Introduction:
Weighing in at an astonishing and highly unnecessary 10MB, is this 7.5 minute goliath truly worth the time it took to collaborate? Find out…now!

Song Analysis:
Some sections of the song sound like “Beach Bunny!,” such as the third section around 3:24. Some sections sound original. Some other sections take from other Jazz Jackrabbit songs, such as “Diamondus”.
And then around 5:28, things really speed up to about 2.5 the song’s normal speed. Why? I don’t know. It doesn’t add a thing to the song.
Going back for a moment, the beginning of this song reminds me of some 80s music. Specifically “Rhythm of the Night” by Debarge. Kind’a fun memorabilia there, actually. Whether it was intentional or not, I’ll probably never know, but it sounds fairly good and helps make this song a bit of a walk away from being “Beach Bunny! Arranged”.
Unfortunately, that seems to be all this song really has going for it, other than the beat breakdowns which seperate the few sections of the song quite nicely.

Sample Analysis:
The original “Beach Bunny!” samples with some generic “dance drums” thrown in to give this mammoth some moves.

Final Analysis:
Well, I don’t know how long this seven-and-a-half piece of work took to make, but it sounds like some decent work went into it. Still, it’s pretty average, far larger than it needs to be(C’mon! Even Modules are only Internet MP3 quality! Was 192Kbps really necessary?), and druges on a bit, despite the attempts to keep it fresh all throughout.

Score: 4.8
“Man, I Feel Old Now” Points: -0.3
Total Score: 4.5

Recommendation?:
It’s kind of groovy, but listening to it more than once might not be a good idea. So…no.

Edit:
My math skills need work. Scoring fixed.

Reviewing time!

First of all, I didn’t like the slow start. It took about a minute and a half before the actual song began, which is something I don’t like. After listening to the same part over and over with a little drum variation each time, you get to the actual Beach Melody, which is nicely done with those Carribean steeldrums. The melody makes you wanna dance, as it’s supposed to. Nicely done, overall, untill I came to that… ‘interesting’ part in the middle. Although it was a bit too complicated to be “Farmboy’s Hardcore”, it came close. The beat is kicked in as if it was a special weapon trying to demolish everything in the nearby surroundings. Eventually, the horror stops, leaving us with the original melody. It slowly builds down and the outro is just as slow and the intro. Not my style.

Nonetheless, I have promised to give this a review, and so I will. Not my taste, not worth my time. I’m very sorry, guys, but this is just one piece of music from you that I don’t like.

Whoo! This rocks.

I recently listened to the medivo remix, and while it was a solid tune, it never really caught me. This beach/diamondus megamix did however. It’s very catchy, has awesome dance beats and I love the melody. Everything seems to fit perfectly this time, and the length is appropriate too.

Surely worth the download.

Thanks for review, LF and ratboy. (PA)

“Decent work” – giving a bad rating just because having different taste music than the author? What has the sociality…

Danyjel: Funny you be hippocritical yet again. You’re not going to change your genre, yet you expect others to. In your review of Aegis’ metal cover of Sluggion you said to replace the bass with an Electric Flute.

I don’t know how things are in A-hole land, but around here ELECTRIC FLUTE IS NOT METAL.
