lawman Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 O_o I must say this is an extremely strange piece of music. Quote
GregCaldwell Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Wow "Intense" is right! This piece of music just owned me silly. Fuckin sweet!!! Quote
Souliarc Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 I've heard this one through Sephire's original work... and until SGX got a hold of it I can see how it would be a blast to make. Great job, totally kickin'! Quote
ILLiterate Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Finally got up on the site, great song since it first started in the WIP forums. Good job on both remixers parts Quote
Mono Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 I've been looking forward to this since checking out an early version on the WIP forum. Since then, SGX has worked wonders with the production - it's terrifically dirty, without ever getting muddy. And Sephfire has done a great job of transforming a simple little ditty into a dark, brooding arrangement. I'd say this is up there with Glass Cage as one of the best of OCR's more liberal mixes.

Tex Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Wow. When a mix from mario games is released is always expected something with steel drums, square waves or even a piano solo rearrangement. But this is a rare and uncommon exception like "Bowser is Pissed". It sounds more doom than mario. Plenty of variations. Great instruments, with hot industrial beats and epic effects & synths. This one needs to be listened to at least twice to understand the madness sounding. It was very well compressed and mastered both; most of drums are sounding like its playing in a live electronic machine. The reversed samples are just a sweet detail finishing up the track. This is a rare one that will be playing in my memorable library. Thanks. Quote
Sam Ascher-Weiss Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Really Really Cool stuff, so much fun to listen to! Quote
Project R2K Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Woof! Two words: KICK ASS. Love the strings at the begining and the fake ending at 3:34. If I could classify the genre, I'd slide it under "industrialectronic". Sugoi. Daisuki. I'm lurvin' it. Quote
dr_amazing Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 I like it, but except at the beginning and end, I barely hear any mario paint in there at all. If I wasn't told ahead of time, I would have assumed it was a completly orginal piece. Quote
dotSe7en Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I heard this remix in the works in progress remixes forum and I thought it was excellent. Very extreme and intense. Quote
Wicked Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I am totally digging this. This is Mario's evil friggin' twin doing what I imagine to be some emo painting right here and I love it. Quote
Snooper_1989 Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 On first listen when it came out on SGX's site I thought of the song as horrible and destructive. Since then I have recieved new speakers with a hell of a lot more bass which has balanced the song out to make one hell of a remix. See in your stuff in a record store soon SGX and sephire. Quote
Zaid Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 Wow, in the first listen I turned it off after 10 seconds....thinking why is this garbage even on OCR. Then I gave it another listen, and it wasn't anything I expected to be and the begining actually made sense with the end, that it can change so drastically. Impressive way to mess with my head. I love it. Quote
Dark Vagabond Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 It sounds 100% psychotic and 110% incredible. I can do so much ownage while listening to this. Quote
Master Spram Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I can't tell wether I like this or not because I have to listen to music various times to get to like them (it's terrible, I know). But I'll make sure I listen to this, the world needs more Mario Paint musical arrangements. Quote
sgx Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I like it, but except at the beginning and end, I barely hear any mario paint in there at all. If I wasn't told ahead of time, I would have assumed it was a completly orginal piece. The Mario Paint is in there. We actually added the beginning and end parts specifically to present a reference for the original to look for in the rest of the track. It's in there. Specifically, the string hits are pretty obvious. Glad most of ya like it. I hope we were able to rox some sox with this track. Quote
Broken Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I love the string motif that occurs throughout the song. It soon becomes like your pulse; regular (I hope), but dynamic. I like the bombastic drums at 0:22 as they seem to punctuate the piano solo at 0:58. The distortion and synth obviously have to be well implemented and of high quality for a mix like this to fly and it is so, it does. This one's great for Ninja Gaiden Black boss fights. Quote
Citan Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I was really surprised with this remix... In a good way, that is. It's not what I expected for a Mario remix, but I was really impressed. Quote
Azure Prower Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 Kick ass remix. Been a while since I heard one so good. Not too repeatative and the right ammount of excitement. Sounds like it belongs in an action-packed shoot 'em up game. Quote
Dafydd Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I just wanted to pop in here and say Congratulations. This thing has been in the WiP forums for longer than I have, and I'm glad it finally made it. Not that I'm a great fan of it, but because I like to see hard work and persistency pay off. Quote
