Navi Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Amazing. I'm a huge new age/euro/whateveryouwannacallit fan and this song manages to encompass everything i love about the genre. Reminiscant of Enigma, Deep Forest, etc (right down to the drumloop ) which is only a good thing in my mind. C64 remixers have some amazing stuff and I'm glad this found its way here. Quote
Moguta Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Nice to see another Kwed remix make its way over to OCR. =D The first time I downloaded & listened to it, the vocal loop put me off. But I came to realize how well it fits in with the song... which has been one of my favorites for quite a while now. So smooth & groovin' you can't help but chill. Quote
Jillian Aversa Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 AHHHHHH! I second what Myth has to say. I'm also a huge New Age fan, and suffice it to say that I'm *really* digging this. The arrangement never gets boring, your vocal samps are used brilliantly, and the outcome is flawless. I have not a single complaint. Seriously... I LOVE this! I haven't been this excited about a new mix in quite some time. Kick ass! (Waits for Gray's review... I'm sure he'll dig it as well.) Quote
SirRus Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 pimp is definitely the adjective to describe this. wow. (Waits for Gray's review... I'm sure he'll dig it as well.) haha yeah i was thinking the same thing... he didnt judge the song but as soon as the tabla came in I knew Gray would be all about this one! haha Quote
Ichitootah Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 This is really nice, a very calming listen. The instruments all sound so vibrant, this is truly awesome stuff. Quote
PlastikBag Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 An instant favorite. I really enjoyed this one. Everything sounds so vibrant in this. Quote
Assface Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 I might listen to it again, but nothing overly exciting. Quote
GrayLightning Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Lots of electro-new age mixes lately. We have another one in the panel waiting to be posted. I was meaning to vote on this, but I forgot. I think the keyword of the day here is slick. While I'm personally uncomfortable with the use of loops, thankfully the rest of the mix and the supporting elements are fantastic. The famous enigma loop is still pretty damn sweet though. I really like the texture of the mix, and the instrumentation is just wonderful. Production is superlative, everything just clicks and sits well in the mix. Tite. Quote
Tex Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Quite amazing. My only complaint is about the drumloops. But the instrumentation is pure fun. It´s curious. My favourite part is when the vocals did some panning effect. The beginning get a rest to do a relevant part at 00:48. I love it, very ethnic and electronic. Overall, this is a great ReMix. I will look for some New Age stuff, because I liked what I found now. Quote
Cadmus Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Great chill piece. The stuttered voices work perfectly with a consistent bassline, and nice synths in the background (alternating with the voices) create a very nice vibe. Great work, hope to see more! Quote
Mog Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 First off, I would like to say great work However, can we get a link to the original (not re-encoded) version? I would just like to see how much of a difference there are; there's some parts that sound a bit more staticky, not sure if it's intentional. It's not to the point of grating, but I was just wondering if it was due to the samples used or the encoding. Quote
Red Shadow Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 I want to say that, due to the majority of the instruments used, it's too mellow for me. But I can't. I really enjoy this. Quote
Lukien Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 A truly beautiful piece. Like any worthy track composed by Enigma, this makes me feel relaxed and content. Good job! Quote
RimFrost the Tourianist Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 An Enigma-inspired new-age elektronika remix ? Why the heck not..It sounds really great. I fell for the mellow flowing sounds directly. And then hooked for like 5 loops or more until i could press stop. Damn fine quality new-age here Quote
kyouteki Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 Is it just me, or does this ReMix conjure up images of Sonic CD USA? This is in the vein of some of Spencer Nielson's work for that game. Not to say that's a bad thing, because it's not. Quote
jorgandar Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 great work.. but the drum intro at 3:49 is a little too loud. it made me go "oooo! ouch" my ears. A little compression there wouldnt have hurt. the rest is great though. Quote
Shael Riley Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 This is the freshest, most creative and rawly powerful OC ReMix that's been posted in a long time. I'm surprised the Judges let it on. Fantastic work, DHS. My hat is off to you. Now I want to dig up a C64 emulator and play this game for the first time, and that is the mark of a good game-music arrangement. Quote
Master Spram Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Awesome. Some 2-3 years ago I was making a game (get it here: http://www.chispito.com/~guio/Ram/HQ.zip ) and I needed some midi music... So I find this really good tune for a game called "Human Race" that I've never heard of before.. So I decided to use it.. And that's the same song that's remixed here, it's wonderful! Anyway, I don't know about the technical aspects of the song, but it's good, I'll keep listening to it even if I had never heard the "original" before. Quote
DarkeSword Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 YES! I loves me some DHS. Subtune 1 (Infected Edit) from Apidya is one of my favorite songs, and this song right here looks like it's going to join the ranks. Such a sweet beat; feels slightly indian, which is always nice for a guy like me. Groovy beats, awesome soundscape, perfect production. I love it. In other news, I've removed two posts from this review thread. I ask that forum members only post their comments about this mix, rather than taking a potshot at the judges panel or providing a rebuttal thereof. Any further discussion can be taken to PM. Quote

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. Shael and Liontamer both: take it to PM and keep it there. Two sets of posts have been moved to Abuse. Quote
dhs Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Thanks for the reviews dudes. I really appreciate them bye. Quote
