Carbon Dog Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Too long? Can the Grass be too green? Can the Sky be too blue? personaly, I would have loved to see it longer, but I'm afraid that if it was, some harm might come to those magical fingers. Quote
lightwarmth Posted February 8, 2004 Posted February 8, 2004 *jaw drops* this is amazing. Absolutely amazing. PLEASE ARRANGE MORE PIANO PIECES! WOW! As a piano arranger myself, this is truly awe inspiring/making me totally feel like I amoutn to nothing. Great job! Quote
LateralSnowflake Posted February 12, 2004 Posted February 12, 2004 I challenge fans of Chrono Trigger to play THIS SONG during the Trial Sequence and turn the volume and color intensity settings on your TV ALL THE WAY DOWN. Then...you will TRUYL experience the beauty, grace, and style this piece has to offer. THANK YOU SPEKKO! Quote
smallestfry Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 IN-CRED-IBLE! I love it! One of my favorite tunes from CT. Definately captures the absurdity of the trial. Quote
Silveranth Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 One of my few favorites in ct! It makes me wish I could play piano like that! Such musical genius! Quote
Lord Veovis Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 Holy crap this is good! And he did this all in one take? That's just insane! I like the Russian sound of everything. It feels as if a lifetime of emotions have been put into this masterpiece. The increase in speed around 3'30 is done very well. Then it slows down some, slows down more, speeds up.... this is my favorite piano solo remix. 10/10 Quote
Dionyseus Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 Simply amazing, and that's all I'll say about this piece. Quote
EvilFreya Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 I can't believe that this is the only "The Trial" remix here. That's a really cool song, and this remix proves it. This remix is absoluteley gigantically spectacuarly amazing. I couldn't find anything good enough to sum it up with one word. It's THAT cool. Quote
SixthFlyingMan Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 Hmm.... I don't think it was too long, any more than the game was too long. Both could have been twice as long, and still been incarnations of perfection. At 3:15, I was disappointed; "Over already?!?" But then it came back, sounding almost like something I would hear as a "Tetris" background, probably because it was so heavily Russian. There were some parts horribly dissonant, but that was part of what made it all so excellent. That's the "bite" of the song, and the whole thing would be crap without it, just like a daquiri would be crap without the bite that the rum gives. Unfortunately, my download cut the song short at 7:21, which really sucked. Kudos, Spekkosaurus! Now I HAVE to listen to those EB remixes of his, too. Quote
CC Ricers Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Good job, Spekio! This is a very good interpretation of the theme. I like the somewhat rough texture of the piano sound. The dramatic climbs, the sudden slowdowns, it sounds like I'm playing Chrono Trigger through one of those 'newfangled' stereopticons, and it's 5 cents per half hour! Oh crap, can Crono save Marle from the oncoming train? Quote
SirRus Posted September 19, 2004 Posted September 19, 2004 The things you can do with the piano are simply amazing. Wow. Quote
hjalfi Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Fabulous. Truly. It's got structure, it's got style, it's literate, it shows a deep appreciation and understanding of what makes music, and yes, it's got mad piano skillz. It's just the right length, too. What it doesn't have is a download link! Where can I get it? Preferably better quality than 64kbit stream... the artist profile page just points at mp3.com, which is defunct, and there's no other information. Someone said that this apparently came from vgmix.com, but I can't find anything there, either... Quote
Aruthra Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 What do you mean, there's no link? It's right there on the song page, same as always. Quote
Slayer of Mortals Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Absolutely amazing. Stunning. I am listening to it right now in awe. I have a few friends who are damn good at piano but this song just completely 0\/\/nz00Rz them. Excellent, excellent job on this one. 5/5 Quote
hjalfi Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 Yeah, there is a link --- just finished downloading it. I was misled by the fact that for some bizarre reason my mouse pointer doesn't indicate that it's a link when I hover the mouse over it... very bad form on the otherwise quite well-designed ocremix site! But I now have a copy. Of my very own. Yay! Quote
jordex Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Nice, I love it! For some reason, this is exactly what I was expecting from reading the title. Hmm... What is there to say about this piece... It's very... good... DL it! Quote
Moo2u Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Without a doubt my favorit solo piano mix on OCR. Very fast, fun, and even a bit hectic. Very nice job. Quote
cobaltstarfire Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 Holed cows, this is a pretty awsome song. I love the piano I think it's pretty remarkable that you rapped this out too, can't beat a good piano ditty... *goes off to be a dork elsewhere* Quote
Jabberbox Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 it carries on wonderfully, and when its fast, its "exciting and suspensful" and when slow its "dramatic and meaningful" just how this style of composition is supposed to be Quote
polar- Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Nice song, but the piano didn't sound too good in this piece. It was a little too thin imo. Also the dynamics wasn't very good. Quote
LinearX Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 I can imagine this song be played alongside a silent film on an old projector. The villian ties Marle to the railroad tracks while twirling his incredibly long mustache. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COUNT: (Nefarious laughter) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MARLE: Help me, Crono!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote
HershDawg Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 I would rate it one of the best arranged piano mixes on the site. Not the best but one of them. Quote
Heyjohnny Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 I Love this song, and it sticks out among the rest of the CT remixes.....there are way too many Zeal techno remixes, although I like a lot of them, there's still way too many. But this song, I love the trial song in the game, and you did a very good remix of it. I actually made a game and had this song going in the background for the beta...and it fit awesomely! (it was an FPS called Heyjohnny) Thanks for this one spekkosaurus(sp probably wrong) Quote
Bummer Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Did you play this for real? Nah, can´t be, hehe...yeah...or? Because this was the most skilled pianoplay I´ve heard. I´m speechless, nice work with the ivory, Spekkdude. Quote
M4x0rz Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 Okay, I just registered to OCReMix, after having listened to remixes old and new on this site for a year and a half or so. I'm a pianist, a video game pianist at that, and this remix still blows me away every time I listen, which is pretty damn often for a song. It has inspired me just to learn the note patterns of this remix (by ear) and just improvise and go crazy like Spekkosaurus does here. every second of this piece is just so fucking cool, well-played and almost hair-raising This OCReMix is godly as far as solo piano goes on this site, and it must be listened by everyone, like djpretzel says highly recommended.
