JJT Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I was wondering when Fishy would get around to mixing this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I was wondering when Fishy would get around to mixing this game. Hahahaha! I almost took him seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chernabogue Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I love this mix ! The intro is really cool with the synths and the guitars rocks ! Great job, Fishy ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 When you showed me the video, I was pretty blown away. When you told me that what you recorded was done on one take, and that's what was used as one the guitars in the final song, I was floored. Your guitar and production skills are ridiculous, Mr. Fishy. Even though FFVII has been remixed almost to death, I didn't have a problem with your version in the least. Despite my guitar bias, this track is solid through and through. While it doesn't reinvent the wheel or explore very many new territories, what it does do, which is rock, it does well. Posting the video was a great bonus so that I can see how you play, and then imitate it...and then I will become you my face is melted...actually, that would be a great idea for one of the smilies on the site: a smilie with the face melted. Good tunes, good vid, good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 cool to see from the attached video that Cain is as scrubby and unwashed as I am. really solid work, nice playing and production, and the arrangement is very strong. Glad to see you are back mixing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixto Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Tasty mix, mister classical position. Es muy bueno. God, such a ridiculous snare. I loooove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshMaster Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I must agree on the Pendulum sound. It does sound a lot like them with the In Silico rock sound. And that is a GOOD thing!!! Good job my friend, you rock my world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Listening to this mix is like watching a magician perform. I am spellbound at the sheer mastery of the guitar displayed here. Also this feels like a full course meal; this is extremely satisfying and there's absolutely nothing skimpy about this mix. Completely awesome and amazing.

DragonAvenger Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 The transition between themes is pretty seamless, which is always a plus. Some nice combinations between the synths/guitars/drums; nothing feels overpowering or underfelt. I feel like the drums get just a mite bit stale towards the end, but it's not something that drags down the mix in any way. Overall some nice work and a good listen.

ChaosPlayer Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I'd have to say, wow. Been looking for a remix of the battle remix again and the transition is out of this world. A + Must listen and for those who are big on this battle music with guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil_Cronos Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Sounds good. I like the emerald weapon reference in the title. I think that it adds a little more, although unneeded, 'umpf' to the track. Great work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrich Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 it's all right, not a fan of how dry the mix is, and the lifeless drum samples clash with the guitar element in an awkward manner. it would've benefited greatly from even a little more reverb to fill the background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MojoHamster Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 The guitar sounds like it was recorded in one of Dexter's kill rooms. No mess left behind. The best bits about this remix is the harmonized guitar part some time after the 2 minute mark (makes me dream of FF7 NES). Also when you played with the Rhythm of the FF7 battle music (Was that syncopated?) that was awesome. Those two moments were the 'boner' moments for me, would like to have heard some call backs to those points. But way better than anything I can do, and a subjective opinion on my part.

Emunator Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 This is pretty great, Fishy, though I can't shake the feeling that the mix feels a little... empty. Not quite as intense as some of your other songs, even though the genre adaptation feels like it should be. I've still enjoyed listening to this one ever since I saw it come up on your Youtube profile, but I don't think it's your strongest effort to date.

Bahamut Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 This song has some interesting ideas, but I feel like some more work could go into this, particularly in having some more low end in the song (with a rhythm guitar or putting the drums more forward maybe?), and perhaps using the second part of the boss theme from the game to make the song more full. It feels somehow incomplete when it ends after just going into the beginnings of the boss theme. I do like the rest of the song though, as here we have the drums dictating the pace, and there are other nice touches in the song such as with the surf sound with the guitar in the beginning.

Igami Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I actually thought I was listening to a ReMix of something from Final Fantasy IV until I took another look at the title. This is a pretty sweet song, regardless of whatever Roman numerals you slap on the end of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. X Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 If this is an example of the quality of music we can expect from Fishy now that he has resigned from judging then I am truly excited. This mix is so well put together and generally rocks hard and heavy. If Fishy keeps making mixes like this then god help us all cause the world cant contain that much awesomeness.

Nario Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Just stopping by to say: I enjoyed this! The Pendulum-like percussion was also a reminder at how action-PACKED this song truly is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Penwald Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Definitely hearing the Pendulum influence. While I agree that the remix does not sound as "full" as it could, I'm not particularly bothered by it. Nice use of the vocal sample at 4:34; the part afterwards is pretty nice, too.

metalsnakejuice Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 This just blew me away with all its awesomeness. There is plenty that i love about but that vocal sample made it even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
