Way, WAY too basic in the handling of the source material. Mostly just the opening measures of the source melody along with new percussion and that off-key wind instrument.

Things slowed down at 2:20, but this does nothing significantly interpretive with "Anxious Heart" itself. Even the switchup at 2:59 provides nothing but new ideas for the percussion and 0 for the handling of the source.

If you took those pads or whatever the hell they are out, you'd have 100% original material. The sudden ending at 4:22 was also a total copout and completely uncreative. Not bad; I could see FF fans getting into it, but what the hell does this do to the original theme but slap various beats under it?

NO

Don't like the percussion here, way too boomy (which by the way is the mainstay of this mix). This is pads, with some beats with an off-key flute underneath. Isn't much here to listen to at all. Virtually no ending.

NO

I agree with what has been said. I actually like the drums, it is way too strong/loud though. The questionable flute/flute pad composition is the biggest flaw here for me. The rest is a bit too simplistic with simple pads. Actually pretty nice and enjoyable, but this needs more work and more additions along with some of the fixing and polishing. I hope you go back to this, this has promise. NO

My main criticism has already been mentioned. While you add drums and the like, almost nothing is actually done with the original theme- if anything the original has been simplified and relegated to a background role.

It's enjoyable in its way, and some will likely really dig it. But it doesn't quite fit in with the site.

NO
