great idea neo-fusion.
i know nothing about programming or graphics but i compose hell alto of music and my favorite kind of composing is game music.
i have some examples so if u r really in to it tell me and ill upload them.

again, great idea :)

Redundancy and consistency seem similar but are quite different, which is important to remember. It's not about the notes on the page, but more about the feel of the piece as a whole.

Consistency is what makes Trigger's soundtrack so memorable.


That, and the fact that most of the music is very simple. Simple often equals catchy.

That does not take away from the fact that several songs are rather touching and can induce strong emotional ties with the moments at which it's played, or the characters with whom it's associated.

-my two cents as a musician. :-D

u just said what i wanted to say if i had better English :)

Just my thoughts on the chrono series music. I own Chrono Cross and Trigger Platinum Edition (110 of 2500) and have an ultra rare uncompressed recording of Radical Dreamers' soundtrack, WITHOUT the emulated stuff (snesamp, emulator 'what u hear' recordings etc). It was made on an actual snes.

Ok so about CT: I can kinda see why mitsuda is embarrassed about it. I was playing along with the soundtrack on my guitar (I can play by ear easily because I was born with what's called perfect pitch. It can actually be more of a curse than blessing though), and noticed something. Now don't get me wrong, you want to have the audience walking away with your tune in their head. And to accomplish that, it needs to be catchy. But what can you do to make it all flow together, and give the soundtrack and thus the game an atmosphere? Well in mitsuda's case, he seems to repeat the same stuff over and over, with different instrumentation. It's a lot of the same 3 pentatonic scales over and over, the same arpeggios, and chord progressions. Now there is nothing wrong with 'keep it simple stupid' either, that's what makes something memorable after all. Make it too complex and ppl aren't going to remember a damn thing.



i played on CT and as a musician i know about what you talking (like the thing you can play corridors of time background melody with schala theme and via versa). although, not long ago i composed the music for a game like chrono trigger and i found that this repeating (or better called: Motive) is what makes the game so exciting, it gives you the feelings of empathy to the characters. i think that both chrono trigger and final fantasy x  characterized with this motives in the music and that's what made them the best games i have ever played.
