Random Favourites

Just so you guys know, I occasionally favorite adult material. Therefore, you may sometimes see adult material in my Favorites.

How redundant can you be being redundant?

... did RushJet1 actually take something I said to-heart?  Did he actually just do... a straight-up enhancement project instead of radically remixing things?  Did he  resist the urge to cram so much vibrato into each song that it phases into the center of your skull??  Holy fruits!

Now, don't get me wrong.  I like remixes and I really like vibrato.  One of my favorite musicians, Tim Follin, was a grandmaster of the C64/NES vibrato and I loved all of this soundtracks.  Heck, even I use a bit of vibrato in my own 2A03 arrangements.  But RushJet1... tends to go way overboard in every single project he does in 2A03 or VRC6-style.  At least, he did in the past.  With this project, though?  Not so much.  Sure, there's a  little vibrato here and there, but it's subtle, and it's well-utilized instead of being shoehorned into every single song in the soundtrack.
As for the arrangements?  Sometimes it's good to go big and go grand.  I've listened to plenty of  OC ReMixes that sound almost nothing like the original songs.  Some of them sound great, some don't.  I've also heard plenty of VRC6 or 2A03 arrangements and remixes of various tunes.  Again, I also work on them myself.  A lot of them are mediocre, but to my ears, RushJet1's previous efforts were... offensive.  He tried to hard to push the boundaries and abused the sound channels in horrible ways.  His arrangements were usually sped up or slowed down and completely ruined the original feeling of the songs.  Which this project though, he kept it simple.  Not "simple" as in "very basic"... but "simple" as in "he stuck pretty close to the base songs".  And it worked magnificently!  The arrangements aren't over-the-top and don't try to be bombastic, high-energy, epic scores that knock you out of your chair with each note.  They're only as intense as they need to be and keep the atmosphere of the originals while adding to them.

I have to be honest...  This is the best thing I have ever heard come from RushJet1.  I was expecting it to be yet another vibrato-fest VRC6 "super-remix" album... but no!  It's a straight-up arrangement soundtrack.  And by-god, I actually like it-- no!  I dare say... I love it!  ... I really, really do.

You've completely turned me around, RushJet1.  Big kudos to you on this one!  I don't know if this soundtrack was done the way it was specifically because of the unfavorable things I've said in the past (which would be pretty cool, if you did), but either way, very nice soundtrack!
