Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #3

Back to back Rick and Morty posts, a true testament that when I began categorizing this "genre" I was certainly consuming a lot of these R&M remixes. At #3 is RoyishGoodLooks' Mr Meeseeks remix, a song which stays at the top of my YouTube remix playlist and I often begin with because it's so darn catchy!

It's a weirdly happy sounding song despite the lyrics being dark. The harmonies are terrific and that key change at the end *chef's kiss*

It's a shame TikTok got a hold of it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #4

At #4 Human Music is a Rick and Morty remix created by Chetreo. When I was 17 and starting university, Rick and Morty began to take off in popularity. That's when I stumbled across
Chetreo's series of R&M remixes. Whereas
POGO does mainly Disney stuff Chetreo
made Rick and Morty his bread and butter
and this is where it all began.

The song does a great job encapsulating the entire feel of the show into the song. The
melody he's constructed has a very warm
feeling, so happy and almost reminiscent
sounding.

Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #5

TOP 5 TIME!

#5 is a remix created by John D. Boswell aka Melodysheep of the classic Terry Crews old spice ads. Boswell himself described it as an assault on the senses, but I believe it's far more chill than that.

On the surface, it may appear to be goofy remix featuring the shining product of the internet Terry Crews however it sounds fantastic and leaves you wanting more because it's so short. I especially like the chorus, and that combination of "power of music/Oh nooo" is so magnificent. 

This gives Terry a Mister Rogers vibe, and it becomes weirdly wholesome in a sense and makes me nostalgic for the older videos that you found on YouTube back when this was released seven years ago. 

Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #6

#6 was a tough choice; I had four potential
songs, all based on Lord of the Rings, but I
forced myself to only select one. The others
were relegated into the honourable mentions category.

At the end of it all, Chetreo's The Lord of the
Rings: The Return of the King remix beat out
the others. 

If you haven't seen or don't enjoy the trilogy,

this probably won't hit you the same way, but
there are lots of great lines in here for the
LOTR fans to reminisce about. Including but
not limited to: 

1) Billy Boyd's Pippin's Song

2) Gandalf's "Your father loves you, and Faramir"

3) Aragorn's "My friends you bow to no one." 

and many more!

Dyland's Top Twenty Remixes #7

#7 is a remix of Dreamworks Animations' The Road to El Dorado by Israeli-American artist Yoav Landau, better known online as The Living Tombstone. 

I first came across Landau in 2012 when he created "Tom's Dog", which is the theme for the 5th instalment of the popular web series, asdfmovie by TomSka. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and subsequentially used it on a couple of my projects, including my old vlog. I continued to follow him, and in 2014 he released this Road to El Dorado remix.

I can leave this remix on repeat and never grow tired of it; there have been many late nights with this on repeat in the background as I completed work or schoolwork. That "ONE MORE ROLL" line is just so contagious, and it is just one of the many classic lines from this movie included in this remix.
