Wow, this is beautiful. It keeps it's energy throughout the entire song, which I love, it transitions well, my only gripe is the end is a little too quick, but I think thats just personal preference.

Keep em coming, our favorite vampire hunter!

I love this piece! Very easy to listen to. Excellent detailing. A quality song that's going onto the play list. I'm looking forward to more.

It's about time there's a Threads of Fate remix. And an orchestral one to boot. Instrumental-wise, it's brilliant. But personally, I just didn't dig the mood from the second and third minutes. But that's just my opinion. Some other parts of the song somehow sounded as if it's from Brave Fencer Musashi and KH. Although that's no bad thing. :D

Not since Chrono Symphonic have I heard an orchestral ReMix of this quality, not to mention it's a freakin' medley! It's extremely awesome, I especially love the nice brassy sections. It's very well written and I commend thee!

Started off a bit slow, but got really good towards the end. Overall, this definitely gets a thumbs up :D

Do you think he meant at 2:38?

All his songs are like that. Actually, in terms of epicness, things always start out medium, then get slow, then always finish big.

The only problem is, most of his songs on his site are no longer available. I was lucky to get most of them from a mirror site, but then that got booted offline. I actually think that this song was on there, but I was not able to download it then.

In any case, Vampire Hunter Dan is an incredible musician. You are among my top favorites.

Good stuff. This really stands out because the horn samples sound natural. I would have liked to hear some more tempo change. Also, I suggest for fun that you explore french horn/clarinet combos, might be useful in the future for your style ^_^ EDIT: Also, might I suggest giving the PSX's Final Fantasy Tactics soundtrack a listen? ^_^

Just played through this game on PSP, really excellent game. I loved the music so I came here to check... and see - the first ever remix was just uploaded!

This is a great remix, orchestration fits the music nicely. Kind of slow in the start and in overall, but the last memorable tunes totally make up for it.

Great work!
