Go Go Go Caio!!!!!

Caio always makes enjoyable music. This is no exception.
Great production, great vibe and clever arrangement makes this a keeper. It keeps true to the original but in a way that enhances the feel of the orignal track, Costa del Sol. The electric piano soloing is amazing and the overall performance is very good.
Sure, this track doesn't really go places no track has gone before but it's a groovy, clean track that's great for relaxing. Sweet.

Cute opening, and fantastic clarity on the vibe production. Arrangement-wise, it's everything you'd expect from something of the genre. Understated drums with some bongos, upright bass, vibes, and rhodes, but subtle synth flourishes and some delicate string beds keep things sonically unique.
The rhodes solo was really nice, and the clarinet meldoy before it helped keep things fresh. This is definitely a location track; as in, you'd really want this playing at a nice resort while you were sipping your own umbrella drinks, but it works outside of that context as well due to the care taken to each song element. Super relaxing, and funky in a playful way.

Hojo is not going anywhere either, man. I mean, would you? =D

I was quite happy with this song, it's probably the most personal ReMix I have ever done. Even tough I have a fair share of songs on OCR, this one marks my first 4Yes post, which (hopefully) means that I am starting to gain some consistency as an arrenger (something that was lacking in works like my beloved "Brinstar Bonsai Garden"). However, this IS quite old (I have a Remix waiting to be posted that is actually OLDER), so it might be time to put something fresh on air.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone.

So true. Hojo's da man. I love that he wears his labcoat on the beach :3
anyway, back on topic, great remix go go go

I've actually been listening to this song a lot as of late, and am really glad it got posted. Recently I've been checking out Red Tailed Fox's work and I have to say, it's awesome. Very mellowed and chilled. Great track, looking forward to many, many more.

I really like Red Tailed Fox's music. It's always quite a bit of groovy. This piece, though not my favorite remix of his, is still awesomazing. Also I always end up humming along with the intro.

It's just so catchytastic!

This is one of the remixes I always go back to when I have Voices of the Lifestream on my MP3 player, The relaxed nature of it goes well with the setting of the original Final Fantasy 7's Costa Del Sol - as well as the real one! - lying back on the beach, lounging and instantly losing any stress you have the moment your first footprint is laid on the sand. It's very well done, and the instruments used really make the piece stand out in its setting.

Funny thing, that’s exactly the image I had when I wrote this. And incidentally, the name “Suco de Melancia” (Watermelon Juice) is not inspired by the juice at all, but by the color of my girlfriend’s hair (which was red, but not actually RED, more like Watermelon Juice Red, if that makes any sense) at the time. Whole song is inspired by our daily life.

Thanks again for the kind feedback everyone.

PS.: BGC, I also LOVE freshly squeezed Mango Juice. I try to mimic it sometimes but all I get is a strange yellow… thing.
