Final Fantasy 6 'Cid in the Factory'

Before I write my review for this, I'd just like to say that by the time most people read this, I hope they are aware that this mix is NOT by Children of the Monkey Machine but by another artist who's just as talented who goes by the nick Gaffeizil. I would hazard a guess that this is why you see Gaffeizil in the title. It was supposed to be in the artist instead. If he hasn't already, our beloved DJ Pretzel will fix it. Don't bug him too much.

As for the remix, this is superb. Not everybodies cup of tea but it certainly does fill a void for me. I love these intense industrial sounds and insane sound acting dialogs. Gaffeizil certainly puts out an excellent, very hard core piece of music here. It makes my speakers tremble. Excellent work Gaffeizil.

Well, I've always been a fan of the Magitek Factory theme, even though I barely played FF6 (yeah yeah, so shoot me) and although I'm not the biggest industrial fan, I find that this mix doesn't journey too far in a direction that I dislike.
Hard metallic sounding percussion, very reminiscent of a factory, is a driving force behind this mix.

The bit at 1:50 is interesting as well, less hard and factory like, but still has it's own type of cool. "Kefka: trumpet, General Leo: drums."

By 3:00 it's gone back to the very factory like industrial stuff, and this part is a little less of what I like. One of the things that will really make a mix unliked by me is static. And the percussion here is very loud and staticcy (that a word?) sounding, but it doesn't last long so I don't find it unbearable.

This is really cool shit, I dig industrial. Definitely something you don't hear often on OCR (which is a damn shame). My only complaint would be the muddy encoding - More importantly, this is just a really awesome mix. Get it now.

If nothing else, this is definitely true to the feeling of the original, although I must confess that it's not all to my taste. I'd say it's a keeper. I'm somewhat surprised that this type of rendition of it isn't more common. Oh well, keep 'em coming.

Cool, very cool. Just cool :) Anyone has to admit that it's unique, even if for some reason they don't like it.

[Gaffeizil]

Why, thank you for the praise everyone. :) My firstest remix ever, all posted and stuff! *wipes away a tear*
Excuse me... getting a little mushy... mmp... *runs off*

HAHAHA man this is hysterical. I personally don't have any problem with people covering stuff from one game in particular as long as the source material is good (and let's face it, FF6 is outstanding.)

The visual image I get from this piece alone is worth the mix for me, it has Cid running around the lab, and for some reason there's Servbots in there. Servbots make everything better.

This is damn solid, shows excellent humor and creativity, sticks with the theme all the way across, and the ending where the the mix throws a rod at the end with Cid sighing mightlily, I nearly fell out of my chair. MOST CLEVAR ENDING!!1!!

As others have said industrial isn't my cup of tea, but this one is so well done and funny that it's in my playlist for sure. Wasn't a huge fan of Kekfa's trumpet, and the section from 3:00:3:23, but again this piece is just killer anyway.

Good form, old bean! 8/10!

I think this remix is great! Nice job. My only complaint is that I wish the ending was a little longer with a bit more of the Magitek Factory song.. but one can't have everything! Fantastic remix. Will be glad to hear more of your stuff :)

The more I listen to it, the more I like it. Great work, and - like Zandar - I enjoyed the mechanical breakdowns and Cid's martyred sighs; Ian did well on the vocals. I, too, am no industrial fan, but this was no problem for me. The brass kicks. Good (equal?) luck in the future, Gaffeizil.

Ohhhhh....... DIG IT!
oh man, I'm not a huge FF6 player, and have only really played it on an emulator, and I am not a huge industrial fan(at least i didn't think so..) but DAMN! THIS MIX IS NICE! I really do like the vocals, but my fav part has got to be the pumping bass at 1:20 or whatever. Ohhh, I can't imagine what this is like with massive bass boost. OHHHHHHhhhh!!! *shivers*

this is a totally solid, and masterful mix. PLEASE make more like it! Keep up the good work.
