    That intro bit that vibes so hard from "Don't Be Afraid" from FFVIII gives me chills. Soken is such a master at paying homage to previous FF tracks while at the same time crafting something unique and new. And Husky is unparalleled at emulating him.

    It feels so crazy how the FF16 OST already sounds like a classic to me. I get the same feeling as when I hear pieces from my childhood and it's like I've known the song my whole life. Many of them live rent free in my head when I'm out doing stuff.

    • @actuallynotsteve
      @actuallynotsteve 10 місяців тому +1

      I played 1-8 on release and 16 is already my favorite battle theme, and has a few other all-time classics. I've had the chorus riffage stuck in my head for a week.

    • @actuallynotsteve
      @actuallynotsteve 10 місяців тому

      I'm getting close to the end, and it's already my favorite OST in a FF game. I've played 1-8 on release, and the series meant a lot to me as a kid, but nothing hypes me up like seeing monsters and engaging them because the song will come on. Also, the lunar serenade makes me feel ever time, and I'm rooting for Jill.
      Clive is a big stupid himbo, and while I like him, I feel for Jill and hope she gets hers before it ends. I'm at the part where we're destroying the second Mothercrystal, with Cid and Benna watching on.

  • @ericbright1742
    @ericbright1742 Рік тому +13

    That time signature play Soken did at the beginning, giving a sense of urgency, is wonderful.
    Following it up by making the rest of the battle music a _waltz_ is a work of genius.

    • @Huskybythegeek
      @Huskybythegeek  Рік тому +8

      It's such a maze ! It alternates between 6/4 and 5/4 a bit randomly, super fun to play once you catch it !

    • @ericbright1742
      @ericbright1742 Рік тому +4

      I love when composers use the 5/4 time signature, like in the Mission Impossible theme. Makes the song sound urgent, and off-balance.
      And Soken uses it at the start of a battle, like when you just randomly are running around and get jumped, when both the character _and_ the player might be shocked and uncertain. Those seemingly random 5/4s are you, player and character, trying to get into the rhythm. Once you do get into the rhythm, it fully goes 6/4 (or 3/4), and you enter into this waltz, further emphasizing the dance-like action combat in the game.
      All this to say, props to Masayoshi Soken for his composition, and props to you for a wonderful cover.
