Man, this was great. Chrono Trigger's done to death, no doubt, but look at what you're working with. Are you going to skip a creative "Secret of the Forest" arrangement? NO. Great fundamentals here in terms of lengthy EDM, where you have a gradual build as more and more elements come in before the main verse finally arrived at 1:30, as well as breakdowns like the subtle dropoff starting at 2:59 and eventual ethereal rebuild leading into 4:14. Though the energy was still great and the overall approach was transformative, 4:45 sounded like a retread section until 5:44 added something new by combining different parts of the source together until 6:14 (which was a very cool idea). Repetition wasn't a big deal in the big picture when the arrangement was so creatively developed and expanded to begin with. ABG might feel like creating this piece was analogous to putting on a comfy old T-shirt that still fits nicely and looks good. It takes you back. That said, enjoy the music of someone whose been out of the game for a while but, in reality, never, ever lost a step. ;-) Shawn, it's was a true pleasure to have you back in action. Please keep 'em coming!
