Chen Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Congratulations BrainCells! I've become a great fan after I listened to this excellent arrangement. Super C was awesome despite being less popular than the original, it deserves some recognition at least. And here it is. I hope to hear more from you. Kudos to this man.

Kadosho Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Super C -the other one I havent played it in long while. Excellent composition with Stage 2's theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icct Hedrix Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 After listening to my "Lamb of God" CD this just doesnt sound heavy enough. Then again nothing does when you compare it to LoG but thats not the point. Really, this track didnt impress me much. It repeated to much and sounded like it came from a badly copied disc. This is one of those very few mixes I dont like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ella guro Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 It manages to establish the original tune, expand on it some, and still not outstay its welcome. The guitar playing is awesome, which is something people have come to expect from these types of mixes. The drumwork is also stronger than usual, especially around :47 - that brief break before the mix resumes rocking is one of the little things that distinguishes this mix from a lot of the other "NES-metal" mixes. And while it may not incredibly different in the end, it's well executed nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Work of high quality. Nice guitar and beats. Great realism in this stuff. I liked the energy placed here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brim Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Awesome guitar work, realistic as well. Thumbs up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobbynob Littlun Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Nice drumwork. Instruments sound really good, and the distortion is really "clean". I like the bit that starts at 0:46 - makes the subsequent heavy rock even heavier by contrast. Okay, so the orchestral hits at 1:54 are fake, but what can ya expect?

Demko Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 hmmmm...ok. Not a lot to add to the other's comments. I love the guitar, the beats and the idea. Wow! Excellent job, guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camelchild Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 With this mix there's about 3 seconds of warning that this is one massive heavy fest throughout, before the guitars rip through your ear drum and chisel you out a new cerebral cavity. It took me a little while to get used to such an abrupt intro, but once that was behind me I couldn't get enough of this mix. Fantastic stuff, definetly worth 3 minutes of your life (or make that 300?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Great tone and playing. Some heavy rhythm, and some great shredding leads. I especially enjoyed the brief interlude with the military snare patterns before the solo section. Some really nice runs in there. Overall a nice and tight arrangement. Compact and filled with some delicious riffage, then deep fried and served with sour cream and salsa. Mmm Ok, I think it might be time for lunch.

Marmiduke Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Unlike a lot of chiptunes transformed into monsterous heavy metal mixes, I still think this one retains all its videogame music roots. The realism is there, but this sounds like a videogame melody, which is in no way a negative statement. Usually the faithfulness to videogame music arrangement is the first thing stripped away in order for a heavy metal remix to sound realistic enough. I really love how this retains those quick and complex choruses that make it unmistakably game music. That's not to say it sounds like it is out of a NES game. I'm not insane. The guitar work is absolutely stellar, while not excessively hard and loud, are more than suitable for me. A rocking mix born out of a lot of talent and some great creative decisions. Terrific work.

duane Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 my face just melted. metal mixage at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eino Keskitalo Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Superb on all fronts. The rhythmic change-ups, the break with a bit more distant sound, great, tight playing. Really liked the subtle synths. Cool source tune and recognizably, yet creatively interpreted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjjD Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Man, right from the start this one is pretty brutal. Excellent guitar tone, some intelligent playing and nice changeups. The fill at 0:40 is masterful. Some of the soloing, especially at 1:11, is awesome. Kinda makes me sad that BrainCells hasn't put anything out on the site for almost a decade now. The drums can feel a little weak at times, but the tight arrangement and mixing definitely fuel the remix more than enough and it's easy to overlook the use of a drum machine. Really like this tune.
