And I was using FM sound sources. My motivation there was to make as many kinds of music as possible, so I was creating as many sound sources as possible. I created 50 to 60 tracks without even slowing down. I just loved making tracks, one after another. So I had easily 50 or 60 tracks of my own, but other people were working on the project as well, so they picked out 39 of mine, and then they used other people's work for the rest of the soundtrack. That was when I was enjoying making game music the most.

Interesting. I wonder if Falcom actually used those unused Sorcerian tracks in other Falcom games or on Sorcerian Additional Scenarios (composed by Mieko Ishikawa). They already did stuff like this with tracks like Battleground or Fair Wind in Ys I and II re-releases.
