Not directly part of Square-Enix. Nobuo Uematsu got them done.

wow I didn't know he actually played keyboard himself in that. i don't think this guy could write a bad theme if he tried.

it wasnt but it would sound mad if it were remixed by the black mages

I dunno, I guess the FFIII boss music, and the FFIV boss music would be good, though seems kind of hard in a rock theme, but who knows.

Better yet, I'd rather have a new great game released with music by Nobuo and company. A game called Gun Hazard had some awesome music by him, and it even looked a lot like FFVI. And it was an action game. We need more games like this.

*smiles* I have both the Black Mages cds. They are like, supremely awesome. I listen to them all the time. I am a black mage myself though not a member of the Black Mages band. *sighs*

My favourite is Jenova and Those who fight further.

Maybe I'm a lion wasn't that good.

I have One winged angel though.

the 1st album is superior to the 2nd IMO.

The second album was more experimental, which was a good in some places and not so good in others, especially when they started using vocals.

I like the Black Mages. Even some of the songs they do that just mimic the original, it just sounds much better being played by actual instruments than in MIDI or whatever format. I was very surprised by how much better Dancing Mad and J-E-N-O-V-A sounded in that fashion.

I would like to hear them do a chocobo song, the one from FFVIII would probably suit them the most, but just do a chocobo song. I think The Sword of Doubt might sound good in a rocked style, and maybe The Extreme. Songs from the earlier FFs sound good when they redo them, it's just that I kind of can't tell beforehand that they would, the constrast is only apparant in hindsight.
