Default OCR00772 - Final Fantasy VI 'Phantom Midnight'

Final Fantasy 6 'Phantom Midnight'

I personally really liked this piece. The arrangement is straightforward, yes, but it's strength lies more in the emotion it lends the song rather than in showing it in a new light. Not the greatest FF mix here, but worth a download unless you have something against the game.

Who doesn't like the Phantom Forest? This arrangement has, like everyone has said, emotion to it, and a kind of darkness and sadness. It is too short, I think, but is worth downloading.

True, it does have emotion. And I know I said elsewhere something along the lines of solo piano needing perhaps some accompaniment (not often do you hear any solo piano on radio stations of that nature). But nonetheless it is still good. He could've added a couple train sounds though and that would've made it great, imo.

This arrangement floored me. Using two or three notes to sketch out a chord structure from a well-known song is a time-honored tradition, and Pollard really does this well. My sole complaint is that it's too damn short.

How many Chef Kawasaki awards can be given at once, anyway?? :D
I liked this one. But the clipping was really annoying.

I loved this one.. it almost felt like a great continuation to the ff6 piano collections CD .. :)

and I like it fully piano as it is.. i actually think it could be better with more piano here and there in the slight silences in between :)

but all in all.. nice mix.. we don't get many piano solos on this site ^_^

sorry about the peak clipping. :) this is the first track i've recorded with gigastudio, so i was not recording in the best way possible. also, the clipping -should- be hardly noticable unless you're using something like winamp with its graphical equalizer for playback...

thanks for all of the comments, though. glad you all enjoyed it, for the most part.

I thought it was beautifully done.

It's depressing, yet romantic. This is a song you'd play if you were having a conversation with your girlfriend.

And it reminded me more of Castlevania SOTN.

It's not often a song is remixed so well, that it can fit into more than just one game.

Congrats on this remix. I hope to hear more from you.
