When Jimmy offered me the opportunity to help on the track with some voice work, we initially had some sort of spoken word-style lyrics in mind, but I'm a lot happier with how the track turned out using the Yoshinori Kitase quote. The awesomeness of the effects was all Jimmy's doing, and made me sound like a million bucks.

Hopefully people appreciate the quote as well for the purpose of tying the arrangement even closer to the game and its creative direction. Original lyrics would have been cool, but I thought it was a great way to give Kitase a well-deserved tribute.

Having helped a lil' on the side with arrangement choices thanks to Jimmy asking me for feedback, it's certainly a nice honor to have a good hand in this one and become an official OC ReMixer in the process!

Larry Oji, a ReMixer? GTFO

Nah, this remix is killer. I love how it's practically all drums, like a million on top of each other. I can't imagine the work that must have went into making them all audible. Larry's part of it is awesome too, and it's neat how "big empty space" is followed by a... big empty space.

[SwordBreaker]

This track is extremely catchy...I cannot stress that enough. I've commented on this remix a couple of times in the VotL thread, and I can't help but sound like a broken motor here. My absolute favorite track of the album is this one, no offense to the other awesome remixes. The feel of the original is there and the track strays away when necessary, which is the perfect balance for a listener like me.

Two things surprised me about the remix; the guitars the vocoded vocals. The former is because I didn't expect it from BGC...very well done. The latter is something that I was "meh" about at first, but eventually grew on me. The vocals source material is definitely smart, the delivery gets very intense towards the end. And of course, the vocoded effects are done nicely.

Glad this was finally posted on OCR. Congrats on Larry's official debut and BGC's awesome work. Cheers.

Oh man def one of my favs from the project. The groove and Larry's sexy robot man voice are my favs. The song is fairly straight forward in it's delivery and this works to it's advantage IMO. I really enjoyed how layers upon layers of beats and harmonies kept on pushing the song forward. It really gave the song a strong sense energy. Awesome work dudes!

first post here on ocremix.. cuz of this song

love this remix.. there're always a host of remixes on the latest remix feeds that do FF VII's but this one definitely caught my (ear's) attention.

Definitely one of my favorites from VotL. Love 1:35 when the awesome run thingy comes in - really "kycks the adrenalyne" if you catch my drift. Then of course there's the words - pure awesomeness. Giving a thumbsup!

[evktalo]

Yes, this is an incredibly good track, one that I've kind of overlooked when I haven't been listening to VotL as a whole. Fantastic driving beats, great synths, guitar works well, and the vocoder break always sounded perfect to me. Now I paid attention to what it says and it's chillingly apt. (Extra intertextuality bonus points!) Sublime work overall, I'm gonna listen to this a lot more.

This would have been a bit better without the dialogue in the middle. The song itself is awesome, and definitely a keeper, but the bit about dying and all that really didn't need to be there. Also, while listening to that, I kept thinking it was Byte from Tron 2.0 Killer App. A great song overall, however. 9.5/10.

[Patrick Burns]

I think the words are great; they make the song much more meaningful and memorable. Larry is very articulate, and subtle manipulation of the stereo effect on his voice on the last sentence is awesome. The quote is great as well - the first time I heard it, I was pretty inspired.
