This is awesome. There's several different sections that all expand on the original tune (which I really like) greatly, but don't really change the progression to where it's unrecognizable. The last section does sound very much like the original, but it seems appropriate after everything else that's gone on in the mix. The samples are great, the sequencing is stellar...not much else to say here. Outstanding work, aluminum!

A great piece, even moreso since I enjoyed it without even being familiar with the source piece. The Monty Python sound bites were a wonderful touch too, and well timed. I'm sure there's some out there that won't like it, and those will be the ones that haven't seen the movie. For the rest of us, this is a great remix, to me- a subdued techno piece that travels well into another genre, all while improving on the sound quality of FFVII. (God that game had some harsh MIDI...)

Took me a while to try and figure out the original piece... is it the fanfare played after winning battles? @_@
Whichever it is, aluminium has done a great job upon creating a remix based on a track that's under 30 seconds long without loops. :P And it seems that it's been built up as the piece went on, from the steady section at the start, to a hint of jazz near the middle, and as stated, the Monty Python clip. :) For those that are lacking a few brain cells (like me ), the last section - which sounds a lot like the original piece itself - will instantly get you familiarised with the original.
The instruments have been mixed together tightly, keeping things at a soothing pace and has shown as a pleasing sight to the ears. And the wide range of sounds and how they've been put together have also given him a good range of marks.

Overall, you've got great potential and an impressive start rookie. ^_^

It's funny how I take so few trips into the WIP forum, but almost everytime I do, I find a mix that eventually ends up on the site. Anyway, I loved this back when it was a WIP, and I'm glad to see it up. It's such a great little piece, with all the transitions and expansion of the source material. I still don't know why anyone would look at that tiny snippet (that eventually became annoying) at the end of battles and think "I could remix that" but aluminum pulled it off. With flying colors I might add.

hey I recognise a certain drumloop in there. I have that drumloop. Well made I have to say. Can't say I'm a fan of the jazz, but it fits.

I like the way he's got a groove feeling going to this piece, it certainly makes me move around a bit and shuffle my feet. I also remember this one as a WIP, I have the original on here. The only thing I think that could have made this better, would have been some reverb on that synth at the end. Otherwise it's great. I still think the beginning strayed a little far from the original, but if the judges didn't think so, then who am I to judge. ;)

Great work, looking forward to more from aluminum.

I had some difficulty figuring out just what song this was from the game...but I got it about half way through...I don't really like the audio clip from Monty Python...I just don't think it fit with the song...Good work on the rest of the song...

This remix was pretty cool. It seemed a bit staticky at times, but I'm not sure if that was an intentional sound or not. I loved the opening. I was just waiting for it to build to the tune and the drums to come in.

When it did, it was slower than I expected, but that was still pretty cool. It became somewhat jazzy after that, and was a fairly calm remix. It builds into a few different instruments, and nicely builds up to a climax with a piano, some organ, some synth, and Monty Python sounds effects - which I found comical, and enjoyable.

That could've either made or ruined the remix for someone else, though. Not a bad remix, but I had trouble keeping interest in it at points. The opening and builds are fantastic, but the regular tune, although nicely mixed, grows a little slow. I'm not a huge fan of that sort of thing, but for anyone who enjoys a somewhat ambient track, this should probably be on the playlist.

Yup i agree with Rexy, sounds like a good ol mix of the fanfare . It sounds kinda like part of the hearts anxiety (from ceracyst) but i dunno.

Good job. Hope to see more.

Workin on my own remiz but don't rilli have much time XD

[Broken Enigma]

the begining is kinda like sumtin creepin around the corner ready to spook you....but over all i thought it a very well done mix(even though i can't quite recall where in the game this was from)but hey?whose complaining?
