Chrono Trigger

The phrase 'short punk-rock gem' probably gets over-used, and I'm as guilty as the next would-be music critic, but that sums up this and a couple of JAXX's other hard-and-fast guitar ReMixes I've had the pleasure of posting in the past. Also, I never thought I'd be saying this, but it's been too long since our last Chrono Trigger ReMix (and a hush falls over the crowd). Superchunk rhythm and energetic drums form the bed for two lead guitars on either side of the stereo field to perform a simultaneously beautiful and raucous duet. At times in harmony, and at times trading of bits of melodic phrases, in just a singe minute (exactly!), this track proves its point and then some. JAXX ReMixed 'No Time' before, but this is a decidedly different and equally worthwhile version. Good eats.

Guitar tone was pretty bleh, and 1 minute is way short. It has decent sloppy energy, but Jaxx has way better tracks.

I have lost the count of how many times I´ve said that we all should stop remixing Zeal, but this a giant turntable, sounds like a live concert in the heart of Zeal.
But you did the same mistake as AmIEvil, you did a marvelous guitarmix but made it to short, we want to hear more if that´s your question.
Anyhow, great stuff, JAXX, rock´n rollllllllllll. :tomatoface:

now this is what i call a remix!!( too bad it only last ONE minute tought.. i would have liked to listen to more of it... if you removed the silence lap at the end. it could very well be listened continously in repeat mode. ;)

Really nice. love it

Hey Rimfrost, does your media player have a "loop" function? Admittedly, it might be nicer if it were longer, but the end can blend so well into the start that there's really no need. That and it kicks more ass than you. And I never thought I'd ever like punk rock...

ANY remix , no matter how good and sweet it is , has to be at least 2 mins in length to become enjoyable as we all know..

- RimFrost the Tourianist on July 22, 2004
It's not punk at all though, sounds more like 80s metal..
Sweet remix nonetheless.

Here's to more punk remixes!

Nobody does it like JAXX. And no, this shouldn't be any longer, its perfect the way it is. If you ask me, it kinda sounds like Sum 41 is playing.

Gee, it's a good thing I requested this get posted (hey, credit where credit is due, huh? :D ), or we would've been punk-less! I love it, love it, LOVE IT!

Hi ppl ok
This is a great song
THE Greatness but the only problem with it is that it is too short, it should be longer and has the potential to do so
:D

Ahh another one of JAXX's soft and beutiful pieces.. I think this would make a awsome song in the game itself. Another great piece by JAXX!

This piece fits perfectly into its name of TIME PUNK, its the only punk mix i've seen no this entire site, and fits it very well, the fast beat of chrono's theme placed in completely amazingly played guitar riffs throughly stun me to the point where i just wish i were this good at making anything.
JAXX prooves that no game music has a given style, and with the proper talent, you can make anything sound even better than it does orignally, no matter how great it was.
Amazingly well done song there.

- TheWired on August 7, 2002
The amount of jammage that this mix fits into its teeny-tiny little 1 minute slot is amazing. I wouldn't have wanted it to be any longer - the breifness of it is part of what makes it cool.
Jammage? Oh crap... now I'm talking like djp...

- mDuo13 on July 14, 2002
Yeah, the length is a little disappointing, but overall I love the piece. Really, really fast, and really really nice. I like it a lot.
