So my girlfriend loved your cover so much she wanted to hear the genesis original. The look of disappointment on her face when she heard the Genesis version has been burned into my mind for all eternity.

As much as I love Savaged Regime's remixes, I like the original better. That is not to say this does not sound good, but the lack of drums and such were a little disappointing.

let's just say Golden Axe 1 could really use this kind of improvement. it's a launch title and it FEELS like it if you're used to 1994+ gen games.

It also helps that there is a touch of reverb throughout all the samples used. It goes a really really long way. There was no way to make reverb sound this clean on original Genesis / Megadrive hardware

I tend to think the YM2612 doesn't handle orchestral arrangements in comparison to other sound chips. Leave it to Savaged Regime to come along and prove me wrong. Stellar arrangement!

@retrosoul8770 5 жыл бұрын

The best orchestral scores that I know of were Gauntlet IV, Master of Monsters, Devilish and Langrisser II. Sadly, (aside from Shining Force 2) all those games are super obscure so no one really knows about them but their scores are truly stellar.

@supermariobro93 5 жыл бұрын

Felwurst von der Moffel All those games mentioned were done by the same composer, Hitoshi Sakimoto (some also alongside Masaharu Iwata). That custom sound driver he used really made the Genesis / Mega Drive sing! :)

@retrosoul8770 5 жыл бұрын

They were truly talented and proved that Genesis orchestral could definitely compete with Snes. Those soundtracks (and this remake) are spectacular. I wish he could have sold or distributed his driver to other developers. Same goes for other Japanese composers who were skilled with FM, like Technosoft or Treasure.

@atanvardo5730 5 жыл бұрын

Nice re-arranged version. Sounds like a 32-64 bits version of the theme. But the original (arcade) Golden Axe music was made by Tohru Nakabayashi and You Takada (some sources credit T. Nakabayashi while others credit Y. Takada, but both worked on the music). Nankyoku, Decky, Imocky were responsible for the sound in the Mega Drive / Genesis port (they made re-arranged versions of the original music for the MD port, but didn't change the Takada and Nakabayashi compositions).

I have a question, if the MD/Gen has these 10 channels, and all are in use, what produces the sound effects in a game? I never notice sound cutting out when playing a game. I'm really curious about speech. If channel 6 is being used for the drum track, where are the voices coming from?

@XBladenoJutsu 5 жыл бұрын

Majority of games just cut out the least important channels, have it play its sound effect really quickly, and then have it switch back to music. PCM channel switches between drums and voices on the fly too.
