You know, growing up with FFVIII as my first FF game and hearing this song at such a pivotal moment of the game, it is quite nostalgic for me, but I must admit, the saxophone at the opening wasn't in my opinion, a choice that has aged super well. So I was listening to this, and I thought, if I replaced that sax and really built up those chords to a full orchestra, it could be pretty epic. I also felt like the song is literally about the essential destruction of reality, and I wanted to capture that idea in this arrangement. So I tried it out, and here we are. I hope you like my rendition of Compression of Time from FFVIII! Let me know if I should do a more epic version. Or a longform relaxing version, for that matter!

Thanks goes to Square Enix for this great game and Nobuo Uematsu for the original music! I own none of the rights.
