tweex Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I've been working on a project for about 3 years now and today I FINALLY announced it. I've created a remix album of music from Final Fantasy XI(11) called "The Land of Vana'diel." The album will be released on August 1st, 2012 (just a couple weeks away) and will be completely free to download for everyone. I've released a teaser website with a preview video of the music. Feel free to check it out! http://landofvanadiel.com To put it simply, OCR is the place that I came to nigh on 10 years ago to enjoy video game remixes. If it wasn't for this community and the high standards that the staff hold the remixers to, I would have never learned music production and remixing like I have. Suffice it to say, this album wouldn't exist if not for this wonderful community. For that, I am eternally in your debt. Thank you. -Humbly and gratefully- Tweex Quote
Magellanic Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Just saw this on N4G and its very impressive! The preview sounds beautiful. I'll definitely be checking this out. Best of luck with the release Quote
Flexstyle Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Wow, that preview sounds gorgeous. Can't wait to grab it when it comes out! Quote
Gario Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Damn, this is the year of Final Fantasy arrangement albums. This came completely out of nowhere, though - and what a great surprise it is! Glad to see where you've been all this time, Tweek! Quote
Soma Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Preview sounds really nice. There were a few songs in there I didn't recognize. I haven't played that game in so long. Looking forward to the end result! Quote
kupernikus Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 sounds awesome so far. Never got terribly far towards late game, but I do enjoy XI. Every now and then I miss my old RDM.... Quote
ZealPath Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Very exciting to say the least! As someone who was dragged back to XI about a year ago by friends and is still playing now, I'll definitely spread the word! Quote
Brandon Strader Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 I think I saw the trailer for this yesterday... it was very good and I am so excited to check it out. Thank you for making it free, you are a good man. I am not familiar with the music at all, so I expect this to be a whole new adventurous experience that I will enjoy more for having not known the source. Nice work! Quote
Melbu Frahma Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Saw this on Extra Credit's facebook yesterday, and my jaw just droppd. Some really good stuff in the trailer - tempts me to play the game, although that'll never happen. But still! Can't wait for the album itself. Quote
avaris Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Holy poop Brian! This sounds awesome. Love the intro harp. Quote
Eino Keskitalo Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 That sounded good. Congrats on getting the album done! --Eino Quote
OceansAndrew Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 im super excited to hear what you've been up to lately, and FF11 is an incredible soundtrack. Quote
Sixto Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 goooooh this is gonna be great. i loved ffxi. such good music Quote
Modus Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Did you remix the Ragnarok bonus track, Stargazing, or Sanctuary of Zi'tah? Those are probably my favorite three. I love Bastok's theme too. Glad you remixed it. Quote
Dj Mokram Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 The arranged Republic of Bastok took my breath away (as did the rest of the preview). Awesome stuff tweek, as always. Super excited for this album. Quote
linkspast Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 This is so Awesome.. I tried FF14 but it missed the feel ff11 had.. This brings back so many memories, I will be downloading this day one. That Bastok theme made me proud to be one of them. Quote
Jamphibious Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Oh good golly gosh. Bastok sounds superb, and I'm digging that Mog House. Sarutabaruta sealed the deal for me, this is gonna be fantastic. Quote
Lampje4life Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Oh. My. God. Best thread on this site. Preview sounds awesome, FFXI has the best soundtrack of any FF imo, with every theme perfectly suiting to the environment it was used for. So happy to see this game getting some more love! Airship and Gustaberg sound great. Can't wait till august /cheer Lampje@Cerberus Hopefully there'll be some more BGM's coming to the European Theatrhythm DLC... Japan has quite a few! Quote
tweex Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 I'm extremely pleased to see that you guys are looking forward to it. I'm beyond excited to finally be able to release this to the world! Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 This is an extremely nice present to close out my summer. Thanks for all of the hard work, tweek! I wish more people did orchestral stuff on the site... Quote
Dj Mokram Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 I wish more people did orchestral stuff on the site... ^ This. Cannot stress it enough as well. Quote
Wiesty Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Definitley one of the least mixed final fantasies on OCremix, so its good to see a whole album coming out! Quote
