Jonathan David Arndt Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) After listening to all the tunes I could find from Seiken Densetsu (both on OC Remix and the VGMix archive) I am still trying to track down the artist/album for this particular one. We must have first download this as kids off the net in the late 90's (maybe early 2000's). And it is such a great remix, I just keep coming back to it, and would like to finally track down the artist who made it, or the album it is part of. Any help or guidance on who made this is appreciated. Thanks! Edited August 4, 2020 by Jonathan David Arndt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteo Xavier Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) Based on the timeline and the amateurish (though still respectable) production on it - my thoughts are that this is not on an album or by a professional artist (at that time anyway) and that clues for it may be found in any archives for Newgrounds or even http://archive.rpgamer.com/music/archive/ Though I'm already on the RPGamer site and do not find such music present.

yangfeili Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I've got this in my OC Remix folder with a file date of May 5, 2001. The artist in the tag says "compyfox." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan David Arndt Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 The only remix by "Compyfox" I can find on OC Remix is here on this page: https://ocremix.org/artist/4383/compyfox/remixes And it looks like he was also engineering lead on the Chrono Symphonic album. But that is all I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yangfeili Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Digging into the forums via Google, it looks like it was definitely by compyfox, but he requested that it be removed back in 2003. Jonathan David Arndt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan David Arndt Posted March 10, 2020 Author Share Posted March 10, 2020 You are a gentleman and an (internet) scholar. You are amazing! It never occurred to me that it may have been posted and then removed later (although I should have suspected, based on some of the other purges in more recent years). Now, I am curious as to what OCR number this was published as... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan David Arndt Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 Thank you everyone! This has been so helpful. Now that that is all settled, I'm wondering if the source material is really from Seiken Densetsu, or from Final Fantasy Adventure. According to the changelog here at OC Remix, it is attributed to FFA, at least in the title (of course, I cannot see the metadata and comments that would have been included with the original...) But while listening through SD remixes, there were a few that were extremely similar, both in name and style.

yangfeili Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I might be misunderstanding what you're asking, but Final Fantasy Adventure was the U.S. title for Seiken Densetsu (they're the same game). I think it was released in Europe though as Mystic Quest, which is not to be confused with Final Fantasy Mystic Quest in the U.S. which was Final Fantasy USA in Japan (and apparently Mystic Quest Legend in Europe). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_Adventure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_Mystic_Quest Edit: And further not to be confused with the Final Fantasy Legend games, which are actually the beginning of the SaGa series in Japan. (Speaking of which, I just finished SaGa Scarlet Grace, and highly recommend it.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Final_Fantasy_Legend Edited March 16, 2020 by yangfeili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan David Arndt Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'm so sorry... I have asked a silly question, and I should have tried looking it up first. (I've listened to the music for a long time, but am still a total noob to the FF franchise and RPGs in general.) Had no idea these titles were related. Thank you for shedding a bit of light on this confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan David Arndt Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 Oh wow. I do enjoy it. The original piece is obviously a favorite, and your arrangement is very fine; it certainly brings out more of the sad emotion from this piece. Well done! I hope you submit this one, and can work through any advice the judges have to offer. Robert_G 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
