Surgeon Pretzel's Warning: Listening to this ReMix at anything less than deafening levels could cause premature loss of soul, squareness, and severe mojo deficiencies. It's nice to see some new faces on the OC ReMix field, especially when their opening ReMixes are as balls-to-the-walls fun as MR_44's industrial techno take on the boss theme from Yuzo's masterful Streets of Rage soundtrack. Heavily distorted and cross-delayed synthage is the staple food, with some heavy drums, even more distorted industrial "shrieks", and lovely audio quotes towards the end as the satisfying ala carte items. This track opens strong and stays that way. Interesting sidenote - I tend to stay away from boss themes, myself, because they're often more repetitive than actual level bgm, but 44 has picked a genre and implementation that well suits this particular type of bgm, which is one of the better boss tracks to begin with. The ReMixer added: "made with a Yamaha rm1x, Waldorf Q, Korg Electribe S (sampler), Roland AX-1 midi controller keyboard (the kind with the guitar strap :) )and recorded to a Roland VS-840EX digital multitracker." Brother got some gear. Gotta check this one out - it packs a lot of whoopass into 2 megs.

i loved the mix. a bit repetitive, but as a whole i thought it was great. one of those mixes i never got around to listening to, because i never played streets of rage.
nice work.

The vocal samples at the end aren't really used to their fullest potential, and everything before that, well..., there isn't really anything noteworthy before the vocal samples.
Ultimately, it's really too repetitive to be interesting.

The transition between the solitary synth back to the full mix is all kinds of akward, but I gotta say this mix is pretty sweet; very driving, But maybe a bit too repetitive.
I remember seeing that movie, and it is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen that I loved.

I love very deep 303’s. This mix defiantly has a lot of that going on. As well as a whole bunch of awesome distortion, and some kick ass vocal samples to wrap it all up. I must say Mr. 44 this one is a treat, excellent work.
