Eden Posted September 15, 2002 Posted September 15, 2002 While I really like the remix, I wonder why everyone keeps referring to Rammstein ~ it doesn't really give me the Rammstein feeling... but maybe I'm too much into their music to accept a lighter piece as this song as something similar. The remix is really good, though! Quote
Lat Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 Woah, Ausgezeichnet! A great techno rock remix, albeit a little too soft and techno to be considered "Rammstein". I love the heavy guitars, and I really love the balance Mazedude created between the background guitars and the lead techno synth. The end half of this song is a bit disappointing, though. Nothing to terrible, and definently nothing that will reduce the quality of this track, it's just a little repetitive. A well done ReMix. Check it out! Quote
Athyx Melodious Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 I haven't listened to this remix yet, and haven't read any other comments about it either in order to be as open minded as possible. I'm a big fan of the game, though I haven't played it in like 8 years. It's one of those games thats always gonna be stapled in my mind. Gotta love dragonfeet, lol. begining..... Whoa.....the intro alone has me feeling very violent. WOW. My head is bobbing back and forth like I have some sort of vertibtrae problem or something. The overall feel thusfar is captivating. I have no choice but to tap my foot and play drums on my peice of shit archaic laptop and computer desk. I love how all of the melody lines sound, and the rythem stuff really enhances the feel. I love how alot of the tones are distorted, they give it that ass beating feel that I'm sure the orriginal developers really wanted on the game, rather than the lackluster sound quality of the amazing midi. I love the phasing sound of the rythem guitars too. You didn't go overboard with it like I hear all to often. To many people out there think that they need that sort of effect as loud and obnoxious as they can get it. You clearly understand the tonal color changing abbilities that reside in this effect. I love the decrepid keyboard line at 2:50. The sound, the melody, and how it enhances the I'm gonna beat your ass with a lead pipe mood. I think it was brilliant. I find it all to common to hear music from that same particular genre to be repetitive. You kept me guessing. Everytime I thought I certain part should end, it ended, And when things ended, I was always on my toes because you found another great thing to do with this composition. I give it a perfect 5 stars.

The Snee Posted March 8, 2003 Posted March 8, 2003 This is quite possibly the best remix i've heard on here to date, i registered just to review it. If you havn't heard it, then you havn't heard it, and there is nothing i can do about that, except this: listen to this. Quote
C-Beck Posted April 11, 2003 Posted April 11, 2003 Mazedude I personally think this is your best song ever, and you did an awesome job giving it that rammstein edge, keep up the great remixes man. Quote
Eccles Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 I dislike intensley the synth crackles that dart about from ear to ear at the beginning. The rest of it's pretty good, though (except for the parts near the end that seem to be hugely disjointed) Its very good...most definitley above average (though I dont seem to be enjoying it as much as everyone else ) Either way I highly recommend it to everyone...even if you havent played the game, its still a pretty awesome track.

z38stinger Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 Wow.... I DLed this song after seeing it in the 'first remix you heard" thread as someone's choice. DIZZAMN! This is a cool-ass remix. I like the electronic synth-age, among other things... Quote
Inimitable Posted October 12, 2003 Posted October 12, 2003 As you can tell by my post count, I very, very rarely log in and post. However, this is well worth it. I spit upon whoever dislikes this mix. I feel guilty that I've had this remix for so long and said nothing about it here, as this is easily my favorite remix to date. At 1:57, I love the sudden drop (forgive my lack of remixing terms). The bit from 2:19 to 2:32 is wonderful, and the ending is perfectly executed. The Rammstein edge is near flawless, which makes me love it even more, and it's the perfect music to destroy your eardrums with. Excellent, Mazedude, this mix was damn near flawless (because nothing's perfect), and was (if you will) quite inimitable. Quote
uglee musashi Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 well I been listening to this mix every day for near a year now and it STILL kicks ass. now for those of you looking for the game itself , I cant help you . but there is a GBA version on the way {RCR EX} http://www.gamespot.com/gba/action/rivercityransom/news_6072386.html and thats about all I have to say about that Quote
PotatoeCS Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 THIS IS THE S*** ! ! ! it's in one of my personal FavoRITES! GJ MAN!!!!!! Quote
Blaster1980 Posted January 28, 2004 Posted January 28, 2004 This was the first remix that just recently I trying to play - The result? I suck, but the effort is what counts(You won't know unless you try) Anyway I'll keep trying, for this remix kicks major ass! Quote
jessthemullet Posted February 9, 2004 Posted February 9, 2004 This was the first OverClocked song I heard. I was instantly hooked on OC, and I have Mazedude to thank for it. Good stuff. A classic in my mind. Quote
Oddity Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 There seems to be volume problems with this. The first half is quieter. Then it really picks up and makes me really like it. Maybe it has to do with the ranges of the song not always being full, but what do I know about ranges? Quote
DJ Riott Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 This mix rockxx!@! AT :46, It feels like the guitar/synth wants to talk, but it cant seem to get it out! Great Rock-Techno feel that will stay on my playlist. Very inspirational to me, as I am currently working my own RCR remix. great work. dude. maze. mazedude. Quote
Phil1450 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Man, I love short little sytnh solos. Just the whole song is really amazing. I'm usually not one for 'hard rock' or what have you, but this song blows my mind! Quote
jordex Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 this song is sweet its got a taste of prot in it and theres some trance sounds in there its all great Quote
GSGold Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 "Hold it! Rocko says punks can't pass!" This is my favorite remix ever. I'm too young to remember the NES days, so with the power of emulation I've been able to play this masterpeice of a game. The boss music is my favorite, second only to the River City High music when you're near/in the building. 5,000/10 Quote
Bolgard Posted April 17, 2005 Posted April 17, 2005 My God, words fail me. I'm one of the few guys lucky enough to have stumbled across RCR in my childhood, and that was my absolute favorite beat 'em up game ever. Double Dragon had nothin' on RCR. And this remix? Well, honestly, amazingly enough, I can't find a single flaw in it. It lacks nothing, not even some small, tiny aspect that would normally make me say "great remix, but if only..." This is an epic work of art. Quote
jordex Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 Another great one from Mazedude! It just keeps going only getting more intense! Definatly hyper and loud but in a good way, however Mazedude doesn't do his all-famous, tempo change technique in this one, well that's not a bad thing. Anyways, nice job on this one Mazedude! Quote
Jack the Ripper Posted June 15, 2005 Posted June 15, 2005 In all honesty, there's about only one sound that's obviously Rammstein-evident. KMFDM comparisons really don't seem to ring true either. It's a very nice mix, but it's certainly been a bit mislabeled. This definitely screams OC Remix by Mazedude. Quote
Taffin Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 This receives my rating of "TB," which either stands for "Total Badass" or "Tuberculosis," I'm not sure. It's definitely good, though. Quote
42 Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I'm only a little familiar with Rammstein through what I've heard in German class, but still this is excellent, awesome, and everything else. Great job. Quote
Marmiduke Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 I haven't really heard anything by Rammstein save for 'Du Hast', which I gotta say sounded absolutely nothing like this mix. Certainly, Rammstein's reputation isn't for Mazedude-ish synth style rocking. Which is a shame, because the world can never get enough. A very well produced hardcore track here. Has that new Mazedude smell to it, which all good Mazedude mixes (and all those mythical bad ones) possess. And I say 'new', but in truth, I was pretty surprised by how old this actually is. It's not like the samples are amazing; I think it has more to do with the fact that Mazedude has stayed consistant throughout his OCR career and never got stuck on doing the one genre/sound. Therefore, I had trouble pinpointing when this mix was actually concieved, which is nice because it means longevity. *sigh* And since I've literally been typing all day, I think that's about all I have to say on the matter. Great mix, great game, great mixer. I'm out. Quote
