I discovered this remix a bit late, but wow.
I haven't heard anything like this before, and I'm EXTREMELY impressed. I absolutely love the rhythms and syncopations, and the way the rhythm of the melody is delayed, twisted around and just generally messed with. This is one of my favorite video game tunes, too, so that could be part of it!
What's also very interested is that I hear a lot of video game remixes where I'm wanting to hear the main tune and never quite get it and I feel unsatisfied. This remix, as odd as it is, doesn't do that. Between all the textures, the fluctuations, the fading in and out of sounds and the special effects and the modern rhythms, the melody is still there! I still feel satisfied after hearing this.
Definitely one of my favorite mixes. Bravo!
