Ginnsu Posted July 8, 2002 Posted July 8, 2002 Mega Man X3 'Memory' Kick ass! This one is something to dance to, and while the original Mega Man tune is buried very deep within this mix, it is still noticeable. I thought the feeling was good at the beginning of this mix, but wait till about 0:57 and you get ear engulfing sweetness. Man I need some larger speakers. Great work DJ Terra, more please. Quote
skawttieboy Posted July 8, 2002 Posted July 8, 2002 While I never really played Mega Man X3 that much, I still can tell this is a total Mega Man song, and love it. Great dance beat going on in here, makes you wanna dance. This one I could be listening to for a while! Quote
Beatdrop Posted July 10, 2002 Posted July 10, 2002 While it's a great first submission, I have to subtract points for using the default FL drums (I honestly can't stand them) and also for the fact that the chords that are in the very beginning play throughout the entire thing. I mean, I know it's sort of supposed to be repetitive since it's trance, but I can't think of many trance songs that are quite this repetitive... (except for maybe Sandstorm... *cough cough*) Anyway, all in all, I give it 3/5. Definitely room for improvement, but still a good start. By the way, I love how the chorus kicks in at the main section and really widens the sonic predominance of the main lead. EDIT: My apologies. For some stupid reason, my brain told me this was your first submission, even when I knew it wasn't since I checked out your other one when I first heard THIS song. So anyway, my brain farted, and I'm sorry. Quote
Collaborator Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Good stuff, keep it coming, megaman forever! -Collab Quote
Chronotrigger Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 This song is amazing, i love the synth. p.s:i think this is either the snow stage or the first stage Quote
Dem Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 This song is amazing, i love the synth.p.s:i think this is either the snow stage or the first stage Gravity Beetle. LONG LIVE DEM! Quote
BotchedLobotomy Posted July 23, 2002 Posted July 23, 2002 omg I'm still playing this song and not getting tired of it *loses interest quickly most of the time* Quote
Shhteve Posted November 24, 2002 Posted November 24, 2002 Yeah.. This song definitely needs to variate a bit sooner, that repetitiveness lasts for almost an entire minute and drives me to almost stop the song. Wooh. It gets REALLY good later on though. Gravity Beetle's theme was my favorite theme from X3. Another thing though, after you listen to it a few times you don't really notice the lack of the progression in the beginning and you won't really seem to care. DJ Terra, you rule. Great work! Why isn't there more people making tracks like this!? Quote
Dafter Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 I readed yesterday a post from DJ Terra himself that he would put up another Mega Man X4 remix, other then Stageselect. Hope so cause this guy rules!!! The theme of Gravity Beetle is great indeed and this remix is even better!!! Hope that the new X4 remix will show up soon on Overclocked. Peace to all the Mega Man lovers out there!!!(This is my second post ever, I´m new here LOL) Quote
Kaleb.G Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 Oh why didn't you include the full melody for the lead instrument? I don't know, it seems like a good remix, but it doesn't capture the magic of the Gravity Beetle song for me. I would like you to try to include the full melody for all instruments in future remixes, please! Quote
MetaZero Posted January 16, 2003 Posted January 16, 2003 Hehe, Thank you folks Well,.. this remix is very old, and one of my first songs i ever made. I think i'm gonna make a new version of this sometime, later Quote
Mongoosedog Posted March 7, 2003 Posted March 7, 2003 Repetitiveness ain't bad if whats being repeated sounds so good! Quote
ice_man_exe Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 Makes me see various scenes from Zero's life when I hear it...don't know why. Quote
Sunshine Posted July 23, 2003 Posted July 23, 2003 I don't hear something like this everyday (but i want to do that ). Quote
Corporal Eschebone Posted September 9, 2003 Posted September 9, 2003 Much like the MMX4 Stage Select mix, this song has great overall sound quality, but lacks variety. Some new chords somewhere between the original chords would have done this mix some good. The track is way too repetitive. I still like it, though. Quote
CTPhoenix Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 I'm going to have to agree with djpretzel with about everything. A B-part is screaming for recognition. The chord are monotonous, but the song is good. The kick is great. Blunt ending. Could have done without the glissandos up and down around 1:29, but I was overall happy about the song. I liked it. Quote
Slime Master Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 Personally I prefer the original tune to this song myself. For a song that's about four minutes long you'd think there would be a little more variety in it. But anyways this song has some good points about it it doesn't get tiresome for me anyways. Quote
Brim Posted August 4, 2004 Posted August 4, 2004 This song is great in many aspects, the mood is sort of heroic/memorial and the song itself is great (the quality is tiny bit bad). This is also repetitive, but I don't care. Quote
Lord_Atmo Posted August 5, 2004 Posted August 5, 2004 i'm a huge fan of the gravity beetle BGM. this song made the song even better! it's an awesome remix and i love it! Quote
SixthFlyingMan Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 There is one main thing I hated about this remix. I had to listen REEEEAL hard to hear the Gravity Beetle theme. The bass line/static line was WAY too heavy. It almost ENTIRELY drowned out the melody. Just enough to stop me from downloading it. So turn up the melody line volume and reupload, and I'll download it. 'Cuz the rest of it sounded |<3\/\/1. In a very very 1337 |-|4X0|2z way. Quote
Vesian Posted September 19, 2004 Posted September 19, 2004 While I have nothing but respect for the individuals who undertake remixing songs, especially from the X series, I just wasn't feeling this one. Some of the very basic elements of the song have been augmented, making it very frusterating, to say the least, for me to try to get that "nosalgia" from the original. To put it simpler, the song turns one way, where it's actually supposed to travel a different direction in terms of music. Quote
killthrush Posted December 5, 2004 Posted December 5, 2004 Having never heard the original track (ok, so I'm an old man, I guess - never played MM X3) I was able to listen to this track in a relatively unbiased manner. No real complaints, but no real praise either, I'm afraid. It's in my rotation, but overall, it just doesn't grab me like some of the other tracks I dig. The mix was the best part about this one, good balance. 7/10 overall. Quote
krale Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Aye aye aye.... There's some weird non-resolving chordal structure at :58 (7'th note in theme)... Sounds like the note was 'bent' up to the right one, but even hitting it throws the chord off... (then again, the chord doesnt feel right. If Im right, the SPC has chord changes 8 times in the refrain through major, minor, diminished, and dim m7 --no particular order) Quote
