ReMix: The 7th Guest 'Microscopism'

"I daresay it's about time for another American Album track to grace the front page of OverClocked ReMix, wouldn't you agree? Hereby I submit what may be my 2nd favorite track on the album - an industrial medley of sorts from the classic PC game, "The 7th Guest." And in a totally wacky time signature too! Originally I wasn't going to go industrial with this... but it just sounded so good! I kept with the original 7th Guest flavor though (piano, congas, muted trumpet, etc). I do have plenty of new music, but it all seems to be embedded in other remix projects or movies these days. In the meantime, enjoy a taste of Fat Man remixage."
If you haven't checked out Mr. Getman's American Album yet, you certainly should - it's a great concept executed wonderfully, and it's especially pertinent today of all days. I dig all of the dude's stuff, but certain pieces always hit me a bit stronger, and this one felt particularly well-developed, plus the industrial bits are just plain fun. Similar to his last mix, Chris has again played some time signature games, messing with our heads. TO writes:
"Very very cool. Reminds me of Descent. with the chord choices around 0:30-1:00. The intro is cool, so it can be as long as it wants. Beats are awesome as always. Good to see you built in the Anti-Moshing defence mechanism as Darke pointed out. I love the jerky-sound the mix has as a result of that time signature."
Not much else to say - simply having Mazedude's name attached to a mix can and should be a guarantee of sorts that there'll be mucho creative arrangement and copious attention to detail; if you've been waiting for something a bit harder, or perhaps spookier (this would have made a great Halloween mix) in particular, Getman's got your number with this piece.
