This song lives up to every expectation I have of ffmusic dj. Althought it is on the plain side, it has those sparks that keep the song alive. I give this song a 8/10. Great work by the way, I hope to hear more from you in the future!!

I feel this is one of ffmusic dj's worse songs, the way the melody just stops with no echo or reverb drives me mad, when I heard it in the car the first time, I almost crashed. The beat is plain, the build up isn't special, I feel that ffmusic dj could've done a much better job on this song, and I hope he goes back and refurnishes it up.
I give this song a 4/10

I'd have to give this one a 8.5/10, I really like some of the sound work he does here, it sounds like it took a lot of effort. I also enjoy the rhythm work he does here. Download this song you're in for a treat.

This defintaely has that swing to it, or that funk. The patches used sounds a bit out of date, great rhythm, and is fun in general. I'd give this one an 8/10.

It just sounds like it's missing something. Like an electric guitar solo, or something. Hard to explain.
it's short, it's unsatisfying, appropriate soundfonts, but poor and lazy song design. this isn't one of amievil's best songs. I'd recommend his other stuff much more
3/10

This is not just a song about a specific place or a specific person but
rather a journey, and boy does that sound cheesy =D.
This is what is pictured in my mind,
1) there is a storm and you get onto a boat, where you travel to the
middle of the sea.
2) where the choirs are is where you jump into the water (with the help
of a summon, if you play the game you know what I'm talking about and I
don't want to spoil anything for anyone).
3) as you get further and furthur down you start seeing this city under
the water.
4) it's much further a long in technology than any other city known to
man at this time, it is incredibly advanced. Thus the electronic
sounds.
Anyways I hope you enjoy, the storm is approximately 10 tracks, the
song with out the storm was around 30-40 tracks, this song I've spent
the most on.
Bad things:
1) I wanted to have a friend do the violin part, to give more of a real
feeling, however, he's working and is busy and doesn't think his skills
are up to par, (I completely disagree). Maybe I'll resubmit later
(much later) with real violins if I get someone to record it for me.
2) Also I wanted to get my girlfriend to do some talking vocals between
when you jump in the water and the pure electronic part at the end
stating like how many kilometers, how many knots... etc.. like those
female computers that tell you information.
and those are the bad things, well things I wanted to happen but
couldn't

Great song, I'd definately give this one a 10/10. The voice choice is 10/10, the rhythm choice is 10/10, overall effect is 10/10. Keep up the good work, and I hope to hear more from you soon!

I gave this song a 8/10. Inappropriate voices, decent rhythm, GREAT melody, and a WONDERFUL overall affect. Just the voices seem to be very immature in general.

great song, 9/10, good job, great great job!! Appropriate voices, decent rhythm, nice melody, and good overall effect.
download if you like techno or if you like breath of fire.

definate background music, I enjoyed it, however I would listen to this only when I'm driving in a LONG car ride, or if I'm doing homework. Easy listening, nice melody, nice but non-dynamic rhythm. I'd give this song a 5.5/10

The intro at first sounded a little long, I do agree, however it does set in that, uneasy feeling, so I wouldn't change it.
The plucked strings in the beginning is an awesome idea for a drum and bass remix. It is almost obvious that the song is going to be a kick butt song after these strings pop in.
The drums roll in and you get that feeling like, OH YEAH, LETS GO KICK SOME.. stuff... =D.
The treble piano melody is perfect, it fits right in with the rest of the beat and gives more to the dnb/jungle feeling.
This piece is highly recommended if you like kind of like dnb. For hardcore dnb fans, I'm not quite sure if the beat is something that would impress you. (although I am thoroughly impressed others have not been). If you like a melody line in your dnb, definately get this piece.
I rate it a 8/10 only because it seems to be too repetitive after a while, and it's a very simple song, but well done.
kudos to you pisces, I'll be a first downloader of your newest remix if you do ever create another.

Yeah this is one of my favorites too, however, I did like some of his other work a little more, I give it a 7/10. I agree with krispykreme, the mix does have too much put into the introduction, and the middle of the remix just doesn't seem to last long enough, that's why the low score.

9/10
genre: Drum and Bass (jungle)
This is an excellent drum and bass remix, I think that any DnB lovers should definately love this piece, It's on my most listened to CDs. I give it a 9/10, just because it starts sounding repetitive after a while, other than that it's a great remix!!

I think it's a decent song, download it if you like industrial, or you like final fantasy 7. I think it's appropriate to the game and it's excellent in it's genre. However, it doesn't seem to follow the actual game music very much at all, I don't know how I'd rate it. probably between a 6-8 out of 10.

10/10
genre: epic trance
I think this is a definate download, it's soothing and it's great to listen everywhere you go. This is the song that I dled from audio galaxy, and was wondering who the artist was, and where it came from. So I typed in OC in my google search, and found oc remix. This song brought me to OC remix =D. It has appropriate voices, good transitions, and good overall affect.

Definately a must get, everything is great, 10/10, the genre is almost a slow electronica/melodic sounds. I helped him get the sounds of the chirping insects in the beginning lol, however I didn't realize he was going to produce this caliber of a song, definate 10/10, I'd download it even if your bandwidth sucked =D.

This is a definate 10/10. Get it, great transitions, great appropriate voices, great rhythm, great overall feeling, great originality, great everything... get it even if you hate supermetroids =D..

9.66/10
genre: industrial
This is a kick butt song =D, especially if you're in the mood for industrial music. It's a must get for industrial artists, for the good industrial style I'd give it a 10/10 =D. For your choice in instruments, 10/10. For the way the overall piece flows a 9/10 (too short, and something didn't seem to click really well). Over all you get a 9.66/10

8/10
genre: trance/epic trance
I think it's a great mix, yes the energy may not be bursting at the seems, but it seems to be more of a reflective theme. Anyways, the voices seem to be appropriate, however, I think that the pianos could be more original, so because of the piano similarity, I gave it a 9, and because I think that it seems not as original as it could be, I have given it an 8. It's hard for me to give it a low grade, because I listen to this song very much, however it doesn't make it a great song nor does it make it a bad song. It is better than so many remixes that I've heard, can't wait to hear more from you in the future!!
Recommended if you feel like something by Robert Miles, or if you're a Dragon Warror fan, I'd download it if I were you, if you have a good connection speed =D.

10/10
style: trance
Although this is not a novel beginning tune, it's one of my favorites again, maybe cause it's final fantasy 7, or just cause it's an awesome catchy trance line. I think it's a must download, again a 10/10.
the melody kicks in later btw, incase you can't pin point the actual similarities, it's around 1:28

This is definately one of my favorite mixes, it's catchy, good dynamic drums, good choice of synths, good overall feeling, good rhythm choice, everything seems to just make sense in the piece. This one gets a definate 10/10 (I don't give these out very often, a definate download)
-> great part change at 1:31
-> nice change of rhythm section at 1:52

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first remix, and I decided it'd be of my favorite song from Final Fantasy 7, "You can hear the cry of the Planet" by Nobou Uematsu.
It's in a 6/8 time signature, I composed it so it's in D minor instead of A minor... or was it the other way around =D... it's been a long time since I've looked at the piece.
Anyways, about bad transitions, I've heard some people suggest that they liked the piece only because it doesn't just jump into the next part of the song and that they liked the transitions a lot. So when orkybash suggested this, it actually struck a chord about what the other guy said.
This entire mix was done on my Roland JX-305, I didn't add anything from anywhere else, this made it difficult to change problems, add different elements, etc, cause it'd mean I'd have to record. Some of the live elements were the pianos (2, the one in the middle, and the one at the end), the electronic melody, the drums (no quantizing, straight drumming), and the choirs (not the strings). The other voices, I recorded by playing into the keyboard, not programming. I didn't realize you could program noises, into the keyboard, and I didn't have any equipment to make the songs through the computer. This piece was very difficult because you could say it was all recorded live, and tracked together.
Most remixers who do this type of music use certain programs to have a perfect song, that's easy to change the voices, and don't have very much error in their songs, this song is very unique, and could not be replicated, because it has several parts of human error but human error gives emotion into the piece.
anyways I hope you guys liked the piece, just wanted to give a little bit of a background (I hope you guys don't delete the post just cause I responded to my own piece =D)

without looking at it as a well remixed song, the build up is nice, the beginning is interesting, and the beat keeps you going for a while. The cool trance sounds and the interesting melodies that you came up with off of the simple prelude makes me happy. Although this isn't the best that I've heard, I still recommend it as a download. 8/10
