Chimpazilla Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) They See Me Rolling - Soundcloud by chimpazilla, anterroir, timaeus edit 4-9-13: added glitching by timaeus, and posted for mod review. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi There! David and I thought it would be fun to take a trip to Goron City and hang out with the big guys for awhile. Turns out they are quite groovy. We are still tweaking this but we consider it 98% finished. We will still be working with the vocals to make sure David can be heard over the backing, while maintaining all those fun effects. At this point in our production, we thought it would be a great idea to get feedback from our fine OCR friends. Listen and comment! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics: All my brothers, they see me rolling All my brothers, they see me rolling The guy in green, he sees me rolling The guy in green, he sees me rolling And I'm watching him, watching them, watching me Rolling round, and round... And they're watching him taking out his bombs, To blow me off the ground! It may be a small place, so many of us in it, Yeah we're pretty big guys, with tutus and shit you name it Still we're easy going, smooth, everyone it's alright... Let's roll around the town tonight. Hi there! You see me floating... well... yeah... Come on man, do it again, bomb me, BOMB ME yeeeaaahhhh... All my brothers, they see me floating The guy in green, he sent me floating And I'm watching him, watching them, watching me Floating round, and round... And they're watching him taking out his hook, To pull me to the ground! It may be a small place, so many of us in it, Yeah we're pretty big guys, with tutus and shit you name it Still we're easy going, smooth, everyone it's alright... Let's roll around the town tonight.

timaeus222 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) I think the ambience is a bit held back, because you can fit in a little high end reverb. You still need to flesh out the vocals a bit more, and I'd love to do that, plus some glitch fills. I gots some ideas, if you can send the vocals, snare hits, misc drums, and the rest of the instrumentation separately. Edited March 17, 2013 by timaeus222 Quote
Chimpazilla Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 Awesome offer T... thanks! Let's see what anterroir thinks about that and we'll let ya know! Quote
Nostalvania Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) That's a funny remix, I dig it! Cool idea with the Vocals/Lyrics. I found the bass in the intro at 00:11-00:15 + 00:27-00:30 a bit indistinct. The key change at 2:11 is nice. Edited March 18, 2013 by Nostalvania Quote
Argle Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 honestly, I think it's great. Starts off tribal and then moves into disco. The Teutonic vocals are the icing on the cake. Yeah, it rocks. Quote

Yeah, it rocks. lol - my accent can't be helped @timaeus222: you're welcome -I just want to work on the file a bit more this week Edited March 18, 2013 by anterroir Quote
Chimpazilla Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 lol - my accent can't be helped Well D, I think your voice/vocals/accent are *perfect* for this song! I wouldn't change a thing about them. Quote
anterroir Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 But Imagine that on a love song ! hahahaha Quote
Argle Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 But Imagine that on a love song ! hahahaha You must do a love song now. There is no alternative. Quote
Chimpazilla Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 You must do a love song now. There is no alternative. It's already in the planning stages. Stay tuned. Quote
WiFiSunset Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) This song makes me smile whenever I hear it. It's song is amazingly groovy . I listened to it once yesterday, and it's still stuck in my head. Those vocals are amazing as well. Looking forward to seeing its completion. Edited March 18, 2013 by Cosmic Sounds Quote
Damashii!! Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 mad mad MAAAAAD respect. So hilarious and amusing, yet so good (and catchy AF). I can see why some might be indifferent to it, but I'm thoroughly enjoying this so far. Admittedly, I was kind of expecting a Weird Al parody, but this is much better. Quote
Chimpazilla Posted April 9, 2013 Author Posted April 9, 2013 "They See Me Rolling" Timaeus has joined the Goron team with some subtle yet excellent reverb and glitching effects. Mod review would be appreciated. This will be the submission version unless something truly terrible is wrong. Thanks, and we hope you continue to enjoy this silly little track! It was lots of fun to make. Quote
timaeus222 Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 Sounds good. The only thing I would suggest is to add back a little more of that reverb on the brass section, just so it doesn't sound so dry, and the glitching I had at 2:46 and 2:53 (which I actually felt were minimal and interesting). I also felt that my 808 snare rise at 3:27 was a little buried. Quote
Rozovian Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Dat bass... ...is a bit too loud. The low end could be a bit more controlled, which might yield a little more headroom for a little more loudness. As if this track needed to be louder. Not sure I like the choice of bass drum, but that's me. Not sure about the more or less sourceless verse parts. It's undoubtedly a remix of Goron City, but Larry's stopwatch might have an issue with it. Flows well (bass drum oddities aside), overall mix is fine, lyrics are fun... So yeah, possibly too bassy, possibly too much sourceless stuff, but beyond that, I don't see why this wouldn't pass. Also, it's barrels of fun. /mr Quote
Chimpazilla Posted April 10, 2013 Author Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks Rozo! Glad you enjoyed it. A few final tweaks, a three-way meeting of the minds, and it's off to the judging queue! Quote
