Odd game music request

Post by fastbilly1 »

So I need help on something I didnt think I would ever have to ask for. But I am in desperate need for some more instrumental game music that is light and airey - not chiptune. The music is the prelude for my wedding this Saturday and my fiance wanted a few specific songs already so we just need to expand the set from the existing four to tenish. And since the original four were from games anyway, I figured what the heck, let them all be from games. So this is not my strongest skill when it comes to games which is why I am asking for help.

The sound we are trying to create is like the songs below:
The Girl who Stole the Stars - Chrono Cross:


Kakariko Village - Zelda 25th Anniversary concert:


We have a total of three songs from Chrono Cross - the other two I cannot think of. Any suggestions?

Xenoblade Chronicles has a lot of very nice music. One of my favorites is probably Memories, which is very similar to the Chrono Cross example you posted. There are a few others in that playlist that you also might be interested in.

Since you like Chrono Cross, I suggest you take a look at the Xenogears Orchestral Album. Same composer. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... A11D3C5D8D

and maybe?
Love Grows (FF8) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWbKOkd3OlM
Theme of Love (FF4) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKn50XFzV5s

That's all I can think off of the top of my head since I don't have access to my computer at home right now.

If you don't mind tossing in some indie games and not just retro ones, then Laura Shigihara's songs for the game To The Moon are heart-breakingly beautiful:

Guild Wars 2 Hoelbrak theme, Silvari theme and probably more.

To Zanarkand (title screen music from FFX)

Most of the character themes from FFXIII as well.

I always enjoyed the fable soundtrack, and there is music from when the hero gets married, only it has voice dialog...
