    I've been theorizing for awhile now that the tracks on Itunes are the ones that will be retired, or used less frequently. Those tracks are done and used (though for things like Natalan and Garuda, I do believe they'll still be around).

    The unreleased stuff still has potential for them, so they may be hanging onto those for a bit longer before committing them to an OST. Just my speculation though.

    Uematsu's contract status shouldn't really be an issue, since it was a commission based job: i.e. he composes for SE, SE retains the copyright but Uematsu is allowed to use for portfolio purposes.. kinda like how Graphic Designers work with businesses to create logos and things like that.
    Going by the tracks on itunes, only Thanalan's battle theme was included. Nail of the Heavens and The Forest's Pulse weren't included, and yet, we already heard a showcase of the new Black Shroud battle theme from the official alpha videos.

    I do hope that the tracks make a cameo somewhere, like in a cutscene at least. Not necessarily in full, but just for occasional nolstagia hits. Who knows, SOKEN may arrange a few favourite tracks to fit into his style of ARR music. Kinda like how he arranged the Prelude theme while still using Remembrance as the backbone (you can hear it still in the background).

    Yeah its really hard to say for sure what their scenario is, which is why I only theorize lol. For tracks like Rise of the White Raven, I can't think of any other place they'd use it except for flashback cutscenes regarding Darnus. The music will probably get shuffled around, like they did with the job quest AF being used for Black Shroud levequest music now.

    Right! Is it "Beneath Bloody Banners" or "Beneath Bloody Borders"? Banners makes more sense but it was called Borders first.

    And I do think SE has the rights to the music. Either the tracks on Frontiers will remain and the others will go or all will go away and we'll have all new stuff. I sort-of think the Frontiers tracks will stay since The Promise of Plunder is showcased as the normal battle track for Tam-Tara in the Alpha First Look video 8. Of course, that's a SOKEN track and maybe only the stuff he wrote will remain. But I'd sure hate to see On Windy Meadows go.

    Most of the Itunes stuff is Uematsu's, which is why I think it'll go bye bye lol, even though I don't want them to >< Soken's tracks are mostly the 7th Umbral stuff, like Moogle, Garuda, Darnus, which will most likely stay as they're "theme" songs, with the exception of Darnus since well...he's dead

    It's been stated in the past that we'll have a mix of 1.0 and 2.0 music, but as to which tracks are going and which are staying still remains to be seen. Then there's the odd placement of 1.0 tracks, such as job quest music for the new levequest...made me scratch my head the first time.

    That part confuses me as well. I'm more inclined to think that it may be a placeholder music as it IS just alpha. The demo for FFXIII-2 did the same, using tracks from FFXIII as a placeholder for others that made it into the retail version of FFXIII-2.

    I just want my Coerthas and Mor Dhona battle themes. And all of the DoL quest songs, even if the quests were terrible. The old soundtrack of this game was some of the best music I heard in a FF since, well, ever.

    Today seems like a good day for posting on old threads! Rubicon, if you're still around, could you pop your list of known track titles up. I thought I'd get around to labelling them properly...

    Also, adding another voice to the request for 1.0 song titles!

    I'd also love to know what the songs were called. I have a few particular tracks from 1.0 that I hope will remain for ARR.

    What we have as far as song titles are from the itunes list, as well as the CD releases (field and battle tracks)

    Eorzean Frontiers on iTunes

    Field Tracks on iTunes

    Battle Tracks on iTunes

    I would be interested only in about 3 of them, and those are: music while fighting Darnus (both stages), background in Mor Dhona and Coearthas.
