Jarski Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Moar MM3 remixes to you guys! (and for me;) So here is a wip tune that I'm working on atm, its Magnet Man this time and the genre is psytrance. I think this is pretty neat start and I'm gonna aim atleast to 4min lenght with this. Give me your thoughts and ideas about this, thx!

2manygentlemen Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I like what you've got going, so far. The overall style is quite pleasing to the ears, and sounds like something you'd hear in Extreme-G (assuming you've heard its soundtrack), especially the new section you put in (0:54-1:20). I think the transition from the aforementioned part back to the original song was a bit abrupt, but otherwise, I've got only positive things to say about it. (Actually, 1:57 to the end does sound a bit sparse, but I'm guessing that's going to be elaborated on; is that so?) Quote
Yami Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Am I dumb or do I hear a bit of Shadow Man? But it sounds really nice + what Dr. Pepper Diet said Quote
Jarski Posted January 15, 2012 Author Posted January 15, 2012 thx for the feedback! no I havent listened Extreme-Gs OST or played it, but I took a listen and the OST was great. I tried to do something to 1:20, dunno if its better now @ 1:40, but I think yes. I also added NES part to end Link: http://jarskie.wippiespace.com/myprojects/wip/PsyNES_-_MM3_Magnet_Man_ReMix_v0.65.mp3 Quote
2manygentlemen Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I like the additions you've made; it's really added to the remix. The throwback to the original with the NES-ish instrumentation is especially good. All I've got to say is to keep adding to it; listening to this mix ends up making me hungry for more. Quote

Cash Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Nice work, I like it! I enjoyed your synth choices. I'm not really a fan of those kick drums. I can't quite say what it is about them that bother me, but they sort of just rub me the wrong way. They sort of sound too hard, or maybe they sound too dry? Other than that, I've got nothing else negative. I look forward to hearing more. Quote
PixelPanic Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 The following was typed while listening on the second play through: -Sounds very nice, very good reverb synth playing lead -The kick drum sounds kinda fake (makes more of a thoop sound than a thump) -I think the drop at 2:56 can be a little more... devastating. Yeah, devastating is the right word. Gotta pump up the bass! -At the end, maybe hold out a note to tell the listener the song is finishing. It feels incomplete in that sense. Quote
Cash Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 -The kick drum sounds kinda fake (makes more of a thoop sound than a thump) This is what I was going for. Quote
Jarski Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 Thanks again for the feedback! I did edit the kick a little bit, but I think I'm not gonna change it, because I like it myself. Yeah, that ending was unfinished, I do the ending when its time to do the endings. ...and now it is the time... Tell me your final opinions, so I can finish this track!

plovianx Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I really dig it. Keep those killer Mega Man mixes coming! Quote
PixelPanic Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Very well done, but just one more suggestion. It's nothing big ,it's just personal. You might wanna add some something to the last quarter or so of the song to give it a bit of a climax, maybe double the lead? Try it out and see what you get, it's not crucial in the slightest and can surely go either way. Again, just a personal thing. Besides that, I think it's pretty good. The song keeps me drawn in and doesn't stray too far from the source, but still leaves great room for original melodies and rhythms. I definitely suggest putting this as a mod-review, though, before fully submitting. Quote
2manygentlemen Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 PP's put it must eloquently. You've got yourself a real solid mix in need of a bigger climax. Beef that ending up and you'll be golden, AFAIC. Quote
