Chris McGee Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Ah, this one is going straight to the playlist. Excellent guitar work; this is as good as it gets. Six thumbs up. Quote
Brodzky Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 I loved this song as soon as I heard it, way back a month or so ago. I recommend this to people with ears. Quote
Requiem Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Not my favorite goat mix, but it's a close second behind Purple Heart. Awesome work goat, as always. Quote
RimFrost the Tourianist Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 A glorious comeback into ocr. NES Castlevania music has always been great source material for heavy metal anyway.. goat = metal remixer overlord Keep up the good work !! Quote
fetusboy Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Frikin' finally! I've been waiting for this mix to hit this site for the past summer! Every single milli-second of it rocks! "The Beginning" is the best song in all of the Castlevania series next to The Tragic Prince. Not only has goat managed to enhance the hardness of the 8-bit's original buzzes and bleeps, but he also adds his own spin offs with loud but pleasant window-breaking guitar work! I love the squel that opens things up, the solo at 2 minutes, the cymbals and strings at 3 and a half minutes, and the wolf howl that ends it off! goat, when people hear of you, they will remember this song. Every one of your other rock remixes here just got served. A shout out to everyone.....download or cry like a baby who just lost his/her pacifier. I love you, goat! Quote
HershDawg Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 Good Heavy metal mix. great job goat at all of it. I escialy like the drums. Quote
benevolensaurus Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 Excellent metal mix... balls-to-the-wall indeed. I'm not even much of a fan of metal, but I love this. Good, great, nice, etc. Quote
Trentdaddy Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 I first downloaded this using Mozilla, and it had some odd skipping or something that made it sound terrible. I read the reviews and I couldn't understand why anybody would call it good, or they just have distinct tastes that I will never understand. So I tried IE, and it came through right. I must say, it is quite awesome. Castlevania has my favorite game music, and I love metal remixes, so this is perfect for me. Very nice ending effects. Hehe, its kinda like it went from being totally marred into being totally perfect. Quote
Fieari Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 This Guitar rocks. This remix rocks. Goat rocks. Rock on! How much more can be said than this? How much more NEEDS to be said? Just listen to it! I am inspired by the rockingness of this rocking remix! Woo! All of it just fits together... its so coherant, and it all works... DJPretz gave a glowing review of this, which is rare these days. But really, this DESERVES it. I'm not sure how you could do this better than it is done here. Rock. \m/ Quote
Baldrash Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 Whoa. Good stuff. My favorite part was the little bit of thunder at about 4'30". Perfect sample; I actually thought it started storming outside. Quote
Scrabble_Ship Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 Great remix. Gotta love those metal/rock Castlevania remixes. Nothing quite like them. Quote
Jogilius Posted September 6, 2004 Posted September 6, 2004 Not goat at its/his/her best, but still goes to prove that goat rocks - even without the -se-postfix. Quote
DJ Tempora Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Not goat at its/his/her best, but still goes to prove that goat rocks - even without the -se-postfix. Suffix. And Goat, you continue to amaze me. This isn't my favorite style, but I still love it. Keep up the awesome riffage. Quote
Ardus Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Wow, excellent work. I can't wait for your next song... Quote
Ravicai Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 While this is one of goat's finest... I don't think people realize he has a website with a lot more music. He doesn't sent everything to OCR. Check out his other awesome stuff at www.powergoat.com Quote
Legion303 Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 I haven't downloaded anything in about a year or so (not for lack of quality remixes, but I just got burned out on vg stuff for awhile), but as soon as I saw this on the front page I said, "hey, goat rocks." So I guess what I'm saying is if you only download one remix this year, make it this one. Incredible guitar work, as always. It reminds me of Mustaine's playing at times. You show a real mastery of fret control. My only complaint is the fake-sounding drums and bass (they actually sound very good, but not *quite* real). I see from your site that you now have a bass guitar, so that should help, but I'd swoon if you made your remixes 100% perfect by getting a talented drummer involved too. Top-notch remix. -steve Quote
draculalucard Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Goat, have I told you lately that I love you? Quote
SixthFlyingMan Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Goat, I have to seriously congratulate you on this. Castlevania has, let's face it, crappy music. Somehow, you managed to create a piece based off of a Castlevania theme and make it good enough for me, who is pretty tanj picky about his music, download it. Good job. Quote
Darangen Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Goat rocks! I had the priveledge of hearing this on vgmix.com a while back, and I'm glad this was passed through the judges panel. Rockin guitars, excellent arrangement, and great production. A++ Quote
Chizniz Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 That damn near one of the greatest things I have ever heard. I like the techno shtuff, but I love it when real instuments are used. Quote
lefty Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Goat, I have to seriously congratulate you on this. Castlevania has, let's face it, crappy music. Somehow, you managed to create a piece based off of a Castlevania theme and make it good enough for me, who is pretty tanj picky about his music, download it. Good job. I don't know what Castlevanias you are playing... Good stuff indeed... kinda reminds me of the Megaman 2 remix Mattias Holmgren did... wish he would submit some other stuff... I'm Jealous Quote
Brim Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Whoa this song is soooo awesome man...I'll probably rave about it in everyway that everyone else has...so I'll leave it at that. The storm effect is the bomb, I told my sister it was storming outside, then I listened to the song again and figured it out... Quote
RimFrost the Tourianist Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Castlevania has, let's face it, crappy music. Blasphemy !! Just listen to Michiru Yamane's songs and you'll be converted Quote
anclunn Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 WARNING! This remix may cause spontanious orgasms! Quote
