Side-album of video game covers from former OC Remixer

Hello. I used to be around here as T.M. Revolutionary and on vgmix.com as Mich Zimmerman. I just finished a rather pretty ambient album and, in the process, created a side-album of video game covers using the same concept. They're not remixes (though I'm not sure what that even means, necessarily), but I thought there may be one or two people here who would appreciate them. You can download the album for free or stream it also for free at http://michzimmerman.bandcamp.com/album/big-lulls-bonus-tracks

Those familiar with my previous work will find it pretty much the exact opposite. It's extremely minimalist and uses dynamic just intonation tunings. I know how critical the response here can be and I expect no less. Please, feel free to say things hurtful both toward my work and myself as a person. If just one person finds enjoyment in what I've done, it will be worth as many arrows as can be flung.

Yeah, I was working on stuff with similar tunings and sine, sawtooth, and square waves, samples of guitar and bass, vocals, and drums, but I started focusing on the sine waves because they have the most pronounced difference between tunings, and I eventually ended up with a concept album based around pure, calm sine waves. It's supposed to be something of a dream.

As far as the switch to Maya, it means a lot of things to me. From the standpoint of making an artistic statement, Maya is the concept of reality's existence as an illusion in Hinduism (which fits the album's concept perfectly) and is a female name, which is fitting, given how gentle and passive the album is. From the standpoint of reality, Maya is the name I've been using here and there for the past two years as I've been struggling with my gender identity.
