There, there's a temp full MP3 archive hosted on my mediafire. If bandwidth becomes an issue over time, however, I will remove it.
It clocks in just under 450 mb, and is all that's in the official release except no FLAC.

I cannot install flash on my computer, and so there is no video on the main page. I have modified a little this page on my server to use the HTML5 video tag, so all the users of Firefox 3.5+, Chrome 3+ or Safari 3.1+ can view it without installing a plugin on their computer. The flash-based viewer is shown for users of others browsers.
You can view it here: http://www.linkmauve.fr/ff4.ocremix.org/
The video is transcoded from youtube, but if I could transcode the original video it’ll look a lot better! Also the first shown image can be changed, it’s just a JPEG.
Can you replace the main page by this one? Thanks in advance! And ask if you have any question about the video tag.

Not until after we finish Kirby-ska, dude! Oh, and Magma Heart too. After that, attach whatever helium containers to your ego you want, for now I want you on planet Earth, haha!
Oh, and thanks for those other kind words RitiTroll. I've learned a lot of what to do and what not to do from that song. :nicework:

Metal Mage: Can I say that it actually kind of makes me laugh. The kid acts just like how Palom would if Metal existed there. It's an awesome song in it's own right, but the demands from the kid just make it stand out the most with memory and a bit of a laugh thrown in.
And you, my good person, recognized the point of the song. Props to you, and thanks for the ego inflation.
Now excuse me while I apply pointy objects to make sure it doesn't inflate too much. :tomatoface:

I checked it out. I don't love every song on the soundtrack, but I'm not going to harp on that. I'm going to talk about the songs I like to inflate egos.
The Flying Machine: At first, I was stupid and barely listened past the beginning going "Ohmygodthisisn'tthemaintheme!" The Main theme is one of my favorite songs from this game. It was the first song from this game I heard, as well (specifically the Celtic Moon version). It's probably very high on my list of favorite songs ever! Of course, then I decided to sit and listen to it, figuring it was a very lovely "Into the Darkness" arrangement if nothing else. It doesn't remind me of FFIV, to be honest. It's well done, with the melody very present. I love the almost mechanical feel to it, especially when the "Into the Darkness" theme is played, with each part leading to another. I'm a huge fan of webcomics, so I hope it doesn't hurt the arranger's feeling that this song makes me think of the "Incredible Falling Machine" part of Girl Genius, which unfortunately beat out the lovely map of FFIV as my image of choice only by virtue of the name bringing that image up. Were it names something else, I probably could bring up images of the world of FFIV.
Golbez n' Goblins: I love this one. It is awesome. I think Golbez deserves a break from being all mopey, he should be glad he got a remix that would have been awesome for something like a unique boss battle theme.
Metal Mage: Can I say that it actually kind of makes me laugh. The kid acts just like how Palom would if Metal existed there. It's an awesome song in it's own right, but the demands from the kid just make it stand out the most with memory and a bit of a laugh thrown in.
Fallen Dragoon: The last one I can say I really loved. I'm a bit of a Kain fangirl, since from my first Final Fantasy game, I thought dragoons were awesome, so Kain is the definition of awesome. I especially love him in the DS version, well, when I had it in Japanese, with his voice and how his name was Ka-I-n, so I always felt he was cheated on "Suspicion". Fallen Dragoon really captures how he's like before, during, in-between, during again, and after his brainwashing.
Some songs I found enjoyable, but not "OMG AWESOME" were: Edward's Dream quartet (I also actually kinda like Gil, and pulling it into different styles surprised me in a good way), Almost Fell for the Trojan (Mostly based on the name of the song, but pretty nice listening to the same), and Calcobrena after a night of Dinner and Dancing (I would have liked more of the original theme in it, but still lends an interesting take to this lovely off-kilter waltz)

Why thank you Fishy.
Just goes to show you how you don't need to have 7 minutes to be epic. Just 2, with concentrated muffin-y justice.

I assure you, one take, no editing. :D other than the distortion on the spoken part.
That was epic.

Could we have the lyrics to "Phantom of the Zeromus?" <3
Epicepic opera song.
Thanks :). Lyrics below:
(Choir)
Ahhh! Zeromus!
Ahhh! Zeromus!
(Female Lead)
Take this moment,
Into reflection,
And remember your path
We believe in you,
Supporting your trials,
Please hear our distant prayers for you
Together, we’ll fight for our world,
And protect it from this fiend
(Choir background)
Fire from within
(Zeromus)
Let me show you how to suffer,
My hate is supreme,
And you will not stop me! No!
(Choir background)
Essence born of hate
(Female Lead)
Never we will lay down to
Your sick and twisted lunacy
(Choir background)
Cleansing bloodstained wings
(Zeromus)
Life will cease when all is destroyed,
I will bring the end,
So come and meet your fate!
(Choir background)
Deep beyond Hell’s gates
(F. Lead)
We must bring this dawn
(Zeromus)
Dark will overcome
(F. Lead)
A new hope must become
(Zeromus)
There is no hope now
(F. Lead)
United we are strong
(Zeromus)
I will break those bonds
(F. Lead)
Our prayers will overcome
(F. Lead)/(Zeromus)
And with the havoc that you/I have wrought,
That’s brought the dark that tested our/your hearts,
We won’t let you bring eternal night
(Zeromus)
Try and stop me now
(F. Lead)
Zeromus we won’t go without a fight!
(Zeromus)
Your journey ends here!
(Choir)
Growing stillness,
In the heavens,
Darkness deeper,
Than the night,
Forcing all to,
Flee or perish,
No one leaves,
This place alive,
Come within now,
Desolation,
Mirror surface,
Bathed in black,
Endless silence,
Through the terror,
Perfect hope,
Begins to crack
Ahhh! Zeromus!
Ahhh! Zeromus!
(F. Lead)
Together, we’ll fight for our world,
And protect it from this fiend
(Choir background)
Fire from within
(Zeromus)
Let me show you how to suffer,
My hate is supreme,
And you will not stop me! No!
(Choir background)
Essence born of hate
(F. Lead)
Never we will lay down to,
Your sick and twisted lunacy
(Choir)
Cleansing bloodstained wings
(Zeromus)
Life will cease when all is destroyed,
I will bring the end,
So come and meet your fate!
(Choir)
Deep beyond Hell’s gates
(F. Lead)
We must bring this dawn
(Zeromus)
Dark will overcome
(F. Lead)
A new hope must become
(Zeromus)
There is no hope now
(F. Lead)
United we are strong
(Zeromus)
I will break those bonds
(F. Lead)
Our prayers will overcome
(F. Lead)/(Zeromus)
And with the havoc that you/I have wrought,
That’s brought the dark that tested our/your hearts,
We won’t let you bring eternal night,
(Zeromus)
I must stop this light!
(F. Lead)
Zeromus we won’t go without a fight!
(Zeromus)
No! Get Back! No!
