Jivemaster Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Sonic 3D Blast (SAT) 'Power Puppet' Jivemaster's interpretation of Sonic 3D's Panic Puppet Zone remixed is a darkish type mood. Fairly techno, a bit minimal, making use of a thumping reverberated bass drum, a thickish bass and a plethora of synths. I must say the song is quite different from the original, which is how I intended it, keeping it mainly bass orientated while using other synths to add variation. My real gripe with this was my choice to leave the clap right above the kick, which consequently causes quite a bit of distortion at times. Panning slightly to the left or right would have been a good idea, or I could have laid off the compression a bit. I was pretty happy with it overall, but looking at it now, I could have done much more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njsykora Posted May 8, 2004 Share Posted May 8, 2004 From the first remix of his I heard Jivemaster immediately became my favorite remixer. While this isn't my favorite of his it comes pretty close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Canabrava Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 By taking off the small melodic part, Jivemaster removed half of the impact the original had IMO. Good thing he made enough of the other half to make up for it. Not the mix I am waiting for, but it IS excellent stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meccaneer Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Eh? Is this supposed to be hardcore? The tempo and BD say, 'yes.' Those filtered arps say, 'no.' That makes my brain say, 'no.' The lo-fi strings are a nice touch. Overall the song is way too repetitive. It's kinda like one short song played twice. And there's just not much going on. I mean, I'd still dance to it after a few drinks, but only after a few drinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkmelee Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Maybe i'm too purist, but...I can't seem to get the feel of this...I love the originals, and i think even slightly changing that bass wasn't a good call, as that WAS the theme, save for the super-synthy pulse of the game's theme...Not my type of ReMix...A good job, but not my type of ReMix...

Bummer Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Well I can mildly say that this one caught my attention from the beginning, it began with a blast with high-paced synths and beats, lots of them. This is one of those typhical remixes that you can't sit still and listen to, since there's always your left foot or head that starts bopping or at least moving along the rhytm. Compared to the beginning, it was rather calm after about one minute or so, then took an another gasp of breath and started out once again, only to stale into something more slow. It was mainly the same samples being used, there wasn't a moment when suddenly a new element jumped out of the shadows to surprise you with a new melody or beat. The best part of this remix was the beginning, that I can say. once again Jivemaster controls chaos. MOAR LIEK CHAOS EMERALDS M I RITE?

OceansAndrew Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 pretty good stuff, great way to start my morning; thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 This makes me think of some part of a movie where people are in a race to do something really important and OMG they're being pursued. Dark, technoish feel, anxiety strings, etc. Overall it's a pretty good mix, and I think it creates a nice atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalsnakejuice Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Excellent stuff going on in this mix, it really gives you a adrenalin rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmiduke Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 There definately seems to be pieces missing from this. You can almost hear the imprints of where things had once been, or at least should have been. It's okay for what it is: very standard, dark techno. But I really think it's one of the obvious early ones. It's a good base, but I would have wanted more built upon it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I don't like this very much - it's like heavy beat, then slow section, then start up the beat again. The formula just doesn't really lend itself to much substance to keep me interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dANGER boy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Too frantic for me. I'm not into crazy, 200 BPM arrangements. Some great low bass if your speakers or headphones can handle them. Definitely good for a certain crowd but not my cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Certainly fills the role of a tense "gotta go now!" theme. While I hear places where things could be taken to the next level, for what is here, it sounds like it would be perfect for an old PC race game, especially with the bass, so it has something I can relate to at least.
