The Orichalcon Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 TO'S NOTE: I couldn't see this up here, so I don't know what the deal is with this track. But I kinda promised Rexy to get it fasttracked to a revote, so I'm taking the liberty of posting it up. -------------------------------- Remixer 1 Name: Rexy (real name: Bev Wooff) Webpage: http://www.studiorex.co.uk (yes, that's been revived recently!) OCRemix user ID: 7528 Remixer 2 Name: Brandon Strader last time >_>) Webpage: http://www.bstrader.net OCRemix user ID: 3123 Remix info:- Remix title: "Hogtied" Game covered: Sonic the Hedgehog 1 (both the Genesis and Master System versions) Individual songs covered: Boss (Genesis) [main], Scrap Brain Zone (MS), Boss (MS) --- Rexy here again. Thank you for the feedback on the original Sound of Speed version; we've taken it to heart (well, at least I did) and have come together with a polished up mixdown. All information in regards to the arrangement process can be seen in the original decision thread. I admit, I was annoyed to see the track get pulled from the TBP list the first time around but the general feedback issued from the original submission was definitely a good foundation to improve on. Here I improved on the drum programming and humanised the organ part on the intro, while it was up to Brandon to take all the production concerns and address them here. We've received good feedback from CHz, TO and OA for this one, and I hope what we've done is enough to get it ready for primetime. In its original form, I noticed that it became one of the project favorites among fans (most common reason being the SMS cameos), and that alone spurred me to encourage Brandon to co-operate with this resub. In both cases, he was a pleasure to work with, we DID do a second arrangement together since the project's release, and we were glad to be part of the overall process. I hope you receive this track well, and thank you in advance for your considerations Peace out, -Rexy- ------------------------------------ The mixdown is better, things don't feel quite as crushed together this time around. The drums are still a little muddy for me, I would've liked some more powerful highs to bring them out of the dry background. The guitar is the same as before, so any judges who had issue with the timing will find the same problem. I don't mind the timing on the guitar. This is polished enough to pass for me, although I think it could be slightly more polished, there's no real need to do it if the artists are happy with it.

OceansAndrew Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I felt this was strong enough to pass the first time through, and it feels a good deal more cohesive with the resub. Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkeSword Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I liked this before, so I'm just going to copy the nice things I said from my last vote. Great arrangement. Straightforward, but still expands. ... Love the organ stuff at 2:20. Still some really minor timing issues on the rhythm guitar, but to err is human, right? Or something. Anyway, just like last time, not a dealbreaker. Let's just get this thing posted. JEEZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
