Frankly I'm surprised this one hasn't gotten a bit more screen time. Very, very well done. Catchy, funky, fun to listen to. Respect.

At first I was like, "wait, this song wasn't in the Super Mario Land movies..."
Then I finally figured out he slowed it down and I was like "Lightbulb!"
Anyway, good stuff. Very good stuff.

The Super Mario Land series was one of my favourites on here but I didn't pay attention to where this particular song had come from. I recognized Slayer in it, and that was all. Anyway, always thought it was funky and cool, so you get a 5 and a 9 from me.

It made me giggle furiously. I'll take that. Nicely done!

I think it's a sign I've been using too much Slayer that I can hear it so instantly/clearly in other people's work. Regardless, good work! However, I think it's a little too low in the main part for my taste. It makes it sound just a little bit muddled.
Well done, though! Keep it up!

ParagonX9 is, indeed, made of win. Sir? Mmm, not exactly. :P
Many props to you, Paragon, as always.

I like it a lot, and I do like that you've gone out of your way to do something different, but I wouldn't call this my favourite of your works - I agree with the reviewer below me. It gets a little bit repetitive, not necessarily in melody but in style. What I find with a lot of your other work is that while this consistency and lack of crazy variation is still present, it really works because the music itself is less subtle.
I like the approach, though, and it's very calm. Nice job!
Cheers,

It really pains me to say this, because FF7 ranks near the bottom on my list of favourite Final Fantasy games.....
But I grudgingly admit that the fight theme was pretty kickass, and you have very effectively brought Slayer into craziness with this masterpiece. From one artist to another, kudos.

It's an unorthodox but very compelling arrangement. The instrumentation has a certain classic quality to it that I really like, and the melody is nice. If anything I might call it... well, not exactly repetitive, but it could use a little bit more variety. Still, you're off to a great start with your work, so it seems, so keep it up!
Cheers to ya! =)

Thanks. Yeah I'm slowly trying to break my repetitive soundscape routine and change things up... thanks a ton for the review!
