Sound Test: BGM 08 - Final Fantasy IX "Over the Hills"
Final Fantasy IX isn't my favorite game in Square's ubiquitous RPG series, yet I still feel that it is somewhat underrated. Among its highlights was its extremely charming soundtrack. Longtime series composer Nobuo Uematsu has stated that it is his favorite Final Fantasy soundtrack, and while I wouldn't quite go that far in my praise, I would have to agree that it's among his best. I particularly like this overworld track "Over the Hills". This breezy little melody combines electronic bloops and traditional instrumentation to great effect, building over time and looping with a satisfying and somewhat wistful release. Enjoy!
