Style: VGM
Primary Emotions/Themes: A continued showcase of the PS1 soundchip and the wonderful compositions of Nobou Uematsu
Thoughts: Melodies of Life is the third installment in the Final Fantasy IX collection of records. I do not have the second installment in my collection, but I have enough of the soundtrack to enjoy the wonderful music that it brings.
This third record covers the last portion of the soundtrack, the part of the game that I never got to or played. I lost interest in the game around the second disc, and never went back to complete it. I may try it again at some point, but right now it's not something I'm interested in.
The music however is wonderful. It is at the very height of what I would consider the golden years of Mr. Uematsu's composition prowess. I think at this point I may just grab the CD set as the record is nearly impossible to get at this point. Regardless, this record stands as a wonderful conclusion to a phenomenal soundtrack.
