You really know good videogame music. You're really creative with the remixes, not cookie cutter at all. Again, good job!!
Reviews for "ChronoTrigger: Magus' Mid"
Not bad.
I still need to play the game to make a comparison, but it's pretty good.
I'm used to somewhat faster themes, but this works out pretty well.
Hmmm...It's interesting...but strange.
It's not the worst one I've heard; but of course not the best either.
One of the biggest things that caught me was the first sound/instrument after the bells; and I figured, "Hey, this guy knows how to instill fear." Then the second set of "bells?" afterward further forwarded your goal, sort of like a childish fear (like from F.E.A.R. the game, or something from the Freddy or Jason series; hell even Chuckie), but then the sounds after that just made it seem to push away from the goal of making it creepy.
Not to mention that it repeats too much like from the original theme (unless you intended that). The percussion ("drums") seems to be very off; and I think if you wanted a more fearful/creepy sound into it, which honestly, after the third sound you put in, took that feeling away.
If you wanted a more warped/twisted version, I'd say this one would definitely take the cake; however, since you intended your creepiness, I give you an A for effort, but a B for task completion, per say.
My ruling

8/10

I don't discourage you from remaking it or continuing; infact, I do the opposite if you decide to remake it again or continue. While I've found some amazing remixes of this theme, for the purpose you tried to fulfill, it seemed not to be of the best completion. (I usually see most horror movies and laugh the fuck out of them, but if you want creepy or scary, anything of that nature, I know many solid examples.)

It's interesting you say all that, because for a mix as old as this I'm quite flattered it's as high up on your grade scale as it is. This was probably about the sixth or seventh mix I ever made, and I knew very little about the program or mixing in general. Many thanks for the depth of your review!

bitium-ribbon responds:
I'll consider your suggestions, but PM me with specifics - how would you change the start? What would you put in/take out, etc. etc.
And as for the thunder... meh. I think I'll keep that on a personal satisfaction level.
