Complete with an atmospheric "sounds of preparation" intro, Jesse gives us this jazzy guitar bonanza of an MGS2 arrangement. I'm glad I heeded his advice to listen to some Pat Metheny Group before I heard this ReMix, 'cause I hear a bit of an influence that I wouldn't have caught otherwise, particular with some of the vocalizing that comes in around 1'13". Vig had some concern regarding whether the mix was appropriate for OCR: "This mix came quite spontaneously; i layed down the acoustic guitar track one night when i was playing in my room. i did all the other recording this week... the mix kind of meanders...i didnt do it with OCR in mind, so i wasnt sure if it was right for OCR. but it came out pretty well, so here it is." - I'd say that while it does meander, it does so musically, thematically, and with focus if not direction. Continuing with our recent theme, this also has a tinge of a prog sound to it. Anyone into more mellow instrumental "exploratory" jazz, esp. guitar-driven, should dig this expansive, flowing arrangement from Vigilante. It takes some risks with the vocalizing, which actually could have been capitalized on more for my money, and doesn't compromise vision for accessibility or a more familiar structure. Good, unique arranging style and a tightly played and mixed end result.
