Eckerson Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Breathtakingly epic. It carries the film soundtrack theme well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quakeman224 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I was trying to figure out what the song was remixed from. Took me a second the figure it out and I got to say. Nice work. There is not that many Wolf3D remix I think there should. Yes Doom is better but the music is always amazing on bot hgames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Rich's work is always really classy and well done, but it seems to be more focused on mood and rhythms than melody, which is a very viable strategy, and one that always enhances an experience, but makes it more difficult for me personally to get as invested in the music. This one is no exception, with a very polished and rich soundscape, but a more subdued melody. I keep wishing for those soaring horns to be pushed further forward and really take control, but they are backseat to the rest of the drama. As for telling the story of the opening moments of Wolfenstein, that was completely nailed. Very evocative textures and pacing, but my own bias gets in the way of me fully enjoying it. I certainly respect the skill on display here though, props. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIGI01 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Reminds me of something out of "Battle of the Bulge" or "Where Eagles Dare"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koriantor Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I love the soundtracks to wolfenstein and MoHAA. The style they're done in is just awesome. This track is a piece of amazing music, kudos Me being a band geek, it's always nice to have a mix like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechaFone Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I love a good dramatic orchestral piece! I'm not familiar with this game at all, so it's new to me. Excellent work, well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyXIII Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Excellent work! Reminds me a lot of the score in the film U.S. Marshals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Penwald Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Beckett007 delivers another quality orchestra/OST-like arrangement with high production values. While there's nothing wrong with that, I do wish that the artist would step out of his comfort zone and try something new for future remixes.

Mtlbro Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Wow that takes me back, THANKS Beckette007 !! Isn't it the menu music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underthesun Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 This music is so epic, it would be amazing to see it used in a game. Reminds me of final fantasy tactics battle musics, but a bit more movie soundtrack-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 With a description that includes the words "(your) best remix yet", it's got a lot to live up for. But the writing here is actually well devised; it takes the fundamentals of the source, even throws in a straight interpretation down the line but even ended up using some elements of the accompaniment for some of the calmer moments of the track. I can definitely feel the movie trailer approach to the track, which is good! Even the sounds utilised in this orchestrated setting mostly sound very realistic and appropriately humanised for the most part. The only qualm I seem to have though is that there's not much dynamic shaping until right at the end; it all seems to be at the same kind of general force for the collective instruments until near the end. Though, if that matches with the movie scene style approach to it it may not be a big deal, but it should still be worth pointing out. All in all it's a neatly crafted orchestrated work; these aren't easy to pull off, and to handle something that wasn't meant to be epic like the Wolfenstein source you managed to pull through powerfully. I'll be keeping an eye on you Beckett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Truly cinematic and dynamic in it's sound. Beckett's style is one of the most epic styles you can ReMix in, and this shows how damn good things can get when you take a great source and fill it with grand orchestration and lots of DUN DUN! You really hammered in the drama on this ReMix. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
