Name: Tethys by Taylor Sirman
Duration: 5 min 6 s
Description: 4th in the series "Moons of Saturn", Tethys is a mix between classical stylings and modern sensibilities. This piece is a mixture of both traditional and new instruments, creating a familiar sound but with slight changes.

I've been playing a lot of Final Fantasy lately but I wanted to cover music from one of Square's less popular games. 

Threads of Fate(or Dewprism if you're in Japan) is an Action RPG where you play as two characters. Rue, a shapeshifter, and Mint, a magic user. It was made by Squaresoft and released on the PlayStation in 1999.

I probably played the demo for this game about a thousand times before I went and actually bought it. Really loved the art style and the music had a lot of atmosphere.

Unfortunately, this title came out right before Chrono Cross and Final Fantasy VIII were released. So, most people ended up buying those instead.

Junya Nakano scored the original game and I believe it hold up pretty well. I highly advise anyone who enjoys 90's Square games to go and play this right now.

Back at it again with another cover. This time from my favorite(only?) video game quadrilogy. 

The piece is based off the 2 tracks on the OST - Aura's Theme and Ending. Threw in a little bit from .hack//G.U. for the extra nostalgia trip.

I played these games quite a bit and made sure to always import my saves across. Never managed to get ahold of Quarantine but we all know why that's the case.

Another FFXIV cover. Original themes by Masayoshi Soken.

I have probably spent way too much time in Bozja at this point. The quest line is so good but I was a bit sad there wasn't more original music for the final assault. It's not main game content so it was to be expected.

So, I went and made it myself. I combined the melodies from Gangos/Bozja with a few of the FFXII motifs and the original Torn from the Heavens track. 

Hope you enjoy it.

FINAL FANTASY XIV: SAVE THE QUEEN COVER

Back at it again. One week left til Endwalker releases. 

Decided to spice this cover up by adding in the Canticle theme since it's so closely associated with two of our closest Sharlayan allies, Alphinaud and red Alphinaud.

Hope you enjoy it.

Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions was probably the game that really got me into the FF series. I still keep my PlayStation Vita around specifically so I can play this a couple times a year.

Hope you enjoy my cover.

Wanted to do a cover of one of my favorite themes from recent television. Please enjoy.

Original version by Yugo Kanno.

Beats to study/steal hearts to.

Since I'm in quarantine I thought I'd make some more covers. I've always been a fan of the Persona series and Persona 5 by far has my favorite set list of music. This is a downtempo arrangement with elements of lo-fi of the original Beneath the Mask piece from Persona 5. 

Original piece by Shoji Meguro.

Hey guys, just released my latest album Wayfarer. This is the track the album is named after. You can listen to the rest of it on all major streaming platforms.

This album is heavily inspired by video game soundtracks from the 90's-2000's. Specifically the Final Fantasy series, Dot Hack, and Monster Hunter.

Wayfarer

Wake up warrior. We're going to the moon.

I've been watching the FFXIV: Endwalker trailer on repeat since it came out last week. So I decided I wanted to do an orchestral cover.

I just recently got into this game after several friends pestered me about it for a year straight. Now I'm eating crow and love the game.

Hope you enjoy this.
