To clarify: The pan flute is from the SM64 soundfont. It was ripped straight from the game.


I was randomly thinking of melody ideas when I went "Hey, i should remix the SM64 File Select song!". And so I did. Made the melody by memory, and everything else was all mine xp

Nice! A little more emphasis on the beat would've really brought this home, since we're going with something trappy. That way, you transform the melody from something saccharine to something peppy. It'll help alleviate the repetitive nature of a loop.
Taking the melody out for a spin, using sound effects from the game to pull us into something else for a second would have also been great.

Nice work!

Skiddle responds:

Heh, yeah you're right about the sound effects. I couldn't find any really (I made this mainly offline & i don't have data lmao), but thanks for your great review Jacob :D

This is really nice, It feels quite Nostalgic to me and I just don't know why (Maybe because it's SM64).
Also if you want to use more Nintendo synths but in Higher Quality, consider picking up Roland Sound Canvas.

Skiddle responds:

thanks Chillius! It'll be hard to pick up Roland because I have no fucking money XD. I'm glad you enjoyed this :)

Dude, you need more variation on your track. It feels bland and boring because of the lack of different melodies. Drums are kinda okay, but you should work more on the main melody. It's so repetitive that I can't even identify whether that part was the intro, build-up, or drop. Get well soon :>

Skiddle responds:

There is no build-up, Intro or drop. The melody is from Super Mario 64, and that's the entire melody. It's a loop from a game, of course this is repetitive. IOt's a bootleg: it's nowhere near perfect.

This is ok, but the mix needs a bit of work, and it is a little too repetitive. You use caustic?
Don't.

Skiddle responds:

You don't decide on what I use. And as I said in the last review: this is a bootleg, not a remix. A bootleg has awful mixing and is often rushed. I can use whatever software I find I like.

Pretty good, but add in another instrument or two to spice it up a bit. Also, what would be cool would be to add in a short, raspy, wind-ish riser right before the first note to not make it sound as harsh.

Skiddle responds:

It's a bootleg, meaning it was made really fast with poor mixing. Caustic is very limited, and doesn't really have one. I just made this for me, but I appreciate your advice. (:
