johnfn: Yes, it's a good melody. It has really good finishing touches. The vibrato, the glides, all of the little things really make this one go.

I would have liked more "distant" drums with reverb, and made them a little more sparse. But it's still really good.

Misael.K: Haunting but lovely. There were some really interesting sensations. Really liked the downward trills around 2:42.

Tompapella: Slap bass, catchy piano, great marimba. Secret of Mana sounds, I love them. I like this song too.

A2Z - Whilst listening at work, this really stood out to me. It got the creepy vibe down, a lot of nice elements that work well together. Parts of it reminded me of the Forest Temple in Ocarina of Time.

Magzero - This one was creepy too. Creepy awesome, that is.

MisaelK - Less creepy but fantastically mystical. Great stuff. On a side note: I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed the movie, "Lady in the Water." I know I'm in the minority on this.

Also, I would like to list every other track under "I ALSO LIKED" because every track was pretty much flippin awesome.

What I liked a lot:

A-zu-ra: Short but very nice. At the end sounds like it could evolve into some A-zu-ra-style dnb.

Ducks: Very atmospheric! The simple sounds create a very mesmerizing effect.

johnfn: beautiful indeed! just arrived from a moment of crisis, just arrived at the beach, this is the tranquil aftermath.

Magzero: the short glitches sound spectacular. Very dark.

MandraSigma: this is very enjoyable! perhaps too short!

Tomapella: great SNES sounds, great composition!

Trancient: an epic journey into another world.
