Good remix of the FF1 Battle Theme. The sounds works but they are not perfect in my opinion. Also the rendering of the song is not optimal. But it is still very good.

It is and has been a great tune since it was originally composed for Final Fantasy, on the NES. This is a great 'rock' remix of a great old tune. The use of the base at the beggining was great, and having the distorted guitars be played over the realistic drum beats was really well done. It really is a fine song, remade well with modern instruments, but since the tune is not original, I can't really score the song too high for music. The intro is missing something I remember from the game. But I could be mistaken. Most of the samples sound good, but the distorted guitars are a little too melodic sounding, a little too fake. He took pretty good advantage of the surround effects of Impulse Tracker, and the panning was certainly sufficient. Although for the most part, the technical aspects were well done, I still can't score him too high on that either since there are only 7 patterns used. Then again, he gets the whole song, all 42 seconds, in those seven. It was intended to be played in IT (I would assume) so as to loop infinitely, so it sounds a little funny just trailing off in ModPlug.
