Summary: <p>Greetings, Gamers! This time around, all of our Very Good Music will follow a very specific theme. Nobuo Uematsu is probably the most famous video game music composer in the world. As such, we're going to hone in on a very small but significant corner of his library: Final Fantasy Character Themes!</p> <p>Our songs today come from Final Fantasies IV, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X and run the gamut from slow and somber to soaring and heroic. We hope you enjoy this unique take on a composer focus as we look at the work of one of game music's greatest of all time.</p> <p>Thanks as always to our amazing patrons and the artists who made our show art and theme song. You, too, can become a patron at patreon.com/vgmvgm, and you can reach out to us one of these ways:</p> <p>Discord: https://discord.gg/qpbXPdCf2N</p> <p>Twitter: @VGMpod and @Shootkapow</p> <p>E-mail: verygoodmusicvgm@gmail.com</p> <p>Voicemail: Anchor.com/vgmvgm. </p> <p>You can also leave us a comment on YouTube and while you're at it, please let us know if you like the video, and subscribe and ring the bell to be notified of future episodes!
