ReMix:EarthBound "Battling Organs" 2:51

Wow.

That's it.

my title says it all

Very creative and well executed, but not my style.

It's a shame I've never played Earthbound at all, but enough about my problems.

This is classic Mazedude at his craziest and zaniest. Download this, now.

Simply awesome!

Classic Mazedude Style!

Kind of reminds me of Hydrocity from Sonic 3 with all the gr8 syncopation.

So, pretty random, but this was played at a wedding reception I was at yesterday, right after the Electric Slide played. Everyone pretty much cleared the dancefloor in confusion as this progressed through the first 15 seconds, but I was totally jacked and ran out there and danced the shit out of this awesome ReMix.

I can't believe that I'm actually listening it for the fifth time!

I can't believe how insane it is!!

I can't believe that I'm actually enjoying it!!!

But I am.

HELP!!!!

i've kinda been expecting a track like this. it's a well made, but im not a huge fan. i've got more respect for what Mazedude wass trying to do than what he did...mostly because i can't get into the mix at all. there are some sweet parts, contrasts, percussion and use of the different elements, but overall it's just not enjoyable to listen to. i find the best parts are what i can piece together from the original, and not what the artist has rearranged or re-interpreted. to me, that's the sign of an ineffective mix.

there are some remixes with brillaint additions that build on the original tracks here. in this particular mix i think the percussion and bass were well put together elements in themself, but overall i would have preferred a harmony in the tradition of the source track.

the brilliance of the original is that it took separately strange elements and harmonized them together into something really palpable and pimp. As wierd as the original was, it was insurmountably tight to listen to because it melded together so well. There are alot of competing elements here and alot of zany sounds.

given, there are some tight parts in this mix. the more i listen to it the more i can tolerate it and even get into it, but truly i think this remix is flashier than it is good. i guess it's everyones goal to make an estranging earthbound remix chuck full of atonal theory and all sorts of madness, but i think there's more to the music than that in earthbound. it's one of the most amazing original game soundtracks i've ever heard--and unique both in concept, sound and feel. but the key was that it immediately takes you in, and you get it in one listen. this takes more effort to enjoy than a remix ought to. it's taxing.

given... this is almost inevitable with earthbound. eb's probably one of the toughest games to try and remix. i applaud and respect mazedude's effort, but i think there's another method for remixing this track waiting with a little more spirit...

And I was wondering, what is atonal theory? I'm VERY interested in learning more about this.

Nice! This is one of the least "remixable" sources I can think of (Ducktales aside), very nice groove and sweet synthwork in the background.

Shit.

I'm definitely in love with that song and I haven't even played fucking Earthbound. The ideas and solo, although weird and dissonant, have an awesome flowing quality. Definitely a keeper, this needs more love.

Tell me I'm not the only one who noticed this...

Have any of you played Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon, for N64?

Yeah. This reminds me SO much of Ghost Toys Castle... At least I'm pretty sure that's the place. It uses an extremely simmilar synth set... It's crazy. I want to ask the guy if that's where he got the idea for this from.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong; the mix is crazy awsome. I love it.

This is so ridiculously off-kilter that I almost peed my pants with joy. I love this song.

This mix sounds like the theme from Seinfeld on weed, ecstacy, and crack.

Good job.

I like this mix, but It gives me a headache after a little while....I guess i'd give it a B or something.....I like the song you remixed though

I feel honored that my request to Mazedude got posted here.

I've been dying to hear a remix of Battle 1 for years

It was fulfilled beforehand. What you meant to say is you've been dyig to hear a

proffesionally made and well arranged remix of Battle 1 for years.

No, I mean I talked to Mazedude and asked him to give it a shot because I think the song would fit perfectly with his style of remixing, and hot damn does it ever.

I always figured Mazedude would be the best guy to attempt this track and it's just a fantastic job.

I'd love to hear more attempts on the piece, but it would be damned hard to make a Battle 1 remix as trippy as this.... PERFECTLY captures the feel and soul of Earthbound.
