Default OCR00426 - Final Fantasy VI 'La Locura del Kefka'

Final Fantasy 6 'La Locura del Kefka'

I like the trumpet sound in this mix, as a former trumpet player myself, trumpets tend to intrigue me. Another thing is there is such a wide array of instruments in this one, including a lot of 303 mixed with more contemporary instruments. The one thing that disappoints me with this one is the length, or rather, lack there of. I do wish it was a considerable amount longer. Regardless of the length, still an excellent piece, The Pancake Chef. I’d love to hear more like this.

I love this song. I can't get enough of it. Partly for one reason. The length. You listen to it, and then think, "It's over already?!" :::sighs:: Oh well. It's still really good. The most funnest ( :) ) aspect is all the cool little sounds that The Pancake Chef added in. You know, at 0:47 the Kefka laugh, and then at 1:06-1:15 the Kefka laughs and all the wierd "spinny" sounds. At least they sound "spinny" to me. 5/5 stars.

Hey, probably some people know about this link already but... this song got its own flash movie! www.mortisland.com click on movies, then Zombie. Not meaning to advertise or anything, but I think its cool when a song moves onto a music video, even if it is a video game remix, heh.

Default Great

Listening to this song, i can almost picture the effiminate supervilain kefka dancing away to the rhumba-ish beats of this odd contraption of sounds.

Although a bit short, this song still brings awesome goodness and shows just how much being unique can pay off. By mixing some very stylish beats, brass sounds, and latin style music, you can get something that sounds oddly amusing.

This song was featured in mortisland's very own ZOMBIES, wich is where i had first heard of OC REMIX, i adore this mix with a passion, the spin-off remix of kefka's odd laughter still makes me want to listen to it more !

Great mix from a great artist.

Yah it's short but it's ok, cause you can loop it and hear it again and again.

Default Just..wow.

This is easily the single best remix of the Kefka theme I have EVER heard. I'll admit, I heard it on Mortis's video before here (relax, you're in the credits!), but my opinion has been the same since teh first time..it's just TOO DAMN GOOD. Everything about this mix just plain SCREAMS perfection. The brass is surprisingly fitting, and the laugh effect just tops it off perfectly...and those BONGOS...*drool*

As some know, the Pancake Chef has had little musical training, and to make something like this here's what I have to say from a so-called "amateur".

Very nice! A blend of Latin trumpets, a nice hip-hop beat, great synthlines at the beginning and some perfect bongos to give the infamous Kefka a good happy feel to his theme song.

Two things I didn't like. The trumpet solo before the first laugh was waaaaaaaay too loud (I know it peaked in the monitors in my computer), and the panning of that hip-hop loop panned hard left was kind of irritating when I listened to it with headphones.

Other than that, very nice, very clean. Just change those two things and I'll re-download the song.

This was my first OCRemix, so I can't really comment in an unbiased manner. Well, actually it was my second, but this was the one that got me to OC. I love Mortisland!

The transition at 1:19 is so cool. Quality stuff here.
