Nitro Man's is okay, don't really like Solar Man's (which is a shame, because he's my favorite RM theme for MM10), and Against the Pressure & and Last Exit are pretty cool. Looks to be very hit and miss. Listening to these just make me wish I were listening to Gencoil's arrangements instead. His arrangements sound way better. >_>
ReplyDeleteI haven't listened to these yet, and I will post responses when I get the chance, but I'm looking forward to these more than I am the remixes I've heard so for, and that includes E-Tank and MuseNote's mixes.
ReplyDeleteTAG, you got the links to Gencoil's stuff?
I liked them all okay, except Last Exit.
ReplyDeleteThe credit with lyrics is a little too "Dragon ballish". But i like it ! Solar Inferno looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds alright. I don't really care much for jpop. I'm just glad they didn't try to deviate in style as much as they did for the RM9 AST.
ReplyDeleteFavorite track from the OST has got be "Against the Pressure". Curious as to what "Abandoned Memory" sounds like.
Stylistically it seems better and more consistent than RM9's arrange soundtrack. I loved some of RM9's arranged tracks, though.
ReplyDeleteWily Stage 1 was awesome!

Don't start calling me a liar, n00b, etc. if you think they suck. I'm entitled to my opinions. *whips out torch* Stay back, Troll. STAY BACK! :P
I think they all sound rather good for remixes!.. Is it just me, or do some, or most, sound alot like.. Mega Man X3 era music.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, it just reminds me of the old X games. :3 Which makes them all the sweeter!
Nitro - What? They kept it synth? Huh. Okay.
ReplyDeleteSolar - I still love it. They missed an opportunity with a crowd clap on the part where there's usually the percussion in MM10, but hey, it's rockin'.
Against - 10/10! Perfect! Didn't miss a beat! And that's Wily Stage 2! Can't imagine 1!
Last Exit - Well this is supposed to be a song for effect anyway. In which case, it does well. I notice a twinge of '80s style in it, which I think is the idea.
Already beating MM9? Amazing.
TAG - Ah, that IS E-Tank! Look, Gencoil's doing some nice remixes, but they're definitely fan pieces. It's still missing some instrumentation like these samples, some presence. And, dare I say it, it stays too close to the source material. I hate saying that, 'cause then you get stuff like MM9's AST where it just tangents...
Nitro Man's remix is alright. I'm a little disappointed with it. I wish it didn't sound so synth-y. Solar Man's remix is pretty cool, Against the Pressure kicks ass, and the last one is not bad. This Arrange Album sounds a lot better than the Rockman 9 Arrange Album.
ReplyDeleteTeh sound samples sounds Rock X and Zero which is good thumbs up in that music.
ReplyDeleteThe ending theme sounds like a classic kamen rider music theme, I thinks.
ReplyDeleteGotta say i'm pretty disappointed with the RM arrangements. They could have been more heavier on Solar and not sound sync-y with an awesome theme like Nitro's. They don't sound bad they could just have been better. Much much better.
ReplyDeleteAgainst the pressure is AWESOME. Gotta love the added guitar solo part. I hope they do Abandoned Memory this kick ass.
I don't care for Last Exit.
@HyperSonicEXE: BACK TROLL, BACK I SAY! *waves torch menacingly* :P
ReplyDeleteBut in all seriousness, I can sorta understand what you mean by the first part, but that doesn't really bother me. I'm a tad baffled with your second statement. But I think you want something that has a little pizazz to it and not just something that you would normally expect. IMO, i prefer something that stays close to the source material. But again, it's all opinion.
Ooh... Now I have a name to go along with my MIDI. "Nemesisphere"... That is a nifty name right there. I hope they don't ruin it. :(
