peshti Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Original Composer - Nobuo Uematsu Cover made by - Peshtiwar Botani Track: FF7: Let the Battles Begin Consider this my first attempt of making an orchestral cover of this track, I love this track a lot and will probably give it another go in a couple of years when I get better. I do think I did a good job overall, some things could be improved, this musical growth is so rewarding. Take this for a spin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metris Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Damn! That hits hard! Love the percussion and unique violin resonances. This genuinely sounds professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 There's definitely potential, just from an OC ReMix arrangement standards lens, to be more interpretive with the treatment of the composition. That said, from a sound design perspective, this already personalizes the theme quite nicely, even if we're looking for additional aspects of arrangement. Too bad the track also has no real resolution; there's definitely more runway available to iterate on the theme further, perhaps get more interpretive with a second verse. Cool sound upgrade, peshti!

pixelseph Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Hi Peshti! This is coming along nicely! The change to the melodic tags works really well - like Larry, I would love to hear a more complete resolution to it, perhaps with some more build after 1:45? Looking forward to more!

The Vodoú Queen Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Jesus Christ...this does hit hard, and I love it. ♥ Sounds like something that would directly get placed in the Remakes (and feels like it should've!) It's very conservative and could be considered a 1:1 cover, but if you decide it at any time, I think this could definitely get through a submissions here on OCR. :) Would need a bit more of "you" put into it, like maybe an additional harmony line, or progression chords, and a solid ending, but what you've got here is hidden gold and I think if you do work on these talents you've got already, you can apply this to other sources and do something rad with them. I very much look forward to hearing more of these covers from you. :D If you need some help thinking up more to incorporate into this to make it OCR-applicable, just hit us up here or on the Discord. Pretty sure this one is a keeper, though, and TBF, won't need much added to it to make it, IMO. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paradiddlesjosh Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Hey there peshti! The sound design and production are top-notch for your take on the track. The arrangement is very close to the source, with one A-B transition cut out and several voices removed (mostly trumpet and flute/piccolo lines). Like Liontamer, I would kill to hear some more transformative additions to the material from you on this one. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
