it was entertaining. I sang that song for the talent show in 9th grade. Quote
HunterKiller Posted February 9, 2005 Posted February 9, 2005 I'm not into this type very much, what with the electrical instruments, but it was still very nice. Quote
xenobrain Posted February 13, 2005 Posted February 13, 2005 This mix is foremost a victim of the poor vocal recording quality. Pretz really isn't a bad singer at all, in this mix (obviously very early) he doesn't have much control, but that kind of thing can be fixed with practice. I really like his voice as well As for the mix, I'm a sucker for the sharp percussion, (like Protricity's DK Mine Cart mix) though I usually prefer mixes that are a little denser (Khalal's FF6 Devil's Lab comes to mind as one of my favorites).

dezoris Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 Thats a tough one, to start with the original track was extremely bad considering the rest of the music in the game. I give you credit for trying. The girl in the original was straight out of an 80s hair band. Quote
irCuBiC Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 AAALLL THRUUUUU THEEE NAAAIIIGGHHHTTTTT! ...Ahaha, I must say it was, as they say nowadays, "BERY GUD!" The singing was adequate enough to not ruin the remix(especially the part quoted above =P), and the mix itself is good, so *thumbsup* Quote
MisterBiggler Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 Your song makes me smile, djpretzel. I would be interested to hear this song done with better vocal quality, because it's what the pulls the song down. But I do like it; it makes me remember me and my own friends doing karaoke and impressing the shit out of several people in the room. My hats off to you for the putting yourself out there. Quote
Square-EnixLover Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I love this remix. It was done very well, but unfourtunatly, I can't compare it to the Sega CD version of the game, because I have only played the PSX version, but that doesn't matter. Very well done, and I think you are very critical on your vocals, I thought they were fine. Quote
Kizyr Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 Er... you have a very interesting voice, DJP. Though, I can't deny that listening to this song does make me smile. KF Quote
Liontamer Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 This is the best remix on the site. Hahahaha! Nice timing. Quote
Ryu2Wolf Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 Ha man, this isn't too bad. Nice attempt for your first. I know I can't sing worth crap! XP Quote
Jenz Drake Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I don't care what anyone says. Like I told him at dinner when he visited Jordan & I in Vegas... I love this song. Quote
Polo Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I like how the choir opens up like a reminder of the human instrument that will lead the mix. Sprinkly percussion is soon joined by an amphibious bass, forming the backbone to support the singing. The synth at 0:44 serves as a welcome stepping stone to the chorus. I would've liked to hear a sparse section where the subtle pad in the back has more air time - it sounds both mysterious and calming. The bass-dominated breakdown really sounds like it wants me to "get down" based on its mini-nosedives. As if understanding the sentiment, the warpy synth at 1:08 has a pleasurable romp before cheekily assisting the vocals in the final section. 1:29-1:31 is a contagiously hopeful mini-climax; it holds my emotions at a high point until the end. Close listening shows that the vocals generally echo the notes in the source, and except for one line, the lyrics match up to the letter. djp's not at fault for the voice cracks and wavers in the louder/higher pitches - male adolescence is to blame. But I digress. On the flip side, his whispers are sexy, even snakelike, especially when noting the "dark storm that soon will paSSSS." Matching the speed of the original leaves some words inaudible, sure, but without lyrics on hand, even the source isn't 100% clear. Moral of the mix: Zorlog needs more lovin'. More time in the sun. Singing Pretzel brims with a holy magic that Fighting Through the Darkness lacks. Quote
Nutritious Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Well, I'm mixed here. The backing track is pretty solid and has some good movement. Vocals, though, I just can't get into. Sorry DJP :/. Big props for putting yourself out there and trying something like this, though. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 The vocal performance was pretty good, but the recording and mixing of it wasn't so hot. The solo was cool, and the percussion was well layered. The mixing does hurt the track a little, but it's definitely not un-listenable, unless of course you hate vocal remixes. Cool that is got some discussion going too. I'd like to hear an updated version. Quote
Bahamut Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 I've always felt like the singing wasn't that bad - this song still has some charm to it. The production is where the song suffers though...I wonder if Dave would ever revisit this song Quote
Kizyr Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 The production is where the song suffers though...I wonder if Dave would ever revisit this song Last year at MAGFest: Me: Didn't you do the vocals on Town Life? GT: That was David actually, not me. Me: ...wait, DJP did that? GT: Yep Me: ...man, he's come a long way since Singing Pretzel KF Quote
Jennyneo Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 I still love this song! One of my favorites here <3 Quote
