What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix.

Short (so short!) but sweet. Wish it carried the tune a bit longer. Can't help but think from the title that sound sparingly used ambient fireplace noises might've warmed it up some, too.

Hmm. Hmm Hmm.
One thing I always notice about songs that start off with sound clips as a thematic cast, is that the cast is often dropped or forgotten by the middle of the song.
There is also the potential for the sound bytes to be used in the middle of the song as mood assistants, or even as notes themselves, such as a loud crack from a log breaking could be used as a beat emphasis, or the shuffle of logs could be a small roll (because if someone is tending the fire the logs are going to move)

Talking about environmental noises often makes me wonder if the .Hack// series might come back in VR. Hmmm...

This is a bonafide foot tapper for sure.  I really enjoyed the tone of the acoustic guitar, the additional instruments and effects were excellent also.  The tune that starts around 1:42 is my favorite part. ?
