I was originally a big fan of this piece while it was a WIP, though it was noticably synth at that point. I'm glad to see that the piece kept its generally frantic tempo with its calmer interludes. Overall, this is an excellent companion to the original that reminds me a bit of something that Noir might do, though the classical piano style definitely does not carry through the whole piece.
Props to Nex for an amazing display of skill on the keys; I wouldn't have imagined too many people would be able to keep up the frantic tempo in spots like those around 2:00 that came easily with the synth in lightwarmth's WIP. Excellent remix.

The piano maybe doesn't sound that good, but the arrangement more than makes up for this!

This is...wow. I'm always a fan of individuals who can do two things -- play the piano with a fast pace while maintaining a good sound/rhythym and interpret a song with many different instruments into a single piano solo.
This does both of them nicely, what starts off as a normal piece quickly changes into what sounds almost like a slightly jazzy rendition of the moonlight sonata (act 3). I have a deep respect for people who play the piano so well -- this is obviously a good demonstration of playing the piano that well.

This is quite awesome indeed. This is a style of piano I don't think I've ever heard before, mixing the rapid heart pounding driving sections in with the softer smoother gentler sections.
I have but one complaint, and that is that I had to turn my speakers up a considerable amount in order to hear this mix. A little bit of extra volume would have been welcome, and perhaps just the tiniest bit of extra fidelity. Other than that, I'm in love with this piece. It just does everything so well!

I have a little bit of criticism to add to the reviews on this pretty well done arrangement.
First of all, the piano has too much reverb, making many of the fast sections muddled together. Second, there isnt enough contrast between the melody and the counterparts/bass parts. The melody needs to be louder, and it seems that everything is mixed a little low, which makes it harder to distinguish the differences in volume. In comparison with the original, this does a pretty good job of taking it and transforming it into a piano piece, while keeping a consistent style. I think I actually prefer this piano arrangement over the original :P Nice job lightwarmth and Nex. Blue Edit: Something I forgot to add: the articulation sounds all the same to me...thats what you get using a keyboard and a piano sample but oh well
