OceansAndrew Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Your ReMixer name: blackguitar Name of game(s) Final Fantasy Name of arrangement: Gurgling Desert Pond Name of individual song(s) arranged: Gurgu Volcano Your own comments about the mix, for example the inspiration behind it, how it was made, etc.: This is my second contribution to the FF1 Project directed by Brandon. An easy listening country-style arrangement that reminds me of maybe a dry desert or a hot volcano. It has been made in the nick of time, when this track did not seem to be claimed anymore. Hope you like it.
OceansAndrew Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 A fun and pretty unique take on the source. If there was a single source that i'd have imagined to be completely METAL'ed out from FF1, it was this one, and then I get this curveball. The style works very well, and reminds me a bit of ilp0's work. The sound is a touch over compressed, and could use a touch more headroom, but I think it works out well enough. The only sequencing that struck me as a bit off was the fast organ runs sounding too perfected and mechanical, but overall it was a small issue. I do think it could have been expanded and lengthened a touch more, but with the added bridge and unique instrumentation, i'm more than fine passing this. Yes
halc Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 ah yeah, I really dig this mix. the only thing that really bothers me is the ridiculously loud finger-sliding noises during the verses, just a personal gripe. I thought the arrangement and production were both great, and you nailed the style. nice work. YES
DragonAvenger Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 As Andrew said; the one track I would have expected to be balls to the wall metal, and it's country. AWESOME. This is a unique adaption to the source that I think does a lot of things right. The background guitars and bass really get the feel going, and while I think the organ feels a little mechanical and doesn't quite have the oomph I'd like for a lead instrument, it still gets the job done. Yeehaw
DarkeSword Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Ha! This is really fun. Really nice all around. Guitars are spot on. I don't mind the organ at all. Great!!! YES
