Hausdog Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I can appreciate that it's good, but it's not my style. Quote
ProjectSpam Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I <3 Long Dao. Awesome work as usual. Quote
marcyt Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I love this! The instrumentation is very strong--I especially like the use of the timpani. I couldn't just listen once the first time, this is a remix that needs to be replayed several times to catch all the nuances. It will probably take many listens to really get it. Fantastic debut!

Kingmaster74 Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 This was a beautiful piece of music. I especially liked 4:00, because the clarinets give it a dark feeling. One of the best Zelda pieces out there. Quote
Sam Ascher-Weiss Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Greatest musician of our time Quote
Monobrow Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 !!! Long is skilld I hear he skilld I've listened to this song many times, and I've always been impressed by the choices you make with the theme, especially with the percussion. It really encompasses what is expressed through your title choice as well. Awesome, crazu songu, especially the finale. Quote
DrumUltimA Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 way to go long! awesome stuff as usual, i love the way the music winds about. it's like i'm running through a magical forest... :}}} Quote
anosou Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Long's the man. This is one of the most enjoyable and interesting orchestrations I've heard in a long time and I'm picky Moar plz! Quote
OceansAndrew Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Completely awe-inspiring interpretation. It is completely dynamic and exciting throughout, and the subtle (at at times not-so-subtle) tempo changes really give it a sense of life. Balance is wonderful, and the textures are varied for each section. Completely captivating from start to finish. There's not much else for me to say besides stellar work. This is the best spade I've heard in a long time. Quote
Protricity Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 This is definitely a song! Good job Quote
Hausdog Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Whoa. I just realized how unimpressed I sounded in my first post. I want to hear more stuff from you. Is that better? Quote
derako Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I like this piece. (keep in mind I'm a perfectionist) I'm assuming that EWQL was used or it sure sounded like it. I heard the brass in certain places sound kinda (machine gun'ish) at times. With EWQL you should use RR or Round Robin staccato samples to improve that in future arrangements. Other than that it's an awesome rendition of a great theme. Very nice job indeed -Derek- Quote
Nutritious Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Beautiful music here and great arrangment and development of themes. Funny thing is, I recently started a Dark World orchestral arragement myself. Needless to say, it's now officially scrapped . I really would've liked to hear this song to full-bore on the main Dark World theme, but despite that, it's still a very pleasing arrangement. The Death Mountain section really brought back memories of the first time I reached that point in the game (yeah, the rabbit part). Pieces that bring back this kind of nostalga are my favorite listens. Well done. Quote
Rambo Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 It didn't take long for me to start loving this song. The atmosphere it delivers is absolutely incredible. Great work, hope to hear more soon. Man I love this song. Quote
Joseph Collins Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Grab yer ten-gallon hat an' ride on in to town with this rip-snortin' good remix of two of th' Dark World themes from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, pardner! Yeehaw!! Okay, but seriously. This sounds like something out of a Western movie. And incidently, I highly approve of that concept. It's a very pretty song with both calm and exciting parts to it. Well done! Quote
Platonist Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 yehaa, ive always loved this sourcetune! and finally there's another worthy remix of it! first time i hear anything from Long .. hopefully not the last! Quote
LuckyXIII Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I really like the use of the Death Mountain Dark World theme and not just the "regular" Dark World theme; it's not one oft-used. Definitely a five star mix on my playlist. Quote
eppy Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 If this song had a gender, I'd merry it, rape it, tap that twice around down town, and then loop her in my infinity of halfway 8 loop. Long Dao. Great? Or Greatest? Personally, I'd choose the latter. Long Dao is the greatest InbeforeIBFT. Quote
senseiireland Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Is that the Castlevania 2 ending them I hear at 4:00? Quote
Martin Penwald Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Great stuff. I like how the themes were arranged, and the way the mix picks up speed and energy in the second half is wonderful. Especially digging the section from 4:17 on. Very powerful ending starting at 5:42. My only gripe is that the section starting at 4:47 is much, much too short. I'd have liked to hear more of that. Quote
polar- Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Well-made piece, though it's a little too interpreted for my taste at some points. I'm probably going to get shot for this, but i actually hate it when someone change the main melody with the classic "take-the-last-tone-and-bump-it-up-one-note" formula. The later interpretations of the melody was great though. Overall, very high quality stuff! Quote
pokezel Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Am I the only one feeling "The Final Countdown" at 0:38? Quote
MaCe Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 wow good quality stuff ,what program is he using i wonder... Quote
