The article I posted about last week made me think about FFA a lot, so I’ve picked out a track from the game for this week. It’s a dungeon track, the second one to be more specific. Some of the titles of these old songs just mention what they are for instead of having a name, it’s kind of interesting. I wonder if they did that for convenience, and there actually was a real name for the track but it was just never mentioned on the CD or anywhere else. Anyway, Sword of Mana has all the same tracks, just redone, and they actually have names there. So here is Dungeon 2, or Temptation of Doom as it is known in Sword of Mana, enjoy!

Today’s track comes from the Faerie story line in Legend of Mana. I think it’s hard to pick a favorite out of all the three storylines, though maybe Jumi takes the cake for me. I’ve always liked the Faerie story a lot though, it was the last one I completed out of the three. Personally I don’t find the Dragon story line that exciting, but maybe that is because it is the one I have been through the most and also the first one I completed, it just doesn’t feel as emotional as the other two. I really like how involved the character gets in the Jumi and Faerie storylines too.

Hope you enjoy the music!

I am very sleepy this week, so I’ve chosen a nice little sleepy track from DoM.

Gentle Eyelids – Kenji Ito – Dawn of Mana

What a nice little track, so easy to fall… asleep… to…

Sorry for the music being a bit late this week! The internet in my entire town decided to stop working at any decent speed, my download speed was 0.019 Mbps and the upload speed was a fraction of that, so I just didn’t see any way I could get the update done! I wonder what happened to the internet lines? Could it have been a High Tension Wire? Does that even make sense? No, but I’m using it as an excuse to have this track as the MMT update. Hope you enjoy!

This track is one of my favorite boss musics from SD3, it’s just so upbeat and optimistic sounding!

Hello everyone, happy Monday to all and if you’re in the U.S.A. happy Fourth of July!

I chose today’s track because it was as close to the idea of a firework as I could get with the song titles from any of the games. Darkness because you do them in the dark, and Nova because that’s an explosion. My logic is flawless! Flawless I say! Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful day, and if you’re celebrating today stay safe! Those are explosions after all!

The Darkness Nova – Yoko Shimomura – Legend of Mana

Today’s track is one that I spent a lot of time listening to. Flying around on Flammie was one of my favorite things to do in the game. I’d spend hours just exploring the overworld map, looking for the faces and whatever other little landmarks I found interesting. The other two tracks are nice, but I really enjoyed this flying theme the most. It’s so optimistic sounding! Hope you enjoy this great track!

Hey everybody! Long time no news, it’s time for some music!

Here is a remix Kassidy found of one of my favorite tracks of all time. I really like this one, it’s pretty cool and I like the sawtoothy sound it gives off. Kassidy will have to post a comment with more details on who made this, because I don’t actually know besides to say it comes from a doujin album.

Today’s track comes from Seiken Densetsu 3. I’ve never understood this song’s title, what exactly is a flamelet? Is it supposed to be a tiny flame? Makes sense I guess considering it is Carlie’s theme song. But I’d like to imagine it is instead a portmanteau of flame and omelet. Maybe it is made out of eggs that the Fire Drakes lay. I think that’s a more exciting idea. After all, the Basilisks in SoM laid Eggatrice eggs, and the Basilisks in SD3 even burp up the same enemy. But the Fire Drakes? They don’t have any eggs in the game, and I posit they are not shown because they have all been turned into flamelets.

Yup, this title makes perfect sense to me now.

This week we’ve got a track from Legend of Mana. It’s probably the favorite track from Legend of Mana for around 90% of the people who have played it. I made that number up but I’m willing to bet it’s pretty close.

Cliff Town Gato – Yoko Shimomura – Legend of Mana

This week I’ve got another Children of Mana track for you to listen to, I forgot how great this game’s soundtrack was.

The Wind Sings Loudly – Takayuki Aihara – Children of Mana

The thing about this track though is that I’ve no idea where it appears in the game. Also, the track Grasslands of Eternity from the second disk doesn’t actually get played in the game as far as I can tell… which is really weird considering they even added it to Dawn of Mana as one of the SK4 mixes. Now, I could be completely wrong about that, so let me know if you know where in the game the two tracks I mentioned here are!
