Absolutely fantastic. It sounds like you've studyed orchestration and alot of Jeremy Soule's music. Keep up the good work! I'm not a huge fan of the lack of reverb though. Though I can agree it gives it a unique sound it makes it easier to distinguish VST's.

I like this one. Lots of progression building and counterpoint make this a feast for the ears. Very impressive use of samples, the brass especially. One note is the reverb issue.. for the size of the orchestra you are trying to convey, more reverb or convolution would have been a good choice. But overall very nice job.

Completely awesome- I love the source songs- all of them, and this is great stuff. Excellent expression, especially in your strings, I am so happy to hear this.

Highly recommended.

I love the sources; but what I found best is this mix didn't seem to stick to the sources. Rather the remix had it's own agenda and thought and the sources were merely used as building blocks to build upon this. Excellent stuff Dan; love to see Lufia get some bonified lovin!

Lack of reverb is unfortunate, but the arrangement is great. Good job.

Lack of reverb a problem? I find it more expressive this way, you hear the instruments better, their own tone and timbre.

How does one jump from playful to dramatic like is done so successfully here? Part of the time listening to this is spent just smiling at how rapidly it changes in mood, yet it all flows smoothly. Lovely might be a word well used to describe this. Impulsive might be another. I'm using both.
