  1. I absolutely love the remixes of old themes or from past FF games but a new piece like this is a breath of fresh air. I find most Pandemonium music to be a slow burn, they truly grow on you.

  2. Listening this with headphones gets to really experience the instrument used for this theme.
    You don't get to pay much attention during a fight but this is really well done

  3. To be fair, my favorite part on this song is around 1:00, when that simple melody comes to a halt, and then a very low D note comes crashing down with the voice over it, that has a really "hellish" vibe to me. This one would be a beast to remake in 8 bit 😮

  4. Pretty boring, feels like it lacks direction imo. No great hook or hype moments. Way too similar to the Void Ark raids which are run pretty frequently, so it lacks in the freshness category as well. It feels more like going through a haunted house or castle than a fight.

  5. Great song, but kind of slow-paced for a battle theme making it pretty easy to get ignored. Music like Kefka's theme, Titan's theme, Shiva's theme in old raids make me shake my head no matter how many times I died there.
    All pandaemonium's themes are good but not that fast head-shaking kind of music, not suitable to listen to them during an eight-hour battle trying to kill a red chicken. Every time my team was wiped in savage, I'd prefer some hot and fast-paced music to encourage us to move forward and try again.
    I will listen to this in my spare time when I want some good music, but not in Pandaemonium. Three bosses share this same music and the fourth one is the same melody, just turn the iTune on and try something else.

  6. Somewhere and some time ago at SE studio…

    Soken: “… so, last fight is a guy who’s like a vampire?”
    Yoshi: “yep”
    Soken: “so… hm. Something like Mozart but in a castlevania way?”
    Yoshi: “sure. Just make it a banger esp for the 4th fight too”
    Soken: “👌 say less fam”
