NFUN 10/26/20 12:40:27 PM #337:	#69: Ao no Kiseki - True Bonds Haste: 8.8/8.8 dowolf: 5/5 Total: 6.9/6.9 (6.9) https://youtube.com/watch?v=pdDDBdTDKV0 https://youtube.com/watch?v=GbRMc3_1Dkw Sounds a bit like TIfa's theme at the start (but ultimately, this track is way better!). Very delicate. The harp countermelody is gorgeous near the start. I LOVE the harmonic direction at 0:39 heading into foreign keys.. how poignant. Love how it thickens with the big string section later... ahhhh, how heavenly. The flute and oboe sections make for a sweet/bouncy/happy contrast to the heavier stuff around it :), like it could have been taken straight out of, like, PLvs.PW, or something. EVO version: Just like the original... the differences are minor. I like the use of Bassoon at 2:07. ------------------------------------------------------------- makes me nostalgic for FF8, which is... weird. Not sure how I feel about the playfulness in the Evo version Call 1-800-888-8888-8888 #68: Trails in the Sky SC - Shrine of Aidios azuarc: 7.7/6.8 deo: 7.4/5.8 Total: 7.55/6.3 (6.925) https://youtube.com/watch?v=4WH51t8SNmU https://youtube.com/watch?v=KbylC1HSsEk Original is a surprisingly beautiful piece. What makes it work, with the lone piano, is stomped on by the evo version, though. The backing strings are okay at times, but then there's stretches with brass? No no no. This treatment would work for a more uptempo outspoken rendition of the song, but the mood of this piece is somber and contemplative and these instruments here -- other than a one-measure harp cameo -- are too much. ------------------------------------------------------------- damn you evo... --- You shine, and make others shine just by being near them. <cite>NFUN posted [p:946322099] in Board 8 Ra...
