Okay, cool. Thanks for the info. I can honestly see that music working, though it sets a completely different mood and makes the game feel like a traditional western action-RPG, which is maybe what they were going for. I never played the PSP version (I heard it had awful performance issues) so I had no idea it had even more music that wasn't in the PS2 one.
I love Namba's work and his presence on this album was the main reason I picked it up. It's kind of a happy coincidence because I believe he was doing other work for Konami outside of this at the time. I imagine he saw a Falcom-related project come down the pipeline from Konami and jumped at the chance to do some arrangements again.
