This week and as what could well be a web exclusive, we bring you a selection of tracks from the most recent release in the World of Mana series, Heroes of Mana, which have been ripped straight from the game. As such, you can expect the quality on the OST soon to be released to be at least marginally better.

Again, this soundtrack comes from the hand of Yoko Shimomura, known for working on Legend of Mana, Street Fighter 2, and more recently the Kingdom Hearts series.

Last week there weren’t any update. Without Sheexy I am a loser finding the original music of the remakes. Today became a little late, I totally forgot to make this update. But here is this week’s update!

The Fairy Child

Another week, another Monday, another Mana Music Monday update.
This week is Eternal Plains, which is a remake of Grasslands of Eternity from Children of Mana. I have no knowledge of this game. So I am not going to talk anything about it.

Eternal Plains

Oh, this time and probably next updates I am going to use zip instead of rar. I don’t know how many of you use rar, but zip is used by more users since WinXP has an integrated zip function, that sucks.

From this week on we are going to do special M3 updates. As of the release of Dawn of Mana soundtrack we are going to upload all versions of one music piece each week.
The first piece of music is Endless Battlefield. This one has been in the SD series since the very first game of the series: Final Fantasy Adventure, for the Game Boy. It is the theme song of the game.

Anyway, no more babbling. This song has been remixed four times. Meaning it’s total five versions of this song. Download it today!

Endless Battlefield

Finally a music from Seiken Densetsu 3. Are you obsessed with SD3? Cause this piece of music is sure obsessive.

Obsession

Huh, just two updates that are not anything about the music. We really should have something else to update.
Anyway, here is this week’s Music Monday.

Guardian Holy Beast Flammie Ver.1
Guardian Holy Beast Flammie Ver.2

Yes, it’s two tunes for this week. Am I the best, aint I? These two are remakes of the traveling with Flammie music from Secret of Mana. They are short, but they are also good. I wish they were a bit longer

This week at Seikens we’re celebrating how I keep doing updates ahead of time by offering to you this music from Legend of Mana:

Silence of Time

That is right, time is being silent because I flippin’ beat it down.  I made it my minion.  I own time!
So anyways, this song is the last boss music in Legend of Mana.  This plays while you’re taking on the Mana Goddess up in the Mana Tree.  It is a pretty cool battle, as the music would suggest, so I’m not going to spoil any more for you.  If you haven’t played Legend of Mana all of the way through you totally should.

Well, it is early for Music Monday, at least in my timezone. It still one hour and 10 minutes left to Monday. But I let it go.
This week’s music candy is a remix. It’s a remix from one of the tracks in Secret of Mana, and the track is Pure Night also known as Still of the Night. You don’t know where this is played? It is the frickin’ Pure Land!! The island where the Mana Tree is!!
The remix is from an album called Project Majestic Mix: The Trance Album. It’s a trance album with remixes from various games. More information of this album can be found in their site.

Download Holy Night from Project Majestic Mix

I know I said there would be one file for download each Monday, but I decided to break that standard (did not take long eh?) and give you four songs this time.  They’re kinda short, but hey, there are four.

Why?  These songs go together hand in hand.  Whether you are feeling calm, happy, mysterious or sad I have got a song for you here.

Serene Tune – Joyful Tune – Mysterious Tune – Sorrowful Tune

If you did not already catch it, these are the songs you play for the Elementals in Legend of Mana when you are trying to get coins out of them, you little street performing monkey you.  No, not Cappella, he and Diddle might have a music spotlight later.
Anyways, in the game you cannot use but eight instruments, so you never really get to hear what this stuff should actually sound like.  These tracks are collectively titled Music for Magical Instruments:  Ensamble for the Holy Spirit.

Be sure to check back next week for Mana Music Monday!  Deques has a remix picked out for you all.

Mana Music Monday!
Yeah yeah yeah!  Party time!

Alright, this weekly update may have the most tacky name in existance but I’m sure I can eventually top it!

To start this new weekly feature here at Seikens with a bang I’ve chosen a remix as our featured music for this week.  Seikens’ very own Destiny crafted this beauty of remix, “Withink the Fable”.

Click here to get it!

To be honest, the original version of “Fable” by Hiroki Kikuta is kinda just your average sad sounding song from Seiken Densetsu 3.  But Destiny’s remix takes the song at a new angle and makes it sound very adventurous rather than sad.  It sounds kinda similar to that of “The Legend” from Secret of Mana.  “The Legend,” is the music which plays when you are adventuring through the Cave of Courage.

In fact, the two sound so similar that I might even be led to believe that “Fable” is simply Hiroki Kikuta taking a new direction with “The Legend” like he did with many of his Seiken Densetsu 3 tracks.  Throughout the Mana Music Monday feature I will show some tracks alongside one another that you can compare from different games.  I’ll also try to get some more remixes put up here for you all to enjoy, possibly leading to a remix music section on the site.

Awesome job on the music Destiny!  If you all enjoyed this one check out her site for a few more remixes and tons of awesome original works!
