The Brink of Time Track 1 - Chrono Trigger

[OKaneMerbach]

The strings at 2:25 make it.

[sombersin]

1 fucking minute and 12 seconds of build up followed by shit. Thanks.

[SmokingSpoon]

The Chrono trigger is an egg... mmm... I wonder.

[blueshotgun017]

@SmokingSpoon oh damn i finally get the cover art now.

[blueshotgun017]

@SmokingSpoon oh damn i finally get the cover art now.

[MegaMan7045]

Crono, welcome to New Orleans.

[captainparady]

trumpet is nice in this music :P

[SuperRoboKai]

Someone cooked the time egg by mistake.

[kkeelan]

@SuperRoboKai

I wonder if cooked Chrono Trigger eggs suffer from being over easy.

*drum roll* I'm sorry, I had to!

[EINSTEINGROOVIN]

Mmm. My Chrono Trigger just fired. Oops!

[Katana991]

"It's the beginning of a new and an excitingly different story!"

Awesome line! :)

[9999necron]

This sounds like it could be a theme song for an 80's "buddy cop" show like Miami Vice. haha.

[Frenzouille]

The guitar sucks, violins are not that good, and the global mixing doesn't make justice to the music - but to me the bass and the trumpet are pretty good !

[michzimmerman]

@Frenzouille Wow, THE Frenzouille from the world-famous... uh, wait, what recording studio should we know your work from? What score was it that you composed and arranged?

Let's see... Yasunori Mitsuda had just conned Square into letting him score the Chrono Trigger soundtrack from being known for nothing more than sound effects and sat down at the mixing board to create a live album for the first time in his life. And it was 1995 in Japan. But yeah, this should have been way better, right?

[PBAudio91]

@michzimmerman my hero right here

[PorroFirst]

That's a weird cover for a Chrono Trigger album.

[OddPersona]

Far out, man.

[frankoblanko]

i liek this alot idk what chrone trigger is but i like it

[KingRalis]

this song reminds me kind of sesame street

[mastersgta1]

@KingRalis No offence, but I don't know what kind of sesame street you've been watching... lol

[whiplikeflagela]

this is flippin' great, the bass is sooo funky!

[ScythedAngel]

I'm obsessed.

[KohdaiAoyama]

Wow!!! Amazing!!! So cool!!!

[tm2jetfire]

I just wish this existed in vinyl format. That would be great to have.

[WyldOrbit]

THIS SONG IS FUCKIN SMASHIN!!!!!!!!

[ihate2signinyoutuify]

Best thing I listened to all week!

[alkseregion]

I must say that I never cared about jazz, even being a musician. But, when I heard this first song and, in the same day, the music "Tank!" from the Seatbelts (opening music for the Cowboy bebop series), i became a fan of the genre.

These single two songs made me search, listen, and like musicians like Charlie Parker, Nat King Cole and Art Blakey. Thank you Mistuda!

[dirty96imp]

I always have bacon and eggs with my Chrono Trigger! Everybody knows that!

[davethomas]

@dirty96imp They need milk, toast, and cereal to make it a balanced breakfest.

[szv202]

@dirty96imp Of course we do, sir!

[biologicalcomponent]

This is a great track! I'm trying to find similar music...does anyone have any suggestions?

[DylanTMathews]

If you are looking for a similar trumpet style... you could look at Randy Brecker (Look up "Some Skunk Funk Brecker Brothers" It was a group of Randy with his brother, Michael, back when he was alive (he died around 2007 or 2008.) Randy still does some stuff, played with Jaco Pastorious in his Word of Mouth group.

[parsixteen]

I haven't heard this in ages. Thanks for posting the tracks!

[agetro82]

i remember listening to the power station in my town, they had this song playing in the background while the radio DJ talked about current events. really cool

[neptronix]

this is really amazing, man. thanks for posting it up.

[protozerox]

I just bought this album on play-asia. thanks for reminding me how awesome it is :D

[pappasman360]

i wouldn't call chrono trigger a mainstream game. Guitar hero is a mainstream game.

[Zero6421]

@pappasman360 Chrono Trigger is highly considered a mainstream game, in the same way that The Legends of Zelda a Link to the Past and Metroid are; while Guitar Hero is a more recent mainstream game, the Classic games are still none-the-less mainstream. Most people call Chrono Trigger the undefeated RPG champ, still holding its title over recent titles in all categories (i.e. story, game-play, graphics, etc.).

I remember hearing these tracks way back in the day, really brings back the memories.

[karitheninja]

What the fuck is up with the cover?

[hathorliderc]

Just because it's celebrated by older generations, doesn't necessarily make it all that mainstream.

[BoonanzaMaster]

i love this song :D FUCK YEAHXD

[Grimmshadowz]

Um...in your review thing you say something about it being from a relatively unheard of game. Well, I am not sure if you know this, but Chrono Trigger may be one of the most celebrated RPG's of all time and is extremely well known of.

[gdreyband]

No offense intended but I believe you misread it a bit. Namely:

"Those of you that are familiar with my account might be surprised to see me uploading music from such a mainstream game."

And in case you ask, no I haven't changed the description.

[johntetzel]

@gdreyband I think the confusion stemmed from the part of the description that says "because it's from a relatively unheard of game" when you probably meant "relatively unheard of album." And I've never met someone in person that has heard Brink of Time except for me, even gamer or Square fans, kind of like Celtic Moon. This remix is one of my favorites, and I haven't heard it in like 10 years, so thanks for posting.

[HeadphoneHalo]

@johntetzel It's not a remix, though.

[PowerBadger]

@Grimmshadowz He was saying that he thinks it's more important to upload music from rare or unheard-of games but this particular collection doesn't seem to be completed anywhere else.

[FreaperX]

hehe, very nice :D

[GreenHairedKaiba]

Thanks for uploading all of The Brink of Time! It is so great that they made jazz versions out of all of the songs. Chrono Trigger is the best!
