Much too similar to the source tune. Awkward reverb. Little balance.

Nothing really clicks with this piece. The arrangement progresses similarly to the original. A lot of your samples lack definition in the attacks. Very weak sounding woodwinds.

Try for an actual arrangement with some more creativity next time.

Pretty cool, but while a concept (and I stress the word 'concept') like this could make a Square arrange album, there's not much chance for it here when the arrangement is basically the original. The execution would have to be amazing for a viable genre conversion mix.

Bad clipping at 1:57/3:13/4:12; hell, clipping probably everywhere listening on an expensive setup. What is up with that off-key support starting in around 2:05? It clashes terribly with what else is going on. Yeah, not enough instrumental clickage or sound balance in here, like DarkeSword said, and the very ending is exposed MIDI goodness. Another GC/BE mix. Good concept...you can finish the rest.

NO

Not much of a re-arrangement here. I found the mix was not engaging, the amount of reverb used really put this in the background. Interesting low frequency bass textures though.

reverb makes it sounds like a bad recording job. bad clipping, bad mess of notes at 2:06. on the whole sounds muddy, and there's no arrangement.

NO
