I heard Nobou and the guy that did the music at FFT gonna work together on FFXII music
A journey which spans across many familiar worlds to find friends, hope, and answers...
I believe no one can replace nobuo also. Not just bc he is one of the greatest composer EVER, but I believe No1, no matter what you do, can be replace...and maybe there are people just as great as nobuo, thats the reason hes is named ONE of the greatest composers of all time....I do feel sorry for Hitoshi Sakimoto tho....some BIG shoes to fill....well good luck!
Its been confirmed that he is doing some of the music...not all, but some. And personally, that makes me more than happy...just don't get another group of FFX-2 composers, please.
I like Kung-Fu.
He didn't compose the music for Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, but the soundtrack turned out to be very, very good. Kumi Tanioka is a very promising composer, perhaps she's the future composer of the serie, who knows? But anyways, don't ya' worry too much, Square Enix has many talented composers ready to take over.
Nobou is quiet talented... I prefer his work to the hash-up of all three songs in ffX/-2 and its inifite remixes.

A good theme song can be altered to make a few other good song. Nobuo knows where to stop using the same basic outline for a song and start making new ones. Some of the newer composers don't, this is true.
I strongly disliked the music from Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy Tactics. It was drab, at best.
That's just me.
I just noticed, Takara was right. For God sakes people, if you're going to talk about him as a legend or even say you respect his work, respect his name: Nobuo!
That is all.

So long as the traditional floaty epheral music I can't remember the name of is used...
And more importantly, the victory fanfare thing. So many applications...
Sitting there talking about a case in torts class with another guy, wherein a 70 yr old man who was hard of hearing tried to cross train tracks in a mule drawn carrige, and did not hear the train, which was speeding, approaching him. He did not make it over the tracks, and was killed instantly.
Later, when discussing theme music for various portions of the class, we decided, in a morbid sort of humor, that the music immediately following the train smashing the poor carrige to pieces would be...
DUN DUN DUN DUN dun Dun DUN dun DUUUN!!!!!
(Which of course is followed by the image of the conductor doing a victory dance)
The next time you're feeling so invincible that you don't feel like saving, remember this sig- TAKE TWO SECONDS AND SAVE TWO HOURS! SAVE YOUR GAME!
Don't forget Kajiura Yuki (Xenosaga EP2, Hack//Sign, Noir, Madlax...)
Yasunori Mistuda was my second favorite square game composer after Nobuo. I think it would be fuxking awesome if he did FFXII. Although, really theres just no substitute

Sakimoto kicks butt! I think his sense of harmony, dynamics, and mode is superior to Uematsu yet.... Uematsu is still a bit more creative for the man takes influence from all kinds of music.
Both great composers though. Anyway... you know there is FFXII music already availible to listen to... so just go listen to it for yourself
Lamia's Tiara- Headgear in FFIX
Lamia's Flute- Weapon for Eiko in FFIX
Lamia in FFV- a enemy
appearance: a lady with long brown hair, wearing a tiara...half woman and half snake.
Lamia in FF3j- A Harp
Lamia in FFL2- An enemy
FF2j Queen Lamia, at one point she even gets Frionel in a bedroom with her and jumps on the bed and says "take me!".. before she turns into her snakey self. She serves as a mini boss in this game (as Queen Lamia).. and after you fight her as a mini boss, regular lamia's become random foes and later on in the game, Queen Lamia's become random foes as well.
LamiaScl. an item that paralyzes foes.
According to legend, she was once a Libyan queen (or princess) who fell in love with Zeus. Zeus' jealous wife Hera deformed her into a monster and murdered their offspring. She also made Lamia unable to close her eyes, so that she couldn't find any rest from the obsessing image of her dead children. When Zeus saw what had be done to Lamia, he felt pity for her and gave his former lover a gift: she could remove her eyes, and then put them on again. This way, though sleepless, she could rest from her misfortune. Lamia envied other the other mothers and took her vengeance by stealing their children and devouring them.
I'm hoping that the music will be adequate at the least (and I'm confident it will be above average anyway) and that the things we'll be talking about once the game is released will include "Didn't they do the characters so well? They all developed and they all had a good story..." and "Wow, I loved that story!".
But seriously, yes, it's a shame that Nobuo won't be doing the whole thing, but we should be happy that he's working on it at all. Someday we might even have a better composer - I won't count on it, but it's possible. People shouldn't cement themselves too much as time will move on.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Yeah but credit where its due, He is very good at his work and thats why Aquare hires him and fabs like his music, there may be someone better but Nabou has earned peoples respect.
