Lullaby (Era of Decline)

deep sea

Quiet Reflection

The Magic Broomstick

Legend Of Heroes Past

Sigma's Hideout

Party In The Chai Kingdom

Inspired by "Lullaby" by @alcibiade-minel (the general vibe and the melody in the first few measures)

Weary Adventurer

An original song made in FFIV style obviously inspired by Theme of Love. Not playing out of a real SNES, but designed to sound like it is. I do my best to emulate FFIV's sound system via Impulse Tracker and clever use of a delay plug-in Will be used on my FFIV album when I finally get around to working on it in a few months when I am done another 8-bit project that I was actually contracted out to do.
