Incidentally, he was our only non-posted (or to-be-posted) remixer on the project. Bryan gets credit for 99% of the arrangement here- I jumped in at some point to add a little bit of chiptune flair and some production enhancements, and then enlisted the help of ProtoDome for some live sax. The end result turned out to be a pretty cohesive amalgamation of style and skill. Enjoy! Insixfour's comments: One word to say.. FINALLY! We started this mix well over a year ago when the project was just taking off, so it's about time! Great song from a great game, and I can't wait to work on our next collab! source: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 Cool arrangement, nice builds, and good sax playing- this really has some nice details that really shine. Great performance, all kinds of cool features, and etc. etc. It's good, features the source in a really classy way, and I want to vote yes on it, so I will.

DragonAvenger Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Odd that there is so little to say about this. Andrew's right that "classy" is just the right term for this mix. The source is treated well, with nice subtle changes. Sax playing is good, and of course the chippy feel adds some texture. YES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Classy is indeed the word. Nothing to add really. Sax, chips and rock'n'roll. MYES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpable Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Really nice drums, love the sound of 'em. I wouldn't say the blend of disparate styles and instruments totally works for me - halc's usual chippy stuff seemed a little out-of-place - but for the most part, I admire the ideas here and enjoyed the arrangement. The mixing was slightly weak though. The elements didn't quite gel together in terms of sounding like they are in the same space, and the volume levels could have been tweaked. Not a dealbreaker, but I think it could be improved. Overall, adds up to a and a . YES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
