(VGM REMIX - XENOGEARS) First Meeting -The Shadowed Forest-

Written for an "Inspired By VGM"-type album. I'm very proud of this one.

Forest in the Storm

Probably my favorite original composition, because it feels the most "true". How does it make you feel?

Earth Cradle

A vast stretch of gently rolling grassland, green and fertile. Upon setting out into these plains for the first time, the player is met with an overwhelming sense of adventure.

That organ (a keyboard transcription of music by Motoi Sakuraba)

"Michael is suddenly attacked by beasts; Merrill, the main character and Michael's older sister, charges in to protect him. The game's first battle begins."

Project VGM - 04 - First Encounter -Battle Theme 1- (Joe Schwebke)

A composition that uses the Chrono Trigger soundfont. Intended as a world map theme.

1300 A.D. World Map

An aging retired soldier (late 50s or so) though seeing the party stop his home city from being destroyed inspired him to take up his firearms and join them in their quest. He appears to be a grizzled man, looking older than he is because of his grey hair. Though he is easily moved, he is mostly of the serious sort, rolling his eyes up at the goofy banter everyone else gets into. Secretly, however, he love things that are small and cute; though he claims he was inspired by the party's feats, in truth, he wanted to join in order to see Jayen up close. 

Project VGM - 26 - Dorin's Theme (Joe Schwebke)

The pure black form grows to an enormous size, its tendrils forming into massive, bone-like wings. This is the true form of what was captured inside the artifact: a demon from the depths of man's most terrible nightmares.

Project VGM - 98 - The Fangs That Tear Apart the Earth -Final Battle Part 3- (Joe Schwebke)
