Sure seen a lot of Final Fantasy lately - trust me, it's not a vast square-wing conspiracy, things just turned out that way. This techno boss piece comes courtesy of Standby, one half of which is actually WhoAmI, who gave us a nice obscure Green Beret mix a while back. This time he's paired up with a friend and produced something a little more mainstream, in terms of both music and more obviously game choice. For the most part, this is straightforward, hard-hitting & direct techno coverage, but a few details make it a bit more interesting and elevate it above a typical bread-and-butter electronica adaptation. These would include the interesting shift to a muted, room reverb at 1'05" - not something you hear very often, and it worked well here, as well as the interesting victory music segue into rimshot at 3'20" - curious + quirky way to end things. As an amusing anecdote, as I was listening to this the first time, I heard an extended voice sample of some guy talking about sales, marketability, and merchandisiing, for a good ten seconds, and figured it was part of the song - maybe some sort of statement on the mainstream mass-market appeal of FF, who knows :) . . . turned out there was a pop-up ad running with delayed audio that happened to chime in RIGHT at a moment that actually seemed quite musical / intentional. The second time I realized what had happened, but it took me a second. Anyway, an enjoyable submission from Standby that should please those already established as fans of FF techno.
