Actually, I was making all kinds of wrong guesses all the way through I-Robot. Like one of those old who-done-it movies with Hercule Poirot. I wasn't surprised about who did murder the old man, but boy did I suspect everyone along the way. In that respect, it did what it set out to do. Back to the t...

Ack! Movie topic... Must... Get... Involved! I cannot wait to see Chronicles of Riddick. Pitch Black was one of the best sleeper hits of recent years. The best part was that my favourite trio of characters survived. The crossdresser, the priest and the best anti-hero since Snake Plisken. Everyone wh...

Screw 'em I say. No taste some people.

Have to ask that guy who made the AC/DC comment if he's ever heard them? The remix sounds nothing like any AC/DC song I ever heard. Ah, what the hell, maybe he's just deaf.

Nah, computer audio went downhill with the PlayStation and the ability to stream huge lumps of pre-generated audio rather than chip tunes. Actually, the PSone soundchip worked a lot like a SID. Sure, there were a lot of games that did use streaming, but the true classics were composed on that chip....

Yeah, it rocks. It goes without saying really. :D

It's good to see somebody trying a Human Race tune other than subtune 4. This is one of my favorites from that, so cool.

Absolutely gorgeous. I'm still on my first listen here, but it's blowing my socks off. Hang on... And... Its finished. Yeah, like it a lot. Have to admit, the heavy part of the song kind of ruined some of that chilly fantasy atmosphere for me. It all sounds good, but the bit at 3:42... Sounds awesom...

Heh, Resident Evil was laugh a minute stuff. "What? What is this?" "What is it?" "Blood. I hope this is not Chris' blood." "What is it?" Silent Hill was good too. Harry sounds like he's on drugs. "Hmm... School. She's at the school." Whoa man! She mi...

Aw crap. :cry: You know me, massive soundtrack fan. Never forget the blaster beams of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, or the sheer, shat-pants terror of The Omen and Alien.

Actually, the part at 1:43 is live guitar. Its just heavily overdone with a flange type effect. Maybe I went a little over the top there, hehe. Also, I did heavily detune the strings in places, just to see what weird noises and bends I could make. True, it didn't turn out so good and sounds like i'm...

I really like the rythm guitar as it is. When you turn up the bass on your speakers, its like a gutpunch. Absolutely freakin' lovely.

Oh yeah, I got a laugh out of that little clean strum at the end. Why, Ido not know. Perhaps I'm way too easily amused.

Neat. :)

Last Ninja 2 (earthshock)

Sorry, oops. This has been up at VG mix for a while now. I totally forgot to get your opinions guys. We cant have that can we? Anyways. Its the sewers loader theme in an electronic, trippy style. I haven't shied away from putting some guitar in there, but it's mainly synthetic stuff. A departure for...
