tweex Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I don't care what the judges say. That is the best sequenced guitar that I have EVER heard. The dynamics, the bends, slides, the harmonics, etc. are spot on. Yes, it does sound a little "tin-canny" at times, but it's wonderful!! Beautiful mix!

CHz Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I still just think it's fucking awesome that another Japanese doujin guy submitted to OCR. Maybe this will encourage others to follow ????? I love the soundscape in this remix. Groovy. A little sparser than I'd like at times, but the acoustic break (fake or not) completely makes up for any shortcomings. Make sure to check out more of his tunes at http://ryolion.net/. He has a particularly shredding version of the classic Green Greens theme too. =O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacitus Krekt Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Loving the percussion, and the vibe that the guitar brings. This one's a keeper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkinzez Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Guess I've heard the tune too much to truly enjoy this, despite the solid composition. The stand-outs for me were when the song deviated. Sorry, dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Rider Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 It's a cool remix. In case you read this it's cool...you should submit some more of your stuff! Or in Japanese... 読んだらよくできましたね！他の歌を出した方がいいですよ。 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Guitar sequencing is absolutely brilliant. I've never heard a fake guitar that sounded this great. Hell, it's hard to make a real guitar sound this good. Arrangement is brilliant, production is excellent. Definitely a keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Indeed...I wouldn't have known that the guitar wasn't real unless someone mentioned it. Awesome work with this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaphist Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Guess I've heard the tune too much to truly enjoy this, despite the solid composition. The stand-outs for me were when the song deviated. I feel the same way. I appreciate what was done here, though. All in all it had a very different sound and feel than most remixes of the theme, which is good.

avaris Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Def wish I hadn't listened to the source tune so much bc this is sweet. As everyone else has said the sequencing on the guitar...damn. He doesn't use a whole lotta sounds but the mix feels very realistic and has a great feel to it. Simple yet amazing at the same time. Here to hoping more of the Doujin community subs mixes here and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotaki Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Crap! Just remembered what this remix reminded me of!! That Dark Cloud II introduction movie theme that starts when you start the game up. It's got the same feel in my opinion. Awesome percussion. =) Digging it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I love the low voice of the guitar and whatever the bass instrument in the background is. This melody is unforgettable-probably because it's remixed to death- but this remixer can't help that this song is popular. I like the change of pace at around 2:00. It showcases the low strings again, which is great. The small percusive elements create a nice flow for this song: strings, bongo?, and some other high strung drum. I guess there isn't too terribly much going on at one time in this mix, but it creates the illusion that there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlastikBag Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 This is awesome. The percussion is brilliant and that MIDI guitar is amazing. I still can't believe it's a MIDI guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ness757 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 This is by far the best remix of the CT theme I've ever heard. Somehow, you've managed to make a song that's been remixed a million times unique. 11/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derako Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I thought that this was very good rendition of the theme. What can I say I'm a sucker for a sitar -Derek- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I do love it, but I really an't say it's my favorite mix out there. Still a very enjoyable listen, great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhsu Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Love it. Of course, I'm kind of obligated to say that about any Japanese arrangement, but this is one of the particularly good ones. Sweet chord changes, tight guitar sequencing, and of course sitar FTW. Welcome to OCR, Ryo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciel Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Sitar = automatic win Agreed! Plus, making it sound something like a town theme from Suikoden I is always favorable in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperion5182 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I dont have the time at the moment to describe how this mix sounds. So consider this a placeholder. I can say this much. This mix=win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Love_OC_ReMixes Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Can somebody link me to all of those Japanse Doujin arranges? I would love to hear more (japanese) game mixes which arent on OCR.

apoc Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Great mix! Yes, this track was a little too popular, but thankfully I haven't heard it in quite some time (so I can appreciate this mix more). It's definitely got something that's different from what I'm used to hearing on OCR, and I really like it! 凄かった！僕はこれが大好きだよ。 I'd definitely love to see more of the Japanese community welcomed here (and other nationalities, for that matter). I'm not sure what impact this would have on the site design, but it might be a good idea to have some of the content translated by some trusted (and fluent) volunteers.

Hell, it's hard to make a real guitar sound this good.Arrangement is brilliant, production is excellent. Definitely a keeper. I totally agree! I totally thought that it was real guitar, but just found myself thinking "man, I wish my attacks sounded that good..." lol. You did a really great job on arrangement, instrumentation and production... simply astounding! While there were some people who weren't into the deviations, I really dug them. It was nice to hear someone have a new take on such a familiar theme, especially with the harmony because while the melody was (mostly) the same, it had a totally different colour, and I thought that was awesome! Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady zelda Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 The mix in general has such an awesome laid back and free spirited feel and it works so well with the original melody too. Great work! Keep these coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
