SE did it again.. Shimomura's new album "memòria!" features a new of track FINAL FANTASY XV. It is number 13 on the track list, but we are not able to hear it yet, the site will unlock the track in near future.

can't wait.. I am looking so much forward to hear the full FFXV OST of the godess.

 

[Kagari]

The last one was in 2008. Think about that.

 

[PshycoNinja]

Always more then happy to listen to Shimomura music.

The track is probably from the E3 Announcement Trailer.

 

[Soriku]

The last one was in 2008. Think about that.

Didn't the E3 trailer have a new track? This is probably it.

 

[GreenMakoEyes]

I won't think about it that much, coz it makes me sad.. very sad.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Just some up 1 minute ago. Or did I? Is this a dream?

 

[Kagari]

Didn't the E3 trailer have a new track? This is probably it.

Famitsu says the track is from a trailer so probably.

 

[Nephitamine]

Wow, every sample there is just simply amazing. I especially love what she's done with Vector to the Heavens and Aya's theme. Shimomura continues to impress.

 

[Thoraxes]

The real heroes are the orchestrators and arrangers.

They've done a good job judging by the samples.

If you guys like her work, check out drammatica, it's more of the same of this type stuff.

Without a doubt!

I do wish sometimes that Hamaguchi stuck around for video games more rather than moving on to anime (although hearing him open up more with actual compositions rather than simply orchestrations is pretty sweet) but especially Sachiko Miyano's orchestrations have been pretty damn baller.

Definitely! Good stuff all around.

 

[The Last One]

Vector to the Heavens is so beautiful, listen to it guys.

 

[Aeriscloud]

No ; ;
Don't make me ><

 

[GreenMakoEyes]

Famitsu says the track is from a trailer so probably.

unless I am mistaken the announcement trailer features two new tracks.. when the trailer displays the location Accordo at minute 1:32, I think a new track starts.

 

[RocBase]

can't wait.. I am looking so much forward to hear the full FFXV OST of the godess.

You have no idea how excited I am about this too. Was literally just listening to some rearranged tracks from the XV trailers on Youtube yesterday, and was telling me myself how I'd be more excited to get the OST than the game lol.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Samples are quite good. The 'Vector to the Heavens' track is so good.

 

[Frumix]

But which track is that? Newest trailer had two and there's one more unreleased one from the trailers of yonder. Hype either way.

 

[Slowdive]

Love her work. Looking forward to hear the new track, I've listened to Somnus a lot since it came out on Drammatica.

 

[raven777]

I really liked the E3 trailer music so I will be happy with this.

edit: listened to the samples. Vector to the Heavens is indeed beautiful.

 

[Dark_castle]

Can't wait.

 

[mclem]

"Everybody Hurts"?

 

[Haeralis The BRave]

Song name translates into "All the tears"

FFXV not at E3 confirmed?

 

[Mr. Wonderful]

Side note: I'm really interested in how Square-Enix does with breaking this game's plot into multiple entries. Given that they're planning on it from such an early stage, you would think they would be able to plan it out well and make it a good experience, story-wise, like Xenosaga, rather than the disgusting mess that is X-2 and XIII-2.

I think what they're probably trying to do with XV "world of Versus epic" is something like Ivalice Alliance. Each story that comes in individual instalments have its own plot and main characters, but taking place in different continents and timeline of the same universe.

 

[DNAbro]

Wow Shinomura did Forest Maze in Super Mario RPG? Absolutely love it and excited to hear the FFXV track.

 

[Chunky]

Pretty sure she did the whole OST. And she stuck around for the Mario&Luigi RPG's.

 

[injurai]

She composed the Mario & Luigi OSTs?

oh my golly I had no idea, those are some of my favorites of all time.

 

[Caelestis]

It'd be good to have the track without all the trailer noise in it, so at least something I guess.

 

[Shinta]

I'll have to check this out when I get home. I honestly haven't been terribly into any of the songs in the trailers so far, but it'll be a lot better to hear it separated out from all the sound effects.

 

[wmlk]

Thank you based Yoko-tan.

 

[qualitydisc]

Awwwww yeeeaaahhh I was so hoping this was gonna happen!
Looking forward to it.

 

[wmlk]

I was too happy and I called her based. She's not based since I can't hear it as of right now.

 

[Asd202]

So it's the trailer music and wow at the remixes at the site.

 

[qualitydisc]

So the 2 named songs we know from XV are both in Latin. All-Latin-named soundtrack?


Luv-luv-luving the Theme of Aya remix on the site. Parasite Eve is probably my favorite Shimomura soundtrack.

 

[Seven Force]

Damn, this is some good stuff. Love the PE track.

The last one was in 2008. Think about that.

 

[wmlk]

So the song title translated to English means "All the Tears". Well, none of the E3 music really sounded that depressing to me (the reveal had two, maybe?). The first part of the E3 trailer might be the one that's getting rearranged since that's the one that sounded at least somewhat sad.

The way Nomura talked about it and that would make most sense from a FF POV is that FFXV will tell a somewhat self-contained story. The example I've come up with is that the main story is about the crystal getting stolen and then, in the end of FFXV, they decide to destroy it completely not to let some evil dudez follow their plan of world domination/destruction/whatever. Then, FFXV-2 could be a telling about a world that is coping to living without any crystals. Or could be that they save the crystal and some kind of truce is decided upon after some overambitious Hitler of FFXV's world is taken care of, and that truce would allow all countries access to the crystal. Then FFXV-2 could be about some new, emerging threats that try to shake that peace.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

More Shimomura music is always a good thing.

 

[Lepcis Magna]

SE don't need to say it, but I'm excited.

For this soundtrack.

 

[Vans]

Oh my god! Guys! The final track is GOODBYE GENO from Super Mario RPG!

Oh my GOD!

 

[iavi]

Somnus almost single-handily kindled all the hype I had for Versus at the time. I hope this new track is as good.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

There being a XV track is quite possibly the least interesting thing about this album.

These are all wonderful arrangements of already fantastic themes. Love me some Shimomura.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

I really hope she uses (or they give the game a budget to allow) a full orchestra for the KH3 OST. She's really damn good at writing music that has emotion to it, and an orchestra brings that out even further.

 

[Isotope]

#2 is Forest maze from SMRPG.

Oh man, it's great.

 

[Amikami]

Forest maze and Vector to the Heavens(Xion's theme)! SO GOOOOOD! I need the full versions.

 

[HypocrisyGalore]

So the 2 named songs we know from XV are both in Latin. All-Latin-named soundtrack?


Luv-luv-luving the Theme of Aya remix on the site. Parasite Eve is probably my favorite Shimomura soundtrack.

SaGa Frontier II had an all German soundtrack.

The overuse of Latin is kinda annoying but the music is very good as usual.

 

[UrbanRats]

She did the music from the E3 trailer, right? That track was really great, and Vector to the Heavens is also awesome.

 

[HypocrisyGalore]

She's most likely doing most if not all the music in the game.

There were two E3 trailers, by the way, with two different tracks.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Should I have played any of the games on the bottom?
I love Shimomura, but I've only ever gotten to the Kingdom Hearts series and also her work in Xenoblade.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Mario RPG music?!?

Beware the Forest's Mushrooms sounds lovely.
