Just preorder my copy from CD Japan! Can't wait for this one, hurry up February 29 ;-)!

[Ezrajab]

I was searching all over this!

[dancey]

Oh god they sound amazing

[Don]

Three new samples are up. Town Medley, Mount Gulg, and Matoya's Cave

[Zanasea]

More samples today. And more good news: another Piano Opera will be made for FFIV, V and VI!

This looks promising. It's been a long time since I waited so eagerly for an album.

I wonder why "The Prelude" is marked as a FF1 arrangement when it seams to be based on FF2 or FF3 OSV prelude. I also wonder what can they do with that track since the other melody was only introduced in FF4.


Edit: All 13 samples available now.

Just published our review on OSV. It's a great album, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Still, I think the IV/V/VI album is unnecessary, but I'm looking forward to the new arrangements.

[dancey]

Made the following changes:

• Changed "This is the Last Battle" to "This Is the Last Battle". Is is always a verb.
• Changed all '(' to '[' to match tracklist
• Changed all ')' to ']' to match tracklist
• Added track times from the cd
• Added relevant music/sound/performance credits from the inserts.

[Phonograph]

but the official trackname says "is" not "Is"

[dancey]

That only applies to that album, not this one. It's not printed in English on this album, ergo it needs to be proper title case since the only printing is in Japanese.

I'm fine using the translation across related albums or albums in a series, but not formatting. Formatting is entirely album specific. No English in this album means I use proper title case.

[Ramza]

have not listened through yet, but I'm about to. Hoping I like it!

Also, scans incoming!

It's definitely an arrangement of the FFI Prelude; II and III are both in C, whereas the original Prelude was in B-flat (as is the new piano arrangement)
