ReMix: Tyrian 'Composition in Q'

Our first ReMix from the 2D PC shooter Tyrian comes from newcomer Disturbed, and is a very classy acoustic piano arrangement to boot. I had initially attributed this game's soundtrack to Alexander Brandon alone, but the well-known composer of Unreal and Unreal Tournament himself informed us via the review thread for this mix that portions of the Tyrian score, this piece included, were actually composed by Andreas Molnar. So there's some background for ya :) Disturbed has taken the source material and created an emotive, flowing piano arrangement with very subtle string accompaniment. What I specifically enjoyed about this arrangement is that it gets progressively better, with some lovely trills towards the end. There are some peculiar intonations at times, but the whole thing was played live in one take, so intentional or not, the overall performance is impressive. Not your typical shmup music - very dramatic, melancholy, and nostalgic. Perfect for a rainy afternoon, this is highly cinematic and would fit seamlessly into the dramatic tragedy of your choice, during the denouement after we learn of a primary character's death or what not. Unusual source material and a unique, somber, enjoyable ReMix from Disturbed.
