yes c&k i remember for sure thanx for the great review
your track is -as usual- very good and to make the comunity proud
the starting loop made me get my hands away from the keyboard and listen, ur added beat is perfictly mixed and compressed , the variations are great and smothly arranged , the flanger on 1:25 is great , is that hardware?
the transition at 1:50 kicks ass good orintal feeling that super mario like sounds are good, funny also
really like the track and 10/10 for thatthe transition at 1:50 kicks ass good orintal feeling
cheers

Ahhh another great track you have here and completley nuts to boot heh. Seems to have a old computer game feel to it with all the blips and stuff and definately more old school but today it sounds great to me. The only thing I dont like it it seems a little too tinny in places with so much going on but its all good eh. nice one

another great track... I saw this one when it was posted ages ago but I missed it.. I was busy with other stuff.. it matters not...
2 main complaints on this wonderful track (yes, wonderful.. please don't make me do the rim job thing again)...
1 - there is something seriously fooked about the EQ or compression or SOMETHING!!!.... it's the phone effect/box/tunnel/wash/blah balh yadder yadder something.... mess around with it and fix it.. it's annoying cause on the other side of that nasty ''effect'' I hear a great tune... (maybe some bass - as has been said)
2 - why don't you guys quit fr*ckin around and put out a complete album? take a damn hiatus from sZ... make an album... make it complete.. make it full... make it worthwhile and great... just do it... and if you got a problem with selling it then make it a complete downloadable MP3 album... I'll make some GFX for you.. I can do pen, ink, vector, 3d... whatever.. what do you want? (plus there's other people here that are visual artists - do a contest) I'm sure the croc part would be easy to come up with... who is wund3r, that dude from blaster master? if Z has a problem with hosting I can take care of that too... just do it already... really run the whole croc and wund3r thing into the ground all at once instead of slow and painful-like...
seriously... fix those things... they both annoy me

Artist Reply :: 2.10.2005 :: yo jay! thanks for the review man... part two really thrilled me.... but i'm really stumped as to what you're talking about in part 1... the eq or compression bit... if you could be more specific about what you're talking about, we'd appreciate it. i -kind- think it sounds fucking great! (at least quality-wise) so, please... let a brother know ;) peace :: by: cruel_and_kind

Hey. Haven't heard any of your stuff yet so I figured I would take a listen. That main melody reminds me of something that I have heard, and I'm trying desperately to think of it, but it not coming. Not important really. Quite a loony track here. It almost sounds like a beefed up version of an old nes game or something. Oh my god. I'm listening for the second time and I'm noticing that donkey call. Freakin crazy. I love that vocoded synth in there. If thats what it is. Sounds good. What game is that at the end? Thats the mario coin pick up i think. Dont know about the other sound. This track is a little tough to listen to. The beats are good. I don't know much about saturation or anything else for that matter so I won't comment on how they *sound.* Cool track - origional - and thats a plus. Take it easy.

heya brother's,
with all the full and complete honesty bocf portion can provide crocodylectual famous sz'rs style can say i am not really a fan. actually quite strange that i do not like gwarn and the mau5 remix . but hey.. somebody needs to do that uh?
soundwise it sounds to dry and metallic for me i guess and my brains do not connect so good with humour+music..
that is my conclusion..
ze fun and charmos of the blu boss is also quite gone so now i have this track to listen to.
btw.. i have respect for tha skills though. nice pro-i sounding . it is just my taste stuff talking stuff today and tomorrow.
this track misses an good atmosphere and the melodies are way too funny aka lame. works on my nervos. beats are not my friend here really. they are programmed skillfully.. taht is not the problemo.. but just there sound is not cool. it does not much with my braincells. it all sounds to synthetic for me i guess and the structure does not surprise me. syntheticness can be nice i guess though, but then it needs an more futuristic flavour.
next time i would go for an warmer sound and more serious melodies and more magical beauty but i am aware of the fact that this is all very subjective.
though.. i think that it is maybe an objective fact that kind of humoristic melodies (can) become lame after more and intense listening. an other fact is maybe that the beats create an non-intended monoton vibe that makes the track a bit characterless shy-i what gwarn did not have.
productionwise quite cold but objectively i think it sticks and fits quite decnt together so i shall give ya an mark called almost sufficient.
btw..
hope this harshness is kind of interesting. please drop me an very harsh review or two. we can only learn from it.
happy new year!

twin Artist Reply :: 1.1.2005 :: bang on mate, bang on. its the beats, something was never quite right about them, i think its to do with saturation, it just seems to suck the organic natural sound out of it, its the tape distortion on the scream in reason. the more easy method is to put in a break in the dr rex as its been previously tweaked by pro engineers but im trying to do things myself. i thought ijust about got a decent result from the beats but thanks for the heads up, ill try even harder on my next one. keep up the honesty plz, both cruel and kind have had enough of the be nice to me and ill be nice to you and top 20's for all then we get cake policy that seems to be going round at the mo. keep doing it.......take our blessing and go forth. :: by: cruel_and_kind
