OceansAndrew Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 yeah, definitely my favorite halc mix ever. COnsidering he makes like a new remix every hour, that's a lot of remixes, and if this is the best one, that is sayin something! Quote
HitoriJaNai Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 I gotta echo OA here (lol, echo, Echoes of... nevermind); this is definitely my favorite halc mix. Heck, I'm not necessarily as familiar with this source as I'd like, but anything halc touches turns to 9-bit epicness that can only bring joy! Quote
Bahamut Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 I <3 this mix, a great take on Forest Interlude! It's so calming & has chippy goodness to it too. Quote
Benjamin Briggs Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 oh yeah this mix is the pimp shit easily your best yet drew but I've already told you this Quote
AeroZ Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 You got my heart with this one dude. Well done indeed. Awesome beginning, but at 2:25 somewhere you open a whole new world.. Absolutely f''king beautiful. 5 Shiny Stars Quote

Chernabogue Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Dude, where do you find time to make awesome mixes + your EP + projects? XD Nice job! Quote
halc Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Dude, where do you find time to make awesome mixes + your EP + projects? XDNice job! lol. the tricky part is trying to make time for everything else! (yknow, sleep, work, sex, ect.) really though, I just like to have a lot of stuff in progress all at once so I have options as to what to work on, because I tend to knock out a good minute or two of a mix all at once and then get burned out on it. i also tend to finish lots of stuff all at once.

Crulex Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 This is a pretty sweet ReMix. It's nice to hear a chip-chopped 8-bit version of this that sounds good. And there is enough variety to keep the interest going until the end. Nicely done. Hail Halc! Quote
BlackPanther Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Love this source, love this remix, and I love halc =D. Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 And who said that OCR hates chiptunes? This is a great example of how to integrate them into a piece. This is an incredible source tune, and an awesome remix. The use of many different timbres is excellent. Maybe it's just the chiptunes getting to me, but I hear a clear FF reference at 3:02. Halc continues to do inspired work that manages to be both progressive and nostalgic at the same time. Dunno how that works, but I definitely want more of it sooner rather than later. Quote
ad.mixx Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Love this mix. Halc, you are a amazing at drum programming. That's one of my favorite thing about your mixes. I'll be honest this was one of the first remixes I've heard from you (if I recall at least) and I was a bit confused when the lead synth came in at 1:00. It sounded like it didn't fit, but when the bleeps started coming in around 1:20 it all made sense. Good stuff. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 I may be insane but I'm hearing friggin Camel in there Always love me some halc mixes! Quote
Less Ashamed Of Self Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Solid stuff here. Always loved the source tune to death. An amazing, textural, tangible, and flavourful cover. Wholly itself, and wholly faithful to the original. Immediately leapt into my personal top 20 or so. Maybe top 10. Possibly top 5. Best yet for me halc. Quote
Giga Bowser Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 yup, that's me! that was the first song i submitted to OCR (rejected, obviously), but I've always liked the title so it carried over when i made this. i'll upload a zip of my old pre-ocr mixes soon. glad you enjoyed the mix, and thanks everyone else for all the comments as well! <3 edit: http://halc9bit.com/private/oldstuff.zip Wow thanx I'll be looking forward to your future remixes, ofc chthonic as well best combination u too Oh and can't wait for the sound of speed too.

Matt E. Waldman Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 oh GAWD this is amazing. Fantastic work as usual, sir halc! :] Quote
ruskii Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I would just like to say that from 0:46 on, I embarrassed myself at work due to spontaneous grooving to this music. Sorry if I defiled the sanctity of this song with the image of someone grooving to it, but it's true. Thank you, halc. Quote
Pyrohazard Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Halc your remixes are like a bottle of soda, they're cool with a pop to keep em sizzlin. XD Quote
Sir_Downunder Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Maor Forest Interlude... yaaaay! I love the source, and very happy it's been receiving a little more love in the form of a killer Halc mix. I'd go on to say this is probably your best mix to date. Continue on making your blippy goodness, my good man! Quote
