Final Fantasy

Dale North, who you might remember from the amusing ChuChu Rocket Mix, emailed me saying he had just bought some new synths and made this Final Fantasy medley mix, that seamlessly covers lots of songs from different FF games. Well, after listening, I'd say he made some excellent purchases, as this is one of the nicer orchestral mixes I've heard, and does a nice job with dynamics and transitions . . this is a no-brainer download for ANY FF fan, but I recommend a listen even if you're not, as it's a great example of symphonic remixing & arranging.

*is in love with this track*

This is just BEAUTIFUL! The various themes work wonderfully together, and the transition from one to the other is seemless and perfect. Not over the top either, the instruments and mixing is lovely. Overall a beautiful piece and one of my favourite tracks.

I'd go into more detail but there are just no words. :)

Pretty good, and good samples overall, though when the choir was exposed it was a little shaky.
Super oldschool but still worth listening to.

.......sorry zoned out there for a moment.
This is a wonderful piece of art and fit's to the theme of the Final Fantasy series. (which is, love, hope and companionship.) I wouldn't be surprised in Nobou himself came and asked if he could use this for a FF game.

Stunning, beautiful, magnificent...Many words for such a remix, but only one word can describe such a masterpiece. Unfortunately we haven´t discovered that word yet, but when we will, I will make a new review and put it in there, that I will. Although there are alot of songs it doesn´t get overstuffed with melodies that goes into each other and...well...it sure wouldn´t sound like this.
But one thing hit me when I saw the original songs:
"What the...!? Noone of these are from FF1?" This remix would more fit in like a mix from FF6 or FF7, but not as FF1.
(Review #200, WOOOO)

I have two loves...potato chips...and this song. :cry: . I love it 10+/10

This is truly a thing of beauty, sir. Kudos.

This remix needs to be re-recorded with a full symphony...it deserves this much. As it stands now, it is one of the most memorable and recognisable FF remixes in my playlist. It covers most of the series to it's date and does so in such a way that makes one remember all the joys of playing the games that the tunes came from. This remix mixes themes from several parts of the older series in such a way that nearly makes me cry for being what now seems to be old. I'll listen to this to the day I die, and always remember these past few years when it was new to me.

This is very good Medley. If you search on the dictionary the word Medley you find the description of this song.
I love especially the Opera Theme (Oh my hero, far away now, will I ever see your smile/Love goes away, like night into day. It's just a fading dream... JUST WONDERFULLY BEAUTIFUL :wink: !!!) and the Terra theme. I don't like the starting theme, but all the song is very pleasant... Wow! Lots of compliments to Dale North 8) !

- frashpikass on October 1, 2004
this is truely buttiful, And, I'd love it if somebody did a symphonic of the main theme's of each game. (Aeris, Cloud, Protecting My Devotion, Freya's Theme)

- Neonlare on September 9, 2004
Beautiful remix...and no, there isn't Aeris' theme (I don't get why people confuse the Aeris and Aria theme with each other...they sound similar, but the melodies are noticeibly different)
Must here for any FF fan!

- maplejet on March 18, 2004
:D Simply amazing! This is an awesome mix, and of some of my fav. FF songs too! Great transitions between tracks, excellent use of layering, and a true sense of the actual tune. I must say that this is a mix that no collection should be without. 10/10 Keep up the good work!
