OCR00268 - Super Mario Bros. 2 "Insomnic"

[MarioRPG]

I wouldn't say it's 'great'. It's definatley enjoyable to say the least.

Very great remix. If I had to pick only one remix to have, it'd be this one. I really like how it starts in with a nice jingle to a techno-ish theme, and then brings in some low notes to keep me listening. 6/5. Yeah, I'm bold...

it should loop at least 1x so i don't have to loop it myself

This mix brings me way back to when GTA3 had only just been released for the PC, and I would drive around Liberty City with a select few songs playing on the .mp3 radio station. 'Insomnic' was THE song to bash around a virtual city with.

That was a long time ago, and I still think it holds up. It definately doesn't have the technical or even the creative prowess of post-standardised OCR, but it has a hell of a lot more fun than many mixes. And come on, that underground section is cool, inspired stuff. A long time and a lot of music has passed over me, eroding my memory, yet I still remember it very well. It's a personal (perhaps even a guilty) favourite from classic Overclocked.

technically a bit dated, but there's a lot of personalization brought to this one via effects and processing, and the arrangement is pretty nice with the second theme. The transition back to "above ground" was effective and cool.

A fun melody creatively applied. Pretty nice stuff.

[Crulex]

Older and dated and it shows, but honestly, still fun to listen to in it's simplicity and wasn't grating on my ears, so good enough for me. Good energy carries this for me, so it's fine for me, but just that.

Agreed. Not a whole lot added to the source, but the remix itself still has me bippin' and boppin' in 2024!
