DJ Carbunk1e's first submission is of FF7's "You Can Hear the Cry of the Planet" in a Techno/Industrial style, keeping the 12/8 time sig but changing the key. Things intro quietly with the ubiquitous bell pad and some strings, but some great high-pitched percussion and low rushing noise effects come in at 0'25", leading up to the pick-up at 1'01" where the drums and well-constructed filter sweeping synths and additional grinding synth effects make their grand entrance. A good piano break at 2'02" (though the piano sound used is a bit hollow and tinny), after which a monoglide synth joins in over the same piano bit at 2'26" - probably my favorite bit of the mix, which uses its five minutes plus wisely by then segueing back into the more industrial portions (same synth gets a solo without piano at 4'26", at which point the very groovalicious drumline is more exposed for your appreciation). At the end, you can actually hear the vibrato - actually sounds like a real fast leslie speaker effect - that's being applied to the piano, which is a nice touch. Though there are rough spots, this is a very mature initial submission that shows multiple talents at play and is very impressive - kudos to Carbunk1e, check it out.

Honestly, I wasn't really feeling the start of the song. Sounds
lofi/lossy at the start, like some high freqs were lost in the
process and the mids have some pretty strong resonant parts at
times. Some pops and clicks (maybe intentional) throughout as
well.
I was about ready to write the song off, when in the middle things
started getting more interesting. Lead around 2:26 took me by
surprise and drew me back into the song as a whole. This is what's
keeping it on my playlist I think.
I think OA said it well, the production might be weak, but some
good arrangement here and a few instruments/nuances that bring up
the overall level of the song.

Despite sounding a bit lossy, this is a pretty awesome arrangement.
Good source to begin with, I always loved that track, and the
arrangement of it is pretty great. Synths and piano, a cool meter,
plus good percussion. Production though is pretty weak, and
prevents this from being really a standout track. I'd love to hear
a version with cleaner production.

hell yeah this kicks ***

I agree (not fully). Except everything before 2 minute mark isn't
as great. In fact only the synth and piano make the mix what it is,
obviously. Definitely seeking a higher quality version! Carbunk1e
is the one who got me into Reason (I wonder if he remembers) so
that requires some thanks.

There's no way I can fairly express the greatness of this mix...
absolutely AWESOME!!! I think my ears will never ever hear
something better!
DJ Carbunk1e, you turned a piece of heaven into music!
- ocremixfan on April 15, 2006
This is earcandy for me, this track got now a much more tougher
appeal, much variation among the instruments, arrangement=awesome!
carbunk1e, you sure did it this time.
Got a little surprised when the mix went over for some techno when
the synth waltzed in at the end and then got paired up with the
piano, and I love piano, thanks fer that.

I tink DJP desribes the nuances of this mix best in his front page
review. This is a remix that I will keep in my playlist forever, it
covers alot of ground in it's scant 5 minutes. However a
re-mastering session would be greatly appreciated, and would only
serve to improve a superb first submission from one of OCR's
greats, Mr DJ Carbunk1e.

This song is so inhumanely underrated. Nothing anyone says does
this song justice. I have to delve into another language to
properly describe it. It is 'gahro' as the D'ni say. It roughly
translates into 'great', though it's far beyond that. They use it
to describe the vastness of the universe, the beauty of a planet,
and the feeling of love. I have only used this word to describe one
other thing in my life.
Carbunk1e, you deserve some sort of medal or award for this song.
It is beautiful beyond measure.
- Mattrello on October 15, 2004
This is a beatiful piece. I love it. The way it starts out so calm
is really beautiful, and then when it begins to pick up at 0:49 is
definitely effective. And the way it becomes calm again at 2:01 was
definitely effective, leading into the more upbeat sound at 2:24.
At 4:25 when the music goes back to that spacey sound is really
neat, and then leading into harmony with the piano, and then ending
with just the piano was quite effective.
This is definitely an inspiring piece (thus, it goes on my
inspiration playlist ^^; ;). Dare I say, this would have been a
good piece to play in the final showdown between Cloud and
Sephy-sama?
Great job!

Yep. This was used in "Zombie!" not "Zombie?". Listening now... Its
not a bad song. I detect heavy static, but that could be on my end.
Whoa! Got past intro. Yay for this song! Download the newage that
