  1. The Bounty of a Brain

  Hero: Samus Aran

  Game: Super Metroid

  Originals: "Opening ~ Destruction of the Space Colony", "Theme of Samus Aran - Galactic
  Warrior"

  Original Composers: Minako Hamano, Kenji Yamamoto

  Artist: Big Giant Circles

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I''m a big fan of Samus, and of the Metroid series in general. I''m also a fan
  of Mazedude, so naturally when he challenged me to remix her theme against Mother
  Brain''s, I was thrilled to pick up the gauntlet (see: armcannon). I admit, it''s
  a bit intimidating going up against Chris. Not only has he achieved a sort of legendary
  status by the sheer number (and quality) of posted ReMixes on OCR, but he''s always
  been the sort of guy to really challenge himself to do new and interesting things
  creatively. Fortunately for me, Samus has what I consider a pretty powerful anthem
  or two which I could fall back on. I can''t deny that I drew a bit of inspiration
  from Vigilante''s "So It Begins..." (from Relics of the Chozo), but growing up in
  the 80''s/90''s also made it hard for me to not associate such a powerful theme
  with a lead guitar.

  As for the two themes, I realize there may be a slight discrepancy between what
  Samus''s theme actually is, since one is technically just cinematic music for the
  introduction of Super Metroid, and the other is primarily just Crateria''s alternate
  theme.  But both are present in my mind when really trying to identify with Samus''s
  Heroic status. One, in the sense that it''s a great backdrop for retelling her story,
  and the other because it''s there after you acquire the hyper beam and defeat MoBrain
  once and for all (that we know of, anyway) All in all, I had a blast working on
  it, I hope it comes across as cinematic and triumphant (with just a little bit of
  ominous foreshadowing) and I think Mazedude''s own remix is a perfect and awesome
  counterpoint to it in every way."

  2. Dieselbrainage

  Villain: Mother Brain

  Game: Super Metroid

  Original: "Mother Brain"

  Cameos: "Opening ~ Destruction of the Space Colony", "Tourian"

  Original Composer: Minako Hamano

  Artist: Mazedude

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I knew I wanted to tackle the Mother Brain theme since the initial conception of
  this project. It''s a theme I''ve always had ''on the brain,'' so to speak, considering
  the unusual use of the 7/4 time signature for a boss theme. When it came time to
  remix that, I had a blast taking the odd time signature motif and applying it to
  the drum ''n bass genre, one that you hardly ever hear in 7/4. The end result was
  challenging, but a lot of fun, and I''m quite proud of the result.

  The title is a nod to Dieselboy, a drum ''n bass artist who I listened to a lot
  while developing this track. Nods also go to RS3; thanks for the samples and inspiration."

  Monkey Island

  3. Pirate Shout

  Hero: Guybrush Threepwood

  Games: The Secret of Monkey Island, The Curse of Monkey Island

  Originals: "Opening Theme", "A Pirate I Was Meant to Be"

  Original Composers: Michael Land, Andy Newell, Barney Jones, Patric Mundy

  Artist: audio fidelity ~ arrangement, guitar, bass, drum programming, vocals

  Guest Performers:

  Eric Griffin ~ recorder, vocals

  Derek Meler ~ vocals

  Marcus Affeldt ~ vocals

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This track started out as an idea for a collab with OA and Abadoss where we came
  up with the idea of going for a rock-inspired Caribbean pirate track. The idea was
  to be heavy and melodic, and fragment the ideas from the original into something
  more cohesive for the genre. OA and Abadoss quickly fell off the track and I got
  the help of good friends to contribute recorder and a men''s pirate chorus. The
  lyrics are taken verbatim from a musical scene in the game. The track is meant to
  be fun and Heroic but still metal. I hope you enjoy this re-envisioning of a true
  video game classic."

  ~ audio fidelity

  4. Voodoo, Roots ''n Grog

  Villain: Lechuck

  Game: The Secret of Monkey Island

  Originals: "LeChuck''s Theme", "Opening Theme"

  Cameo: "Sagat Stage" from Street Fighter II: The World Warrior

  Original Composers: Michael Land, Andy Newell, Barney Jones, Patric Mundy, Isao
  Abe

  Artist(s): Diggi Dis

  Guest Performer: Alex Jones ~ trombone

  ReMixer Comments:

  "When I started working on this track, I didn''t have a clear vision of which direction
  I wanted to take this song. After about 4 or 5 different takes on the song, the
  track started to form itself.

  When I showed it to audio fidelity, he kindly offered me to have Alex Jones play
  the lead trombone. He deserves major credit, because without him, I don''t think
  it would have sounded half as good. I had a lot of fun doing a somewhat different
  genre than I usually tend to do and really hope you guys will like it."

  ~ Diggi Dis

  God of War

  5. Born of Ashes, Baptized in Blood

  Hero: Kratos

  Game: God of War

  Originals: "The Vengeful Spartan", "Zeus'' Wrath Divine"

  Original Composers: Cris Velasco, Gerard K. Marino

  Artist: Brandon Strader

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I signed on for Heroes vs. Villains, and the God of War source in particular, because
  I was up for a challenge. For the longest time, I didn''t think I could do it. The
  original idea was for metal with heavy backing orchestration. I wanted to make something
  that sounded like it should have been on the God of War: Blood and Metal EP. Whereas
  that EP was more of a collection of random songs by metal bands, this is much more
  true to the game''s feel, I think. This remix changed the way I approach remixing
  as a whole. I used YouTube as a reference to hear my source, and I worked a tiny
  bit at a time with each instrument until I was able to comprehend the source and
  put it in a metal context.

  Long story short, it was hard, and it took a really long time. I usually work with
  songs I''m familiar with, and do most of the work from memory. I couldn''t do that
  this time."

  ~ Brandon Strader

  6. Wrath Industrial

  Villain: Zeus

  Game: God of War

  Original: "Zeus'' Wrath Divine"

  Original Composer: Cris Velasco

  Artist: Kunal Majmudar

  ReMixer Comments:

  "When I was issued the challenge to take on the famous God of War themes (Kratos
  and Zeus), I knew I was fighting with fire. Gerard Marino, Cris Velasco and co.
  did an amazing job creating a rich, strong, but nuanced score. "Wrath Divine" was
  a tough challenge to take on and it took me a few different tries before I landed
  on a direction that I liked. I decided to take those ancient melodies used to battle
  Zeus and make them as industrial as possible. The result is a hybrid form that pulls
  from many influences.

  I think Brandon did a fantastic job with the legendary Kratos theme! Mine ended
  up being less "metal" than I had intended, but I think ended up being a fun mix
  in the end."

  ~ Kunal Majmudar

  Streets of Rage

  7. Bare Knuckle Blitz

  Hero: Axel

  Game: Streets of Rage, Streets of Rage 2

  Originals: "Fighting in the Street", "Go Straight"

  Original Composer: Yuzo Koshiro

  Artist: WillRock

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I''ve been a big Streets of Rage fan for a while now, and with this remix, I wanted
  to capture the aggression of the original source tunes and the essence of the games
  overall, and as a result, this mix is quite hard hitting. Fun fact: The weird pitch-bending
  synth breakdown was done completely by accident, but it sounded really cool so I
  kept it in. ;)"

  ~ WillRock

  8. Mr. Z

  Villain: Mr. X

  Game: Streets of Rage

  Original: "Big Boss",

  Original Composer: Yuzo Koshiro

  Artist: zyko

  ReMixer Comments:

  "Streets of Rage music is some of the coolest stuff out there. Some of its most
  popular remixes are also amongst my favorite game remixes to begin with, so I was
  really excited to take a stab at Mr. X''s theme. The source always struck me as
  a booming Latin club track... something that would shake a party down in some sweaty
  South Beach club. Whether I was able to execute that while musing on kicking Axel''s
  ass up and down the block, I dunno. But let''s face it, Mr. X is a badass."

  Mega Man

  9. Screw Wily, I''m Taking a Vacation

  Hero: Mega Man

  Games: Mega Man 2, Mega Man 9

  Originals: Title, Title

  Artist: Mattias Häggström Gerdt

  ReMixer Comments:

  "Mega Man''s been going strong for quite a few years now, hasn''t he? It''s about
  time he took it easy and relaxed so I arranged two iconic Mega Man themes into a
  laid-back, groove infused, smooth jazzy track. Something Mega Man could put on his
  M(ega)P3 player and be all ''Fuck Wily, I''m Taking a Vacation''."

  ~ Mattias Häggström Gerdt

  10. Screw Mega Man, I''m Taking Over the World

  Villain: Dr. Wily

  Game: Mega Man 4, Mega Man 2

  Original: Wily Stage 2, Wily Stage 1

  Artist: Joshua Morse

  ReMixer Comments:

  "Easily ranking in my top 5 favorite Wily themes, I''ve always wanted to give this
  one a go. Of course, it wouldn''t be Wily with a little Mega Mega 2 Wily sprinkled
  in here and there."

  Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

  11. Go Ninja, Go

  Heroes: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

  Game: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

  Original: Titles

  Artist: bLiNd

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This is a remix to the title screen from the first TMNT game on the NES.  It''s
  not quite the Turtles theme, but it does have a little bit of the melody in the
  main riff (the first few notes at least), and in the remix I hint to the Turtles
  theme here and there.  I wanted to give the original track''s energy justice with
  the remix, which I believe I accomplished.  I also originally wanted Danimal to
  play the guitar parts, but he got busy travelling and it wasn''t able to happen,
  so I faked it with samples.

  This track seemed hard to complete, as I scrapped 2 ideas before coming up with
  this.  It seemed to work well as drum and bass with heavy guitar leads doing the
  riffs and melodies so that is how I kept it.  To keep it fresh I ended it with some
  hiphopish dub bass like melow beats.  I wanted to add some vocal sample of splinter
  from the second movie, ended up not, but maybe if I ever perform it I will drop
  that in the set..."

  12. Enter the Shredder

  Villain: Shredder

  Game: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time

  Original: Super Shredder

  Artist: Danimal Cannon

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This song rose from a bit of a friendly rivalry (in the spirit of OCR vs The Bad
  Dudes) between myself and bLiNd.  He didn''t want the Super Shredder theme to be
  done in a generic metal style, so I purposefully incorporated some electronic elements
  into a mish mash of industrial metal and dance grooves.  I had to throw in a mega
  guitar solo, this IS a song about the SHREDDER.   The vocal sample was provided
  by the lovely Kimber Bennet."

  The Legend of Zelda

  13. He Ain''t a G

  Hero: Link

  Games: The Legend of Zelda, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

  Originals: Overworld, Title

  Artists: José the Bronx Rican feat. zyko

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I backed myself into this project because I''m the one who came up with the idea
  of a ''battle rap'' for one of these Hero-Villain matchups, which ended up being
  Link vs. Ganon. Weed suggested each of us contribute a verse for each other''s tracks,
  and I agreed. Link is, of course, identified with the classic ''Overworld'' melody
  which appears in several tunes throughout the series, and I decided on elements
  from the Link to the Past ''Overworld'' BGM and from the original Legend of Zelda''s
  ''Title'' track, making the resulting beat as ''hard like a criminal'' as possible.
  Lyrics, naturally, are full of hollabacks to the games, and to Shael Riley (!).
  Many thanks to Diggi Dis for the final mix."

  ~ José the Bronx Rican

  14. Bladewalker

  Villain: Ganon

  Game: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

  Original: Ganon''s Theme

  Artist: zyko feat. José the Bronx Rican

  ReMixer Comments:

  "Realizing I could be any Villain I wanted to be for this project, my first choice
  naturally was Ganon; so when the prospects for a rap battle between José and myself
  surfaced, I couldn''t pass it up. Like most of my work, ''Bladewalker'' is telling
  a story and is not really a "battle track" in the traditional hip hop sense. I''m
  not so much throwin'' punches at José (Link) as I am waxing poetic on my (Ganon''s)
  cruelty and evil. Of course, I had a bit of fun with sound bytes from the Hero of
  Time Zelda fan film."

  15. Satsui no Koto

  Hero: Ryu

  Game: Street Fighter II: The World Warrior

  Original: Ryu Stage

  Artists: zircon, Joshua Morse

  ReMixer Comments:

  "I owe Joshua Morse for helping me get started on this mix; he might have been the
  ''Villain'' of the matchup, but he laid down the slick chord progression that laid
  the foundation for the rest of the mix! I modeled the style of this track after
  the jazz fusion group Hiroshima, who uses a blend of electronic drums, synths, traditional
  jazz instruments and the koto, a classical instrument of Japan. At the time I was
  working on this mix, I had just finished a koto, shamisen and bass koto sample library
  (''Koto Nation'') so I decided to put them to good use as lead instruments here.
  I might have gotten a little carried away with the solos here but overall I''m really
  happy with the blend of traditional and modern sounds, which I also think fits Ryu
  as a character. Enjoy!"

  17. The Life and Death of Kirby

  Hero: Kirby

  Game: Super Smash Bros.

  Original: Kirby''s Theme

  Artist: Insert Rupee

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This remix is... decidedly different from our previous collaborations. Our goal
  was to choose a ''definitive'' Kirby theme, which are almost always happy and bouncy,
  and give it a darker more aggressive feel... considering the nature of the project,
  it seemed fitting to kind of evoke the sense that Kirby was saying ''put up or shut
  up'' or, you know, showing his darker and drug-addicted side. We''re both really
  proud of the final product, and it should be noted that Ben was only able to write
  the ending and finish the remix with the aid of a dangerous amount of alcohol. Enjoy,
  bitches!"

  18. Hot Air Penguin

  Villain: King Dedede

  Game: Kirby Super Star

  Original: Dedede''s Theme

  Artist: Mazedude

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This one went through quite a bit of evolution. My first pass was a Miles Davis-esque
  jazz thing... which didn''t quite work, so then I decided to do a genre I''ve rarely
  tackled: jungle jazz. And, it worked! Making it piano-centric was a strong point
  from the get-go (and I thank Bladiator for his input), and then the introduction
  of the trombone was something else I hadn''t done in a long while. Yes, that''s
  me playing... pretty rusty, I know.

  That, and the mix by Insert Rupee inspired me to get some 8-bit goodness going on
  there too, so... all in all it may be a tad bit messy, but still tons of fun in
  a chaotic way. I''m also a fan of the Kirby games, so the nostalgia there added
  to the experience. :)"

  Villain: Dracula

  Games: Castlevania, Castlevania 2, Castlevania 3

  Original: Boss BGM, Dracula''s Castle, Dracula Battle, Clockwork

  Artist: Ailsean

  ReMixer Comments:

  "This arrangement is comprised of several scenes.  Here''s the rundown:

  Death steps easily from the ship to the dock and makes his way up the boardwalk.  He
  moves with deliberation.  One second, one step. There is no need to hurry.

  Centuries of steps and seconds have passed before.  Centuries more will pass before
  him. He climbs the steps to the street above and turns the corner, passing from
  view...

  A swarm of the little, deformed men surround your legs!  Jumping, biting, catching,
  they do not relent.  You leap away and gain enough ground to catch a few of them
  with your whip.  The rest scatter.  You flee up the narrow stairs and leap across
  a gap in the block path. Something wet slams into your back, knocking you back down
  to face the little deformed men again.  Turning as you fall, you see a flash of
  snakes and wonder what''s keeping the severed head aloft as it passes by.  This
  is going to be a long night...

  The doors to the grand hall swing open easily.  Death sits at the end of the cavernous
  space.  He looks over you, judging as a spider would judge the flies in its web,
  deciding which is the most ripe and tender.  He laughs.  A dozen skeletons burst
  from the ground between you and Death!  It appears you are not ripe and tender enough
  for him yet...

  You have reached Death.  He sits patiently in his chair.  Your whip is around his
  throat before you are aware your arm has moved.  But it uncoils and falls from your
  hand.  It erupts into flames and is ash before it reaches the floor.  When you look
  up, his eyes are an inch from yours.  He places his hand on your shoulder and you
  feel the life leaving you...

  You hover above yourself, watching your body crumple and fall before Death''s feet.  As
  you rise higher, you see him kneel over your corpse and begin to feed.  You rise
  higher, floating through the gears and machinery of the castle clock tower.  You
  continue upwards, floating into the void...

  PS - the repeating minor third vocal part is inspired by the first three notes of
  the chorus an old Appalachian folk song called ''Oh Death.'' There''s an awesome
  Ralph Stanley version of it on the O Brother Where Art Thou OST, and Jen Titus did
  a great version for Supernatural.  The Dock Boggs version will give you nightmares.  For
  real.  Hellhounds on your trail and stuff."
