However, the composition of the song remains strong and the use of more-real sounding instruments does help the piece at times as well. ------------------------------------------------------------- this is so crossbell it hurts. I dunno why I like evo more here, but what jazz stuff I do and don't like is super picky so. #38: Zero no Kiseki - Ardor of the Sun Janus: 8/7.5 NFUN: 7/6.9 Total: 7.5/7.2 (7.35) https://youtube.com/watch?v=gpWePIxbIc4 https://youtube.com/watch?v=A6U29ncde2k Yo this is really neat. Very happy in a way that says "you did it". The intro with the fake chanting was kinda cool too, though the shift was maybe a little surprising. Hmmm, the Evo isn't as bright, but kinda blends in with the intro better. Think I prefer the original but this is close. ------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly I love the really silly voices at the beginning. It's a play song (that isn't Fated Time) so it's nice but just one of a set Non-fake voices so automatically worse. And neither are bad enough that I can say that they're "arduous to listen to" dammit #37: Trails in the Sky the 3rd - The Castle At Dusk hb: 6.5/7 NFUN: 7.7/8.2 Total: 7.1/7.6 (7.35) https://youtube.com/watch?v=8vPGfCFr1fI https://youtube.com/watch?v=nX87a5PBUbQ Eerie and spooky- with the harpischords and strings, this is pretty perfect Halloween music. The Evo version goes for a less spooky vibe and instead captures the feeling of being something like Castlevania's slower, more-string-heavy pieces (or maybe Umineko is a better comparison here), and even though the vibe has changed, it's actually way cooler to listen to. ------------------------------------------------------------- queen alicia is the grandmaster. honestly i could see this as being an evo version of grancel castle that wasn't meant to sound sinister lmao Not a big fan of the bee synths. Pleasantly surprised by the rest. A pretty good take on the original --- You shine, and make others shine just by being near them. <cite>NFUN posted [p:946503084] in Board 8 Ra...
