Assface Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I liked AkumajoBelmont's other 2 remixes on this site, but not so much this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PostNoBills Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Reminds me of those light, inoffensive, post-Robert-Miles Pop-trance tracks we used to get in the mid 90s. I love Akumajo's work, its just fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 ReMix aside painful. Female robot voice sounds awful. Some transitions aren´t bad. But the square wave used between 02:24 and 02:53 has noises of bad quality. Personally I think it could be better. But anyway it´s good enough to be accepted here. I like the panning on the instrumentation and the end, so different. STOP USING FL SLAYER!! PLEASE!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenth Relin Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Unfortunately, this won't play properly on my desktop... Works fine on my MP3 player, though, so yay. It's something different from my collection, and this is a good thing. ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's using FL Slayer??? i didn't use it in this track... and the square wave in the bridge section is a distorted square, so any distortion is intentional Thanks for the comments keep em' coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Who's using FL Slayer??? i didn't use it in this track... I want to know what is that at 01:36. It could be the robot voice. But I think it is the Slayer so hidden. ...and the square wave in the bridge section is a distorted square, so any distortion is intentional My complaint is not the distortion of the square. Never, because it is very cool. The square wave has something strange in terms of quality on this certain period. That´s the problem here.

RimFrost the Tourianist Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 This remix had such great potential. Too bad it's wasted on great anticipation. It tries hard on building up a majestic mood by the robtic sounds and ..suddenly fails hard by the lack of further imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaGi_TekK Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Doh, this song started out pretty good. The first 10 seconds sounded really neet. But as soon as that cornball robot voice came in, I actually couldn't help but start laughing out loud. I would have liked to hear some more things done with the melody and some variety added to the mix. Your playfullness at 2:26 is one example, but I think you could have done a bit better than that. 4/10 my friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Ignore all previous reviews please. For some reason, I have a thing for early 90s trance/pop/dance/club garbage. I do think that the robot voice is extremely appropriate for the type of song this is. Don't listen to this thinking that you will get something other than it is.

PlastikBag Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I guess you can't please everyone... Hey, on the plus side, you sure did please me! I like this one quite a bit. Very slick. I can't believe how many negative reviews this one has gotten. Do not listen to them I say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Cross Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 An interesting piece, to say the least... I like it, overall, though the second stanza of the vocals is incredibly difficult to make out. Had the words not been posted, I would likely have not realized there was a second part to the vocals, and even then, it took me a little bit of effort to register where they were. I cannot say that this piece is one I feel is either good or bad; it is something which will appeal to me at some times, and yet I will dislike it at other times. However, it seems that it is, itself, a moody arrangement, so perhaps this is not so much an issue. Now, as for the robot voice, I think it is actually a rather good addition to this mix. Perhaps, however, it could have been used for more than the vocals. The sound of it is as much a part of the song as is any other part of it, and some of the issue with it may be that the inclusion of the voice is so sudden. The beat of the music goes along very well, and then the robot voice jumps in with no warning, creating some rather interesting waves in the mix. And, on the topic of sudden moments in this mix, its ending comes to mind. It happens so quickly that, on the first listen, I was actually caught off guard and had thought my player had stopped. You bring in a few new sounds, making it seem almost as if you are about to launch into an entirely new section of the mix, but just as some of the pieces become noticeable and the listener begins to focus on them, everything suddenly stops. I can see where this can be used as a major part of the song, an ending to the craft in the game or an ending to the robot/traveler's journey in a rather abrupt (and likely dire) end, but for the piece itself, well... I feel it was just too sudden of an ending. Overall, I feel that this is a good arrangement. Nice job on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Gun Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I've never even heard of the system this game was released on, not to mention the game itself, but I really enjoyed this remix. I thought the female robovoice fit in well, and everything seemed very well put together. I don't normally download remixes of games I've never played, but I'm making an exception for this one.

Wicked Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I'm diggin' this. I don't really have a problem with the voice except that the lyrics are the same over and over and it's a tad bit annoying. I'm groovin' though so no complaints on my end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeOmega Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Hell Yeah! I am seriously digging the past 8 new songs released from OC remix. This is one of them. It just sounds like it belongs in a video game... which is what I always want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Light District Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 It was okay, but there wasn't anything that really stood to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaillen Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I really like this song, it sounds like something Funker Vogt would release on one of his albums. Great work, i'd love to hear more songs like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Pili Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 This is a piece to be played very loudly. The lyrics are cool enough to be engraved on the fuselage of an airplane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiyobi Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 first the Bust a Groove remix, then this! I love it! I think we have a new OCR rising star here, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilHorde Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Haha. Great fun. The vocals really make this remix, it wouldn´t be quite so good without them, but now that they´re there.. YEE-HAW! Vocoders ROCK! Definitely not my style of music, but still this is just awesome. I´m in a good mood after hearing it. The vocoder is just fantastic and the lyrics are super. Awesome vibe. Many great new remixes on OCR in the past few weeks or so.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
