m68030 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Final Fantasy VI 'Relm's Weepy Loop' I love the loop in this one. It's got a great grainy lo-fi sound that just fits right in with the gentle piano line. McVaffe is no stranger to your ass, because he's kicked it many many other times. Just bend over and let this one have it's way with you. Don't worry, it'll be gentle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deryck Khusial Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 i remember being in a funk one day and playing this for two hours straight. don’t remember why. since then, i’ve used this mix for any day when i feel fucked (a frequent occurrence). i s’pose the reason i can listen to it so often is because its optimism sharply contrasts my bad disposition..

Tyler Heath Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 Three words. This song rules. McVaffe = God, no question. How does he do the piano...? Wow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWired Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 This song is almost harshly beautifull, i love everything about it. simple piano, good little strings, and that great little low quality drum. Its all that was left to remix on this underused FFVI character ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kairicc Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I like this song alot - it's very sweet! But I have a question, and I've never played FFVI before, so you'll have to bear with me, but why do I hear "Eyes on Me" from FFVIII in there? Sorry if this is a dumb question... Anyway, keep up the good work!!! ~kairicc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironchefm Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Ok, I'm gonna be the first to say something negative, just because I'm like that. This is great and very relaxing, everything is wonderful and lovely, and I enjoyed this mix very much, BUT those drums are driving me crazy! lose them! I heard the first four notes and thought, "hey, this is gonna be a good one" then came the drums... Of course, im just a fan of the orchestral/piano thing, so I'm probably the only one who thinks so.

daprophet Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Beautiful work here; nice plain piano work with vibrant (but not disturbing) drumline...brings out the best in a somewhat melancholy song (the original, that is). Great work McVaffe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shael Riley Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Power-packed with uplifting emotion, this is an example of why McVaffe is the man I miss the most out of all of the artists who've moved on from the community. Monkey Machine, another ReMixer from days gone by, said it all: the lo-fi and piano hit the heartstrings. This is one of those cases in which I think a mix is so good it could replace the original in a remake. Thanks, 'Vaffe, wherever you are.

Royal Sovereign Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 A tad cheesy for my taste...it sounds like two Yaoi characters are sharing a candlelit dinner, or something odd as such. And besides, the bagpipes from Relm's original song are gone. Ho hum. Nice effort though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Less Ashamed Of Self Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 I thought about this track while washing dishes at subway and it brought a tear to my eye. That's a powerful track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordex Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 lol @ above guy i wasn't expecting those drums but they add to the song, lightly distorted but bring more meaning to the song this song runs through my mind alot when im doing homework Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Brilliant, it seems that Vaffdude can´t do a remix that´s bad, this is clealy no exception. As a pianofreak like myself, I totally digged this remix, and for the rest of you, download it anyway, it´s sweet, got characters and it has some real good drums to it.

OceansAndrew Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'm really feeling the lofi vinyl-looped drums and the strings here; I think the piano could have used a little more delay for it to be perfect, but this still something pretty awesome. Subtle melody changes throughout, and a nice balance; it evokes a rainy spring day. I think it follows the source a bit too verbatim, but there was enough deviation to save this gem from the lockdowns, though probably just barely. I certainly wouldnt complained about some additional expansion or interpretation. Of all the OCR artists, I think Mcvaffe is the most represented in my personal playlist, and tracks like this are a pretty good example why.

Mockingbird Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I really find the original annoying, and this remix makes me almost like it, so I'd say it accomplishes a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmiduke Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Very pretty rendition of the theme; a little like the younger brother of a sweeping orchestral version of the theme. I like the gounded feeling of this, and also the added injection of modern style to the mix. It's a perky version, but not too saccharine; a perfect balance of sweetness and melody. I also enjoyed the changes in arrangement and the altered direction of the notes. Maybe it is a tad amiable, but being a McVaffe mix of utmost quality, it's a hard ditty to resist. A pleasure.

Crulex Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Early McVaffe with a good take on Relm's theme. What can I say, any mix that makes me halfway enjoy Relm's theme is a-ok in my book. While not my favorite of some of McVaffe's work, it's still a decent mix from a game that had it's share of easily assessable themes to play with. Nice work.
