Protricity Posted July 15, 2003 Posted July 15, 2003 This is quite an interesting mix of some of the FF8 themes. Quality could be better, but the arrangement is rather well done. I'll have to get back to this one. EDIT: This song is lacking the low tones... It is also quite short. It never builds or goes anywhere. There is no real ending either. NO
Israfel Posted July 26, 2003 Posted July 26, 2003 Hmm...a tricky one. Sound quality isn't great, and the arrangement, while fairly nice, isn't really anything special. I don't know- it's borderline. But the arrangement is mostly well done, and the piece is enjoyable so, I'll go with a YES
m68030 Posted July 29, 2003 Posted July 29, 2003 I really didnt' find this all too terribly different from the original, save for the instrumentation.. Past that, it just felt very undefined with all the softness of the sounds, it... it is pleasing, but still not something I really enjoy. I dunno I'm torn, but I guess it's enjoyable to some people, so I'll say YES and see if it's not outvoted.
Malcos Posted July 29, 2003 Posted July 29, 2003 The quality of sound is not great, but not terrible either. The arrangement is ok, but to be honest I was bored with this mix. This really is a borderline thing for me, I'm going to go for a NO
Disco Dan Posted July 30, 2003 Posted July 30, 2003 This may have been borderline, but then I listened to the original. http://ramsites.net/~s2dwcabr/FF8 410 The Successor.minipsf There is NO variation except in the instruments used. The original is 3:37, and I listened to it the whole way through. Then to test my theory, I picked a spot around 2:40 and listened to it. Then I listened to this remix at around the same spot. I had to backtrack just a bit but found the spot I was looking for. It's a slightly shorter and "orchestrated" version of the original. No other changes as far as I can tell. NO D
Vig Posted August 1, 2003 Posted August 1, 2003 most of the instruments sound like they could have been done on an SNES. maybe not the strings. i guess the biggest problem with this is that it doesnt offer a whole lot over the original. it also never really goes anywhere. we want to hear something different, please. NO
