orkybash Posted October 24, 2002 Author Share Posted October 24, 2002 Hmmm... sounds kinda messy in most places. Plus, there's really no element to tie the song together through all the random styles it switches between... except for maybe those bittry screams. Maybe I'd appreciate what the mixer was going for if I had played the game, but as it is, I don't. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protricity Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Pros: Good use of bad samples Good arranging ability, aside from the bad samples Song got me interested in the game, BIG PLUS there Cons: Cant think of anything transitions werent that hot, but they were ok Excelent!

Saunders Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 ... Well I'm honestly not liking the way this starts. Although now it doesn't so bad, in fact it's gotten downright upbeat (that almost seems oxymoronic). Hmm, I like the way this is changing up it's sound a lot, although I'm most partial to the upbeat stuff like I'm hearing right now 3:40. I gotta say, I really like this mix. Aside from the intro which is kinda ugly, but I think it was intended to be that way. Like Prot said, the samples were kind of ugly, but they were used well enough that the mix didn't sound bad. I think that if you know what you're doing, you can make any sample in a mix work well. Vote: Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcos Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Wow, this changes a lot! Well the intro wasn't too bad, although there was a synth that came in at 0.19 that had a bit too much release. The changes took me a little by surprise at times, and at 2.09 when the piano came in, that transition could have been a lot smoother! However, there is good rhythm throughout, there is a very definite structure to it, it has been arranged nicely, and it is distinctive and original. YES.

Disco Dan Posted October 27, 2002 Share Posted October 27, 2002 This is such a nice refreshing change from that mono track. God, I really hope every one of you judges goes back and changes your vote to NO simply so that mono track doesn't have to be listened to by other people. What is this? One remix? Two? Three? I don't know. Anyway, the quality is nice. I see no coherrency between these tracks. And unfortunately, I've never heard of Splatterhouse so I have no idea whether this is based on anything. Anyway, the thing ain't bad. It won't stay on MY hard drive after these listens, but ... wait Ok, why won't this stay on my HD? Because it sounds too much like it's from a videogame. Too much of it just sounds exactly like it would on any given console. No, I figured out what it is that bugs me. I found the gym file (on zophar) and it's pretty much the same. Though the original is boring, the remix isn't much less boring. It just fails to grab any attention. That's my 2¢ for what it's worth.

m68030 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 I'm pretty torn on this one. I agree with DiscoDan that it's... just boring. The instruments use are kinda weird.. i dunno that it's a bad thing, but i just feel uncomfortable listening to this. I checked out the original GYM after DD brought it up, and this is an interesting direct translation of the music into other instruments, but I just don't feel that it's up to that OCR level. The piano break was a very nice change, but it's just all over the place.. If this were abotu 4 times longer with some serious development between sections then I'd probably really like it, but right now it just feels like a one night stand with the music from the game. I kinda feel bad saying NO to this, because it sounds like alot of work went into it, but I just don't think it's up to par with what I expect from OCR.

Antonio Pizza Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Guess it's up to me, huh? alright, fine. No. Daniel and CotMM are right in that it's way similar to the original. With the exception of the piano part midway, I dare say it was too close to a midi rip. It sounds ehhh, but like CotMM said, it's not OCR material. Sorry pal. Better luck next time.

DarkCecil13 Posted November 3, 2002 Share Posted November 3, 2002 I realize this thread is locked, and I got to it slowly, but as I stated before, I like this mix. Simply put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
