Me, Drumultima, and two scholars not on OCR (Dana Plank and Michael Harris) have begun playing through Final Fantasy VI while we talk about what's interesting in the music as we go along. The first quarter or so of the game is done and posted to YouTube here -- join us Thursday, 2/9, at 9:00 PM EST for the next session (likely to include the opera scene). Any particular things you're interested in hearing us muse over between leaving Narshe after Terra flies off and departing for Thamasa (as far as we're likely to get next time)? Let us know! EDIT: Our second session is up on both YouTube and Twitch -- we got as far as the escape from the Magitek Research Facility. Doug couldn't make it (thanks to the Northeast weather) so we called upon Julianne Grasso to sub for him.

Hey Everyone! Just dropping by to say that this is looking great, keep up the good work!

Seeing that you're looking for advice and direction, I'm not reading this as an actual eval; that would be something that you intend to submit to OCR, and are looking for an evaluator or judge to pop in and give how they believe it would be judged. If that IS what you were looking for, a (quick) eval: this is a VERY conservative interpretation of the source, with the instrumentation and arrangement being very similar to what was provided in the soundtrack. While covers are not inherently an issue, that would definitely earn this track a rejection on (or even prior to) the panel. Again, though, I doubt that's what you were looking for, so a heads up: only use Mod Review / Eval for the purpose of submitting a track. As a standalone track (and NOT looking at it as a future OCR submittion), it's clean, and it flows quite well. The use of sidechaining was subtle, but it does leave some room for the four-to-the-floor well enough. It's something that's less noticeable, but it does improve the clarity of the track, so props to some solid chaining. I enjoy the track, and feel like it would've worked well as a re-arrangement for a DS or 3DS version of the game. Thanks for sharing.
