djpretzel Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix. Quote
halc Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 to give just a little more info on the mix itself, this is the first time I actually utilized sidechaining/'gain pumping', which is what creates the pumping/fading effect on the bass and various other instruments. if I switch it off, the whole mix instantly becomes a nasty brickwalled mess of sounds. fun stuff. ;D Quote
Draconiator Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 Woah. This is kind of different. The beat kind of throws me off, which keeps stuff interesting. Nice take on the theme too. 5\4 FTW. The only thing I don't like is that SLIGHTLY detuned flute thing. Other than that, ace, dude. Quote
BlackPanther Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 Haha dude halc I totally love your shit man. 3/4? Straight sickness if you ask me. It's got that loveable, playful sound to it, with funk added and signature 8 bit elements to top everything off. Nice pumping effect too, listening on my monitors, can't wait to listen on my earbuds =D. Another great piece sir. Quote
Squint Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Halc, you've quickly become one of my favorite artists here on OCR. I know you've been arranging for a while, but I only just really started paying attention to artist names, much thanks to you and your distinct style. Just about everything I've heard from your stash is top notch, which makes your prolificacy (pretty sure that's a word) that much more impressive. Keep it going, man. Quote
ryudo6850 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 This song is great. The way the beat seems to have a constant "reverb/pulsing" feel to it makes it seem very aquatic. I am also surprised I have been downloading songs of yours and brigg's for a while(You know ala-lurker) but I haven't seen either of you do many of the final fantasy songs aside from the FFX remix of yours. None-the-less much respect for this wonderful piece of work. Perhaps one day I'll see a Final Fantasy Tactics remix from you ^^; Quote
PROTO·DOME Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Best bit is the awesome textures you got going on thar - especially the air behind the kick. A brillant track man, your style has never been so distinctive as it is right now. Quote
Martin Penwald Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 It's got that loveable, playful sound to it, with funk added and signature 8 bit elements to top everything off. This this this this. I wouldn't necessary limit it to 8 bit, actually; a lot of it gives me a 16 bit vibe (considering the source, what I just said is a pretty hurrdurr statement, but you know what I mean). Quote
ectogemia Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I love this mix, man. It's in my top 10 for sure. Quote
Mirby Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Again, the FF5 soundtrack needs more love. And this is a step in the right direction. A wondrous take on the source, and again, some really great chipwork here. Quote
Crulex Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I feel sort of Pokemon at Sea-ish with this ReMix, if that makes any sense. It seems to me that light, watery tunes lend themselves really well to chiptunes, and who better than Halc to bring that out? Speakers don't seem to do this justice without headphones and the pulsing feeling. Cool stuff, man. Quote
Necrox Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Man, this is just excellent for this source. Like there's really not much to say except that this mix completely nails it. The whole outro is perfect. As a FFV fan, it's great to see this underrated source get such a fitting remix. Quote
