New music ~ Uematsu?

[PEANUT]

Is Uematsu going to continue making music for FFXIV? Is there gona be new music or is it already all made and thats it? Sorry if theres been news about it, I couldnt find anything on this here on the forums. Thanks!

I believe that Uematsu-San is no longer working on the music team.

good that man needs a break, besides its time for somebody else to take up his BGM mantle.

Aw :\ Im wondering did he make the Garuda battle theme?

[Rau]

I don't think so. He made most of the stuff that was in the game before team restructure. Most everything else is new i believe.

Don't think so most of music was made by the other members of the team i like one battle theme that remind me a lot of kingdom heart battle theme in the main town. at least it sound a lot like kingdom heart version there is a member there who did a few songs for kingdom heart lol.

I don't think uematsu have been doing any of the new songs issue why most of the songs fail is he did not have a working game to base it off just screenshot and ideas if he had 2.0 from day one i bet the songs would have been 10x better.

Yeah he hasn't done anything new since the actual launch version of the game. Which is fine by me, because although there are some good tracks in the original version, these new tracks they have been creating have been pretty great. Darnus fight tracks are amazeballs.

[PEANUT]

Ya the new tracks are incredible! I just didnt know if Uematsu made them all and they slowly are adding in the tracks as the game progresses or if its a new team working on the tracks. Im thinking he made like 80 tracks? My favorite track of the whole game so far is the one that plays in Merchant Wards I think in the earlier storyline with the NPC Minfillia, the slow one. Ugh! Its so beautiful!!!

No, and I think we're the better for it.

I haven't been wowed any of his music made in the past 10 years.

Now Shimomura. She's worthy of high name projects.

What's sad is I read somewhere that some of Uematsu's work in the current version will be removed when 2.0 hits. Sad to see some of his songs that wont ever be in game again.
