i loved the music and i think im gonna check out more by the artist since you said his style is orchastrated but only one problem, it seemed like the music just cut short, maybe there was a problem during the upload or something, or does it just die short like that cus it's Aerith's theme:p. lol sorry couldnt resist the corny joke but yeah, it seems like it was cut short or something.

heh nevermind, was listening to one of the other songs and it happened again, all i had to do was refresh my screen and problem solved >.< gonna listen again since i can hear the whole thing now

This is the finest piece of orchestration I've heard in months, by anyone. If I didn't know what I was listening to, I probably would have just assumed this was a real orchestra. Easily one of my favourites from the project. This source is so easy to destroy, but you just made it a whole lot better.

Best track in the album, in my opinion.

I enjoyed this one a lot, it's definitely one of my favorites. I liked the way that the notes in Aeris' theme were rushed at various speeds since it gave the song more originality when the original had already been replayed a million times over the past 10 years.

Sigh. Regardless of its technical merits, I can't understand how turning Aeris' theme into an upbeat waltz is a good use of the excellent source material. Granted, the waltz part of the song ends, at which point you're dragged through an orchestral tour de force of various combinations of instruments with nothing really holding it together, except perhaps Jeremy's desire to show off his artistic prowess. But to me, the abundance of meaningless transitions was a clear sign that this track had no real heart or soul. Without hesitation, I'd take MENBAH's Aeris Remix over this one.

But that's just me!

the only gripe i have is that jeremy used a metric crapload of reverb on this one, which gave it more of an amphitheater type sound vs. a studio or stage sound, but it's nothing that's going to keep me from enjoying this otherwise well-arranged piece.

fine work, dude.

Default Amazing...again.

I feel I will never create an orchestral piece that even comes close to this. Your pieces always seem so live.
