This is an atrocity.  The original is such a beautiful song, and it has an outstanding vocal.  But this remix runs that voice through a horrendous chopping filter.

Look, there are ways to add a "glitching" effect that sound really cool, fun, and interesting.  But you can't just run some glitching filter on it and call it a day.  And the more "glitching" one adds, the more careful one must be with it.  But this is half the song made to sound like something is wrong with your internet connection, completely destroying a beautiful original piece.

back when I made this there weren't any fancy glitch plugins or glitch fx hardware available, but I agree, this remix hasn't aged well (oh, and it's not a "glitch" but a gating-effect to gloss over the fact that the vocals and the remix don't run in sync)

[Chrono Trigger Schala Trance super extended remix]

just couldn't resist, so I took my remix from 2003 and added filter effects with ableton and

a second and third melody-track (using the super-amazing Rayblaster VST)

(added an old video of a landscape I built in cryengine sandbox years ago)

remix (well, 2 remixes actually) can be heard here:

[Previous FF6 Kickstarter *cancelled* BUT new one in the works!!]

as long as Nobuo Uematsu gets 50% of the funds raised (and another 15% to square enix for using the trademarked name Final Fantasy) I'm ok with this project
