Oh god, I really hope this wasn't submitted in 1999... Ya never know with this panel :P

Dangerous intro.

Ok, nothing is happening here. I don't even recognize the lavos theme here. The beat isn't changing. Its pretty repetitive.

That lone guitar really doesn't work.
Those short lived strings don't help the guitar out at all.

This is far too minimalistic. New chords don't work.

This mix feels very dead now. Doesn't do the great original justice by a long shot.

NO

Intro sounds sinister. Gets repetitive in the first half. Hmmm...the guitars and strings sound wrong with the song and each other, and there's not much else going on while they're playing either. This mix doesn't really sound finished to be honest.

NO

Seeing those two no votes makes me very sad when I hear how cool the
intro to this one sounds.

But suddenly all that neat tension falls away and it's a tired sounding
drum loop and some sort of stringy lead instrument.

If the lead is going to wander around a melody alone, then the drums are
too loud, and if the drums are suppose to overpower some sort of
background harmony noise, i'd like to hear the drums really do something.

When the frightfully sustained guitar comes in, I'm not really sure what
the artist is trying to do. I suppose there's suppose to be some sort
of sense of 'isolation' or lonliness with the theme of death and all, but
the quality of the samples is really overriding my ability to get sucked into
it. maybe with something to draw out the suspense, or a softer edge to that
plucky guitar sampleset it might work, but right now I just don't feel it.

Again, by the time the ending comes around, the crashing drum hits
and (a little too sharp sounding) strings make a neat atmosphere that
I really would have loved to heard developed in the main part of the
track itself, but for now, I'm just left wondering what I was suppose to be
listening to.

NO

well cotmm was on the dot with his review, the loud drums overbearing strange fragments of a melody... it just doesn't work. it would take an amount of effort to make this track more boring than it already is. overall this does not sound like a complete thought, it needs to build more and do more. right now it sounds like you left a few tracks muted when you bounced it.
