ReMix:Final Fantasy VI "Oldschool Opening" 1:50

A quick stroll down Terra lane. There's no big statement here that hasn't been stated plenty of times before, but I still find this to be a strong version of the source.

The chiptune approach sounds great to my ears; it's reminiscent of the flurry of retro chip-infused mainstream music these days, though not quite AS professional sounding. But in this mix's defense, it does have those Arkanoid samples.

This lacks really standout ideas, and I also wouldn't have minded a repeat of the main melody just to give it some staying power, but in all it serves me well enough. Nice job.

Decent interpretation, and I dig the chiptune sound, but I think after hearing Schab's Terra chiptune track, anything else kindof pales.

Decent for the time, but it seems pretty basic nowadays.

This isn't my favorite remix of the Tina theme, but definately original.

:caugh: Terra :hack:

Cool that at least one Terra remix has the melody when you walk that ice field to Narche. The synths, well, they weren´t professional, but Nicholai here still gave it a feel that somehow makes me like this mix. I don´t really get the deal with the title, what has this mix in common with a oldschool opening?

This isn't my favorite remix of the Tina theme, but definately original. Plus sampling Arkanoid was priceless.

I liked it. I'd like to hear more songs like this, actually.

10/13 (I'm biased towards FF6)

Not bad. I always enjoy chiptune, 8-bit regression mixes. It's kind of a stroll down memory lane, only with something new. It had a little bit of a sudden end, but that doesn't drag the song down too much. I like this remix.

OK guys well i am tired but song this may sound funky. Avg. mix here but hey if you like FF6 you can't really go wrong

Wow I was in a grumpy mood when I posted my thoughts on this mix. Good thing I did enjoy some of it. I must say, much respect for anybody who can take the critizism and turn it into inspiration. Dispite my thoughts, you obviously have a an ability to please a majority. Keep remixing Nicholai.

Really nice and anthemic, reminds me of Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream. No such thing as too much reverb on a track like this!!!

Yet another great Terra's Theme, and with that crazy GameBoy-esque sound. I find myself wishing it were longer.

Ooh, more in this style? Sounds good to me. I don't think anyone's done Tal Tal Heights from The Legend of Zelda IV: Link's Awakening - probably since it's so obscure - but hey, I'd like to hear it, certainly in this chiptune style. Good work here.

Pretty interesting. All I think of is Arkanoid though, which is possibly a good thing. I suppose add it to the 80+ FF series mixes on the site... which one to choose from?

I recently registered in these forums, and thought i'd drop a line or two on your comments.

If I were to do more chipcovers, what would you like to hear a cover of?

Welcome to the board, Nicholai

I really like chiptune remakes of music(not already chiptuned of course), but this was extra special. It wasn't all 8-bit flat-synth waves, but it had some synth bell sounds too, and the rhythm... OOOOhhhh, I'm in love

If I were to choose one, I would want a pop song to be remixed into a chiptune(like virt's thong song remake) Well, since it is videogames, I would want something from Final Fantasy 10. Some users on this board and others say that music from newer games can't be re-arranged to anything new, because they're already as good as they could get. So I say "de"mix them as chiptunes, lol!

Also, I make original music on MIDI.... sorry, I've plugged this too much!

First of all, I loved the critics, both good and bad. It's always fun when I get a opinion of some work of mine

Ginnsu: I used no "guitars", and the tune was ment to sound synthetic. That was kinda the whole idea. Thanks for the criticism though! You go for more acoustic music eh?

The rest: Thank you very much for your positive response. It might help me doing more oldschool covers!

If I were to do more chipcovers, what would you like to hear a cover of?

Pretty nice... all I have to do is imagine that FF6 was remade for the original NES and that I'm playing it
