Description
This song is a Multi-Genre Progressive Journey through many different scenes. I wanted to create the visual that your always moving forward and surprises keep awaiting you. This song took 67 hours to make and represents where I'm at on my musical Journey. I have a lot of parts I really like in this piece! I love the "2nd Intro" where you arrive at your destination following the opening, the high energy scene after that at 1:10 and the transition at 1:36 with the drums and bass! I created this using FL Studio 20. I learned that you can automate multiple mastering chains for different genres in the same mix, which helped alot!

This is a joy to listen to, very good pacing of the music, love all of the different instruments working together, creating some really interesting textures and sounds.

I like the instrumentation choice and the overall flow of the piece, good job.

Wow that was amazing! I've never played  Chrono Trigger OST but this made it seem like I've played the entire game. The feeling you conveyed through this track, and the dynamic, like it's a real adventure, always moving forward, it was amazing. 

Very nice flow between your different parts, great choice of instruments, amazing percussions, spot on mix... Absolute banger.

Love how this blurs the line between cover and tribute. Really great variety of instrumentation, and I love the moments where elements from the battle theme pop up. Really great work!

I never finished Chrono Trigger (I have a real bad problem with giving up on JRPGS like 20hrs in) but I recognized when the bassline from the battle music came in and it was awesome. Really nice production quality on this too

Submitted

lol I have the same problem with JRPGs these days! I usually get to the part right before the endgame and just dip out. Chrono Trigger included! I've definitely spent more time listening to the OST than actually playing the game

This sounds like so much more than a battle. There are so many twists and turns to the music that it feels more like an exciting journey across the land. Awesome work!

Submitted

This sounds really cool! I like all the different instruments you used throughout the track, especially the flutes

Submitted

This sounds amazing. Love especially the percussion and the bass and piano part around 1:35

I like how you've mashed up modern elements and traditional instruments. I haven't played Chrono Trigger, but your tribute sounds nice on its own too.

Chrono Trigger music is so, so, so, so good. Your tribute is just as good. Wow.
