Oh! I love that you used some piratey Hans Zimmer. Now that I think of it...they do sound very Nero-y.

Great and well thought out mix.

Maybe Nero is secretly a pirate. XD

Both those selections just sorta...spoke to me. They both seem to exude the whole dark, ominous, tortured soul aura. That and when I saw the Narada onscreen for the first time, I was like "OMG SPACE KRAKEN. LOL."

Heh.

Thank you! I appreciate it. I gotta say, I sat here and banged my head on the desk a good while in the act of trying to figure out how to arrange these songs. LOL.

Thanks for the comment! ^^

SPACE KRAKEN FTW! oh man. I love that.

I totally understand the agony that goes hand in hand with making mixes. I will sit for hours playing the songs over and over to make sure I've got them in the right order. OCD much? Maybe. I just want my mixes to make sense. Hehe.

LMAO. I YELLED IT OUT LOUD, IN MY MIND WHEN I SAW IT. XDDD

Ah, the Narada. In all its pointy...superfluous...POINTYNESS. :D

LMAO OMG I DO THAT TOO. Like, "This song should go here--BUT WAIT THAT DOESN'T FLOW RIGHT." XDDD I think you have to be OCD to a certain extent to partake in fanmixing. My trouble with this one was trying to balance all the random instrumental-type dark stuff with, you know, loudass heavy metal and such. Which ultimately resulted in this being divided into two parts to spare me from further brain abuse trying to get them all to flow in ONE part.

><;;; Overanalysis. Hi, my name is Eva, and I HAVE A PROBLEM.

*applauds* You have outdone yourself yet AGAIN. ROFL How do you do it?? XDD

P.S. Next you should make a Nero/Spock mix. ;)

Have I been exponentially outdoing myself, all the while unawares?! Wow. That's talent I didn't know I had. XDDD

Heh. I was rather pleased with this. I felt after the slightly-flattering crack mix, I owed him something serious. Which came out WAAAY SRS. I must say, though, I'm pleased with the way the front cover came out. It was a royal pain in the arse to make. XDDDD

NERO/SPOCK. OH, IT KILLS ME. XD Song suggestions, out of curiosity? LMAO.

You have many talents, bb. I have noticed this. *nods*

It's mah-velous, dah-ling! The cover is great, too, because it has the right amount of lens flares. ;D

I don't have any ideas, really. I was just enabling you. TEEHEE

Ooooo, these sound delightfully evil, destructive, and creepy. I'm downloading them to do home repair and cleaning to-the rage in the songs always seems to push me to work faster.

Hmm. "--delightfully evil, destructive, and creepy." Yep, that about sums up Nero, minus the "completely batshit insane" part. XDDDD

Haha, AWESOME. XD Finally, my powers have been used to aid someone in doing something constructive. LMAO.

Hope you enjoy the mix. Thanks for commenting!
