Wow...Motoi is a synth god! O_o His house must just be a crap load of Rolands and Korgs lying around. Also pretty awesome the bassist is right in the center slapping those strings around. Just amazing stuff -33
@endersftd If you like this kind of prog rock, you should check out the band that inspired Sakuraba called U.K. They were a pretty short-lived band, but they made awesome music, not to mention that, after their guitarist left, they had the same lineup of just keyboards, bass, and drums as Sakuraba's band.
The number of keyboards in front of Sakuraba is simply intimidating. If he was in a mainstream band, everyone's attention would be at him instead of the vocalist. Either way, I love everything about this performance, especially the freakin' bass. He should do more live performances.
holy cow i thought my song wouldnt pause... turns out i decided to watch this video the exact same time this song came up on my playlist..... all i wanted to do was watch a vid of sakuraba too! what are the chances!
To put it literally, the first few seconds lead in the same way for the Star Ocean 2nd Story and Valkyrie profile songs. Then there is a change to the 2nd story one after that, then after that piece it breaks to where both of them are similar. He mixed it around a lot. The song is practically identical in both games. It's his extra dungeon theme song essentially.
@NorthernDruid it was first heard in the game Star Ocean 2: The Second Story. it was the bonus dungeon music that played when you entered the cave. it was the ps1 game not the remake. thats the earliest form i know of. most other tri-ace games that have a bonus dungeon use this song too now. the original star ocean did not have this song playing when in the 7-star dungeon.
@futureicon23 well, the japanese culture is to show respect, not like the european when u rise and jump while screaming. and this is a AOL session i think, so they play new songs right after eatchother. Motoi is the best composer, epic!
Motoi is my all-time favorite vgmusic composer. I'd love to see him perform live. Maybe a rock interpretation of some Golden Sun tunes, haha. Why not??
Amazing, to have a video game musician play in concert would be amazing to have over here in North America. :/ But some of the instruments made me think of the soundtrack from Ace Attorney: Miles Edgeworth for the DS.
i love his music. half of valkyrie profile's magic is it's fantastic music. however, i wouldn't consider him such a fantastic keyboardist, notice the utter motionlessness(?) of his left hand in all his songs, which consist of a very similar formula: fast right hand + long epic chords on his left. his bassist rocks though XD
This song is in every single Secret Dungeon of every single Enix RPGs, except VP2 sadly. So Star Ocean 2 and 3, Valkyrie Porifle, Radiata stories e.t.c all have it.
Well, I have played through the entire game, and the Seraphic Gate, and I haven't heard it once. Not to mention it isn't listed in any of the VP2 soundtracks yet. Either your friend is lying, or it is hidden deep somewhere in the game.
Motoi sakuraba is on the best way to be a great gamemusik composer Genius like Nobuo uematsu nobuo is better its good that gives so much gamemusik genius like it great Baten kaitos is great to :-)

Motoi Sakuraba is a LEGEND!
I didn't know this dude was so awesome! He's composed for like 100 games!

And Seraphic Gate´s.

It's from Valkyrie Profile and Star Ocean 2.
this answers the question "What if god was one of us?"
@TiMickQC lol you've inspired me to wash my dishes while listenning to this
I would like to hear "Negative Roots" live. That song is awesome.
@NorthernDruid Star Ocean: The Second Story for PS1, in the Cave of Trials. The Star Ocean: Till the End of Time version is excellent too.

Aww man. I never got there, just rented it and got to the end. *sigh* I'd love to play it again, though!
my favorite song!
I'd love to see "The Divine Spirit of Language" performed live... that track's awesome.
@TiMickQC Atsushi Hasegawa, he plays in a japanese band called Gerard.
Sakuraba is a monster!
This dude Rocks!
Waaaa! Very good! *______*
Absolutely incredible
...Musical...freaking...genius.
Hey,dude, the music in VP2 was great---!
Amazing, to have a video game musician play in concert would be amazing to have over here in North America. :/

I'm pretty sure this is from Valkyrie Profile because it's on the OST that I downloaded from the game.

Well, I have played through the entire game, and the Seraphic Gate, and I haven't heard it once. Not to mention it isn't listed in any of the VP2 soundtracks yet. Either your friend is lying, or it is hidden deep somewhere in the game.
THE SO3 version is the best of all, in my opinion.
Really? Even Radiata? Where? =O
Why is the crowd so quiet in the end? -_-
I'm not even there yet :P I've finished the game, But I gave it to my friend so he could test it :P
SERENITY TEMPLE
Does anyone know the name of the bassist??? and NO, thats my opinion, but i dont think they need a guitarist.
I got bored with that dungeon....but still I made it my past time. ^^ We even made choreography for this BGM...
fight the gods while trapped by seat belts :3
