7/10 Don't know anything about "the accident" in the title, but I liked that piece.

Sounds foreboding, yet oddly soothing. I like it. 8.5/10.

 

[McGeeforShee]

It was a very shrill take on traditional Japanese music. 3/10

I knew beforehand that Shining is a franchise that had its roots in the Sega library, but without that prior knowledge I'd honestly believe that this was an SNES RPG title thanks to this song's instrumentation. I'd give it a.... 8/10, It has this imposing sense of majesty I'd expect of a battle song for a 'flying dragon'. (This is an assumption; don't heed by my words)

I'm also gonna put a few remixes of it here, just to spice things up. I've actually posted this song way earlier into the thread; over four years ago, in fact.

Re, Shining Force 3: I believe it was cause that game was on the Sega CD, hence the higher quality instruments.

I'll rate the original there: 7/10. Nice upbeat track I'd expect from any Touhou game. I also really like the PC-98 instrumentals, so this is a treat to hear.

Since I'm thinking of that platform now, I'll post one from the PC-88.

8/10, I like the bass and melody in that track

I can't say that I necessarily got much out of it emotionally, but I can say that I was pleasantly surprised at the many different directions that the song went in and I definitely enjoyed it at that level. 7/10.

@Blockhead Pippi
It's funny how multiple people here now (myself included) have compared that game's music to SNES music, and I think I might know why. I compared it to Tales of Phantasia; turns out that the same person who composed most of that game — Motoi Sakuraba — is also the one who composed Shining Force III's music (which I never would've guessed the first time, strangely enough).

Incidentally, that PC-88 song above reminded me (unsurprisingly) of the Etrian Odyssey series quite a bit, so let's go with something from there:

EO is a series I'm not particularly fond of, but it's music is occasionally good. Anyway this track gets a 6.5/10 from me, it starts off beautifully but the rest kind of falls off a little bit imo, still not too bad though.

 

[ReturnofMCH]

7/10, not a personal fav tbh, but still good for what it wanted to represent

This song plays against the superboss fight of master eraqus’ keyblade armor, using a dark reprise of the future masters theme that’s a lot more frantic. It nails it imo.

 

[Juliko]

6/10 It's okay, but I feel like certain parts were a little overpowering.

 

[FelipePR]

Nice song, but i think my cat found the music a little noisy. He ran away from my room. --> 6/10

Yet, now he is out, i can post another noisy one, lol.

I remember my dad mentioning this game to me once! Anyway 7/10 sounds like a track you'd hear before a boss fight, also reminds me of older FF games.

 

[Ryoma Maser]

9/10-Nice groovy calm beat, reminds me of Lo-Fi which I listen to a lot while doing work.

8/10 - I really liked it. The song looks diverse in itself and remarkably remembers Earthbound.

I remember my dad mentioning this game to me once! Anyway 7/10 sounds like a track you'd hear before a boss fight, also reminds me of older FF games.

I thought that Breath of Fire was still reasonably well-known. The first one is a very elementary rpg game, but the 2,3,4 are quite good. Personally, i like BOF games more than the FF ones.

While I can't say that it sounds particularly distinct from other SNES tracks of its type, it's certainly a good example of such a track and I enjoyed listening to it. 7/10.

 

[Tactician Karina]

8/10 a fun and pretty theme, sounds like a track for a casual outing.

 

[FelipePR]

I kinda like Golden Sun, although I only played the first game. Regarding the song, it is nice, striking and very catchy, but, in my view, it is not outstanding. --> 8/10

 

[Tactician Karina]

Chrono Trigger is one of my least favorite RPG's and one I find very overrated, that said it's OST is one thing I actually like about it. Anyway this remaster gets a 9.5/10, always thought this track was very beautiful and still is.
