The Dual Dragons Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 So... we love Mortal Kombat, decided to do a ReMake, and here it is! Actually we finished this one quite some time ago, but got a little lazy on actually releasing it. It's one of our personal favorites of what we've done. It contains Frank Johansen's wicked Vocals. Hope it is enjoyed... http://www.thedualdragons.com/Dual%20Dragons%20Music/Mortal%20Confrontation.mp3 We might make a video too, already tried but horrible lack of quality footage of Scorpion and Sub-Zero fighting. Oh well.. ENJOY! YEAH!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabeel Ansari Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I can't hear Mortal Kombat. Can someone help me find it? T_T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 It's a medley of the , The Subway and maybe other songs I don't recognize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabeel Ansari Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Oh okay, i thought this included the actual iconic Mortal Kombat theme. EDIT: Unless the game didn't include that... In which case it's a very bad game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dual Dragons Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Heehee.. Glad you guys like it! For clearance on the source material, here are the track names: In the beginning - Character selection screen (MK1) Character selection screen (MK D. Alliance) And The Subway (MK & MK3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dual Dragons Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Bump in hope of a little more appreciation, we did give a lot of effort you know!! LOL!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Escape Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 This is pretty good. I can hear some production value. One thing I noticed is that you set the compression too high to get it louder (I can hear it soft clipping, which is a bummer). The drums are arranged, and they sound it. Nothing bad there, just maybe a little more velocity and humanization changes could be made to give it that rock drummer feel. The guitars might be a smidge loud as well, but nothing unbearable there. The vocals are a nice touch, and the delay/verb setting suits it well. The bass is a little muddy and I can't quite hear what it's doing, but I know it's there. Maybe a little cut around 1500-200 Hz would clear it up (or a boost at 1K to give it more definition). All in all, it's a decent track that suits the theme well. Good job guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in large section of the tune the bass is very present as the main focus in the backing. The drums are in your face just the way we want it, we love it when it's played very tight. We could make it more 'human' in every little detail, but we prefer not to. We don't see the negative in doing and making sounds that aren't always natural to perform in real.

Theophany Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Holy shit, Dan. This is amazing. The guitar performance is crazy good. I don't think I've ever heard you play that fast, and it doesn't sound mechanical at all. The synths sound great, as usual. They have a very analog feel and it fits perfectly with the song. The production is really clean, the arrangement is awesome... quality remix guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunther Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Not a big fan of MK games, and don't know so well their OSTs, but anyway I listened your song in one of the last DoDs, I find it cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, glad you liked it. Anyways, you should check out Dan Forden's music from the Mortal Kombat games, he is brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
