Specific/General themes composed by Nobuo Uematsu for dungeon areas

[Teknoman]

I was extremely happy when I heard that Uematsu would be composing for Final Fantasy XIV, and while I think he has done an excellent job so far, there really is a lack of dungeon music in the game.

Final Fantasy XI suffered this problem as well. I'll admit that some cave or mountain areas are better with just ambient effects, but Uematsu has always made great dungeon themes in the past. It would be criminal to prevent him from making some for XIV. For example:

Giant's Dungeon - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW3An...eature=related

The Phantom Forest - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq8TV1PqZvw

Mount Ordeals - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hATVIUphlQ

Final Fantasy IV dungeon theme - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qw5BW8_4PJ8

Fate in Haze - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMNf5-Y25pQ

Awakened Forest - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXphJ9ptZjc

Devil's Lab - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMK-y8w6YhA
(While there is nothing similar to this in game now, considering Garlean technology, something close would be amazing for a Garlean base/ factory)

...and many more.

A few examples from more recent titles such as Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon:

Ipsilon Mountains - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwv3tRKu3bM

Eastern Ruins - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVnly-OASsI

Cavern - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Fjv6LxB7A0

One of the current dungeons in La Noscea, Mistbeard Cove, does have it's own theme, however the rest of them just have ambient noises...and perhaps could benefit from either having a specific theme, a general theme for most dungeons of a certain type, or a mixture of music for certain sections and ambient noises for deeper sections.

I know there is not a dev tag for this, however, I think adding a few themes to current dungeons as well as keeping this in mind for future dungeons, would go a long way towards bringing that Final Fantasy feel back into Final Fantasy XIV.

EDIT: Just to make sure, i'm not asking about direct lifts or arrangements of themes from specific titles, but just more work from Uematsu to flesh out the various locations in the game.

When i heard Uematsu doing ff14 music i thought immediately about a "fate in haze" (my fave dungeon theme ever) music style for a dungeon. So i'm agree to add music themes in some other dungeons but not in all dungeons though. Or a mix (depend of level of the dungeon) like you said Teknoman, would be neat.

Yeah, some wide plains/field areas need to just be ambient noises for the full effect. Same with the very top of a mountain area, or maybe the middle point of a cave area.

Hopefully this comes into play with the upcoming PvE and raid dungeon content implementation.

I really enjoyed Mistbeard's theme :/
A lot of the music in the game isn't bad by any means. It's really hard to continue to make memorable tracks after that many years

[jstadragon]

it's all about coerthas bgm

[graiman]

agreeed!!
love the guys music, it adds so so much to the game, its a shame there is no dungeon music! i havent experienced any yet but that is a downer

[JayvirDeforte]

Coerthas bgm is fantastic. Even the battle music is very well done also. Nearly everything about Coerthas exudes awesomesauce

[Evangela]

Why Nanawa Mines still has no BGM?

[Nephera]

again there's a LOT of unused tracks in the game files, so there'll be more music.
