Taeaekkae Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 It's been a long time since I last time tried to remix something. I chose this song from NDS's latest Castlevania game Order of Ecclesia. I took inspiration from finnish humppa-band called Eläkeläiset. It's still on very early stages production wise, but you get the idea what I'm doing. http://tindeck.com/listen/nhxe EDIT: Tweaked it a little bit http://tindeck.com/listen/prqk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magellanic Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm getting flashbacks of carnivals and Mr.Bungle songs hehe. This is very quirky and bright. Rather charming stuff. With more polish this will be a very entertaining mix. You already said yourself this is early on production-wise so I won't say much, but with some attention to the mix it could really give this some more life. (Is it normal to be wanting to chant "Hey" in time with the beat at the start of this? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anterroir Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Wooaaah - big smile on the other side of the screen. Just needs some additional brass stuff going on and a more fleshed out mixed and it's a killer. *thumbs up* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I actually enjoyed this remix. I like the genre you chose and the instruments you used. Watch the chords about halfway through the song, though. I look forward to seeing it finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taeaekkae Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 I decided to continue this remix. It now includes an organ solo which is pure madness. I tried to make it sound like it's been smashed with hammer or something http://soundcloud.com/taeaekkae/dracula-ja-kalalokki-humppa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sykodx469 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Wow, this is one enjoyable mix. - Evil polka? Heh, sounds like it. I can easily imagine large vocal harmonies ala-Weird Al Yankovic over this track. But as it is, it is quite good! - The inclusion of the circus theme in spots put a grin on my face. Genious. - The break in the middle was a nice inclusion, especially with the beach/seagull samples. Gave the impression that the whole outdoor carnival is...twisted. Especially with the madness that starts up at 1:26. - At only 2:47 though, it feels as if it ends very abruptly. Are there plans to extend the song, or is it designed to be this short? Either way, very strong stuff. Please continue working on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
