ReMix:Super Metroid "Energy Tank" 4:24

Super Metroid meets Extreme G/F-Zero/some other futuristic racer. I can hear the Extreme G bikes in the background while listening to this very loudly.

Love this mix. Simple, driving sounds, very pleasing and not obnoxious. Always get chills at 2:20 when everything kicks into high gear. I'm torn on the piano ending; it's not bad but I just don't think it belongs with the rest of the song. Probably still my fav Super Metroid remix.

Wow, what a killer bassline! Wow, this one's really fun to listen to... the transition that OA pointed out is great and the section that immediately follows, where the source is most apparent, is also really catchy

I'm pleasantly surprised by this! When I read "accessible techno remix" in the write-up, I subconsciously groaned and let out a "here we go again..." I'm glad to say this exceeded my expectations in almost every way!

I never think of uptempo tracks when it comes to Metroid, so this was a big surprise to me, but though I don't often hear the source connection (though the included breakdown sure helped), it was a pretty rocking track. Some awesome syncopated beats around the 1:55 point, followed by an absolutely mindblowing transition to the next section. This is how it's done, folks.

Overall really driving and cool. Great work, and "I can't believe it's Metroid!"

Really catchy. I love the synth textures, the pulsing beat, and the wonderful improvisation. The bass really gets me. Standard techno in the best way possible. Wonderful remix of the source material that brought me to OCR a long time ago...

And I love the piano ending. It's classy.

Personally, I love this song. It's one of those songs that's good for working out or running because it has that "pump up" sort of feel.

If there's one thing I would change, I would make the piano melody that's present in the last few seconds of the song present throughout the entire piece.

Overall, I give this song a 9.5/10. It's perfect in almost every way, but still has room for some minor improvements.

i had the part around 2:20 with the main theme stuck in my head all last week and couldn't think of which remix it was from, until i stumbled upon it again just now.

i really think thats the best part, and i wish there had been more development of it than just playing it in the theme once. maybe a shorter intro, then the highlight, then another developmental part and a return to the main section, then finishing after that. i think i just wish i could hear more of it without clicking back to the same spot over and over again =)

but thats just me.

There are some pretty cool ideas here. The texture of the piece established a good metroid-ish atmosphere while still being danceable. I just didn't like the ending. It seemed relatively empty after the rest of the song had established such a dense atmosphere especially with all the bass, and I thought it was disappointing.

It's cool that so much could be extruded from such a skimpy original. The trancy aspect was handled very well. The minimal thing in the middle didn't quite work tonally. But, hey, it's danceable and the piano at the end is purty. Overall an interesting interpretation.

I can't stop listening to this mix either. High quality work that goes from adventure to action to resolution so adroitly. I can feel Samus attempting to survive this "boss battle" at first and then coming back to serve the alien all the pain the Chozos can dish out!

I simply can't stand this song. It is the single most basic remix I've heard since I tried to do something! Who can honestly admit that listening to that sound you get from holding many keys on your keyboard for too long is good for a song. I just can't understand this.

I CANNOT Stop listening to this song. Props to the mixer

I do have one addition to the previous post, now that a little time has past... my only complaint is that it is too short! Perhaps that's why some of the people think the mix is boring - because there is a lot of what could be considered intro and comparatively there isn't much of a body to the song. As I see it, the body of the song is at 2:20 and ends slightly before 3:10. I remember someone saying that this would be great as a Metriod live-action version of a battle scene or something, and it really works well in this light. If it were to be a standalone track, that portion from 2:20 to 3:10 should be expounded upon. My original opinion still stands, though. I want more stuff like this! Ja ne!

Awesome mix! I didn't feel that it was too liberal, especially since the main flute-ish theme comes in once the original material is developed. I might be the only one saying this, but I think the bassline worked really well, as it effectively drove the beat forward.

A wonderful addition to the Metroid mixes here at OC. I read the Judges Decision on this and was overwhelmed with pros and cons, but I think that the production was solid and it wasn't too liberal at all. This would be my first pick for an action scene in a Metroid movie. Great Track

So I beat Prime 2 Echoes just the other night and I know it doesn't really relate, but it's been making me think about Super Metriod again.. gotta break out the SNES again and try to beat my old time. Always loved the Brinstar theme, and this was a great rendition and variation of it! Awesome work, I want more!
