Just brilliant. Another favorited Dhsu track.

One of my favorite remixes in Voices of the Lifestream. As I mentioned in my review, the piano solo really conveys a cinematic vibe compared to the original track. I can easily listen to this remix playing during a cut-scene.

Love the progression of the remix overall. Goes from mellow to complex to mellow again in smooth transitions.

Dhsu does music when he's not posting on the forums? Wicked!
Seriously though, this is a very moody remix. The thing I think you're doing best here David is making a piece that stays true to the original song AND the role it played in the actual game. The chord progression is, as many pointed out, great. I like the sparse nature of the arrangement and the playing is superb too, very dynamic.
A wonderful piece.

Piano is probably the best instrument to carry the mood of traveling through a wasteland. If you like piano give it a try.

Chillingly barren.
I admit I'm not really in the mood for something like this right now, but it;s so emotive that I can't help but take notice. Great piano sound, and I love the shimmering descending runs. A great mix that is only brought down by a few minor *minor* dissonant notes at 3:53 and 4:21.

Very nice piano work, I'm envious of your skill. ;_;

Wonderfully emotive. I love how both themes were incorporeated together, they work quite well, which I wasn't expecting.

Minimilistic, but with good reason. Really sets the tone of the 'desolate' feel. Great performance all around. Good job.

I don't think I've ever listened to a Dhsu production I didn't like, and of course this is no exception. Brooding, emotional, yet beautiful at the same time.
