VERY nice. I'm gonna have to listen to this baby a few times in a row, at least. This is definitely one of the top Chrono Cross Remixes, and that's sayin a LOT, since they're ALL good.

I would that the bass was more prominent. Its there, but cuts out too soon, not enough sustain. Kinda gives the guitar a hollow sound. Some parts seem awkward and messy. Kinda disappointed that I didn't get to hear any crazy ass zyko solos.
Other than that, very interesting piece. Over the top rearrangement and creativity. Very likeable.

I'm on my third hour of letting this run solo in the backround while I write, very nice. I like hearing power beginings which this has, and for some reason unlike many I am quite happy with faded endings. The best remix I have heard from the two - keep up the great work (you seem to work well with one another :P)

...that's quite a long time to listen to one song, isn't it?

(Not that I'm crapping on the song -- it is good stuff.)

I don't think I can be so positive about this one. Technically it's excellent and quite stylistic (I'm tempted to call the guitar clichéd and I know others would say the same about the synth bells) but it seems an odd marriage between the tense, shouting electric guitar and the soft ambient background. I can't say it particularly works for me. If these were two seperate tracks then I'd love them both. Put together like this they seem to be fighting for attention. It's an interesting project, to use these two contrasting styles but it's not a success for me, I'm afraid.

Nevertheless, it's great to finally see more people submitting stuff that's not generic techno. Keep it up :)
