Could this be the most epic Final Fantasy music track of all time? It's certainly a strong contender, so I got @LaceyJohnsonMusic, @GuitarSVD, @ViolinGamer, and @MusicOnTheDLo onboard for this fast-paced jazz fusion collab of the amazing battle track from Final Fantasy XIII-2!

Fans of this channel know that Final Fantasy XIII has one of my favorite soundtracks of all time and is also one of my favorite games ever. While I have played the game and have covered several tracks from it (including The Promise, Prelude, and Hanging Edge), I haven't experienced much of it's sequel XIII-2. While I did cover one track from the game (the main theme Wishes) and have listened to a few tracks in the OST, I never really expressed as much interest in this game as the original. However, one day I was just randomly watching the fighting game streamer dekillsage and heard some amazing music in the background. Turns out it was this piece! I knew right away that I had to cover this.
For this ambitious arrangement, I wanted to cover all the basses that the original tune did with its funky and fast-paced jazz fusion style. For that, I got some familiar faces and some new friends to join me on the tune! Make sure y'all show some love to Lacey Johnson on electric guitar, ViolinGamer on violin, GuitarSVD on acoustic guitar, and Music on the D Lo on bass!
Hope y'all enjoy this cover, it was a long time coming but I'm very proud of the final product. All the collaborators killed it and it's just a great vibe all around. Make sure to leave a like if you enjoyed this to help support the effort put into this track!
Your pianist,
DS
