This is a song I've been wanting to do for a long time, I'm so happy to finally be finished with it! This is my remake of the Final Fantasy 7 Prelude. Enjoy and if you vote please take the time to review it as well. Thanks!! :D

This is my first time reviewing like this. I hope the review will turn out okay.

INTRO
The start is really good. The ladders work well with this piece, and the calmness you start with works well as an intro. It gets a bit boring after a while though. To an unexperienced listener like me it sounds as if the part from 0:00-0:48 is almost the same ladder all the time. If you could start with putting that extra instrument at 0:49 in at half of the current intro (0:24) It wouldn't sound as repetive.

GENERAL SOUND
You can easily count the amount of FF games I've played on one hand, so I'm not familiar with the kind of music. I've never heard this song before either, so I had to search for the original.
I like how you made the music sound a bit fuller. The extra instrument you put in from the start fits just perfect with the whole song.
Because you made it sound full from the start and didn't put that many instruments in later the surprise of orchestral instruments wasn't as much as in the original. It didn't make it worse than the original though. Just softer. I think it would me more suitable as background music now than it did before.

ENDING
A compliment here on how good it loops. The original didn't loop as well as this. It's not too different from the rest of the song, so not much to say about this.

OTHER REMARKS/OVERALL
Even though it lacks the climax of the original, I really enjoyed listening to this piece. The only thing you may need to watch out for is that parts don't drag too long, or it will get boring. You did a great job though. It's not easy to make a special song out of an intro.

Thank you so much!

I like it, makes me wanna create a prelude remix too because of how awesome the ff theme is. Sadly I can't play the piano so well, so I guess that is out of option. Did you record your own performance?

Rinibra responds:

Thank you for reviewing :) I wish I could say I did but I didn't.

Urpik!

FF7 has been my all time fav for so many years now. No series can beat it..
Good job on getting all the notes down.
The piano and strings etc.. sound alil cheap. FL default presets like..
You should work on your mastering alittle bit. Use some different instruments, and I think this song will sound a LOT better.
Over all though, it was very good. Very well done! Keep up the good work.

Thanks!! XD

Awesome!

You're getting really good! This is a beautiful piece! I love those strings in the background. The piano work was....AMAZING. Can't wait to hear more from you!

Rinibra responds:

aww, Thanks so much!! XD lol

this isn't a remix

it sounds more like a remake rather than a remix.
you should've added more of your own composition to it

Rinibra responds:

yeah, you're right. I was going back and forth on whether to call it a remake or remix but I just may go and add more to it. Thanks!
