OverClocked ReMix...

Xenogears 'Chu Chu's Flight'

This is pretty good. Aside from the intro and ending, it follows the Xenogears flight theme rather closely. I personally whould liked to have heard a bit more variation from that oh-so-familiar theme. Pizzacato strings and choirs were a nice touch. And even though it may have been able to use a little more variation, it's always nice to have another version of my favorite airship theme :D.

In a word - epic. I loved the mix, not in the least because I'm playing Xenogears now. I love to hear good orchestral remixes and this certainly fits the bill. I won't go into detail about the song, just listen to it. It stays true to the original theme, but adds so much more. On my rating scale of "A" to "F", this one gets a 10.

One of the first things I looked for on this site were purely instrumental beauties such as this one. So of course this has become one of my absolute favorites, especially since its so well done.

At first listen I was kinda turned off by the intro, but then I realized how well it built into the rest of the song. When the piano came in thats what really made me keep listening. Then, as djp noted, the percussion, which I especially like, comes in as one of the major highlights of this piece. A good job indeed.

A note before I give my review. I haven't played Xenogears, or have heard much of the original track. Heh I need to play that one of these days.

This is by far one of my favorites on OC. The intro was a bit random, but it was a nice touch to the overall effect of the piece. Once the piece truely got started it took off, and it didnt stop at all. I get goosebumps when I hear it ^_^. I actually like the entire piece, and I don't see many flaws. The ending is great I think. The tempo just instantly drops, and then the music softly plays, which in my opinion is a nice touch ^_^.

I give this one a 10 out of 10 ^_^

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I must say that it certainly does more than justice to one of Mitsuda's best works. One of my most favorite pieces on the site. Excellent work here, Jared.

WOW

That about sums it up.

10/10, 10.5/10 is more like it

Ok, well I had written a longer and probably more detailed review last night, but I accidentally clicked a link somone gave me and it deleted what I had written. Here it goes again:

I can't understand what nitpick DJP has with the choir in this song, for me, it makes the song. But perhaps he was just correct in saying that I would get so caught up in it that I could care less. The choir patch, along with just about every other sond in here, seems to be explosively vomitting realism. Well, maybe not THAT much, but for the most part this sounds like a real orchestra. It makes my hair stand on end, its so good. The only pick I have is that the strings at the end are obviously fake because you can nearly hear the end of the sample. Download it.
