Final Fantasy VII Music Arrangement Spotlight: MK III

by December 11, 2011 0 comments


Hello and welcome to the third in our continuing Final Fantasy Music spotlight feature.

Today, we’re back to something more specific to Final Fantasy Seven, Cid’s theme.

This particular arrangement is by SongLeReveur, who you can follow on facebook if you like his work.

Here, we’ll let the artist speak for his own work, where he says “Before I get any comment about the sound/mix/instrument playing: YES it’s supposed to sound like that. I decided to use some dirty and imperfect takes, with guitar out of tune (well, the vibrato bar helps) and bongos sometime out of rythm. It fits better with Cid’s character, I think.”

Without further ado, sit down and drink your goddamn tea for four minutes forty seconds as you enjoy the song.
You can listen to the song via the streampad application, by clicking here, or right clicking to save the MP3.

    The song really comes into its own in the second half. I love the feel. Kinda slow rock, nice and mellow

    This has been one of my favorite themes for YEARS, and this is a fantastic arrangement of it. And I love that the arranger considered things like Cid’s character. It does sound sort of “Essence of Cid,” doesn’t it? 😀
