I really like his covers.

I'd really like to see a modern jrpg that uses different instruments and styles to convey the progress or areas a character advances through. Something like this folkish music for the backwoods town most mcs start in, with later industrial areas being more synth or 80s. A few games have come close, but they never go all out. I expect its because all those musicians would be expensive, so they stick to something smaller.

like how cool would it be if you started a castlevania in a backwoods town and this was playing

then you get to the castle, the gate shuts and lightening strikes and it morphs into this

"oh shit, shit just got real son"

Wild Arms pretty much did that. It had a lot of old west style music when you entered towns.

This is one of those games where the Genesis really crushes it with its music. The PC Engine game sounds great, while the Genesis version just has this sound of power to it.
