Very alternative percussion on this FF7 ReMix from newcomer Ceracryst - love to see people trying different things, and the drum track here is very unique. Sort of a combination between industrial and hip-hop - it makes (or breaks, depending on your tendencies) the track, adding the right amount of attitude and style to the fairly simple pads + bells arrangement that sits on top of it. There's some cool whispering samples, and then at 2'54" a double-time drum groove layer comes in and the vibes double-up and do counter-rhythms, building to a nice climax that ends on a sustain - this has very much the feeling of a storm that is at first forming, then getting more chaotic, then breaking (during the major-key interlude) to sunlight temporarily, then letting loose a torrential downpour but with sunlight still shining down. Really reminded me of weather, in other words :) It's free-form enough to be interesting, but not random, and though it leans towards minimalism, all elements have been chosen carefully and superbly. I've listened to this four times now and it gets better each time. I was a little lukewarm the first time - you have to be in the right mindset - but for fans of FF7 and mellow, peculiar music, this definitely comes recommended.
