Marking the first totally new submission from McVaffe for some time, it gives me great pleasure to unveil his latest ReMix on this 31st night of October.
Trick or treat :)
Discussion: Latest 15 comments/reviews; view the This is so good I hunted through the internet to find where this
came from, and here it is! Massive kudos to McVaffe.
My only feedback is that the piano part between 1:33 to 1:51, whilst tuney, is soft compared to the rest of the piece and seems quite out of place. I would pay to have that adjusted - no kidding. Are you still around McVaffe?
The harpsichord is such a nice touch! All of a sudden I have a hunger for Polka :-P
Edit: I've just cross/fade edited it out, now I'm happy :D

I really love how this is broken into about three/four sections and
how it progresses through each.
It's as if someone's starting a game of Tetris and listens to the title theme.
Then at 0:55 they actually begin a round.
At 1:52 (where the mix really begins), reality fractures and the player is at some obscure, romantisiced Eastern European village at festival time.
Then at 3:54, its time to go home.
Great mix and worth listening to.

This remix is one of the best I heard in some time. I'm a fan on
baroque music and the harpsicord :)

It's Halloween!! Candy, ghouls, and goblins aside,
today I celebrate the 5th anniversary of the posting of my favorite
harpsichord-centered remix! Love it Mike!
3:23-end sounds very familiar to me. Can't place it right now, but if it's not from Tetris, I'd be willing to bet it's VG related in one way or another.

Cool stuff, but I've always wonder what, if anything, if being
arranged from 3:23 until the end. Didn't hear it anywhere in the
GBS or NSF sets. Pretty seamless original writing if that's in fact
what it was, but I wish Mike or someone else could give more
information.

Thank you for the transition at 3:30. It keeps the track alive. The
instrumentation choice on this song is wonderful. Sorry if I am not
giving props where they are due, but if you are the first to use
the harpsichord, very original choice. Perhaps a few more bpm
faster would have given the song a bit more umph. Anyway, wow,
awesome, very simplistic remix. Thank you McVaffe.

McVaffe, you are a very skilled composer, and contribute much to the video game remixing community.

I can't believe such a brilliant piece of music could be made from
all the musical piece of Tetris. It truly is a gift from Russia,
with its baroque tunes and folk-style backgrounds. Superb!

Great mix. Good beats that are great to hum along. This piece
brings me back some good memories playing this game on my Gameboy
and NES. And there is some nice Russian theme to this mix.
Recommend.
