Overclocked ReMix: SOTC 'Wanderer on the Offensive (Live Edit)' by B33J, Cerrax, Sixto Sounds, yodaisbetter

Wow. I hate to say anything is "sick" - I think I've reached the point where I'm too old and uncool, and it might even be misconstrued as a literal assessment of health. Nevertheless, I'm making an exception: this mix is sick. Arranger Cerrax writes: "Here is a resubmission of my track "Wander On The Offensive" It has been completely reworked with live tracks and new drums. There was a lot of work put in by Sixto as well as yodaisbetter and B33J. I consider this song to be the largest I have worked on (on and off of OCR) and I am so glad to have this many talented individuals working on this mix. I really put a lot into this arrangement, and they really made it spring to life before my very ears."
Sixto handled guitars, drum sequencing, and mixing/mastering, with yodaisbetter on viola and B33J on bass guitar. Juan writes: "When I first heard the original remix Cerrax came up with, I already thought it was a pretty rockin' track, but I really wanted to add some live guitars. So I jumped at the chance when I saw that he was looking for someone to record them. I also decided to help with the drums since they were getting some negative feedback on the forums. Although I'm not a big fan of collaborations, I really enjoyed working on this track. Hope you guys enjoy it, too."
Not a big fan of collabs? Wonder if that's meant from a participation or listening perspective, or perhaps both; you certainly couldn't tell it just from looking, or rather, listening. yodaisbetter writes: "When I first heard the original of this mix I was quite impressed, it took two great songs from SotC and meshed them together into a pretty solid rock song, but it lacked in a few areas. The addition of the live recordings helped this song reach it's potential, and it turned out much better than I expected."
With B33J adding: "I had just began playing this game when the WIP by Cerrax was posted in the threads, so it immediately caught my attention. When the call went out for a bassist, I really wanted to contribute to the awesome power that Sixto had thrown together for the live edit WIP. Thanks to Cerrax and Sixto for allowing me the opportunity to contribute to such an incredible song and my first contribution to OCR."
This mix is an instant classic, so it's cool that it involved so many newcomers. The combination of solid rock, screaming guitars, viola, and a live bass all add up to a very good time, but Cerrax's arrangement is what brings these components together, and it does a great job of capitalizing on the strengths of having such an arsenal of talented musicians participating. It takes two source songs and combines them seamlessly - I honestly don't think you could tell there were multiple inputs simply from observing this output - and everything sits just right. Shariq says: "WHOA! Viola + rock = win. I love everything about this mix. Wonderfully mixed, wonderfully performed, and the arrangement just takes two great songs and integrates them seamlessly."

Shadow of the Colossus, released in Japan as Wander and the Colossus (ワンダと巨像, Wanda to Kyozō?), is a Japanese-developed action-adventure video game developed and published by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCEI) for the PlayStation 2. The game was released in North America and Japan in October 2005 and PAL territories in February 2006.[1] The game was created by SCEI's International Production Studio 1, the same development team responsible for the cult hit[2] Ico.[3]

The game focuses on a young man named Wander who must travel across a vast expanse on horseback and defeat sixteen beings, simply known as colossi,[4] to restore the life of a girl named Mono. The game is unusual within the action-adventure genre in that there are no towns or dungeons to explore, no characters with which to interact, and no enemies to defeat other than the colossi. Shadow of the Colossus has been described as a puzzle game, as each colossus' weakness must be identified and exploited before it can be defeated.

Shadow of the Colossus was well-received by the media and met with strong sales when released. The game's soundtrack was widely praised and referred to as one of its stronger aspects. It also won several awards for its audio, design, and overall quality.

    Did they also arrange other Soundtracks of SOTC?

  • @Omegamanuel To my knowledge, Sixto Sounds is the only one that's worked on more than one remix, the others came together just for this remix. It's one of a kind, but if you check ocremix . org then you could looks up all the works 'Sixto Sounds' worked on.
