m68030 Posted May 16, 2002 Posted May 16, 2002 Arkanoid 'Navel Lint Dub' Have i mentioned I love mutagene's music? his dub is magic. download this now. stop reading this now, go download download download! Quote
krispy Posted June 19, 2002 Posted June 19, 2002 Very laid back and just cool, escpecially with headphones. Unless you hate Dub with a passion you should defiinetley listen to this song atleast once. Alot of ambience and background affects constatnly going on with a simple, but good drumtrack. Yummy. I give it a 9/10, recommended. Quote
skawttieboy Posted June 26, 2002 Posted June 26, 2002 Starts out the same way as a the Arkanoid 2000 Remix...very nice beginning IMO. I like how laid back it is....very nice! Great remix overall! Quote
Kamikaze Noodle Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Makes ya wanna just lounge. I love how things are reverbed like mad to give it that "you're stoned like a rock" feel. I like it. I'm intelligent. Are you intelligent? Quote
Durinthal Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 Quite nice and quite deep bass in this one, with a laid-back and ambient feel overall. My primary and solitary complaint is that the drums overpower the bass in most places, but that could just be my computer. Only reason it won't end up on my regular playlist is due to the limit I'll have on time. Quote
Selios Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 I havent heard lots of dub among the remixes, but this definitely is dub, and hi quality. Sounds a little like Kruder & Dorfmeister, am I wrong? Maybe the drums got a little too much treble, but my gear at the moment isn't very reliable. Quote
watkinzez Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 Yes! Some variation on the source material. This starts off identically to Chris Abbott's '1999 (2000 Mix)', but veers off in a completely opposite direction. Obviously, this is what Mutagene does best- creating an aural soundscape to relax to and lose yourself in. Cool beat and solos. This one's a keeper, for the people who only want the cream of the crop. Quote
RimFrost the Tourianist Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Quite trippy and spacey. Good bassline. It's kind of a mix between generic reggae music and the dark dimension music of Metroid Prime 2. And it does it's job well of relaxing the soul Quote
Nineko Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 The introduction of this remix is like WTF. Download this if you like this genre. Quote
Liontamer Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 Yeah, the intro definitely caught my ear back in the day. Out of all the Arkanoid mixes I heard back in '02 when I listened to all the OCRs, this was the most interesting one. This is some seriously good dub, and I always respect the mixes that work the most creatively and interpretively with the source material. Well arranged, well produced, this would easily pass today's standards. Always a favorite. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 chiiiiiill. Holy crap this is laid back. I'm in a pretty serious sleep-deprivation mode right now, so this track while at work is *dangerously chill*. Putting it on repeat only amplifies the chillosity, and Not quite what I normally look for, as it isn't BIG BIGGER BIGGEST in terms of grandiose and epic melodic lines, but it is very well produced and super deep. A lot of thought went into this, and I have to say that though it's not my first choice for something to listen to, I certainly wouldnt turn my nose up at it. Super extra mega bonus points for how old the mix is. Very very few mixes would hold up this long afterwards. Quote
Echo Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Very laid back and chilly. djpretzel's description about smoking some ganja and playing arkanoid is spot on too. Track manages to keep things interesting for the whole length and instruments are of surprisingly good quality. Quote
Marmiduke Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Real mind-sinking music here. It's definately a powerhouse in terms of its specific genre. Conceptually, its textbook dub music. It makes no excuses for it, and noone is really looking for them anyway. It does one thing and one thing well. To say it is typical of the genre doesn't mean it has no sense of identity, though. The seemingly ageless production values and added pieces of expansion make this a very early benchmark for the genre, even today. I wouldn't say you necessarily had to be a fan of dub music to enjoy this - but if you hate the genre, this mix will hate you too. Quote
ChaosPlayer Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Kick ass. I love it. A+ must listen sound track, simple to listen, smooth beats. Quote
Skinner3D Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 lovely bit of work. I can't actually listen to this and work on my computer at the same time. The bass is so floor maulingly deep that I can't concentrate on the task at hand. Quote
TheCD1 Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 The chill is still going strong on my playlist. Classic game, classic remix 😎 Quote
