T-9102M: Sorcerian: Apprentice of the Seven Star Magic - Sorcerian Music Collection

[Spirit_Chaser]

Does anyone know if the soundtrack to the Sega Saturn version of Sorcerian is the same as the PC-Engine version?

Edit: After looking into it it turns out they are very different.

There are several unbreakable rules of classic falcom: Shopkeepers are the most graphically important characters, there is NO WAY Adol's adventures can be over, and there are never too many unique musical arrangements for dumb old Sorcerian.

But golly gosh on the second part of this album, these are the most over-eager fadeouts I think I have ever heard on ostensibly looping music.

Looking at the credits for this version of Sorcerian (https://www.youtube.com/live/9D3RVpf...0jtU6Jv&t=6131, https://www.mobygames.com/game/26117...oplatform=true), I recognized the name Hiroshi Kimura (木村 浩; same kanji as https://vgmdb.net/artist/11698). Considering the fact that several other former Irem employees are also mentioned (Shin'ichi Yamamoto/山本新一, Takumi Kawai/河合匠, Syu Sato/佐藤修, Tsutomu Sakata/坂田勉), as well as the fact that this Kimura and Syu Sato were also mentioned in Falcom Classics II, this Kimura is likely the same person as https://vgmdb.net/artist/11698, thus making him the only possible candidate to have made this version's soundtrack arrangements.

This of course makes the fact that Hiyamuta went uncredited in Falcom Classics II all the more inexplicable...
