Orchestration thread (should be completely non-controversial)

[EzekielBook]

I just hit the first credits scene of Heavensward, so I haven't heard all the music, but...

What are your favorite Orchestration tracks? (And why is a playlist limited to only 8 songs?)

So far my favorite is Valse di Fantastica - are there any other waltzes out there?

[Kolaina]

Answers. It’s heavy. The vocals on the singer. Plus a little nostalgic from turn 13 progression back in ARR. I used to have that looped in my house til someone added some of the nier ones. Which I’m good with

[Knot_D]

Pulse album, Fortress of Lies and Torn of the Heaven / Dark Colossus (Medley).

For FFXIV music my favourite is Ancient City.

[Avidria]

I don't know if I can pick a favorite lol

My favorites among the ones I have are probably just my current orchestrion playlist... so -
- Kaine, Torn from the Heavens/Dark Colossus Destroys All medley, The Legendary Beast (e11), Shadowbringers, Insatiable (Shb boss theme), Bipolar Nightmare, Civilizations, and Mortal Instants (One of the Shb dungeon themes)

Also a big fan of all the Alexander music (except cruise chaser...), vamo' allá flamenco (dancer theme), the extreme (e12), Answers - reprise, Deep Down (Malikah's Well), and a lot of the Heavensward primal themes

One of my favorite songs in game though actually doesn't have an orchestrion roll, which is a huge shame. It's the duel music, aka that one neat track that sometimes plays in potd.

I keep thinking of more so this is my last edit here : p

Favorite is "Iroha"; as well as the Dancer music... I think it's "Vamo Alla Flamenco"? Absolutely love "Vamo Alla Flamenco". "Shadowbringers" is another favorite as well as "Black Blossom" from PotD; and can't forget "The Tempest" music. Absolutely love piano music, and anything that sounds relatively jazzy, honestly I can listen to jazz music all day!

These are the tracks I tend to switch between on repeat at one time or another on my private chambers' Orchestrion:

The main theme songs (Answers, Dragonsong, Revolutions, Tomorrow and Tomorrow/Shadowbringers)
Trisection from FF Tactics
The old 1.0 city themes (Born of the Boughs ~ The Theme of Gridania, Navigator's Glory ~ The Theme of Limsa Lominsa and The Twin Faces of Fate ~ The Theme of Ul'dah)
The old 1.0 outside region themes for La Noscea, Thanalan and the Black Shroud (On Windy Meadows, Twilight Over Thanalan and Whisper of the Land)
The Ultima Weapon second stage battle theme (Ultima)
Nael van Darnus's first stage battle theme in 1.0 and ARR (Tempest)
Ifrit's battle theme Primal Judgement
The Yan'xia daytime theme (A Father's Pride)
The Royal Menagerie second stage battle theme The Worm's Tail
The DNC class quest cutscene theme Vamo'ala Flamenco from FFIX
The Mushroomery, aka Matoya's Cave from FFI,
The normal battle levequest theme Tenacity
Eden Shiva's battle theme Return to Oblivion
The Norvrandt normal battle theme (Rencounter)
The Amaurot theme Mortal Instants
The daytime and nighttime zone themes for Lakeland (The Source and Unchanging, Everchanging)
Gilgamesh's famous battle theme Battle on the Big Bridge ~ Reborn from FFV
And finally... the Seat of Sacrifice battle theme (Soken's magnum opus To the Edge)

My FC house's Orchestrion varies wildly however, but the above are the tracks I tend to stick with at one time or another.

Aaah, how I love the music of Heavensward! Also the Wanderer's Palace Orchestrion (which seems to be different from the more energetic version in Hard mode).

[Herebedragons]

I'll be honest, I wasn't particularly fond of the music in FFXV, but Valse di Fantastica really is a good one.

As for my favourite track, if I had to pick just the one it would be Eternal Wind - Shadowbringers.

[Poporito_Popoto]

Shuffle or Boogie
