Great to see OCR get some Orchestra lovin'. Seems that DJP thought that it was time OCR had some too (with a direct post). And it's from a PC game, which is even better! And everybody loves the asian themed music. Well, at least I do.

Not familiar with the source, but it was a lush and rewarding listening experience. Kudos to you Mr. Soong, and may you have more to do with OCR in the future.

Absolutely brilliant; excellent job. I have nothing but praise for this piece, but unfortunately breakfast has the tendency to adversely affect both my verbosity and my full appreciation for the subtle nuances of music arrangement, so I'll just leave it at this for now: great job!

A beautiful and epic remix throughout. Great work! It even got a few chills out of me.

I liked the drums and percussion. The brass and strings were a little thin, and not much reverb which it needed. Some attacks weren't accented enough IMO but other than that I'd say nice job.

I'll admit that I'm a bit of a sucker for orchestral remix, and this just really got to me. Love how it was Asian-inspired, as it adds a whole different dynamic to the piece.

Great work Ceracryst!

Shaolin Soccer! Haha the beginning of this piece with the bass drum reminded me of it so much harmonically and instrumentally. This is epic!

Agree with Derek pretty much all the way. I flagged it for DP, but I definitely noticed the realism issues; something to work on for the future, but in this case, the arrangement managed to rise above that. Glad to see Kenny back in the game and no longer an OCR 1-hit wonder.
