"Costa del Sol"
Primary Game: Final Fantasy VII (Sony , 1997, PS1), music by Nobuo UematsuPosted 2000-08-07, evaluated by djpretzel
Nice composition and a very tight sound from first-time contributor Po, who uses a Yamaha CS1x synth for mixing - a nice piece of gear, and one I actually wish I had :) This upbeat take on the Costa del Sol music from the immortal FF7 is both jazzy, funky, and "technoey", without sounding confused. Check out the awesome bassline that reminds me of some better James Brown tunes, and the overall attention to sonic balance - the bass and kick both have a great impact on the ear, and the whole thing is just . . GOOD! Po has at least one other ReMix on the way . . . keep your ears pealed!

Dance? Nah, I feel like I'm in the Dead Rising mall again. Or an elevator. Is elevator house a genre?
This is super basic, from the beat to the handling of the source material, but that's sort of okay. Like the elevator muzak it kind of sounds like, it's inoffensive and has a neat little groove. The percussion is a little bit heavy on those claps sometimes, but the piano sounds nice even if it's very repetitive. Because of how not much happens, I'd say that the song could be half of its length. And it almost is... the last two minutes seem a little unnecessary, although having all the elements of the song together makes them simultaneously the stronger half. It's odd like that.

Sounds like I'm either waiting in the elevator or in a casino playing Pokemon slots due to that vibraphone and syncopated piano chords. Also reminds me of the Mario 'Invincible' theme. Fairly minimalist beat, and not super great, but overall it's pretty cool.

Now this is a mix that is in the "holding up" section. The balance between the bass and the forefront melody is great and helps the e-piano set the mood of a relaxing, yet fun and toe-tapping location. So chill.

I know this may be an old remix. But I just wanted to say that I love the electric piano in this song. It really reminds me of Bomberman Hero. Fantastic job posu yan.

Very chill sound, which is pretty reminiscent of the source. I like how the background really supports the melodies. You can tell a lot of time went into balancing this. Things overall feel a little mechanical, but given that this is 0100 I can be a little forgiving. I've always liked this one anyways.
Nice work.

New and shiny piano comping added to the original melody, with some funky bass to back it up, I really like the style employed here, and almost wish it had been married to a stronger melody than the overly laid-back coasta del sol theme. I'd have preferred a bit more expansion, but there is enough interesting material here for it to be a very fresh take on the theme.
Regardless, this is a very fun and classy sendup of the track, and it has aged extremely well. Not quite a legendary track that tops the charts, but definitely a classic.

It's a party, alright. Yup, grab a stereo, towel, shades, sunscreen and head down to the beach. Kick back, enjoy the rays, play in the waves. An awesome one! Keep it up!

Give me a P!
P!
Give me an O!
O!
What do we got?
PO!
Well, that was fun. This was this remix for that matter too. Very good piano, gave the right feel to it. The bells that came after reminded from Zelda I think, and they fitted very good. As a result, a nice track that you can groove to at the beach. Thanks po!
What is it time for?
PARTY!!!

Love the electric piano and funky bass! I was bobbing my head at school through the whole track, it was very chill and the likes! Nice work indeed.

Great stuff, po!
You know, the song's a little too repetitive but, it's got everything to satisfy me, good beat, nice piano, and great leads. Love the E Piano on this one.
If Aeris used this track to seduce Cloud, there will be action afterwards! Cloud's jaw will be on the floor with his toungue just nailed there by gravity. Tifa, you loose!
Again good job!
