Name of games remixed: Sonic 2 & 3 Name of songs remixed: Chemical Plant Zone & Ice Cap Zone Comments: So... I decided to remix Chemical Plant and Ice Cap together, because I thought it went pretty well together. A key change later, I was working on it. Don't know what else to add.

Liontamer Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 http://www.zophar.net/gym/SK+SONIC3.RAR - 12 "Icecap Zone 1" http://www.zophar.net/gym/sonic2.rar - Chemical Plant Zone Decent stuff, although the sounds are really generic. Nonetheless, the groove bias is there. The melodic synth lead was really thin; it doesn't give any depth to the track. That little "bird tweet" effect that hangs on the melody's notes starting at :54 is slightly piercing. The piano playing the Chemical Plant Zone at 1:22 is MIDI-grade and VERY quiet. Punch it up more, and beef up the piano with some effects. It taints other parts of the track with its robotic application. The constant percussion/kick/bass synth groove starting at 1:22 gets tired by 2:10 or so; you've gotta to change the feel up a bit, but also do it sooner. Work to provide contrast so that the listener isn't burnt out on the idea so soon. Chemical Plant theme is brought in again at 2:17, before going back to Ice Cap later on. The barely-changing groove and basic synth design wears thin after a while. The groove elements generally overshadow the melodic content too much. Some of it needs to be scaled back to allow the arrangement to shine more. Decent, but it would need a fair amount of work to refine things and polish it up.

analoq Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 this is a few steps above the kind of instant-rejection fodder and a step above the FL noob stuff we get. unfotunately that doesn't put this anywhere close to the bar. this is the work of a novice or an adequate musician making a token effort at eurodance. let's see some more creativity, or at your preference: better execution. no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vig Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 this is very straightforward....very little subtlety. everything about it is pretty generic, and nothing about it is particularly creative. more creativity please. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Such ridiculously repetitive percussion; that snare fill get overused really quickly. Sounds are pretty generic; the lead in particular sounds really weak, especially when Chemical Plant Zone comes in. Hard to hear it. This whole song is pretty repetitive. It doesn't really build at all; right off the bat the energy level is pretty much set in stone; it plataeus really early. Needs more creativity and better execution.
