Final Fantasy VII Tribute: Voices of the Lifestream
Posts
... whilst our laughter echoed under cerulean skies.
Fucking chills down my spine, son!
Which is why 'live' game music cover bands are so much better. They generally don't add too much new unnecessary stuff to the song, they just outright cover it in their style, be it punk, metal, ska or what have you. That's why I always prefered VGMix, too, until it went down. There's some awesome tracks in this remix project but many suffer from what for me is my biggest problem with Overclocked Remix as a whole - I spend the first half of the song thinking "this is nice and all, but where the hell is the source tune I downloaded this track to hear redone?"

No.
This is just a tribute.
I've never heard a CC remix better than the original track.
This project is good, the CT one and the Earthbound one are better.
"Wait, XoB, FF7, there is something here..."
If you're wondering, no, I've not given up on my FF7 PC LP thread, I was just playing it last night. I needed to find the right combination of patches to get all the minigames working. The first post should be Monday.
Actually, it's cliche these days to hate on FF VII, someone actually professing love for it is a bit refreshing.
No, I still think 6 is better, soundtrack and all, but seven has some amazing tracks. The main theme for instance.
It's also funny that the Black Mages cover of the Boss theme might rock less hard than the actual rockin version of that track.
An FF6 remix tribute along this lines of this and Chrono Symphonic would be the best thing ever.
As a side note for whoever said FF7 has the best boss music ever (it's definitely good, don't get me wrong), go and listen to the Nocturne soundtrack. In fact the SMT games in general kick FF's ass in the music department.
I agree Nocturne's jams be the shit. FF 10's Temple Hym always got to me, was so pleasant to here. The rest of the music is meh. FF 7 style is cool sounding with a hint of epic!

I agree. This isn't good.

Are we including Dancing Mad and Atma Weapon?
Because if so, I think FF7 just got raped.
Go listen to Terra in Black.
It's actually REALLY Good and it's not this "OH LOOK RANDOM EFFECTS AND CRAPPY BEATS"
...may not be the style of music for everyone, but if you played the game and enjoyed it, these remixes can bring back some of the powerful memories you might have felt while playing the game.
On top of the nostalgia value, the tracks seem pretty well produced.
So there you go.
Edit:
I enjoyed and remember a lot of the FFVI music but you gotta remember that FFVII was a CD game...and the production values and track quality were far superior.
The game just had more content in general, than VI.
Still thought VI was a great game, and more favored in my mind.
Secret Satan
Is it even in the game?
Neither does Fight On.
And Red XIII's theme is...
it's fucking somber and slow, you fucking pricks. Why is this FAST!?
Guh, this is horrid.
I'm sorry, this is just an insult.
Are you joking me? I can plainly hear that part as soon as I load up the song.
EDIT: First CD looked more then fine, but I'll be honest with you guys .... I'm so lazy I'd rather bug PA for an answer then look through the rest.

STOP MAKING THESE! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!?
...oh God, it's amazingly bad.
How dare they fuck with 1:30 midi loops!
If it was midi it was the best midi soundtrack for anything I ever heard.
The Sonic remix compilation they did seemed to avoid this pitfall, but not this one. Still, some of the tracks on here are great, so I'll be glad to have got those from it at least.

Though I guess it's not really a remix, just the original songs played with celtic instruments.
Hey. Hey. Some of these compilations are great. The Kirby one was good, the Doom one was great, the Donkey Kong Country one was good, I haven't listened to the Metroid one but I remember it being pretty good. The Sonic ones are good too.
I don't remember how good the Street Fighter one is because I haven't listened to it in a while. It did have some unneeded lyrics in songs though, I will give you that.
45 dollars good??

You can probably find it cheaper elsewhere, but it is really good.
