This song is the very definition of coolness. It's chill, relaxed, and takes something that I would normally find quite boring (Tifa's theme) and makes it enjoyable beyond belief.

I think this just might top Dragon Song as being not only the single greatest remix on this site, but the one of the greatest pieces of music -- remix or otherwise -- that I have ever heard.

What I love most about this track is that it carries so many different interlocking elements, yet still manages to feel spacious and chilled out.

The way this song is produced really sticks with me. It carries with it some kind of sense memory that's hard to describe: traces of better days, a carefree boyish grin, a beer with an old friend. I don't know if that makes any sense to anyone else, but that's what I have dialed in as I listen.

The drum sequencing and the crunchy organ sound are pretty damn good, and vig's cameo is everything I'd expect (in terms of quality). The only thing that doesn't sit well with me is that the cello sounds very much like a sample, whereas everything else is very convincing.

Other than that, this is all kinds of solid, and definitely one of the more memorable moments in the project. Be sure to check it out if you haven't already.

There's an out of place click sound at 0:12, almost like a metronome. It's also present in a few other places near the beginning of the mix, but it's nowhere near as offputting. It's also on the album version mp3 (haven't got the wav version, so I can't check if it's specifically an encoding issue). I don't think it's anything to cry too much about, but I figured I'd bring it to your attention.

Other than that, I felt it was a nice take on Tifa's theme.

This is one of my favorites from the set, I'm actually listening to it now (it's stuck on replay since I'm too busy reviewing all of these to change it, LOL). I'm not sure how to describe it, I'm very pleased that I can distinguish Tifa's theme from this quite well, and I like the speed, feel, and rhythm it has. Excellent work.

[RepressedChaos]

its an awesome piece, I laughed at the name at first because I thought it said, "Shirt skirts Shorter temper" lol

[ChloroPhil]

Tifa's theme was always one of my favorites on the soundtrack.

Its probably because of that that when it first came on I started to feel disappointed. But the rearrangement and personal touch aspects of mixes are what make ocr, right? As the song progressed and went on though I came to like it and appreciate it very much.

Good work guys. This whole album is awesome.

love the super sexy rhodes. i usually overlook dave's tracks when it comes to reviewing, mainly because of course, they're awesome, and i guess subconsciously i think it goes without saying. he's as talented musically as he is administratively.

this track is right up there with love/ice cap hurts (haha, i really do love both) insofar as the groove is concerned. i'm particular fond of the drum kit and the bass. dave's always had a knack for an energetic bassline, which unfortunately, few people pay particular attention to.

as for the guitar work, all i can really say is...






































MEH...








































and by "Meh" I mean, of course, it's aight...

















































and by aight, i mean, yeah, it's cool too. <3

As I continue to listen to all the tracks, the thing I've been impressed with most is the vast amount of originality spread out amongst all of them. This track is certainly no exception.

Unless I don't listen to enough remixes, I have to say I hardly, if ever, hear mixes likes this. Sometimes it feels rare when you get to hear a new remix that's both original sounding and cohesive. Variety seems to be the key word as the years pass on at OCR. Variety in musicianship, collaborative efforts, people involved, styles and the unique flavor each and every person brings to the table.

There's sweetness in this track. The rhodes is an especially smooth and tasty addition. I really wish I could hear this performed live. To be there and soak in the surroundings.

A cup of coffee and Short Skirts. That about sums up my morning, I'd say. Good stuff.
