Now THIS is what a King walks in with playing!!! EPIC!!!!
The Donald Trump theme song!!! I hope he comes out to this when he wins the election and gives his winning speech.
HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Sidetracked Jones XD
You mean, THIS is how a King ENTERS in with playing!!!
If I were a king, I would expect to hear this
"I'll give you 3 reasons to like this music:
First of all, this music has captivated me!
Second... I'm dying to hear this over and over again...
I guess your... orchestral remix abilities... would be a distant third."
Ace Trainer AJ hahahahahaha
I suppose a normal composer would have found him dashing. But I'm hardly... normal...
This comment deserves more likes!!! The cult of kefka is behind your lack of likes.....Relm..get em!!😂😂😂
Son of a submariner, this comment is genius! Uwee hee hee!!
LOL
Terra: "Whats wrong?!"
Edgar: "Guess my technique's getting a little rusty."
when do they say that?
When Locke and Terra first arrive at Figaro Castle and meet Edgar.
@@MetalMeekAnd Edgar fancied himself quite the lady's man. 😂
Celes: Sabin!! You're alive!!
Sabin: (laughing) But of course! You think a minor thing like the end of the world was gonna do me in?
Celes: I thought everyone was gone. I had given up all hope. But... fortunately I was wrong! Now I know they're all alive! We need to find everyone! Then...
Sabin: I know, I know. We smash Kefka, and deliver peace unto the world.
That moment, accompanied by the Figaro theme, makes me cry every time. Sabin was EXACTLY who Celes needed to see to renew her hope, the gentle giant with the big heart who's the fucking rock of the team.
God, Final Fantasy 6 really is the fucking GOAT.
It easily the best final fantasy ever by faaar imo
Old great castle..... Hiding on a desert...buried... What a game. Was a nice memory.
You sir, deserve a cookie. You made an iconic track even better.
he deserves a medal!
Vanished Official Cookies are better!
Still giving me those Goosebumps all these years later.. ooooooft
the 5 dislikes must be from Kefka's alt accounts :P
"Son of a Submariner!!! Why'd you have to live out in the middle of no-where?!"
He made 5 accounts more!
El majestuoso castillo de Figaro
I've been searching *YEARS* for this theme, but I could never place it! Praise the almighty Sun! This is a kingly theme! 👑
"King Edgar! Welcome back!"
Having grown up with these awesome games, it always stir emotions when I hear those wonderful song so amazingly well executed. Thank you!
+Matt Darrock I always get that same feeling when I hear high quality remakes of classic video game music. That's the main reason I started doing these. I'm glad you like them! :)
Bro the nostalgia hits like a brick
When I heard this version, not only did it bring me back to the days of me playing this and singing along with the theme, but my hair stood up on end which gave me the goosebumps. The best RPG game of all time.
I loved this game and all of the music that made this the best RPG of all time.
ABSOLUTE SPOT ON and so epic.... I am glad I have found your excellent exquisite masterpiece's of work. Nobuo would be stunned and proud if he ever hears this greatness!!!! Malcolm The Great should be your name!!!!
NOSTALGIA AT ITS FINEST OMG
One of my favorite songs in the franchise, and you just made it better! Awesome.
linkaegar That's a huge compliment since the original SNES version still sounds great. Thank you!
While I do appreciate the 16-bit goodness, there's just something about hearing this piece orchestrated that makes it sound more regal, which is what generally makes castle themes great.
This is fantastic!
Thank you for making such an epic cover of this theme!
+李俊龙 It was a pleasure to make it, but it did take a lot longer than I expected. Thanks for listening! :)
The FF remake Square won't make, but we all NEED.
this orchestral cover is really EPIC ! awasome man !
+Jullyans Azhar I'm glad you liked it and I always love hearing the word "epic" to describe something I make/remake. :)
Finally! Someone doing an orchestral version!
So good
Absolutely brilliant.
If they remake this game... THEY MUST USE THIS!!! AND YOU MUST LET THEM!!! XD
gamerprince1999 I'm sure they could make a better version, but I'll let them use it if they ask. :)
A theme fit for a king!!!
What's particularly brilliant about this arrangement is how you've kept all of the original harmonies going throughout, so rather than just being a simple orchestral version it is a true-to-form arrangement. Very nice work on one of the best FF themes :)
Lee McNamara Thanks so much! I felt that the original was pretty much perfect, so I decided to make my arrangement as close to the original as possible. I sometimes add extra percussion, harmonies, or transitions, but for this one I only added the ending. Now that I listen to it again, I think I could have made the trumpets sound a little more realistic. I'll probably have another go at it in a couple years.
フィガロ城のテーマですな…。
ドラクエ・シリーズの城テーマ曲群に負けないくらいの荘厳なるものが…。
Glad I found this channel. Well done.
If the Kingdom of Figaro was in #EU4 ....
Yearly Prestige +1.0
Tech cost -5%
Idea cost -10%
A fort can be moved to another province
Lmao, this is actually pretty cool.
I CAN´T TELL THE DIFERENCE BETWEEN THIS ONE AND THE ORIGINAL OST OF THE GAME... WOW... SUCH WIN..
Dude u can easily tell the difference.... This 1 is wayyy better. This man puts effort into these, not clowning anybody else's work, just that this is what most of us wanted these soundtracks to sound like from 8bit tech, and he made it happen. Subscribe and support.
Man you took me back to my youth , thank you .
namingsway It's always nice to be able to provide some nostalgia. Thanks for listening!
Malcolm Robinson Music Anytime , subbed and favd
namingsway Much appreciated! :)
thanks gooruh
Amazing Work!
Brought this to LIfe!!! :)
+ChannelerMG That's a great compliment! It's exactly the reaction I hope to get when I make these. Thank you!
+Malcolm Robinson Music
Wonderful treatment of the theme that really made me love FFVI.
THIS IS Amazing, THANK YOU!
mecha217 Thank YOU for listening. :)
why... why is this perfect? how does it work so well?
Wow...the ending tho...im gonna go ahead and say awesome 👌
Damn, you can suplex a train with this.
AWESOME! Very well done, I love the original too, but this honestly takes it to another level!!
Amazing work I have to say. Listening to this just makes me giddy in anticipation for the day you decide to do the castle theme from chrono trigger.
+Loompynugget Thank you! I laughed when I read your two comments together. Glad you liked it!
Listening to this is a trowback a couple years ago when I wanted to know why the FF7 vs FF6 discussion was about, and now a couple years later Edgar and Mash/Sabin are still up there with my favorite FF characters
Not to metion the kick ass theme for their kingdom
Sabin and Edgar are my favorite ff6 characters. They could easily have their own game imo.
gura lead me here
Also very awesome! One of my favourites. Keep up the good work!
Lisdop I had been dying to do this theme for a while. It ended up taking a lot longer than I expected, but I think it was worth it. I'm glad you like it!
Consistently good remixes on here. Enjoying them a lot :)
Nautilus T Party Thanks for listening! Consistency in quality is important to me, so I tend to just not release the ones that don't sound good.
Listening to this at about 13000 feet up.
well, that's well over 9,000!!!
DANCING MAD PLEASE! Channel Kefka's madness into your composition!!!
If you want a good cover of Dancing Mad listen to the Distant Worlds covers, and if you don't like the Distant Worlds 2 cover, there is another cover by Distant Worlds that doesn't use the electric guitar and stays solely a symphony orchestra piece.
I would have sworn... hell I STILL do swear it was on Distant Worlds 3, but apparently I'm remembering incorrectly, and it's blowing my f**king mind. Regardless, there IS a cover of Dancing Mad performed lived by a professional symphony orchestra and it's amazing.
Beautiful.
lovely
Domestic shark
I definitely wanna make a hip hop version of this
エドガー皇帝の曲
やっぱりかっこいい
Funny... the very beginning of the music reminds me the Stone Tower Temple theme
+Finalstar Same
+Finalstar Except it was made before the stone tower temple
SAME!
Quando joguei esse game na versão de gameboy tava nessa parte antes de meus pais terminarem, agora esse som só me lembra essa época. Ótima música ótimas lembranças.
Lembro de ter empacado nessa parte quando eu tava jogando no emulador.
@@fadaemikotone Me roubaram meu celular na época perdi o save e fiquei com preguiça de recomeçar, mas agora vou tentar no meu 2DS
such an amazing remake
良き兄弟👬👍
A great version, couldve sworn it was used in the pixel remaster or at least on the same level
Cute based shark brought me here once again, this theme will now never get out of my head
Escuchar usando auriculares....
👍👍👍👍👍
HELL YES
GLORY TO FIGARO
One thing I always thought was needed is a trilling triangle to go with the crash cymbal at 0:46
I need to play this game again. I didn't finish it and I need to.
that reminds me of Stone Tower Temple from Majora’s Mask!
Just started playing this for the first time.
Can you do Terra's Theme?
you wont be disappointment, my first ff game and the best for me indeed, although the ff6 gba version have some extras, i think the super nintendo version is better in the music area, but if you wanna taste the very best you should try the ff6 gba fixed on an emulator.... it has the dark and creepy colors what makes the ff6 snes version shine and of course the music :)
awakening* you mean
THANKS AGAIN✨🫡
this made me cry final fantasy 6 is good but this made it better
Do you have plans on doing more from Final Fantasy VI? If you do, could you take a look at "From That Day On"? You're really good at capturing the intended feelings/emotions from the original compositions and this one in particular I'd like to see done right. Thanks for all the great work!
Not sure if you'll see this but I'm still curious if you have plans to do "From That Day On". Thanks a lot for all you've done up till now!
Bom
Why does every remaster of this, including this one, cut the trumpets off too quickly in the first measure? The original cuts them off only starting with the second.
gura sent me here
you should play the game ;) chumbudy
lyrics: old, young, pretty, plain, nobody is safe!
omg! Amazing, you will make 'Protect the Espers' someday?
+Alêh '-' Protect the Espers is an awesome piece, but it's not on my list of 30 FF6 tracks that I plan to make initially. It's possible that I'll change my plan though or do it as a bonus later.
Oh my God, I can truly see the Figaro Castle in the music. This is so perfect, just like the rest of your work! *ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED : Subscribing Dragons - 100G*
+r4shka
Thank you very much! :)
There's something off about the decay on the brass instruments.
Maaan, shadows theme, coin song, i can just imagine the songs. that you will do :D. Maybe finally see a slight personal touch to setzers theme that makes it better lol
+ryokoshii I can't wait to do Coin Song! I'm still not sure whether I'll end up doing Setzer's theme though. In fact, choosing which tracks to remake and which ones to skip is a really tough job for FF6.
Coin Song, Shadow's Theme, Celes Theme, Gogo Theme, Dancing mad, Slam shuffle ( so underrated), and dancing mad at least. :P if theres others up to you i mean the opera is a hit or miss since its difficult so n o worries there :D
+ryokoshii My plan is to do 30 tracks in total for FF6 divided in two cover albums. My stuff will always be free on UA-cam, but I like the idea of releasing cover albums because it gives me specific goals to work towards. I have a sort of temporary list of the 30 tracks, but I won't paste it here because I'm sure it's going to change just like my Chrono Trigger list did. I intentionally left the Opera tracks off the list because I'm going to do a mini album for them some day in the far future when I figure out a way to do them (hired opera vocals? pure instrumental?).
THey are tough so im sure you will figure it out :), if you dont wanna do them no one will blame you ! SOunds good also
+Malcolm Robinson Music The opera is also a part of Celes's theme. You could try and balance the two to see if that helps any.
Any chance you could upload some "1 hour of __________" videos for a few of these songs or have MP3/WAV downloads of the audio files? Some of these would be great for D&D but are not quite long enough to use as background music without some looping :(
I can’t tell the difference between this and the Pixel remaster, besides the ending.
Awesome! Great to ear it with better quality! Any plans for FF7-8-9?
Lord Bif Music Thanks! I'm planning to do all the Final Fantasy games from 1-8, and possibly 9 too. For the moment, I'm focusing on 4 and 6, but I'll eventually get to the others.
Malcolm Robinson Great, can't wait! Keep up the good work!
Malcolm Robinson Music Immediate sub :)
John Galois I really appreciate it!
Freakin beautiful man. now for a real test of patience, you need to try Dancing Mad. (Wouldnt blame you if you didnt want to!)
Colin Roan I really want to do Dancing Mad. I've thought about it a lot and I have a pretty good idea of how I would do it. What I'm not sure about is when the right time to make it would be. I'll probably end up doing it sometime in 2016, but maybe sooner.
hey, the good thing about Orchestrations is its never too late for em, people love that shit. Especially if they hit the nostalgia spot too. Which you do a good job at man.
2019.11.11~
greatest game ever produced...developed...made...
This feels so powerful. No wonder dragon quest 8 went this orchestral route, though the music wasn't as good.
Gawr Gura “sang” this and Oozora Subaru played this (private due to no permission at the time and still is).
I hope other Hololive members can stream FFVI one day.
Kinda sounds like something in Final Fantasy 12.
...
Now I want a mod for 12 where all the music is orchestrated music from FF6...
Like Figaro Castle could be Archades...
Narshe could be Mt Bur-Omisace...
The river part could be the Garamscthe Waterways...
The Veldt could be Ozmone Plains...
My god I need this...
and to replay 12 a third time...
Just in case you would like to know, the river you're on for the river bit is the Lethe River.
As I listen to this, and thinking back to the other pieces, I have a question.
Is there a sound sample for a timpani stuck by hard mallets? I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the regular timpani sound, I'm speaking completely out of minor personal, subjective preference (I am a percussionist XD). I don't know the limitations of your software, but I do wonder if a hard mallet sound would flush the timpani parts out better for pieces like this one, where the music strong and bombastic.
Alex K At the time I made this, the only orchestral percussion sample library I had was from the old "EWQL Symphonic Orchestra" set, which is a little out of date and limited in its flexibility. Since then, I bought the company's new "Hollywood Orchestral Percussion" library which is far better and more detailed. It has both hard mallet and felt mallet options for timpani. I actually found the option a little confusing at first and didn't use the hard mallets much, but I'll try them out more in the future. As a non-percussionist, any feedback is helpful. :)
Malcolm Robinson Music Yeah, for a piece like this, I personally feel like hard mallets might suit the timpani part better. The sound is a bit more percussive that way, so it's easier to hear the rhythm, such as during the triplets. :)
So it might be worth playing around with until you find a timpani sound that you really like!
i was just going to buy some meat for dinner...
But now i am on a Market, ontem a quest for te best meat!

Sorry for the rude language i'll use but : I came while listening this :x
That's probably the most positive reaction I could expect to get. Thanks! :D
If they make a remake and they ask you if you will let them use than than plz do
this is what we all heard when the SNES cranked out this track
Or the GBA version of the game.
so f*cking grand
Hey, @Malcolm Robinson Music, is there a way to acquire this masterpiece somewhere?
An updated version of this track will eventually be available on iTunes, Spotify, etc. as part of my (legally licensed) FF6 cover album. In the meantime, I don't mind at all if you use a UA-cam to mp3 converter (for example, www.onlinevideoconverter.com/mp3-converter ) to just download an mp3 of it or any of my other UA-cam content.
Oh even better! I will definitely buy that. In the meantime, I'll subscribe so that I don't forget.
does this remind anyone else of the stone tower theme from majora's mask?
this reminds me on game of thrones but i dont know why
Do coin song as well!
this is pretty good, but it feels kinda empty compared to the orginal.
This was one of my first covers. It's very old and not representative of my current standards. I'm eventually going to make a new version.
There are more girls in here, than grains of sand out there.
I would dislike this as a fanmade, cheapo "Synthetic orchestra" but I also know fans can do stuff like Sonic Boom. While not on that level I was genuinely, positively surprised after clicking the video thumbnail to find this rendition that is synthesized - to the very same manner as the original is on SNES but with more oomph in the available instruments making it sound like fanmade remaster, possibly being synthesized on the fly by better music engine in a better version. It is not as genuine or impressive as unearthed studio quality Donkey Kong Country music originals but in my mind this fits into fan made masterpiece, both upgrading and staying true to original through use of the machinized orchestra for the machinized castle.

I can't wait til Trump wins. He needs to come out to this song when he gives his white house winning speech!
I'm still waiting for terra's theme
