ReMix:Mega Man 2 "Chillout" 5:13

COOOOOOL opening notes - I almost imagine hanging icicles being tapped instead of piano keys. That establishing detail practically dictates the rest of the mix: the gentle, heavenly tone makes me look up (figuratively and literally) and, true to the title, really does help me chill out, especially after a hard day. Plus, the whole progression is kind of evocative of an ending theme, fostering a satisfying sense of closure/completion.

That vocal sample is siiiiick, and really helps sell this otherwise conservative arrangement. The production and soundscape is really nice, and though it's mostly just a sound upgrade, it's a really good one.

check the thread in the WIP forum to make sure but this was the inspiration for his remix, and I believe he sampled the vox here for his mix.

Aye, you're right. I read Mr. Belmont reference SEDUCTiON a while back and forgot. Love it, but still stand by my Muppets comment.

I love the music in this track. It's amazing. Reminds me of Akumajo Belmont's "For You."

I love the music in this track. It's amazing. Reminds me of Akumajo Belmont's "For You." The vocals are not working for me though. They sound like the female version of the Swedish Chef from the Muppets . See YouTube links below if you are not familiar with him.

Are the vocals are computer/syth generated?

Sounds like a whirlwind... at the same time it sounds like it's filled with emotions (though probably not love). Don't give up. Try to add more "colors" to your palette by drawing on your life experiences and see what you can come up with. Don't worry about anybody waiting.. it should really be all about you when it comes to what you make - when you're ready, your public will be there.

There's no other song on here i've heard as many times as this one. Sounds like you've been through some really tough times though. I hope you get through it. Don't give up on your creativity. It might return when you least expect it.

Hey ppl...

As you already noticed, I haven't kept my promise to upload a new song in the past few months(since my last post).

The thing is I've lost my creativity. I can't create music with emotion anymore. I've done couple of songs but they just don't meet my standards, so I have not uploaded them. When I made megaman 2 chillout remix, I was 16 years old and MADLY in love and that relationship crashed as fast as it started. I would give anything for her to even listen to me nowadays. And for the "radical changes in my life", they include jail, homelessness and therapy. I've been putting my life together and I am sorry for ppl waiting for new songs. Sorry.

been long ti me i me an't wa t i said though but, as for Asian women singin, i actua lly mean't some thin like bjork, i am orignally fro m Nor way,trond heim. i feel like song make think of true absolute and forbidden love. kool uh? sedure, tanx fo song!

Exciting news to hear.

Hello, It's Joni here.

It's been almost 5 years since I made this and I, again, thank you all for your comments.

In the past 5 years I've had some radical changes in my life and so the composing has been non-existant, literally. But now I've been putting my life together again and found some new inspiration for my music, so you can expect some new remixes in few months

To ppl asking for Megaman 2 sheet music:

I don't have the sheet music, I made this entirely by ear. I would somehow transform this song to sheet if I could, but unfortunately the .rns(Reason song file) was destroyed along with my old HDD

Sincerely,

Joni Anttila aka SEDUCTiON(new alias: sedure)

The vocals make the piece for me. After the first round of the singing, I spend the rest of the song waiting for it to return. The singing reminds me vividly of Princess Mononoke, and brings the beautiful imagery of that film to my mind. I've seen people bashing the chord change near the end, but I love it. It ramps up the intensity, and paired with the vocals that kick in, it sounds almost tragic. I love it.

Still listen to this one all the time. Great take on this track. I have to say I'm not sure what people aren't liking in the vocals. I think they add a real nice element.

gah, i really love the piano bit, especially the left hand accompaniment... How can we get the sheet of this? I really wanna play it !

I tried mailing Joni, but i think his mail is dead

come on, somebody help me! ther's gotta be a way to get the sheet!! I mean, except writing it myself, I suck way too much at this, and when the choral gets in, its impossible...

a solution: are there any good sheets of the dr wily's castle? i tried michael gluck's one, but i didn't find it incredible

Please help me!

No thanks.

I don't quite know what came in at 0:37, but that derailed the mix for me. ;

It'd be a whole lot better if it didn't have that "weeeOOOOoo" sound.

Yeah, not my kind of mix.
