djpretzel Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 email sub file Final_Fantasy_7_Desert_Sunset_OC_ReMix.mp3 Sorry for the double email, but I just noticed that the mp3 I sent you of the Final Fantasy 7 Desert Sunset ReMix had a couple of minor volume spikes in it. Here's a fixed version. Thanks, Alan Lawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Orichalcon Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Source: http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sony/ps1/desert.mid - The Valley of the Fallen Star (3:22) This mix starts off sounding quite promising with a crisp and clear flute playing a nice intro to the mix, with what sounds like a Koto coming in to accompany. Unfortunately we quickly head into an almost direct midi rip at 0:44. The beat, the flute, the accompanying harp and string rhythm are identical to the original midi. As the choir comes in, nothing changes, and we keep going down the same path as the source. At 2:02 the mix builds up into what I'm assuming is supposed to be a rock mix (with a very tinny and fake sounding guitar.) The only thing that's changed here is the beat and the introduction of the guitar. The mix continues to play the original melody note for note. We're treated to a very nice tempo slow-down with the flute playing the melody to the end of the mix. Unfortunately I'm going to have to throw the book at you. OCR Guidelines]In terms of arrangement - how close or distant ReMixes should be to the original - the general rule is that the ReMix should be YOURS. ... don't simply take a MIDI file and assign new instruments to the parts, or add reverb, and expect that to pass as 'yours'. The quality of the mix was fairly good. The flute chosen for the main melody of the mix was enjoyable, the beats were below average, as was the guitar. You'd probably want to look at getting someone to play any electric guitar you want in your mix live, unless you're willing to put a lot of time and effort into tweaking any samples you have into sounding realistic (which is possible with the right samples.) However, as this is, it's a definite NO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
