I don't tend to like Rock/Metal "remixes" a lot of times, because they aren't very original. They are mainly just covers of the original source because they have very little variation or differentiation from what the original is, basically just the instrumentation is different. I am looking for actual remixes, not covers when it comes to the battle theme.

I do use Aire Tam Break by Fishy for my boss battle theme, it is very well done and has a lot of originality. Besides that rap remix one I posted, I also like to use Nemesis Theory for a battle theme:

Yeah I definitely check Overclocked Remix first when I am looking for good remixes. Not to say it's the only place to find good quality interpretations, but it's the best starting point usually.

Yeah OCR has some really nice stuff.

I really like this one:



It's not that I'm a big jazz fan but I really like some of the jazzy remixes out there, they fit really well with some FF themes.

some more jazz, this is a bit different; a pretty a original light version of this theme considering it's usually remixed/covered in a metal style

Does the duel theme count as aa battle theme?

I really like some of the jazzy remixes too. Here's one of my favorite FF7 remixes I've ever heard:



Not jazz at all, but I really love it. Really makes the song so much emotion for me for some reason.. and I don't even really care for Tifa's theme in it's original form.

^That is indeed pretty neat, I like how it keeps bulding up, it does give more emotion to the theme.
