sayonara
radical river
kaine

sayonara really stands out atmospherically. distortion and heavy wubs offsetting the light and soft hopeful melody. this really is a piece of music with its own story, the game's theme at war with vile invaders. wings isn't without storytelling, either, rich and adventurous, with the two small piece leitmotif sprinkled throughout. it is just plain fun, but not saccharine. i'd be fine with a victory from either, but i do have a preference.

i've only listened to a few mystic warriors songs, but i am so in love with how they - understandably, and perhaps obviously - make me think of final fantasy x. this is really quite a compliment from me, ffx music rocks my socks off. radical river doesn't disappoint at all in this department. soul sanctum, on the other hand, feels less like a battle on a dance floor, but empty and haunting. even when it picks up, there's a brutal loneliness attached. this kind of epic orchestra battle music is hit or a miss, sometimes it just feels cheesy to me, but this passes the test. preference given to the former but the latter is still pretty good!

i am used to the ffxiv version of kaine/salvation and it is throwing me into a loop lmao. i keep expecting more. THAT being said, that is not an insult to the original, which is still beautiful, if not more beautiful in its own right. the vocals so haunting and the pared down instrumental backing. there is just so much sorrow in these words i cannot understand. what in the mood whiplash is this - flock step is cute and fun. i kind of didn't expect to like it very much based on prior experience with rhythm heaven, but this was pretty neat!
