orkybash Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 Blaster Master 'Into the Earth' While I don't care for the plucked string sound (is that a default FruityLoops sound? I certainly hope not!), the rest of this mix sounds very nice. It's a far cry from Nine's other rave submissions, airing towards more atmosphere rather than danceability. It's pulled off very well, methinks, with just the right amount of reverb to make it atmospheric but not too indistinct (as can happen if there's too much of it.) I think the title fits very well, also - I can definitely see myself descending into some huge cavern or something. At any rate, I think I'm just gonna leave it at that, and say that I really recommend this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solarus Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 This sounds like New-age to me...a bit. As Blaster Master is my favorite game, it's impossible for me to not love it...I just miss some remixes of the best track in the game; Stage 1!

Nines Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 Yeah, that is the Plucked! synth you hear for the harpy bits (not the default settings though). I was originally just using that as a placeholder until I got ahold of a good sample or something to replace it, but that sound blended just right with the rest of the music, I thought, so I kept it.

esden9 Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 Thats right nines, if it sounds good use it! I dont know many people that look at a violinist or whatnot and say "Hey! You are using a standard violin! Shame on you!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Eschebone Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 I kinda like this. Sounds just like the title says it is. You've put some nice, ambient instruments in here. They have that sort of "fantasy" feeling to them. Cool, but you could've built on it a bit faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeOmega Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I liked it the first time I heard it. At first I thought, "well Nines has a great melody to start with", then I thought, "at least Nines didn't mess it up", and by the end I thought, "Nines did a really great job with this one".

OceansAndrew Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Relativly dense, this could pass for new age if it wasnt for some of the lo-fi synths in some sections. It certainly fits the title, as you can easily imagine a slow descent into the earth. Not really my style, but I can't deny that the mix is good. The bass and drums are really nice and have a very hypnotic effect to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowname Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I like to listen to this remix at 2x speed while envisioning Snake sneeking around MGS style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm a fan of this. It's really relaxing. Just what I needed after a long work day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swansdown Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Travelling the land. So relaxing. Contemplative, even. Inspiring. The hum sound (eg. at 2:00) feels really good. Love the play that starts at 3:12 and finishes up the track. Just lovely. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
