DISC 2

Disc2 track33-track 36 commentary.

Recently, I found a strange tape with the sticker, said that “song for love, by T. Sekito”, while I was tidy up my desk.
As I was giggling about a success of finding this tape, thinking that “This must be some kind of mistake!?” Mr. Yamanaka, who was accidentally walking through the room, caught me at the exact moment.

Today, it is finally the release date for the soundtrack of “THE LAST REMNANT”.
This exclusive blog continues only until a week from Today. I will do my best till then!

Well, today`s guest on this blog is…
The busiest man of the team, the director of “THE LAST REMNANT”, Mr. Takai!!!
Let us begin!

============================================
Good evening!
I am Takai, the director of “THE LAST REMNANT”.

Has everyone had a great time playing “THE LAST REMNANT”?
The game itself contains quite large amount of data, I think.
I hope everyone is reaching towards the end of the game.

I imagine that the player has found many great tracks of Mr. Seiko’s music in the game.
I am extremely happy with the music that Mr. Sekito has composed and I am very thankful to his work. Especially he has managed to compose many tracks for the battle.

As I look back, it was 3 years ago when the producer told me that who would like to use for our composer for the game. I remember that I told him with my instant answer, saying that” Mr. Sekito!” at the time.
I still think that I made my decision truly right.

Looking back, as well as it seems like a good old days, I really do not feel that it seem like the end of the development. Rather, all the staff seems to be busy working.
Well, they really are working their heads off, intensely to be exact.
I would not feel to stop them working though.

All the staff, including me, we are constantly working at various things for our game development.
I am very confident to say that after new-year, we will be able to give some great news for everyone.

Best regards

The director Takai

============================================

That's right! It really is a great memory looking back our time.

We will start with the commentary of 33th track of Disc 2.


■33.Gwayn's Bellow

■34.The Remnant of Fear

■35.Marion's Blessing

【Mr. Yagi comments; 】
This event describes the existence of massive power of Remnant itself. I wanted to deliver the message that the world exists in such a fragile balance even if the world seems perfectly in peace. I hope the player would be able to read my message from seeing this event.

【Mr. Sekito comments;】
This event is one of the most important events for the story of “THE LAST REMNANT”

■36.Whispers of the Ancients(music:Yamanaka)

【Mr. Yamanaka comments;】
This track is for a dungeon of ancient ruins. I composed with the approach of symphonic orchestration as oppose to the other music from dungeon part of the game.
I tried to capture the theme of ancient atmosphere by adding thumping drums, like an avalanche.

【Mr. Sekito comments; 】
Since today is a very special day of the release date for the soundtrack,
We will introduce the commentary of Disc 3 as well!!!

Please hold tight for the next commentary.
