Mykah Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hey OCR! I finished this tech house remix of the Ghost House theme from Super Mario World back in October but forgot to post it here.

DarkDjinn Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 This is probably spookier than the original. Awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykah Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 That's the vibe I was trying to go for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Personally I think the kick is too subby and loud, but other than that, it conveys what you wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I'm currently working on an electro house type remix of the switch palace theme, so it's cool to hear more Super Mario World! I think this is well done and definitely a fun listen. I liked how you put in the ghost sounds. And I'm feeling that spooky vibe. I agree with timaeus about the kick. My other critique is that the remix feels a bit sparse, I think it would benefit from more layers. Also, I think some of those ghost house sound effects were overused. Though house is supposed to be repetitive, so not really a huge deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykah Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Thanks for the feedback timaeus222 and Cash! Yeah I agree with all those points about the kick, sparseness and overuse of the ghost sounds. If I go back to this work on this remix again in the future I will definitely work on those aspects.

Gario Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Nice beat to this one, man - got me bouncing right away. I'm afraid that Cash and Timeaus both are right on the bass of the drums, as it sounds poor when there's so much compression on it. When the little melodic bits come in, they don't work, the way they are since they seem both out of tune with the background instruments that you incorporated, and the timing of the theme is off. 1:04 is an example of this theme, but the issues are the same whenever it comes in. Otherwise, nice and clean, and it's a clever interpretation. Nice work, and I hope whatever advice I can give helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnWake Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 The shape of the sound wave is amazing haha, with some imagination you can picture a couple Boo there. Anyway, I feel most of the comments regarding the song have been said already. Kick is too loud and makes listening to the rest of the stuff very hard. I also think you should layer the sample that plays the melody with something slightly more understandable (and also something that fills the right channel!).
