m68030 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Streets of Rage 2 'Badass Posse' This is pretty badass. Great percussion and piano and guitar and just everything. it's the kind of arrangement just you want to smile and listen to. It's just fun.

mDuo13 Posted November 28, 2002 Share Posted November 28, 2002 Pretty basic percussion, a good, tough acoustic guitar (patch, I believe), some good piano, and good composition skills - I would expect nothing less out of McVaffe. It has some cool solo's and mixups, and is a pretty good mix, but it's not as masterful as some of McVaffe's other mixes (such as Super Mario 64 'Liquid Mario', Sonic 3 'IceCapped', and Castlevania 4 'CastleTrance'). It fits the title well, though. EDIT>>> fixed URL tags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hjalfi Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Some of the background of this rather cool track is reminiscent of Protection 1 by the disturbingly weird group Coil... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Nice, McVaffe! Pleasant the part that touches to the 01:57, when the strokes move. The piano sounds pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordex Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 w-double-O-T More jazzy from McVaffy I'm feeling the vibe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pip is uh..... Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Compared to Gecko's fizzy version this one sorta falls flat. It is not without its charm though! The ranges of sound in this mix are a bit tamer than the outrageous collection of sounds used in Gecko's mix but it all works nicely. I dig the guitar and piano. All in all this is solid MCV work. Hes just on a different level than the rest of us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Badass Posse is right! This is perfect music to listen to while wandering the tough streets, maybe with a burst of impromptu dancing, and snapping your fingers in time. The synths and acoustic guitars are nicely balanced on their respective left and right turfs, and when the acoustic makes a quick dash into enemy territory, the effect is startling and pretty cool. The drums are very nice, and the rhythms don't change a lot, but the fills are all very interesting. The best part is near the end though, with both the panning guitar and drum breakdown, and then comped piano solo. Awesome work, and highly recommended.

Nutritious Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Nice mix that's stood the test of time. Kind of a chilled out version (at least I think so) of Under Logic. Very cool and creative use of acoustic guitar. Piano, of course, is classic McVaffe. So, who's the other mixer DJP refers to in the writeup?

jpaulsnow Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Good tune, just found myself waiting for the Utah Saints to pipe in and sing, "I can move move move any mountain..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Constromlie Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I made a quick mash-up of this with Drop It Like It's Hot by Snoop Dogg. This is actually the first ReMix I used for a mash-up, so great job McVaffe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmiduke Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Very warm, very pleasant mix that puts a few ideas of the table but most importantly, performs a really solid tune well. The panning work was fine with me up until a point. Maybe because I listen exclusively with headphones, but there was something about the panning breakdown that made me question whether it was necessary, or even if it was done tightly enough. It's a strange effect to insert in a bridge between some really lovely piano music and balanced guitar work. For me, it wasn't utilised as well as McVaffe's own Tempest Mix. Still, the samples have held up remarkably well in this, and McVaffe tunes are always irresistable to listen to whenever the opportunity arises. Awesome, upbeat McVaffe piano conquers all. A breezy one, but a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holy Land Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Man, this would be totally golden material for a late 80's hip hop song. This actually reminds me a little of Paul's Boutique and its marvelous funky beats. Sexy as hell stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Nice, man, this is very smooth and cool. Catchy and upbeat as hell, as well. The piano and acoustic guitar rolling around with the glitchy effects that reminds me of some SF3rd Strike stuff is a great combination. I love it.

Black_Doom Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Pretty fun stuff! Not quite feeling the piano here at some points, but other than that - a solid listen, groovy enough to get my head bopping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
