Rayza Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I almost lost this one but Sadorf sent it to me again. Just wondering if anyone thinks this would get a pass from the judges. http://www.rayza.net/misc/music/GeckoYamori,_Rayza_-_Planet_Oil_(Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2).mp3 (This is from 2005, pretty old..)

zircon Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 This is pretty catchy. I think I would probably go with a borderline 'YES' if I had to vote on it.. pretty nice variations you have going on, solid groove, good production, I like it.

SirRus Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I like this a lot. Go for the submission! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraGmenTd Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Am I even allowed to comment on this mix in the presence of Rayza and Zircon? I'm a fan of both of those guys, and this is what I would expect from Rayza. Pretty freaking badass. Since I couldn't hope to find anything wrong with this mix, I will say this deserves to reach the ears of the masses on OCR. *bows* well done, sir. My hat's off to you.

lazygecko Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Oh, I remember this. I never got around to submitting it. As a matter of fact I still have the source file, however your bounced leads are missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltstarfire Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 This sounds pretty cool, but at the same time it's kindof repetitive, it does it's thing then repeats 3 or 4 times... I dunno, it could probably go either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyan Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Yeah, this needs more variation in general. It could use more synthleads to switch between. Also changing the rythm in some places would do, as the song sounds pretty similiar all the way through. Again, this needs more variation in the sounds used. I Think it sounds a bit more like a wip, it's enjoyable, but not there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Penwald Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Ever since I downloaded that song from VG Mix, I've been in love with it. Very powerful stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nineko Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 if I were a judge I won't pass this one. Too close to the original (that's also one of the worst BGMs in Sonic 2, imo), and as already said, too repetitive. Sorry to be so rude, but I find this remix to be meaningless.

DrumUltimA Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I dig this, I love the way the bass works in this arrangement, and the guitarrish sounding synth that does the melody works really well too. I'm gonna have to follow the bandwagon and say that you probably should put some more variation in, but this is hi qual stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocremixfan Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 first of all... I also dislike (I'm being nice) this music in sonic. but the remix is cool... if you're considering it as a WIP, meybe you should do some more arrangement, like many people said. and I don't know if it's just me, but this song had quite an "arabian" touch... mainly in the beggining. it reminded me of belly dance music, until 0:30, when the eletronic stuff begins! I say "touch" because I think that later it lost this feeling... if you intended to make it that way, I think you've forgot it as your worked went on. If that's not the case, maybe you could arrange it that way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyan Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hey, on a sidenote, I really like analoq's take on this one which was on the S2 projekt. That one IS synth-goodness. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinTurboTerrorist Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 This has been one of my favorite WIPs for a long time, so much so that it's on my iPod now. Glad to hear it brought back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC Ricers Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I second TwinTurbo's comments. This is so hot. Better make it past the judges. We need more Arabian Electro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I second this wholeheartedly. This has been my absolute favorite wip ever since the very beginning. SUBMIT THIS! BTW, where did you get the percussion samples starting 1:24. Those are great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayza Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 You'd have to ask Gecko about that.. I did the lead synths and a few background synths. It's mostly his work actually. And I wasn't really planning on submitting this, just found it again and wondering what y'all were thinking of it. Thanks for the comments tho!

Spotnick Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 (OT) Oh, this caught me unprepared. GeckoYamori, I read that name in the song and then realized, HEY, I've seen you before! First on the SuperPlay-forums and then also on the Studio-forums. Hiii!!! ;P And about the mix, haven't got much to say; it's not kickass awesome, according to my taste, but in a technical point-of-view it's nothing to complain about at all.

sonic_fan69 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 This is the first time I have heard this remix, it's great just like the SonikElektronik remix. Awesome work!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Jazz Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Ive actually had this for a long time, for some reason... I was wondering why I couldn't find it on the site... I like it, but as quite a few others have else said, it could use a little more variation. Perhaps you could add one of those cool flute things that snake charmers use (known as pungi). But, yeah, if I was a judge, i'd pass this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTiger Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 HECK YES. This is amazing work from two of my favorite mixers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtM0201 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I kinda almost gave up on this song being finished, glad you 2 still worked on it, nice (but I still like the older lead better...) they would give it a yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
