Secret of Mana 'Whispering Prayers'

This one is much improved from VitF's first remix in that, though it's still short, it doesn't feel so, and seems more like a complete remix than the intro to one. Though there's nothing outstanding here, what there is is good enough that this remix is very enjoyable. Recommended.

Secret of mana music can be twisted practically into anything. Great stuff.

Pretty cool stuff. Nice, laid back, just a good mix. I loved the sound effects near the beginning and end. So short though =\

Indeed, this is originally a very sad track, but VotF have turned it into something more happier and mysterious. The arrangement itself is pretty good, but it sounds like if the intruments that's being used has been taken directly from the game, since they have the same SNES-ish feeling.
But I still like it, with some bells and flutes and some strings to make it more relaxing and smooth. The sounds of birds and monkeys screaming adds some natural effect to it.

A very nice arrangement.

Yeah I was def expected a very sad and emotional piece. This is somewhat chillout style. It's done out very nicely, good job on the recomposition and lil ambient additions.

I just wish it was done today with some of the sounds that are available today that weren't available back then. But still this a sweet song. The sounds that are used fit the piece well, kudos on the sound design. The lead synth for the melody still sounds pretty sweet and matches the emotion being displayed.

Pretty decent, that monkey sounds pissed!

Not terribly deviant from the original as far as additional sections, but there is a cool shift in tone for the song overall.
I like the piano in this, it is very evocative and mysterious.
The ending, however is really bad. It gets cut off so abruptly, i thought the mp3 was corrupted.

Source is definitely Kikuta, and this remix is a decent remix of it. Seeing how old it is, I'm pleasantly surprised. It's still listenable. :D A number of sound effects make it pretty atmospheric. The drums cheapen it a bit, at least in the intro, and I feel the end could have used those two minutes it'd take to set the notes to fade out rather than just pop off. But overall, it's not much worse than what's being approved today, at least not when listening through laptop speakers.

I like this mix, because while it remains pretty true to the original, it has a subtle shift in tone that I enjoy in it. It's nothing special, but it's still enjoyable to listen to.

Sound effects at the beginning are an interesting touch. The screaming monkey's a little weird in my book, though.

An ubrupt ending, but not as terribly bad as the other reviews make it seem. I don't have too much of a problem with it.

The animal sound effects in the beginning are great. The track has the same quality of tone present in Protricity's DKII mix, Forest Birdcussion. There seems to be little actually happening in the way of actual music but the feel of the slow percussion and the animal effects gives the mix a great feel, very enjoyable.

I like the sound effects in the background, really help to establish the nature theme which is so important in the game. The theme carries into the mix, which is serene and cool, if brief.
