endblink is a five letter word: HAPPY.

Wow. This mix KICKS ASS. And with a serious need for more Sega tunes around these parts, this mix is just what the doctor ordered.

What I like most about this ReMix is the FEEL of the piece. Right off the bat, I KNEW it was Phantasy Star 4. The game's music had it's own feel, it's own vibe, that set it apart from the rest of the Phantasy Stars... and I really felt that from this mix.

The wah guitar was amazing, and I love songs that use niffy voice samples. The opening one being especially sweet.

The only thing I might have changed is the ending. I didn't like the echo effect put on those strings. It was a nice sound that got kinda muddled.

Like guitars tracks? DOWNLOAD NOW! Like something different? DOWNLOAD NOW! Love Sega and Phantasy Star 4? And the reason you HAVEN'T download this ALREADY is????

I get drawn to all that is Phantasy Star like a moth to a flame...

Anyways, this remix is most definitely good. While I don't like the bassline that much, this remix makes me want to crack open a Vanilla Coke and remember the days when I was 8 or 9 years old and beating this game on rental...I recommend it.

Ah, yes! A Phantasy Star remix of any calibre is like nectar of the gods for me--I think the Phantasy Star series has the best game music ever, hands down. That said, I don't *LOVE* PS4 title theme (even though it is still great), but I do love what has been done with it in the remix. The guitar riffs are perfect for this song. They could have gone the more industrial way with this one, but the dark, moody metal guitar really suits this song. I agree with DJP that the drums could have been more apparent... I think this track would have ruled with some rockin' metal drums, something kind of frantic, fast and noisy, but it's still good as it is. I'm glad DJ Pretzel seems to like Phantasy Star as much as I do, insuring that he will post any good PS mix that comes his way... Keep 'em comin!!

Diggin this. Many interesting sounds are being used. You guys know how to use drums well and included a sweet guitar and cool solos. I love the ending. Awesome work!

WOW. 11/10. The ULTIMATE Remix. It doesn't get any better than this from what I've heard. Anyone trying to remix this song now should just stop. Now. You have no chance of doing better than this.


P.S. What was that weird noise in the background during certain parts of the song? I'm not referring to the voices or any of the electronic stuff.

P.S.S- Was that guy talking about acid reflux? Me confused.
