Bionic Commando (RUSKO REMIX)

Rusko has made excellent songs like, “Woo Boost” among others. But his remix of Bionic Commando is ON the hook faster than Super Joe can say Albatross Project! The song is mostly dubstep with some electronic orchestration in between beats. Rusko does total justice to the original and that says a lot because Bionic Commando had top tier music. The song is tight because it starts out with a lo-fi remembrance of the original masterpiece. Then it booms into a full mix that sounds 8-bit yet delicious. The beat is grimy and a little bit funky too. I love how there are samples of the text animations. This is something you see whenever you get a transmission from your allies in one of the communications centers. If you want to learn more about bionic commando check out our review by clicking HERE. The music designers for Bionic Commando would probably be very happy with this remix. Another cool thing about Rusko’s remix of Bionic Commando is that it is based primarily on the beginning stages music. And that’s cool because the beginning stages rock. I’m listening to it right now and I keep blarping everytime I hear the “Text” samples! Right before the second main beat there is a tiny sample that kicks in. It is of when someone is just about to begin communication. The sample is so tight and tiny and it is perfect to begin a phat beat!

If you’ve ever played the game you need to check this Remix of Bionic Commando by Rusko out. It is simply delicious to listen to and it isn’t quite as ear pounding as some of his other work. You can listen to it over and over with only minimal brain damage. So without further ado…Here is Bionic Commando (RUSKO REMIX)!

Galaxyman

The Galaxyman theme from Megaman 9 is smoother than the Milky Way. It is one of the few Megaman themes that is solid enough that it can be listened to solo, without the remix version or anything. It in its raw 8 bit form is a musical legacy that bumps hard. It is definitely a very up-beat song, and the cool thing about it is that it has several mini movements inside it. This is probably due to the fact that it is supposed to be for a Megaman Stage. By keeping the song varied and with several mini movements, the music is enjoyable even on repeat. Unlike other Megaman songs that can tire the ears after a few listens, the Galaxyman theme is very palatable. The first 10 seconds of the song is decent but is just a warm up to what happens next. There is fat arpeggios and sick drums. The melody is so slick and downright devious that it makes the listener feel like they are jamming through space and time.

Here’s a video so you can listen to the song for yourself.

DJ Layla

What’s better than two beautiful Romanian girls with great haircuts? Take those two same beautiful girls and let them make some top notch positive dance music! DJ Layla bumps a totally loving life feeling dance track called, “I Don’t Wanna Loose You.” The song was composed by Radu Sirbu who is featured in several of DJ Layla’s music videos and the enchanting Alissa does the vocals. I am a real sucker for dance music and especially trance music, but when there is good female vocals on it I am totally sold. “I Don’t Wanna Loose You” does so much for me when it comes to a poppy dance track. You can totally hear the Romanian accent/localization of the English verse in the song. There is a part where Alissa says, “My heart…my heart’s bleeded…” and I think it is completely adorable. Who cares if they don’t speak perfect English? That’s not the point. The beat is so mellow dance that it is perfect while drinking San Pellegrino. It is so cool checking out the YouTube video of their music and reading the comments, especially from Romanian and other European people. Instead of the traditional American comments that I read that are super critical of artists and their style and their sexual preferences. People say things like, “…you girls are amazing keep it up & follow your dreams 5***** & greetz from the NL…” NL stands for Netherlands just in case you were wondering.

This isn’t my most intense and serious music that I write my most epic posts about. It is something fun and fresh that puts me in a good mood. Do I listen to this song over and over again on repeat? Yes I do. And it’s not for the music video/slide show either. It is a good, cute, song. Music like this needs to be shared because it has such a chill vibe. One thing I like about the song is that it has a very short intro that gives the listener a preview of the theme melody of the song and then it immediately gets into core of the vocals. The chorus is repeated several times. This isn’t a very lyrical song. It is mostly repetition, and I really have no problem with that.

It looks like the official genre for this type of music is: Eurodance. And this is perfectly fitting. I wouldn’t have been surprised to hear this kind of song when I was vising dance clubs in Rome or Vienna or even Amsterdam back in the day. Well, maybe not Amsterdam, the clubs I went to there were a little heavier and grimier.

I love, “I Don’t Wanna Loose You” by DJ Layla and I think Alissa does a great job with the vocals. She has great tone and the way she shapes her vowels and sings with such a relaxed sensuality is extremely pleasing to the ear. I love the readers of overidon.com and so I’m going to share the video with you here…courtesy of the DJ Layla official YouTube Channel.
