- === About this Song ===
Back in the mid-2000's, I started a games commentary and humor site with some friends, and I ended up creating a video compiling the 20 best soundtracks of all time (in my opinion, of course). Looking back, there were tons of soundtracks that I left out that I probably would include now, but the number one game on that list was Final Fantasy 6. All these years (and many game soundtracks) later, and I still believe that Final Fantasy 6 is the greatest overall game soundtrack of all time, especially when compared to the other soundtracks from that era.
I've never forgotten about the music from FF6, but it's been a little more challenging to incorporate it into the dance-influenced material that I've been working on during the past few years. Nevertheless, as I was working on my Pulse project, I wanted to include at least one of the songs from that legendary soundtrack. And so, I ended up selecting Shadow's Theme as the source material for this latest remix.
The original Shadow theme was originally in 6/8 time, so I had to adjust some of the timing of the song to fit the standard 4/4 sound of the rest of the songs in the project. Fortunately, The theme has a wonderfully solid, simple melody that I believed would work well for a trance track.
I usually find it hard to create music squarely in any specific genre, but this is one song that I really wanted to give a classic trance feel to. I felt that the fantastic melodies of the original theme and the synth sounds of trance music would make made for a solid combination, so that's what I was aiming for in this remix. As an ode to the wonderfully Western sound of the original track, I incorporated a few hints of whistling and some subtle Jaw harp sounds here and there.
As always - please enjoy, and thank you for listening!

You've gotten so much better over the years; I'm amazed!
And I never expected Shadow's theme music to get such an epic trance treatment! Nice Work!
Thanks so much for saying that. I never feel like my work as at the level where I want it but I still try and push myself and release music even if it's not exactly what I hear in my head. I'm glad you enjoyed!
@@MkVaff - yeah well I'm not your head! lol
My head hears something fantastic, so I think you do a great job!
@@chrisrj9871 I definitely appreciate that. Thank you!
you did a great job on this it turned out real good!
The piano cover for Shadow's Theme is my favorite. I've been listening to it for years and it never gets old. It was so beautifully done. Thank you for that and all the other's (Back to Town), etc. I grew up playing FFVI with my best friend who passed away in 2007 at the age of 23. Listening to your covers brings me back to those times of us playing. I agree, FFVI soundtrack has to be the best of its time and still holds solid today.
While i'm sure you've heard of it, but TPR - Melancholy FFVI is phenomenal. The whole soundtrack was done and it's absolutely beautiful. Helps with relaxation, sleep, driving alone with your thoughts, etc. you and those guys, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I really mean it. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing your story as well as the song. Their work truly is gorgeous, and is perfect for all of the activities you mentioned.
While a lot of my music tends to be more upbeat lately, I also find that the slower, more "melancholy" material is so perfect for relaxation, thinking, and healing. I'm glad that I've been able to bring back some positive memories with my work, and hope I can continue to do so in the future.
Thank you so much for writing, it means a lot. 🙏

Love it 🔥🔥
