Song Remix: A song that is unaltered in length But tune is Changed to another form of music, or changed instruments but still work as a song. And if a person were hear the so called remix he/she should know the song if that person has heard the original first.

I should have been more clear in the first place.

find and post your Favorites!

Also i am sorry if some one already did this.

I've never really come across any Golden Sun remixes, though that 8-bit theme is pretty awesome.

[Rolina]

I'm surprised, ACTUAL remixes.  Usually it's just a stupid instrument swap, but in this case, though slight, they are remixes.  Nice find.

[zman9000]

I also remember coming across some more that were even better... but I can't remember where i heard them...

And i found a 16 bit remix but its not as good as the 8 bit.

[Hoopa]

Really? I thought the 16-bit one was better.

[Griever]

Nice >< Isaac's theme Metal Version is really nice 

[zman9000]

I hope to find out how they did the metal versions because i would like to make all the songs metal and just re make GS1 and GS2 but with metal or remix songs.

and if i do Or one of you find a list of metal or other true remix songs Please post them here on this
sight and in this Forum.

thanks

This song is so haaawt. No, really, listen to the whole thing before saying anything.

Also that 8 bit song doesn't sound very 8 bit to me...

[zman9000]

EDIT: Also i want remixes not just songs that people edit to make their own.
Because that is what that is. Its not a remix as far as i am aware but i could be wrong.

[spoiler]umm ... no... that... was... just... wtf![/spoiler]

Umm? i want who ever reads this next to listen to that song before you read my thoughts because i want a fair vote on it. And listen to the whole thing!

My thoughts...
[spoiler]that sucked.
i have no clue what i was listening to!

i mean the song doesen't even start till 4:00 and ends at 5:55!!
the rest is just some fool messing around with some outdated sound editing soft ware!?!?!?!?!?![/spoiler]

more of my thoughts...
[spoiler]I almost feel like opening a pole for people to listen to it and vote ether ( like, hate, vomited, or died. ) [/spoiler]

but some one tell me what you think cause i am at a loss for words.

I found it to be an interesting tune, though I agree with zman on most of what he had to say. It is hard to say whether it is a remix or an addition to the song, but the original segment was altered enough to constitute a remix.

[Awec]

I couldn't be bothered to listen to the whole thing.

Although for some reason, that seems to be what 'remix' is defined as, at least in the music industry; take a song, add in unnecessary noise and make whatever's left unrecognisable.


Pretty much, no. Just... no.

[Charon]

Um, it's exactly a remix of the song. I don't see why you don't think it is. It does have a huge amount of lead up (which is why I told people to actually listen to the whole song) but it isn't supposed to be an exact replica of the song anyhow.

It might be that you don't like techno (which is a legitimate reason enough), but it's a remix either way. And Zman... Just... no. Music is a taste, to be honest the 8 bit version you posted sounded just awful after a while, and definitely NOT 8-bit (although I do like the metal remixes, although they're... not exactly metal >;P ). The song I posted is a weird but original techno interpretation of Venus Lighthouse, but the "8-bit" thing you posted was just a midi of the original song chugged through a shoddy 8-bit emulator. In order to truly replicate 8-bit's abilties, you actually have to study how the sounds were built in the first place, which it's obvious that person did not. I really think that the reason why you absolutely hated it was because it was considered a "remix", perhaps if you listened to it as an original piece you would have liked it... which is unnacceptable for critism. Really.

Anyhow, a lot of techno uses the same techniques that were used 10 years ago, which makes a lot of songs share the same sound effects. This makes some people hate techno but I personally love it. XD

I've heard it before, and I think the same thing now that I thought back then. It's cool if you start it around 2:30, but the first two and a half minutes are tedious to listen to. The source material only starts being recognizable at 2:55, which is totally unacceptable imo. I don't care if the source material is barely recognizable, as long as you can sorta tell what it comes from after a short while in. As it is, it's more like they were trying to make a whole new song and while they were making it they realized that they started to drift into venus lighthouse, and then decided to run with it.

Also, the ending was lame.

*Thread. Or topic. But not forum. The forum is the collection of threads/topics.

They'd be in the wrong format, anyway. GS uses midi instruments, and only a small selection of them, at that.

Wrong. It's a common misunderstanding, but you just defined an arrangement. Er... for the most part, anyway. Arrangements switch around the instruments a bit while still keeping the core song the same. Most "remixes" you hear on the web are in fact arrangements, perhaps with some lightly remixed portions. Perhaps "cover" would even be a more appropriate term for a lot of "remixes" you hear.

A remix is a song that keeps the core melody of another, while also adding something new and original to it. The core melody can be altered in a remix, as long as it is kept recognizable. There is absolutely no rule anywhere that the length of the song has to remain the same or even remotely similar. Remixes will add parts and change parts to "make it their own," so don't you dare say something isn't a remix just cause it changed something, because that's actually an indicator that the song is indeed a remix.

In cases of both arrangements and remixes, you should be able to tell what the source material is, but remixes will differ much more noticeably from the original. I probably could have explained everything a lot better, but that should give you the general gist of it. If you're really interested in finding out the difference between arrangements and remixes, I would suggest you do some research on the subject.

Since in a lot of cases, and for a lot of people, it can be difficult to tell the difference between an arrangement and a true remix, I don't think there would be any complaints if both were posted in this thread. And personally, I enjoy both a good remix and a good arrange, and I'll admit to also being guilty of calling one or the other the wrong term sometimes.

Anyway, this is why I personally dislike that venus caelestis song. It may introduce a lot of new material, and thus technically qualify as a remix, but it barely does anything with the source material, and ends up just playing it really safe once it gets going. It doesn't help that the new material is pretty basic, too. Venus caelestis is most definitely a remix, but not a very good one.

Oh, so you'll let us post songs that you may not *personally* consider a remix! How generous! We totally needed your permission to post in this thread, amirite? I mean, it's not like this is an open forum or anything, or that a lot of songs can blur the line between arrangement and remix. /sarcasm

[Charon]

Yeah I do wish it had a better ending. XD But I really liked it from about 2:00-ish to about 30-45 seconds from the end.

Also, Leafgreen is totally right. I tend to lean more towards abstract remixes because remixes that just compile the song with different instruments tend to make me wonder why I bothered listening. lol

[zman9000]

wow i suck at explaining things........ and spelling... and i have said i suck at spelling in the past (let it go)

OK what are songs that are not changed in length but have a different tune???

I really would like to find a complete set of metal version songs for golden sun so when  the editor is ready for it i could swap them out.

And idk what song you post screw the topic name post anime for all i care!

what is the purpose of putting a pots in a area if you don't follow some rules????
I am just confused as to what I am to say because it seems that what ever i say i get hate for it....

[Charon]

The reason why you annoyed me with what you said was because you were implying that the reason why it was bad was because it wasn't a note-by-note remix, and that you got borderline vulgar with your hate for it. If you don't like it, that's fine, but you don't have to be a total 5 year old about it.

(I'll be honest though I can't understand half of what you just said)

Anyhow, off topic slightly, but I really have begun to hate PokemonRemixChannel's remixes. They all start to sound the same after a while... >_>

[Pkmn-Master]

So are we allowed to post arrangements or not?

EDIT: Because I have a couple that I was gonna post.

[Charon]

I was at school and they blocked youtube, so go ahead. XD
