Eric Cartman Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 This is some fucked up shit right here o_O aside from Mustins "The Atomizer" this is probably the most insane arrangement on the site IMO. The atmospheric nature of this is great, this has to be one of the creepiest things I've ever heard. The composition is already very depressing and creepy but the voices make it truly messed up. Very good stuff. btw, now that vgmix is back up are you going to put the other 2 up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruk Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Does anyone know what the moaning voice says? I can only pick out a couple things, as well as the "Save me......please....." "I don't want to be saved, I want to be sacrificed". HALP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Alex Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 This song reminds me of how easily FF7 could have been turned into a horror game, and how good it might have been. The guitar work is very nice, granted, but also somewhat repetitive - the real ingenuity of the song is the way it constantly changes. There's always a new element around the corner, always something novel and startling or creepy. I can certainly see why people said it sounded like Diablo, as the guitar is the exact same style Matt Uelmen used for the soundtracks to those games. The overall feel, though, is somewhat less fantasy than Diablo, and more dark gritty vampirish. The first half reminded me of the Hellsing soundtrack, actually. Just... yeah. This be a disjointed review. You have to listen to the song. If you haven't already, do so, now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babysoft-chan Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Oh my... I'm only 2 minutes into this and already I'm in love with it. So sad and beautiful. And I can easily find the pieces of "The Nightmare Is Just Beginning". A remix of Vinny's theme! YEAS! I LOVE IT! But seriously, I like how everything seems melded together, and the whispers... Totally cool effect! I strongly recommend that any Vincent fans listen to this, because this was done so well! Not only that, it stays true to Vincent's personality. Guilty, confused and mysterious. I have got to say, this is one of my remixes. Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerol Oplan Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Any chance of getting a "script" of this? Every time I listen to it I notice some vocals that I didn't before, but I can't exactly pick out what's being said. This reminds me a lot of Bruce Cockburn's "You've Never Seen Everything" off of the album of the same name(2002 i think). Except not as long.

Oruroku Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 This is probably my favorite re-mix here on the site...this is, really, the ultimate remix. So different, so unique... I love listening to this, it's like a story is being told. There are different scenarios for each switch of pace in the song... Masterfully done. A very good song to begin with, too.

the frantic melon Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 this is such an amazing piece! i cry whenever i listen to it- it's just so unbelievably sad, so hopeless. it sounds like a nightmare. it may very well be my favorite mix on the entire site. i've been working on finding out all those little whispery bits, and this is what i've gotten thus far: There's nothing left Leave me Trust me and live Don't leave me There is no hope No hope There is only today Don't leave me here Save me Please I don't want to be saved I want to be sacrificed Shut up if anybody picks up more, please do post it!

Archaon Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Shut up I could have sworn it was saying "Shinra", not "Shut up". Perhaps it's just a different part that I'm missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj muffin man Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 It does sound wierd and strange I have to admit that but it's just the style of the mix it's still good i think even if it sounds weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mecca- Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Personally I'm more of a strings/piano fan, uplifting type stuff [Aphrodite Oceanus/Pearl Song anyone?] rather than acoustics, bit too solitary for my liking; however I was a big fan of the game, and its not like I dont like my eerie remixes ("There was a hole here" is incidentally my favourite OCR on offer). Still, it's an excellent attempt at a remix that is undoubtably difficult to remaster since the original is so, well, original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestAngel513 Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 Wow, very creepy. The ending especially. It's more like something in your head than an actual song. The voices sound like they're about to scream any second. I like it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Clef Man Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Very cool, definately a lovely soundscape. Just one thing though- Diablo, anyone? O.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Being Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Argh. For some reason I keep comparing these tracks to some of Ennio Morricone's guitar work in "Il Tramonto." However, this piece is more like the 2-headed baby of Morricone and John Zorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IC Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 For the most part this is pretty good, very moody. But what...is...with...that...hiss?!?! Was it intentionally put in there? Why? (Near) constant whitenoise has never been a good thing in my book... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domukaz Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I was listening to the Stone Roses, and I gotta say the intro to "Made of Stone" sounds a lot like this one arpeggio from this remix. Though they're completely different tracks, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 This is a very different remix, and maybe just because Vincent WAS different, I mean he lied in a box in a basement and preferred it to be that way. liked the guitar in the beginning, very sad and thoughtful, also Vincent in a nutshell. The groanings or voices maybe ruined it some, but this a descent weird remix that deserves your attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

about:blank Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 This is great, I love the ambience, this song really reminds me of "ballet for a blue whale" by Adrian Belew. The heart beat at the end of the song made me think of "Dark Side of the Moon". I can't say that I've heard anything like this on the site, and that's definitely a good thing, it's very original in it's own way. The last remix I heard that had zyko's work in it was "Invertebrate Retreat" and that was brilliant, yet, completely different than this song, almost an exact opposite. Very interesting experimental piece. My only complaint is that there was noticable hiss throughout the song, other than that, it's very good. 7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scufo Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Wow... This is...definitely unlike anything I've heard here as of set. And as such, it's very cool. It's kind of more ambiance than anything, but I think it's done very well. The voices are both creepy and compelling at the same time. Very nice.

Lumina Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I signed up simply to comment on this hauntingly beautiful piece of music. There's something about this piece that has the ability to bring out a sense of fear, yet intrigue. I've listened to it a couple times now and every time I find that the twists in the song surprise me every time. The helplessness of the " Please...", the sudden gasps for breath, and the painful moans are simply spine chilling. Vincent was one of my favorite characters of Final Fantasy, and this does him more than justice. As an artist I find this piece extremely inspiring to my work, and it puts me in the perfect mood to paint a very dark and gothic painting. This is different, but also a masterpiece in it's own right. It's easy to see that a piece like this will create a love-hate relationship among listeners, but you can count me to the love end. It's artwork in the form of music, and it's beautiful my friend. Stunning. It's also " Shinra", not "Shut up." Listen carefully and you can definately make out the "ra" that sounds nothing like " up." ~Lumina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendofSymphony7 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I don't believe it. Nobody else finds ties to Tool in this piece? That's what I was thinking when I first heard it. Very wonderful piece, zyk0. Please, bless us with more awesome music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelloegg Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I love this song. I try to listen to it at max volume so that I can understand the voices before the ones at the end. Does anyone know what those ones are saying? I know they're saying something, I just can't understand them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DramaNoMore Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Nice... Niiice... I had nightmares like this. I like nightmares. They test our strengths. Like tough love from our minds. I think i'll keep this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
