I definately sensed SGX in this mix, if I didn't know better I would say it was a mix by him.

Never played or even seen Kingdom Hearts... But from this remix, I can assume the soundtrack isn't half bad. Or maybe it is, and the remix just kicks ace... Either way I'm happy i guess

All the little drum-FX rythms and rolls with the pumping bass add up into an amazing drum track throughout.

The piano was especially nice, and mixed flawlessy with the orcestra. Sound Quality superb. Nice and flowing feel good music.


EDIT: Crap Xyco! I wanted to be first. jerk.

Default Damn this is good!

Kingdom Hearts is a game that for many people, it was hard to believe that Square would actually team up with Disney. I Refused to play it for a bit after hearing about it. Now I cannot wait to get my hands on the 2 Sequels coming out.

I will say that it is a bout time that a remix was posted for this game. The music it Self really does not get the credit it has earned. To me, hollow Bastion had the Perfect dark, dismal, atmosphere that it was made to express, yet also gave an impression of Aw and wonder about the Area you were exploring.

Among the many things about this remix, the Shy percussion grabs me. I say it is shy due to the fact that you know it is there, but it does not over take the remix. The piano Work is Top notch.

The Ambiance adds the effect and the feeling almost of "You will lose your Soul in this place." The Strings work that was added gives the kind of a horror effect of sorts.

All in all, VERY well done, and I cannot wait to Here more!

When I first saw the picture for Kindom Hearts on the page I literally thought "Be still my beating heart!". I was a little apprehensive of DLing it at first, because I didn't want the first KH mix to be a let down. But my Fears were unfounded, because I really enjoyed this mix. it's very well arranged, and has a great feel to it.

the only criticism I have is that it sounds too Midi'ish (for lack of a better word). Had this been performed by a live orchestra, it would have sounded perfect.

all in all a great mix though. I'm glad KH is finally getting some of the massive ammount of attention it deserves.

In my book, when a remix is so amazing that you want to hear if the actual soundtrack is as good, that is a great remix, which this is. Though I haven't played Kingdom Hearts, I still loved the piano and percussion found in this remix. Hopefully we'll hear more of both Kingdom Hearts remixes and remixes from Sephfire in the near future.

Noice. Awesome mix. Wouldn't have spent time mastering it if I didn't like it :). Kinda wish I had the mastering experience I have now back when I did this. I could make it sound even sweeter than it is currently :).
