Ginnsu Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 Final Fantasy II 'Town Tribute' This one’s a very well done piece by NoppZ from the game Final Fantasy 2. Very melodic, and suits an adventurous theme extremely well. A nice piece NoppZ, keep it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Nostalgic stuff. I think that have some problem with the snare. Snare of bad quality, for me. But the remaining portion is amused. It´s so a bit pleasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Now THIS brings back memories! This one of the happiest and most calm track in the game. A pretty village out in the wild with thousands of monsters standing outside the walls waiting, but the town theme is still happy! I like their attitude. For the remix: Noppz have made it again, a super mellow remix that just want you to hang up your hat and sit down with your feet on a pillow and lie back. Noppz has captured the spirit od relaxness and stuffed it into a remix for everybody to enjoy. AAhhh....Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
your the man now dog Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 i never played FF2, but this remix is awesome. Very dreamy. I like it a lot when remixers don't try and do too much -- it makes the remix sound more natural Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceansAndrew Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I think the drums could come down a bit in both volume and reverb, and it's not too far removed from the original, but it does have a nice relaxed feeling. I like Bummerdudes' assesment of a cheerful town surrounded by thousands of monsters. Are they oblivious? Indifferent? Possibly just so cheerful from this song playing constantly that they don't allow any monsters in to mess up the phonograph. Anyways, nothing groundbreaking here, and the drums are a bit annoying to me, but the rest is nice and relaxing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I like Bummerdudes' assesment of a cheerful town surrounded by thousands of monsters. Are they oblivious? Indifferent? Possibly just so cheerful from this song playing constantly that they don't allow any monsters in to mess up the phonograph. This one really made me think. I don't know if I'll listen to this piece the same again. Haha. Nice chill mix. The snare bugs me, especially when it's all alone in the beginning. It's over a bottomless pit or something. Just too big for my tastes. Aside from that, I have no problems with this mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halc Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 i love the drums, but there may be a bit too much reverb, especially on that snare. the lead is amazing. the soundscape here is so dreamy and euphoric ending left me hanging though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eino Keskitalo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Pretty much what everyone has said. Before the strings come in to fill the soundfield, it sounds worryingly bare. Then it sounds rather pleasant for a while, but doesn't really offer enough to be a keeper. Needless fade in the end. --Eino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Great happy and relaxing track, but I too was blue-balled by the fadeout. :[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmiduke Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Ah Final Fantasy 2. The troubled deadbeat family member of the Final Fantasy music scene. Noone but NoppZ is charitable enough to remix music from it. He's a living saint, I tell you! This is a slow, upbeat mix, and while I appreciate that is basically what the original was as well, for some reason slow and upbeat tracks depress me a lot. And for some reason, I got a lot of foreboding out of this mix. I felt like I was in the happiest village around, looking at townspeople going about their days oblivious to a scourge of destruction descending upon them. But that's just me. I craved some meatier arrangement in this. I thought it did its routine thing too often, and the key change didn't make things that much more interesting. The samples sounded a little soppy, but generally they fit well for what this mix is. Not my favourite style of mix, but nevertheless, I'm glad to see FF2 actually has some representation around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 What I love about the bells (or the electric piano as djp calls it) is they sound so joyous they're already at the point of tears. They tell me this is a blessed town I'm entering, full of pure folk who are protected by heavenly graces. An admirable representative for the countermelody from the source. Not to diss the rest of the mix; the melody's admirably boosted by strings, pads, drums, a "can't go wrong" key change, and other pieces to paint the peaceful prosperity of the town. But my first love is those bells. Just loverly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansdown Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Slowing the melody down really gives off a nice, calming effect. I like the progressions at 0:50 and 1:20. Could have strayed further from the source, but it's a good track in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
