Final Fantasy Tactics Soundtrack

Some reviewers made comparison with Nobuo Uematsu’s Final Fantasy compositions, though the soundtrack received positive reviews from critics. Chudah’s Corner summarized its review by stating that the soundtrack is an “astoundingly memorable classic of videogame music”. This is also supported by other professional reviews, such as by an RPGFan reviewer that “don’t believe that any other soundtrack known to man surpasses it”, and a VGM World review who quotes that “the orchestral music is beautiful nonetheless”.

BEHIND THE SCENES with Susan Calloway

They are two completely different things. In the studio, you can go back and try it again if you don’t like something you sang, which is great. When you perform live, you don’t get this option of course! It is great to record a song for the first time because you get the chance to capture it a certain way, which sets the bar for what fans will expect to hear when you perform live. So, you have to be thoughtful about your approach or any little nuances that you add because they will have to be repeated ! When I sing live I really try to focus on the lyrics and making the song come alive for the audience. It becomes a living, moving experience for me, Arnie, the orchestra, and the crowd. I feed off of all this energy which is easy to do because there is so much of it all around me. DW FF fans are some of the most loyal and enthusiastic fans I have ever seen. They make our job easy on that stage.

They are decently arranged, richly implemented, and intelligently incorporate some of the game’s most prominent themes, bringing them on par with many film scores. However, they will ultimately prove uninteresting for those used to Uematsu’s more personal and direct works, having more in common with Metal Gear Solid 4 than Final Fantasy VII.
