What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix.

Soothing. Mysterious. Kalm. ;)

It has a nice flow created by the harp and the deep strings, almost hypnotic. I would have taken more advantage of that part, meaning I would have extended it. But it works perfectly as it is, you just want to listen to it again.

Agreeage. Calm, and whatnot. Mysterious and whatnot. Wonderful and whatnot. ;)

Nicely blended all the way around. Perfect dynamics. I think thats what makes it so immersive: The fact that its so well done. I find no fault whatsoever.

The mp3 encoder gets pissed off from the soaring strings, but thats not Russell's fault. Otherwise,

Bravo.

Final Fantasy VII is my favorite game of all time for many reasons.
One of those reasons, is this song, and the story it represents.
How 7 years ago ShinRa Energy and Power sent a troop of soldiers to the town of Nibelhiem to inspect the Makou reactor. This is the song that plays as Barrett, Tifa, Red XIII, and Aeris sit around listening to Cloud tell his story up in the hotel of calm. Russell Cox could not have picked a better, more emotional, more meaningful song to remix, and he couldn't have done a better job of arranging it if he was Uematsu himself.
Russell Cox. Man. Musician. Genius.

I start believing in my abilities as a mixer... and then I hear this... I realise that I have no chance at ever attaining that level of mastery over music...


This carries emotions fare beyond words... you actually feel the sadness, nostalgia, and sacrifice behind this song...

Thanks for the comments and praise everyone!

OMG! This was beautiful. Very cinematic if I must say and moved me to the point of tears, but instead I smilled: Should have been at the end of FFVII. Very nice, Rusell!

[Wintermute]

Simply breathtaking. This is exactly what I want my new album to sound like. Epic. Wow. All I have to say is Wow.

Man, I just wanted to say this is a great arrangement. I love the instruments and the overall quality. I really don't have any complaints with this one, but I LOVE the harp parts, and the occasional Horn parts and I think you should have incorperated more of those, because they were very nice to listen to.
