  • I was so happy to know that the Culex battle theme from the original Super Mario RPG came back in the Mario RPG remake. This is actually a track from Final Fantasy 4 that has seen many different iterations over the years, but this version might be my favorite and it's certainly one of the best tracks in the Mario RPG OST.

    Have you seen my first time reaction to the new Mario RPG Remake arrangements? Man, that felt kinda emotional, not gonna lie -> ua-cam.com/video/FR457DC2vls/v-deo.html

      its battle 2 from (final fantasy 4) if you fight a boss.
      the composer of this game and the mario and luigi games? is yoko shimomura also kingdom hearts.

      the first 6 final fantasy games have that intro,
      for final fantasy vii (switch)? that beginning base is used during the final boss for 1. its named the birth of a god.
      in final fantasy viii? its used during the final boss ultimecia her final form. that name is extreme.
      in final fantasy ix, its back to the normal battle theme.
      dave, you can switch in the remake to the super nintendo soundtrack super mario rpg.

    • @WildArmACF
      @WildArmACF 6 місяців тому +2

      Also if i could make a suggestion. There's a series of songs called " the justice ray" that has 5 parts, all in different games, with all being final bosses but part 4.. which is the first boss. Its a fun set of songs and all by the same writer. I think you would like them.

    Two versions actually. They included the original version against a 2D Culex and then after fufilling criteria you fight the 3D version with the new arrangement.

    What’s interesting to me is that… my first reaction, before you even said “that’s huge”, was that it actually sounds surprisingly small. Like, it IS a huge orchestra, but something about the arrangement, or maybe it’s the mixing, makes it feel to me like this huge orchestra is scoring a small-scale theater production. There’s something a little more jaunty and light-hearted about the way it’s played her that makes it more suitable for the game without losing the epic sound of the game it’s based on.
    You can hear it in the chiptune version, too. Those are not the same instruments used in FF4, they sound a little bit sillier.

    When you give a master a full orchestra to play with and tell her to arrange a piece by another master you get...
    The truest Cool-X piece ever.
    And please, please, please do the comparison between the original and the new version of "Beware the Forest Mushrooms". It's like one of the most iconic pieces of SMRPG.

    This song was originally from Final Fantasy 4, and Square (Square Enix) and Nintendo collaborated so they could use it for Mario RPG. If you like this song, I would like you to listen to this song from Final Fantasy 14. Also, it's an orchestral arrangement in Mario RPG, but it's a rock arrangement in Final Fantasy 14.

    Great video as always! Love this track. Such a gorgeous arrangement. When Yoko Shimomura was asked to arrange FF music for the SMRPG, she chose this Battle 2 theme from FF4, which has a cool and memorable melody that impressed her. It was also arranged in FF14,I like that, but Shimomura-san's arrangement is really wonderful.Thanks for the video, Davi!

    Good video as always! I don't know why but the first half of the track reminds me of something, maybe a series when a was a kid, but I haven't play any Final Fantasy game or Super Mario RPG, so that cannot be the reason.
    Also, I just want to recommend other Blasphemous tracks: because you have mention the arpeggios, from Blasphemous 1 there is "Arpegios en Ocre", and we have as well one of my favorite, "Cinco Miradas tiene la Aurora", beautiful. And for the sequel, mention to "Padre de los Penitentes" and "Ecos de los Pecados"(💀); this one is great and I like to listen to it paying attention to all the instruments, like a make with "Lamentos de Arena".
    Well, nothing else. ¡Adiós!
