I am really surprised that I have never seen any mention of this song on OCR. Perhaps its not a remix in the OCR sense of the word, and is more a case of amazing sampling, but AskAsk's FUNKY HEROES which combines three themes from Chrono Trigger and the hip-hop of Afrika Bambaataa is, bar none, the finest reinterpretation of Chrono music I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. And I've got a library of 80+ Chrono mixes. AND I'm not even a hip-hop fan! It is so celebratory, so invigorating and I can't help but sing these lyrics when I hear the actual Chrono theme on its own now!

So yeah, high, hyperbolic praise, but anyway, since i haven't seen nary a mention on these board of it and believe it ought to get more play then it does on the interwebs, here it is:

The full song originated from YTMND. Here's the page with the full remix:

The original YTMND page that had a rough version of the mix is here and animated sprite Chrono Trigger dance party:

I'm not sure where to get a full download, but one can probably rip the a .wav file of the site.
