Radiant Silvergun (ABCA-5043)
 I recently stumbled on this one and I have to say it is a work of genius. It makes me wonder about other OST's of Hitoshi Sakimoto. Most of the songs sound really like Final Fantasy Tactics. There are two parts of this OST. Sakimoto begins really quite with the themes in concert hall style. Then there is a place of silence which gives the return to a more exhilarated version of the presented themes in the first section of the OST. This soundtrack was for Sega Saturn, which is the main reason why I didn't bother listening to it, because the sound would be of low quality. But as I was curious about Sakimoto's works it seemed that you could do a lot with low quality sound too. It also reminds me of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance OST where you also have the orchestrated version and the in game version of the soundtracks. I have to say that every soundtrack on this CD is epic with a huge sense of rhythm. The harmony sounds like Vagrant Story and the rhythm reminds me of FFT. Also very important is the use of violin pizzicatos just like in FFXII. I especially like "Debris". I account this OST as one of his finest works, you should try out this OST and tell me how you like it! It's especially for the FFT OST fans! There is also another catalog number, I think a re-release of the OST, I'm not sure: TYCY-5613 Jam it back in, in the dark.

So, other than FFT, FFTA, BOF5, Vagrant Story, FFXII and this. Which of the other older soundtracks of Sakimoto would you recommend me?
I like battle music and rhythm. There's nowhere I can't reach. |

I even composed a song in the style of Radiant Silvergun, anyone care to listen and give an opinion? It's called "Pride" and stands on number one of my list. (see signature) Don't worry, it sounds even better than some of Sakimoto's works, so it's not a low quality midi file or something.
Debris has an unusual, creative rhythm that I adore! Sega Saturn sound: I never listened to any Sega Saturn music. But I just "assumed" it was bad, because Saturn failed the market and Playstation didn't. Wrong logic, I know. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
