Y’know what, when I first saw the Chocolate Rain video I kinda just brushed it off and thought of it as a novelty. I mean, I respect Tay Zonday for having the balls to post his singing online and I did kinda like the melody of the keyboard but I stopped watching after, like, 30 seconds because it was just too repetitive. Also, the only instrument was his keyboard, but being that its been so popular on YouTube of course there were many remixes.
I found one of these remixes in the related section of a video of his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel and I have to say, I actually really like it :P
Actually, it really reminds me of the Cammy theme from Super Street Fighter 2 on the SNES. I just have a soft spot for bass-centric, slow, grooves like this. Begin Rant It makes sense that I love the whole idea of this, people doing their own remixes and re-interpretations of an original piece. It’s one of the reasons why I like trance and electronic music in general and I have to admit that 10% of my playlist back in High School consisted of OCRemix stuff(Mostly Chrono Trigger and Super Metroid remixes)
