Mega Man 3 - Intro \ Title Screen

[sknocturnal]

I put somethings together rather quickly and came up with this. Feedback and Opinions are welcome.

i like the idea, not so much the drums xD... try maybe with more overheads, i can barely hear the hihat, and definitly there's no crashs. i would give more work to the drums

First of all, mixing issues:

In the slower section, the mix is very bass heavy. The drums need to come up, the bass guitar needs to be quieter, and I think the kick is kind of resonant sounding.

Speaking of bass, get that bass doing something. It's just holding out notes, and I know from experience that it borings up songs. Have it play interesting rhythms and riffs, and most importantly, make sure there is space. Silence can be just as important as the notes that are heard.

Anyway, the biggest problem is that I'm not sure that this is really a remix. You basically just made an electric guitar transcription of the Mega Man 3 title screen music, and that's not how you get something accepted to ocremix. You have to have some variations on the source material. So yeah. Put your creative juices to work. Make something interesting.

The first few seconds did not contribute to the song, IMO. It felt off-tempo.

Guitar sounds mechanical and definitely fake. Too many hammer-ons and portamentos. Bass guitar is too loud near the 60Hz range.

Sounds like it was just instruments replacing prewritten MIDI.

I dont really play video games that much. That being said, I am familiar with the source material here and this sounds more like a cover than a remix. Nothing wrong with that if thats what you intended, however there are some great remixes on this site (Passing of the Blue Crown is my favorite OCREMIX last time I checked) so it would be nice to hear a bit more creativity. Also, my experience is in electronic dance music and electro-industrial/synthpop (so take this with a grain of salt) but I feel this mix has too much sub bass. Tone down the sub 100hz range (I don't have a spectral analyzer that works outside my DAW so I cant tell you the precise frequency)

All things considered, it still sounds pretty cool. Megaman FTW.

Thanks for all of the feedback guys and thanks for listening. I just threw this together rather quickly. I'm sure I'll go back someday and correct somethings. I have a habit going back and remaking certain songs.

Here's another late bump.

I think the same
