benevolensaurus Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 It's the composer for Valdis Story! Distinctive string work. Cool to see him join the ocremix community with this submission. This is a great take on Cid's theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amayirot Akago Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love this! Kinda sounds like what a Hans Zimmer-ized take on the FFVII soundtrack would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I thought this was pretty cool. A few flaws here and there, but otherwise solid remix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFlakes Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Sweet stuff. The way the track sort of keeps building and then suddenly goes very quiet at end, awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Strife Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Lol, just previewed it and was thinking "this sounds kind of like Valdis Story", check the comments, turns out it was Zack Parrish who did this track. XD Safe to say, this remix is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chernabogue Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Very nice arrangement, "Cid's Theme" fits very well an orchestra. I really like the blending of the orchestra, electro element, and percussion. I wouldn't have added electric guitars later one, but it works well too. Nice job!

Crulex Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Gorgeous ReMix. The build is incredibly epic right up until the highest peak and carries on to the very end, where we get a nice outro that lets the arrangement take a breath. Sweet as hell debut, Zack.

Brandon Strader Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 The attack on the violins near the beginning is crazy jarring -- needs some much smoother legato or other articulations. In general throughout the piece it could have used smoother articulations, if available, mainly for those distinct attacks.. The super fuzz guitar chugs seem exposed when they're so loud at first, but fit in better later on. And the ending could have been extended a lot. Seems to just peter out. But on the whole, this is a pretty strong mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrox Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It may be called Captain of the Skies, but I think the source's title fits the music better. It has a dark yet inspirational and cinematic atmosphere that is very good. Sweet debut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimeTower Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I just came here after being linked through A Legacy Forgotten (FF VI). Who is this artist?? This is another incredible work; the distinctive flavor of Cid comes right through, but in such a unique way - that's two songs in a row that I thought I knew by heart and each remix caught me in ways I had never imagined. The section 1:00-1:25 sounds like it's out of The Last Of Us - I mean that as an extremely high compliment - and the mix continually evolves without ever getting a static "now a big part, now a little part" kind of feel. (2:15-2:45 is particularly impressive for this.) And again, another gorgeous ending!?!? Wow, am I impressed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
