Final Fantasy fans! Check out the EDM remix to the Chocobo song! Rave!! Hope you enjoy! ORIGINAL: MY VERSION:

Hi, Sampled the score March of the Dreadnoughts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV4lbn29T_c from Final Fantasy XIII. Easily the worst Final Fantasy game but has some good music scores. I wasn't really going for anything the music kind of arranged itself. Has a poppy and clubby beat. Doesn't sound too bad but of course feedback and criticism are always welcome. I think I would like to optimize the sound I have so any suggestions will be considered. Enjoy. Thanks for listening.

Hi, I sampled the first few bars from Final Fantasy X-2 Theme Song Wind Crest The Three Tails (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQm2dO0qI5g) with FL Studio. Was aiming for a new soul sound with epiano and bass. Near the end of the song it kind of gets away from it because the song transition felt like it need something slightly different so added a some synthesizers. I don't think it sounds too bad but good criticism is welcome. I would like some feed back. Enjoy. Thanks for listening.

Let's take a seat, children, and discuss the severe lack of FFXIV music on OCRemix.org Now, some will argue "90% of the music from this game is just remixed versions of previous games", to which I would say "Well what about the 10% that isn't?" Personally, I'd like to see some alternate takes on the different Primal Battles. Shiva with pixietricks? Yes please. Titan ala NekoFrog? Take my money! Answers Dragonsong War Any of the specific dungeon themes, as there's generally FOUR songs per dungeon (Background music, Background music during a fight, first and second Bosses, and the final boss), are also perfect for arrangements. Playing around with different dungeon's music and arranging them would be really neat to hear.) There's plenty of opportunities for really interesting and great arrangements in this game, and it makes me kinda sad that no one has jumped on it in the years the game has been out. And new music is added every three months! It's ever expanding!

I think this soundtrack is one of the best around, yet it has so few remixes. Why is that? Is it the difficulty of producing quality tracks based on the original arrangement? Any of the awesome tracks from the game would be great, but I do have a few favorites among them: Who is up for it? :3

Hi. I made a little remix of FFCC, a incredible game. Please enjoy

As iconic as the Final Fantasy series soundtrack is, I've always made the argument that its hard to judge if you've played the games because you have to ask yourself; "Was this song REALLY that good or was it the associated emotion from the games plot that makes me like it?" The soundtrack is also highly derivative. Jenova's theme "J-E-N-O-V-A" from Final Fantasy VII is clearly, at the very least, "inspired" by the ending theme to the film "Blade Runner", which was scored by Vangelis. The motiv from Sepiroth's theme "Those Chosen By The Planet" sounds eerily similar to parts of "Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary" (a synthesizer version was used as the intro to Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation of "A Clockwork Orange") And now I think I've found yet another one: I know the intro in this song is almost identical to a final fantasy song, but I don't remember which song or game. Anyone have a clue?

Hey there! Nice to meet you all, my name's Alex, long time lurker actually. I've stumbled upon OCReMix when I discovered the Voices of the Lifestream album. It was then, inspired by such amazing work by so many talented people, that I decided I too wanted to start producing and composing music, even though I didn't have any background in music, it seemed like a good moment to start. Almost three years in, I've grown confident enough to submit something here with serious intentions. The track is an orchestral arrangement I made of a Final Fantasy VII track, "On That Day, 5 Years Ago", which is one of my most favorite tracks ever from Nobuo Uematsu. I'm not sure if it's good enough though, as it's written in a genre that is quite outside of my comfort zone, I'm more an electronic/action sound design, but since I'd definitely love to become better with orchestras I tried to make it this way. Any feedback from both the mods and the fellow composers of the forum would be more than greatly appreciated! Thank you so much, Alex Links to the remix & to the original track: Remix - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2tJmHuW7Z8 Original Track - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEZNywlt_gM

Ahead On Our Way A little remaster of my favorite FF5 tune!

Hello everyone! My first post on this forum. I only recently found out about is forum, can you believe that? I want to share with you a cover (yes, cover, not really a remix) from FFIX. This cover contains the songs "The place I'll return to someday" and "Terra" (by Nobuo Uematsu). For "The place I return to someday" I could not find a high quality recorder ensemble version of this song yet, so I decided to give it a try. I tried to mimic the original, using real instruments (recorders) instead. For the second part of the cover; "Terra", I played around a bit. Although I stayed close to the original arrangement and feel of the song (I think), I did make some changes. I would really appreciate it if you could provide me with your feedback.. any feedback. I realize I probably won't be able to submit this as a remix (as it sounds close to the original), but that was not my intention anyway. (The cover was done before I discovered OCR). I hope you enjoy it! Best, Impluo

Alright, so it's been a long time since I've been here on OC Remix but I thought now would be a good time to come back with some of my latest remixes to see what others think. Starting off this time is a orchestra medley of the battle themes from Final Fantasy 1-9 so I hope to hear your feedback and thoughts on this medley that I put a lot of work into. Please let me know any thoughts you guys have! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0hHvSRXESU

So for the past year, I've been "trying to find a new voice" as a musician. It just seems like for the past half decade, my whole artistic career was hitting rock bottom. I just wasn't satisfied with things I was creating. Then I had a revelation. I was only composing music and creating other art for my own benefit and it wasn't for anyone else to really take seriously or enjoy. So basically in a nutshell, I'm composing for other people and it has been a profitable business. Here's my latest original FF style track which can be used free of charge for any game. http://soundcloud.com/aarparmd/a-wild-creature-appears Or you can find other stuff I'm working on at http://soundcloud.com/aarparmd And to all the haters: you have no idea how high I can fly.

Heavensward has been out for a month now and after taken in it's wonderful soundtrack I've come here to make a few request! First up Ravana's Theme (quest titled Lord of the Hive may or may not be official track title, ost won't be released for a few more months sadly) is a two part theme. The second part of the theme shifts in at half health. That occurs around the 5:20 mark. Would love to hear a prog rock, or metal remix of these themes ..or heck just a metal remix of the second phase theme would be awesome. If needed, I could link to the official lore forums which contains a thread with the lyrics. Next up is the THANKFULLY new Dungeon Boss Theme. This track is heard in all new dungeons, with the exception of the final main scenario dungeon. Again, a metal remix would be appreciated. Though I'd be happy with any other style And finally last request is still kind of a spoiler for those who've yet to complete the main scenario quest so spoiler tags will be in use. My last request is a metal remix of the epic conclusion to the 3.0 patch, Knights of the Round. Well technically King Thordan and the Heavens Ward If you can't tell..been on a bit of a metal binge, but if anyone thinks they can remix these in any other genre I'd still love to hear them . Thank you for your time.

Hey! I've been trying to learn more about the overall process of recording, EQ'ing, mixing, using virtual instruments and mastering. Still very amateurish but I thought I'd share and see what advice people might have and hope they enjoy. For this track I was going for something a little more moody than the original, which can be found here. Youtube: SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/logan-r-dowell/on-the-other-side-of-the-mountain
