Well Now...
You have certainly proved that the Super Mario Brothers theme can indeed be translated into ska... And rather well I might add.
By the way, do you think the underwater theme would makr a classical waltz? I do...
Reviews for "Super Mario Bros. (Punk Remix)"
giftedbuttwisted responds:
Thanks and yeah I think so
Trumpet killed it
seriously if your making a punk mix, keep it punk.
Would like to see a remastered version of this too
giftedbuttwisted responds:
Hmm well the style we were goin for was like Less Than Jake type punk, and this is the remastered version lol =P
Love it
Great stuff. Sometimes I forget that the audio portal is good for any genre of music - not just synth-trance. This is a great reminder.
Here are a few critics (In my humble opinion, of course)...
-The mix could be changed a bit to give it more balance. The guitars seem a bit loud. I know it's supposed to be punk / ska but the guitars seem to overpower the drums and horns.
-There are a few parts that I don't agree with musically. For example, at around 0:30, the rhythm guitars should go lower on the first note. Right now it sounds like it's doing C then A and repeated but I feel like it should be G# then C and repeated. This is following the original score of the music, though. If this is how you planned it then disregard. Listening to it just sounds off to and I'm left expecting it to change and it doesn't.
Anyway, sorry for the long-winded review. I hope this is more helpful than insulting. Overall, I love the piece and hope to hear more like it.
Thanks,
Larkeep

Yeah there needs to be more punk on here lol. As far as the mix goes, I'm in no way a professional haha I'm a 16 year old kid that records music in his bedroom. This was mixed down on iPod headphones so I think it'll sound pretty good in those (I can't afford monitors). I dont really understand your last criticism lol but you're probably right. And no your review is not insulting, it's really helpful for me and I appreciate it =D
Nice! But...
Doesn't this sound more among the lines of something that's Ska (Sublime for example)? Its mostly all the trumpet stuff going on in there...
But good song none the less! Good job!
giftedbuttwisted responds:
Nahh not Sublime, more Less Than Jake/Reel Big Fish
Ok with SOME flaws
It is an excellent Peace
But
Mario Music was NEVER EVER really gonna go well with Punk
It just makes the Mario music Die out and let Punk take over
When Listening It sounded all punk very little Mario
........so yeah Agreeing with DarkWiz666 with his facts too
No Offense to this
