Dj StarChild's second ReMix is very different from his initial Zelda 64 offering, and I would venture to say that it's a definite improvement as well. With a more refined feeling that has less of a 'default Fruityloops' feel to it, StarChild's take on this track from Chrono Trigger is some dramatic, sweeping light techno. Starting with piano on melody and (uniquely) bass and a ride cymbal, a cool snare pattern intros into the more established drum track. However, and this is key: the drums are minimalistic and never get in the way. They never even borderline on overkill and are always tasteful, subtle, and varied, which is incredibly important on a mix like this. The floaty, light feeling of the mix is enhanced because of this, which seems to be the feel StarChild was going for. Extensive usage of delay (which always makes for the easy "let the delay fade out" ending that I'm guilty of myself and which works nicely here) also makes the arrangement seem lighter than air. Some of the key changes are a bit odd and do break this feeling to a degree, but they also prevent the mix from becoming too monochrome in its tone colors. I dig it - light, relatively simple new age with a beat, but no element seems out of place and the flow works well.
