This is a Chrono Trigger arrangement prompt. If we were to tally up which soundtracks get the most arrangements in our weeklies, Chrono Trigger would undoubtedly be near the top. And why wouldn’t it? It’s widely considered one of the greatest video game soundtracks of all time. Well, this week marks the 30th anniversary of its release, so let’s celebrate by arranging any piece from the Chrono Trigger soundtrack. You are free to reinterpret this iconic music however you like. Go big with an epic orchestral arrangement of “Frog’s Theme”, go small with a music box version of “Wings That Cross Time”, or meet somewhere in the middle with a wind quartet version of “Battle with Magus”. Transform a piece into a different genre - how about a jazzy take of “Guardia Castle”, a DnB remix of “Schala’s Theme”, or an acoustic folk version of “Yearnings of the Wind”. You could also reimagine the music as if it were in a different game – like a cheerful platformer-style “Black Omen” or an uptempo kart racer arrangement of “Corridors of Time”. And you will never let us down by making a mash-up featuring "Robo’s Theme". There are just so many great tracks to choose from and so many ways to arrange them. Just don’t let the choice paralysis stop you though! This might also be a good opportunity to revisit this great 8BMT video that looks at more awesome Chrono Trigger pieces!
