New music ~ Uematsu?

[kazaran]

Nabuo is great, has a couple new, but there are two other great composers in the team who blend well in style, don't foget about them.

Nabuo had great songs in Lost Odyssey as well. When it comes to the story elements, that is where he is strongest, night fight songs. The music of Lost Odyssey as made to fit the feeling of the characters and story perfectly.

Eclipse of time is great and some of th others with SHeena Easton. Especially during the segement when the mother dies. /cry that part of the game was just ubber sad.

Nobuo always releases top notch music. It's a shame he doesn't work for SE anymore but they often contract him, hopefully they grab him again to do at least a few tracks for XIV.

The ones he did for XI were some of the best in the game.

He only did about 85%-ish of XI's original tracks, and I believe a couple of Zilart (along with Naoshi and Kumi).

but yes, I totally agree that the series has been lacking his special touch. To be fair, Naoshi Mizuta has become a very respectable replacement and I would go so far as to say they're on par with one another now. His work has improved a lot since Zilart.

Naoshi Mizuta is amazing. He did Tu'lia and Zitah, and most of XI and XIII/-2. http://m.youtube.com/results?q=ffxii...?v=bKmZ7Uw76qI

XIII(the first) was all Masashi Hamauzu, other than a few remixes.

Uematsu only did a handful of vanilla XI tracks, but I'm not sure of the exact number. After that, he did CoP's vocal ending theme.

I'd like to think that he is waiting for a 'proper' Final Fantasy game to be released before he put's his awesome musical touch to it.

He's not even at Square Enix anymore.

We live in a day of extremes. If people don't like something, it's labeled garbage.

Paradigm Shift Battle theme for FFXIII-2 is an awesome Battle theme! Naoshi Mizuta Does know what he's doing, I wouldn't mind if he was one of the composers for FFXIV =).
