Originally, Uematsu had planned to use CD quality music with vocal performances to take advantage of the console's audio capabilities but found that it resulted in the game having much longer loading times for each area. It's not like switching from rap to polka, as the two styles (and most electronica variants) have more in common, but it's definitely noticeable and, in my opinion, works quite well.The musical score of Final Fantasy VII was composed, arranged, and produced by Nobuo Uematsu, who had served as the sole composer for the six previous Final Fantasy games.



This change-up definitely adds some textural variety, extends the life of the mix, and like bLiNd himself says, it makes things a bit more interesting. This is an airy, open arrangement with cool, layered/delayed vocals that have a lot of verb on them, for an angelic, floating feeling, contrasting against pressing breakbeats, percolating synth patterns, and later on the edgier dubstep textures Jordan mentioned. [Collective " ADamn good bday present, I'd say while I'm in the camp that was less enamored of FF13 as a game (for me, the storytelling & English voice-acting were very problematic), I was definitely digging the music, and I'm actually surprised it's taken as long as it has to show up on these shores. Congrats to Ashleigh, and, of course, to my beautiful wife. She is getting married next month (June 2011), so her name is changing from James to Coryell. The original song has a few lyrics, but I took the liberty of changing them (there are some similarities though) and Ashleigh pretty much belted them out in less than an hour. This song's lyrics are to express the hope we have for our future together. You are the best thing that ever happened to me and I can thank OC ReMix for that and God for giving me the gifts that lead you to me. I think the combination works better, since most dubstep can get boring and overbearing after a while.Īshleigh is back for this one. I don't think there is enough dubstep on OCR either, so I added that in there too. Can't remix it as trance though, had to do drum n' bass. Probably my favorite song on the soundtrack. I have been wanting to remix this song from FF13 ever since the game came out. Yeah, we JUST posted a bLiNd track, but he also JUST finished this brand-spankin' new FF13 electronica mix, our first, in time for his wife Jade's birthday, so we jumped through some hoops to get this out SAME DAY.
