Crulex Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Ah, man, so smooth! With a jazzy piano piece like this, it's going to be hard to keep people from sliding all over the floor. I'm liking the uses of the vibraphone, which was amazing and perfect for this arrangement, as well the guitar and bass. Slick as hell, Nostalvania, I love this. Quote
Nase Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 ah yeah, this was a good one. i suggested some drums in the wip thread, but i think this is perfect as is right now. i'd describe the sound as intimate, and the bass gives it some distinct rhythm. it doesn't need drums, and if it had some they'd have to be really interesting, something more than swingy hihats.

A-RoN Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I love the classic feel to this. Piano and bass swing are spot on. Vince Guaraldi will be proud. Quote
BONKERS Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 It was only a matter of time until someone did something like this!:nicework: We all knew it was possible! It was only up to someone to actually do it! I'd love to do a Brass swing version of the entire soundtrack. But man, sequencing and getting authentic sounding performance for that would be impossible ha Dl'd Quote
Chernabogue Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Ah, so Mr. Vania isn't doing piano-solo remixes only? The acoustic bass is a really nice addition here, it adds something classy to the track, which is fitting for a jazz remix. The guitar and melodic percussion (dulcimer/xylophone?) coming up later are also fine choices of instrumentation. Everything sounds good together -- an interesting take on yet another Castlevania classic! (May I suggest adding some soft drums next time? ) Nostalvania 1 Quote
Black_Doom Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Wow, what a unique cover! I didn't expect this theme to be covered in this way, but I simply can't get enough of it. It's super playful. And I'm also big fan of vibraphone, so this mix definitely satisfies my taste. And dat bass is pretty catchy as well. Very creative and groovy mix, love it. Nostalvania 1 Quote
timaeus222 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Maybe the vibraphone could have used a touch of treble reflections to help it mesh in a little better into the soundscape. Really classy chord progressions and performance. 1:35 - 1:44 in the piano was a highlight. Nostalvania 1 Quote

So your suggestion has already been implemented Merci for the review! Chernabogue 1 Quote
