DusK Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 I recently did a punk remix of Emerald Hill Zone's BGM. I plan on improvements, and I need some crits. http://www.myspace.com/fromtheforestitself Quote
Rozovian Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 More of a cover than a remix. The drums could use some work. Kick and snare are barely heard, and the crashes are terrible. Even tho it's punk, it could be mixed more clearly. If you want to get it on ocr, you'll have to work on the arrangement more. That's all the crits I have. You should take it to the guitar remixers on #ocrwip, they know guitars better than I do. Sounds like you could get something ocr-worthy (with a bit of feedback), I'm just not sure this is the track that's gonna get you there... at least not without some heavy rewrites. Good luck. Quote
DragnBreth Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Nice! Me likes! That said, I am in agreement with Rozovian. 'Tis more of a cover (which in itself isn't a bad thing. I love the NESkimos, Advantage, and Minibosses, and they're basically just VGM Covers) than a remix. My suggestion would be to listen to Sixto, SnappleMan, BrainCell, Scaredsim, LuIzA (and other amazing guitar remixers on this site that I missed) to see how they remixed the music. Not that you should copy them, but more just to get an idea of what it takes to get a guitar remix on the site. You do have potential and if this one does end up on OCR its going straight to my iPod. Keep working on it and it will get there. Quote
Dafydd Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 This is fun But you should listen closely to some other bands playing similar music and try to improve the mixing a little... Quote
