This is like elevator music (that's a good thing as far as I'm concerned!) - I really love it, it's exactly what I was looking for! I wanted something similar enough to the original to be recognized as Gangnam (for a family video of me doing the horse dance) but not something identical note-for-note that would result in a copyright claim on YouTube. I wish it was longer, but I think you've done an excellent job of stylizing the tune while still having it sound enough like Gangnam.
I'm glad it has no vocals because it made it easy for me to sing my own version of some of the lyrics .
Thank you for making this!
Reviews for "Gangnam Style Remix"
Step responds:
Haha well I'm glad you're finding a use for it. Thanks for leaving a review!
Let's see here...
The Good:
-NOTHING! Okay fine, some of the instruments alone are pretty good... BUT THAT'S 'CAUSE YOU'RE USING OMNISPHERE.
The Not-So-Good:
-Mixing is crap, so much is buried.
-Composition is crap.
-Those synced kicks sound really awkward.
-Brickwalled, so my ears are bleeding.
-That detuned main synth sounds like shit.
-Awkwardly long pauses like at 0:40.
Overall: Okay, so just about everything is crap. Therefore, in the context of techno remixes... 9999999/10 LOLOLOLOL THIS IS AWESOME UAHFUHAJDSAJD!
P.S. Yes, I am that cruel. I think this is the second 10/10 I've given you. And. It's a joke. c:

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT THIS IS THE BEST SONG EVERRRR.
oppa gangnam style
Step responds:
Yes.
Its by playing with our weaknesses that we become stronger and surely composing out of our comfort zone is hard like hell but also fun!
I thing its really hard to remix Gangnam Style without vocals and you did what you could :D
As for the song itself it has all been said by Buoy.
Step responds:
Yeah, I finished this in one night while really tired, since there's a very strict deadline, so that probably didn't make it sound much better. And yeah going out of your comfort zone can be really awesome sometimes. In this case it wasn't but that's probably because I was told to make this rather than have the freedom to make it myself, so rather than willingly make music I was pretty much just following orders. Ah well, it'll be worth it in the end anyway.
Thanks for reviewing man.
I like how your approach is almost adorably similar to your classical songs... like in 0:38 and 1:13
also this is not good. The mix is bad and the sounds are cheesy and don't fit together and a lot of notes are weird it doesn't flow well at all. But I think you know that, lol
Step responds:
NO WAY MAN THIS IS MY BST SBMISSION EVERRR.
Can't hear the similarity at 0:38 since that's pretty much the same thing that happens in the original but yeah I can hear the similarity at the end haha.
Yeah this isn't very good. I haaaate this genre, and it's pretty much impossible to compose good music in a genre you hate.
Thanks for the review :3.
