I don't understand why there isn't more Atma around. It was just so powerfully evil and had so much drive. I really love this version in particular because you incorporated Atma theme in there. It's nice that you went and used stuff that isn't all that common but that is pretty vintage/classic material.
Your stuff is really amazingly good. The whole series you have going rocks!

This track is face paced and really quite amazing. There's enough diversity in it to make it really stand out. It's personally one of my fav tracks.
Some slower more tender moments followed by fast powerful tunage. It has it all. I think you did a wonderful job putting all these mixes together. Its sounds really great.

I can't help but wonder what this would sound like with a sound system that really cranks out some bass. I'm using these low end speakers and it just doesn't feel like they do the song justice. You're supposed to 'feel' bass like this!
I like how it starts out pretty hardcore and then there's a break with the soft piano, to kind of let us catch our breath, be it from bouncing off the walls or just after your first impression of it. Wait, did I really just hear this or was I dreaming? Then the 2nd part kicks in. Lots of energy coming out of this. Really awesome!
Keep up the great work! If its your first time making this kind of song, I can only imagine (but fear?) your next submissions of this genre. Thanks for making such a great song btw

Ok, ParagonX9's 8bit ownage track was pretty awesome. Words fail it. A punk remix of it you say? Sounding this great? Now that's just absurd. The whole track was pure greatness and I loved the 8-bit fading at the end. Made it sound like a tribute but also wasn't randomly out of place.
Words fail the 8bit version, words fail this version.
Great work!

"Great concept, great song"
This song is pretty original. The mix of the 2 really worked well together and you didn't just stick to the original songs you actually changed it up quite a bit. I think the only part that I thought was off was how the ending where both overlap. The Song of Storms high pitch merges with the Kirby high pitch at some point and you lose track of both of them for an instant. Not sure if it's from my cheap audio setup. Aside from that, you did a good job differentiating both tracks at the end despite this...likely not an easy thing to do.

If I didn't know where this song came from, I'd still be thinking this is one nice piece of jazz/ambient music. The piano and sax sound really nice. Though it's DK music, it feels like a totally different song. I think you did a good job of making this sound like a brand new song and putting your personal touches on it.
Really nice work!

The first part really starts kicking in at 30 seconds or so. Its slow at first but the instruments gradually come into play. The buildup to that moment is beautiful. Even better is the buildup at 1:40 where the song picks up and really starts into a fierce rhythm.
I loved this song in the Chrono Trigger. I always felt it was underrated. It was a powerful song despite its calm soothing tones. That's what I loved about it. Your version features a crescendo of power which I think really suits the theme of the original but it's not too over the top either. The ending seems right as well. Not sure if fading would go well with all the buildup.
Well done!

Wow, not the kind of song you expect to hear especially coming from FF5 which is a fairly underplayed game. Although when you think about it, the original is a pretty cool track. Now with the choirish thing going on, the songs seems to have more impact, more importance and a lot more depth, not to mention a kind of creepy/evil feel. I'd say that's appropriate considering the situations in which it was played in game.
Great job on this!

This is a powerful remix of an already great song. FF7 had such a good soundtrack but it was so low tech. This is a great modern version of a classic that doesn't disappoint. This is the best version of that track too.
Keep up the great work!
