duskvstweak Posted June 2 Posted June 2 New all-timer alert! This is so hypnotic, I can't stop listening to it. Tracks like this make me wish I wasn't such a chicken and could play Silent Hill games. TheManPF 1 Quote
duskvstweak Posted June 3 Posted June 3 Okay, I'm back for one more comment! I've been listening to this track a bunch for the past day and there's just so much to love. I think what's really clicking with me is the Led Zeppelin off it all, especially something like The Rain Song. Forgive my lack of musical theory terms but the whole "soft-to-loud" journey this mix goes on just gives it so many layers. "Like The Rain Song" or "Stairway to Heaven" or "In the Light", this track tells a story just by changing up the volume in meaningful ways. And the use of "classical" instruments with the flute and strings, meshed with some ripping guitar work and drums that definitely get to shine throughout, it just gives this whole mix a saga-vibe that, again, I keep comparing to Zeppelin. Like, if Jimmy Page did a version of "In the Pines". It's creepy, like something out of those Norwegian-crime novels but it also rocks so hard, I ended up blaring my car speakers during those solos. Okay, I'm done gushing. Thanks so much for this mix! *gah, I love video game remixes so much* TheManPF 1 Quote
TheManPF Posted June 4 Posted June 4 @duskvstweak Thank you so much for your comments! I can't say I was thinking of Zep specifically when arranging this but I can definitely see the connection, whenever I arrange or compose (especially something of this length), I like having a lot of sonic hills and valleys precisely so you can feel that sense of journey, I'm really happy that this track resonated so much with someone so I greatly appreciate your comments!

rfgiusti Posted June 4 Posted June 4 I think there is a problem in the MP3 file. There seems to be a skip around 0:52, and when comparing to the YouTube version, the MP3 seems to be missing 3 or 4 seconds. The download file size and MD5 hash don't match the information in the download page. Quote
Eino Keskitalo Posted June 17 Posted June 17 Great song! I really enjoyed and appreciated the duet. I'm not familiar with the original. I did think the song was overcompressed at least to my tastes/ears (the open hihat felt like it "pumped" the mix throughout). But otherwise it was just a solid song and it was fun to hear a really successful vocal duet on OCReMix! TheManPF 1 Quote
