Powerhouse combination of artists here. This is more a series of remixes than it is one remix (but I ain't complaining) and each section is drastically different from the previous. Hot stuff all the way through. Great work, guys.

I heard this on VGMix a while ago and I really, really liked it. AWESOME guitar work at 4:40.

This is one hot track here. If you're going to collaborate, you might as well raise your ambitions and this is what I see with this song. Exceptional job, guys.

This is quite the mix. It's great how many different elements are thrown together. The main problem with having so many different sections featuring different musicians is that there are little/no real transitions into each section. More developed/smooth and longer transitioning would make this better. There are some ok switches, and I do recognize that there is the limit of 6 mb...so under that constraint I would say this was still pulled off fairly well. Fun arranging, there are lots of interesting ideas. I only wish more sense could be made of the song as a whole.

Wow. That really rocked. So many different vibes from this song that would each be amazing on their own. That intro is really something to get excited about. I've been waiting for this to get posted for a while and I tried to guess what song it was a remix of. 'On The Day The World Changed', hmm. I thought of the Prophesy flight theme, or the Mana Beast fight theme but when 'I heard Into the Thick of It' as the intro (one of my favorite tunes from the game) I just had to smile. And it just kept rolling! That bass rocks!

I absolutely loved the third section; the remix of 'Mystic Invasion'. A jazz power-ballad to be proud of for sure. Beautiful piano, beautiful guitar. Someone should make an entire mix out of that section. But each section seriously jammed and multitudes of props to Marc-André Gingras for that jaw dropping guitar solo. In fact, props all around!

Thanks for putting yet another Seiken Densetsu title on the front page you all. Three at the same time! Someone needs to get a Secret of Mana project going :D

Default amazing

This song is incredible. I've been a fan of Dream Theater, Rush, and many other progressive rock bands since i can remember. This song is up there! Great mix, wonderful use of the melodic progressions the game has to offer. 114kb/s is a bit too low encoding for my taste. Personally, for a mix of this quality, i'd ask for lossless! But, alas, that may be asking too much. Anyways, congrats on the fantastic work guys!
