Heroic (MIcro Mages OST)

[Treyt]

Someone mentioned this track at some point in the discord and it stuck in my head and I love it a billion, so I've been working on a remix.
There's two versions of the track that I've seen online. Having never played the game, I represented them both.

Originals in their various versions:

Here's my remix:

Enjoy, and lemme know if I should submit it as is or not.

Evaluation:

I hear both sources used, and some interpretation on both with a little bit of originality thrown into this.  Big checkmark!
Your calmer B sections both come at lovely times.  Tempted to see what happens when you really let loose and shred some crazy solos.

Things I loved were the pads at the beginning and the huge 80s tom fill to get us to the source at 0:33.

My only minor gripes are high end buzzing which can be tamed.  Sounds like it's coming from a lead synth that's panned on the right side.
The snare could use some variation in the velocities to help with it sounding more real and less sequenced (I'm guilty of this too).  0:45 glitch pause for the fill is awkward and doesn't quite work for me.

Whenever you have the pads/strings going, you could really take this to the next level with some automation on them to get them to crescendo/decrescendo.

Fix up those minor things and I think you're good to go.  Big improvements from your previous track, nice work.
