Introduction:
Ever feel like headbanging to the original Muckamok theme, but feel the tune is inappropriate to do so? Well, this tune is right up your alley, then!
Song Analysis:
Remember what I said about the original version, FOD? “This song would be freaking sweet with the right samples.” Well, guess what? I still think that holds true. This version is quite vastly different from your original “The Muckamok Rock”. Too different to compare, really. As the original version was rock, this version is somewhere between heavy metal and rock ‘n roll. However, the arrangement of this song is done up quite well. Nothing clashes and everything sounds great as far as I can tell. Except around 1:22.60(Pattern 16) where you inexplicably up the pitch on the guitars… Doesn’t sound that good. Additionally, the song is a bit repeatitive with no real “breakdowns” to it. A breakdown or two somewhere in there would not only prolong the life of the song, but make it sound all the more groovy, in my opinion.
Sample Analysis:
As stated, none of the samples clash, hiss, crackle, or sound bad at all. Your choice in samples is pretty nice. All the guitar samples are nice and crisp, as heavy guitar samples should be.
Final Analysis:
This is a slight step down…from the “original” version of “The Muckamok Rock,” in my opinion. Gone are the organs that made the first cut so absolutely awesome. Gone are the cut-off guitars. Gone is the arrangement…
Man… Listening to v1.0, I think I do prefer it to this one…but this one is pretty slick in and of itself, too.
Score: 5.0
“Arrangement” Points: -0.2
Total Score: 4.5
Recommendation?:
I’d recommend this, yes. It’s a neat, metal arrangement of Muckamok. But I’d also like to re-recommend the first version, too, which can be found here:
