Chrono Trigger Remix - Magus theme - "Atonement"

[MrHuxkyle]

Amazing, work of art for one of the best games ever made. Well done sirs

[DragonZeara]

That part at 1:00 is awesome!!

[14kevin14]

this is the guy bulma had an affair with before trunks was born

[dragonhunterdante]

VEGETA!1!!!!



[BlackDragonJitsu]

Why does Magus look like Trunks with long purple hair? O_O

[Chronitockk]

@BlackDragonJitsu

The guy who did dragonball did all of Chrono Trigger's art, plus the fmvs in the later versions.

[Metetorn]

@Chronitockk you forgot the dq series

[zeroflowne]

@BlackDragonJitsu Trunks has long purple hair too :p

[RockingSanta]

3.49, Magus cast Dark Matter.

[doid3r4s]

I love how you can hear Frog theme in the background after 3:00

[CronoCloud314]

"If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die... I must simply laugh!"

[robohobo]

I swear that drawing is just Vegeta with different hair.

[truechronomaster]

@robohobo You do know the creator of DBZ created this game right? Look at Dragon quest characters, Chrono Trigger characters, and DBZ characters, They all look similar

[fieryelf]

@truechronomaster He did the characters design for the Playstation game, he didn't do the game.

[hotboxingisfun]

@truechronomaster As I'm sure you've been told before, the artwork was done by the same guy that did Dragonball-Z and Dragon Warrior's art. The game itself was made by the same people who later would later combine again to make Blue Dragon, which was nowhere near Chrono Trigger's level.

[chrisharden13]

Magus was so original, then sepheroth came to be. Their brothers.

[TheValiantBob]

@chrisharden13 no. just no. one is a emo with mommy issues, while the other is a person that lost everything, his family, his home, hell, even his TIME PERIOD. he immediately gets set upon by monsters after getting flung to a strange time period, but uses his magic to take control of their entire race, all as a child mind, and get them to revere him as a god. then he leads them in war against the world, almost wins, only to double cross them for the purpose of destroying the destroyer.

[JJMerrill]

I play this at full volume while driving through town.

[myteethareshiny]

This song is pretty bad ass. It was always my favorite from CT, and now you have made it even better.

[VelenZaiga]

Why is it that we can't have a Magus Theme remixed that is NOT Rock & Roll, Metal, or any other kind of "Rock" music? Why can't it just be with an expanded orchestra in MIDI, like in Pro Tools for example (which I have used, and in my opinion, is far superior to anything else in terms of variety of selection).

Badass does not have to equal Rock music, Classical instruments can be every bit as badass. You just need the right instrumentation.

[PercepticStudios]

@VelenZaiga

Wanna take a look at my dubstep remix?

if its not your thing thats cool I just want some cc from people who actually know the song.

all my friends dont :(

[sam23416]

@VelenZaiga

Because if I could describe Magus as succinctly as possible, i would use the words "metal" or "brutal"

[Netheril666]

The black wind begins to blow

[Nintendoman01]

Excellent. Whoever did this is a genius!

[TheGlock80]

is it just me or does this guy look like supreme kai from dragon ball z?

and the chrono trigger main character is basically trunks with red hair. :|

besides that, This is Goddly!! \m/

[PoeticNightmare]

@TheGlock80 I always saw Crono is more of a Goku. The reason they look like DBZ characters is because Akira Toriyama did the character designs for Chrono Trigger.

[DarkEternal999]

@TheGlock80

And if you play the PSone(and I guess the DS version as well), in the final cutscene you can see Frog in his human form, at least from the back, and he looks oddly like Vegeta.

Akira is a God when it comes to monster designs and atmosphere. His human characters are all a bit... alike though.

[myteethareshiny]

@DarkEternal999 Yeah, have you seen the character designs for Dragon Quest? I can pick out a character from DBZ that matches each and every individual character for that series.

"Hey look! It's Bulma! It's Goku! It's Android 16! ...What? This isn't DBZ?"

[mithosledielrko]

@TheGlock80 he is the SUPREME KAI!

[hotboxingisfun]

Hut tut, Sir Magus!

[MilpzArt]

His junk looks crammed, but thats ok cus asians have small pee pee's ;)

[Crocadok]

The dak wind howls... YEEAAAAHHH ! :D

Epic remix of the Magus Theme, I knew Ocremix, now I'll go to Ocremix for donwload this epic awesome remix of the doom !

If History to change, LET IT CHANGE !!!

[Tr3s3ntos]

Magus is the perfect personification of a TRUE SORCERER

[PlacidDirge]

This remix is just epic! The beginning lets all who listen know it to.

[darkklown2004]

Janus lives on forever in the heart of Schala. Magus lives on forever in the hearts of his fans.

"Gone is the Kingdom of Zeal." - Magus

[MrKillerkobra]

lol i was fighting magus and i had to let my dogs do their buisness by the time i got inside cronno was alive with 1 health and then magus finished me of with dark matter and i was lv 99 max stats ultimate helms, weapons, everything

[bennyelguapo]

AWESOME REMIX!!

[butter7117]

why does he look like kabeto kai from dbz

[ultimatehedgehog123]

@butter7117

The dude that drew DBZ drew the images for Chrono Trigger

Never noticed how Crono looked kinda like Goku?

[meprim]

@ultimatehedgehog123 Akira Toriama

[darkvideo54]

@meprim Akira Toriyama*

[meprim]

@darkvideo54 mmhmm

[darkvideo54]

@meprim just a correction in his name for others who don't know him. :S

[meprim]

@darkvideo54 Yeah indeed some times I dont realise my typos

[meprim]

@butter7117 Kabeto Kai gone EPIC

[desolatefix]

just like magus himself brutal.

[qwertlolo]

its .org not .com

.com is a fake site, nothing virus-idle, but fake. just thought you should know.

[LordAcul]

Epicness times 9001

[Aeonknight]

Fuckin awesome. This is the epic theme a badass like Magus deserves.

[DaveThePuppetGuy]

So much more epic with electric guitar!

[FlamerasX]

Submit this to OCRemix! It's awesome.

[FlamerasX]

@FlamerasX I read the description AFTER posting this :P Oops.

[MrKillerkobra]

i am playing chrono triger right now and fighting magus i wish the had this song for the magus fight

[triemie1]

dude this reminds me of how awesome CT is man i wish they made CT 2 and a TWEWY 2 damn you Square Enix why are you waiting so long !!

[shadowfyst997]

@triemie1

They did. Its called Chono Cross. and they have already annoucned that there will be no sequal to TWEWY, although i agree that a second one would be badass.

[Dakashizzlenizzle]

love the instrument parts in this

[nekomata667]

This song makes me want to punt a puppy into the uterus of a pregnant senior citizen! I love it!!!!! CHRON TRIGGER 4 LIFE!

[cloudtkd21]

GREAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT THE BEST REMIX!

[TheRaven878]

IM GETTING FRIGGIN GOOSEBUMPS FROM THIS THEME!!!!

[Ved0000]

Best way to describe him is an anti-hero. Like Han Solo or Mel Gibson in Mad Max.

[PlacidDirge]

This remix is awesome!

[MasterEmeraldX]

i think I just came....

[SabreMatt311]

For me, it was always Frog or Magus. I always picked Frog(Glenn).

[boostedflange]

This song makes the dark wind howl.

[KyoushuAbunai]

Magus reminds me of a DBZ character o_o

[GanjaSmokei]

@KyoushuAbunai Artists from DBZ Worked on CT

[JumpMax]

@KyoushuAbunai

thats because its drawn by the same artist ^^

[KyoushuAbunai]

@JumpMax @GanjaSmokei <_> derp!

Thanks for the answers

[Aotenshi82]

Holy shi~~ I like it a lot, best remix i ever heard!!!

[BlackValkyire]

need.mp3.

[HiddenAbilities]

DUde this remix pwns!

[CPBlazier]

magus dominates luca blight! he'd obliterate that whiny bitch in a snap! Though he was a complete faggot dickwad in the Chrono Cross game, I bet he can still pwn your asses

[siriustoast]

I love Magus, he's my ultimate favorite, save for, of course, Schala.

[devman133]

truly epic remix

[dominicandx]

This would be his theme if magas became just a pinch more badass

[siriustoast]

@dominicandx Magus IS incredibly badass. This is his theme if they revamped the game to be more modern sounding.

[MrHuxkyle]

omg....epic in everyway

[templar19]

I don't know why, but the aucostic guitar at 1:02 seems to really add a new facet to Magus' character, not a soft spot, but it's like you can get a glimpse of the kind-hearted boy he used to be.

[richter3456]

"The black wind begins to blow. Okay...give me your best shot...if you're prepared for the void!"

Magus is awesome.

[HardbeatAcolyte]

CT, Magus & OC Remix all FTW :P

[up4sonic]

Simply Amazing

[2220glen]

this remix should be in the game

[KhagarBalugrak]

EPIC FAIL.

[kurahosan]

Wow... this is so awesome!!! Magus is one of my favorite characters in the game and practically ever in video games. and this remix of his theme is just incredible!!!

MAGUS RULES!!!!! <3

[GrandElemental]

Incredible arragement!

Made by one of the best remixers in the internet, from one of the best battle themes of all time. Seriously, how could someone not love this? =)

[ShadedRogue]

I tried that link in the info box, but it doesn't seem to be one that works.

[ShadedRogue]

That's effing insane. I get shivers.

[Setzergabbini]

@mrmastodon32690 Likewise. Either that, or on some palythrogh's the Masumne's holder.

[Kabawank]

Hot Damn. That Was Too Epic. I just beat this again, and I gotta say Magus is the greatest, if most slept on, anti-hero ever created.

[tomm4rktravis]

Next to Sephiroth

[aguraxxx]

too Slow, except this, good enough, enjoy :)

[swordofluminesence]

I always found it funny that you could change Magus' name once he joined you.

It's like, WTF? "HEY I HATE YOUR NAME, LET'S CHANGE IT!!! :D"

Why?

[soredemo22142]

@swordofluminesence lol

[Dakashizzlenizzle]

@swordofluminesence ironic you said that, i changed everyones name except him ROFL

[SariaSchala]

@swordofluminesence Yeah, and then everyone starts calling him by the new name. *now has a burning desire to rename Magus "Kitty" or something just for lulz*

[FaceZSB]

I love this remix.

*Added to playlist*

[Armas875]

I don't care if half the vid is blank or not that shit was just plain BAD ASS

[soredemo22142]

"yes indeed"

(just like half of the bosses game moves lol)

[ZombieCyclops]

The black wind howls...

One among you will shortly perish.

[soredemo22142]

@ZombieCyclops lol that was the most epic line ive heard for fitting this song.

[Viikinki666]

When the acoustic rhytm kicked in, that shit gave me chills, awesome stuff! 5/5

[Akabane011]

omg its...BEAUTIFUL

[sucharitakuls]

Best Magus theme song ever!!!! 5 stars :D

[goodnobakes]

If History is to change. LET IT CHANGE!

if the world is to be destroyed..... SO BE IT

if my Destiny is to die.... i must simply LAUGH

Magus OWNS everyone and everything!

[GarredHATES]

@goodnobakes he didn't own Chrono and Glenn, or Lavos....or Time Devourer o3o pretty much everyone who he cared about defeating kicked his ass.

[goodnobakes]

@GarredHATES WELL.... in his keep when you fight him, he's been somewhat weakened by summoning lavos, with Lavos he was too blinded by hatred to Focus, and with the dream devourer, besides the fact that it's SOOOO powerful, that was magus from a different dimension, one in which he is much weaker.

[GarredHATES]

@goodnobakes still doesn't change the fact that he got his ass kicked :P

[003animetal]

@goodnobakes FUCK YEAHHH MAGUS THE BEST.

[phobophobe]

too damn slow

[brettmaverick81]

This is FAR the best version for Magus Theme!

[ElKilloman]

Magus castin spell- Magus cast spell Dark Matter! magus strongest Attack!

[Setzergabbini]

@ElKilloman Am I the only one to notice that it's exactly like Grand Train from FF6.

Mind you, the attack looks Badass anyways, so I dosen't really "Matter"

[DarkEternal999]

As much as I like Magus, I also liked Frog. The first time I played the game I killed Magus with Frog. It seemed the most proper and epic way to end their storyline by Frog getting his revenge that devoured him for years, and this version of the song while their battle went would be most appropriate.

[ElKilloman]

yes i also make the same mistake...... then i have to star all over the game aggain ¬¬'

[expertfighter]

well it seems that magus hasn't been killed by frog,he'll reincarnate in chrono cross,i suppose he went eternal thanks to his father king zeal

[whatthefuck66666]

Perfect remix for a desperate battle.

[yumetallica]

YEAH! Very FODA!

[bobipineman]

Is the same illustrator of dragon ball?

[RBekkit]

Yeah, same geezer did the character doodles for DBZ and Chrono trigger PSX & DS

[KenshinHimura10]

That explains Magus having a sort of Piccolo look going on and then Crono with his Goku like hair.. ;P

[sebasdiabloo]

actually, magus= kibitoshin lookalike

crono= trunks-goku lookalike

lucca: young bulma

ayla: tenshin han's girlfriend. the one that sneezed and went crazy

[Scavenger88]

Akira has designed both chrono trigger and dragonball

[itslikeadrill]

This...

This is god-tier.

[sirsmokesalot777]

Fuck yo couch! Magus.

[DesertTornado]

I can just imagine...Magus...at the end of Chrono Trigger walking away into the distance...not able to remember anything.

[WinstonFisher]

Now, if I could only find a properly orchestrated remix of Magus' theme. The Chrono symphonic version just did not do Magus' theme any justice at all. Does anyone know of any good orchestral versions?

[sirsmokesalot777]

atonement is the perfect name for this, i can imagine frogs pounding heart when he finally catches up to magus to avenge his bro. rock on chrono rock on

[GaritTheAllMighty]

DO you know if there is any sheet music or tablature of this? I have it figured out for the most part but there are stil la few things perplexing me. Thx.

[WinstonFisher]

The remix was good and all, but the drums were absolutely phenomenal. This man should be knighted for making the drums so epic.

[MaverickXIII]

piccolo and vegeta fusion, magus is fucking badass, not to mention Frog too, what am i saying every character in the game is awesome!

[callananthiena]

This feels more heroic and tragic, which Magus certainly is.

[darkkyosukecrono]

Nice Remix,yeah it's a little slow,but, who cares?!..this is Cool!

Thanks for the upload! ^_^

5/5

[aurdis]

Thanks! I do what I can, I heard this forever ago, and there was a time I lost it and was dying to hear it. Thought I'd upload for others to hear this great mix!

[Beremor]

Nice atmosphere, the music itself is awesome. But it's a bit too slow for Magus ... It sounds more like a theme for a slow, heavy person, like Ganondorf from the Zelda series. Other than that, as said, it's awesome.

[dyzziedyazn]

wow. this is the most epic version of magus' theme I have ever heard!!!!!!!!!!!!!

at 3:00 you can hear frog's theme overlay everything very faintly and it just brings absolute tears to my eyes. I love this!!

[aurdis]

I know!!!! It's amazing!!! Glad you love it!

[GenMathis74]

@dyzziedyazn dude!! props!! you HAVE to be a REAL CT fan to notice that. And you sho are. i tab game music (Nobuo Uematsu stuff is my fav) and i didnt even notice it till i read your post. and CT is by far my favorite game of all time. NICE! thnx!

[dyzziedyazn]

@GenMathis74 Thanks dude =P. Yeah it becomes very obvious after you realize its there lol. I almost wonder how people can miss it now but I think that's only because I always deliberately listen for it now haha

[MaliusEpiphany]

I really like this one Q_Q

[Insanecoolperson]

XD I remember listening to this years ago on OCRemix XD I loved it then and still like it today ;P

[CJWilly]

F*ck me this is awesome.

[sirsmokesalot777]

all you computer jockeys need to enjoy each piece of music for its own unique values, this song goes along great when i'm stomping magus into the pavement!

[CCrockyourass]

Oh wow, WAY too slow. The original was so much more fast paced...if there was a true metal version of Magus's theme I would be all over it.

[RsmvRemix]

Megadriver made one.

[GeraldRobotnik]

Uh, quite the contrary, this is one of the best remixes I EVER heard. xD;

[dmoogle2006]

Agreed.

[2o6GoLdeNgLocK]

this version is pretty fucking dope! Janus is the shit.. him an Lu Bu are bad ass ehgyeah

[Tiars666tiamat]

A awesome song indeed man. MegaDriver recently made a metal cover of Magus' Theme. I made a video and uploaded it.

[crayonne99]

Mâo is the best !

[zedog546]

lol, wuts wit the long silence at the end? lol, great song nevertheless

[xerowrestling]

Descriptions for videos do wonders.

[super5patchM]

Magus is the best

[MeowTheMouse]

sounds star craftish

[Neonmagic]

Magus is epic.

[finalfantasy4VI]

Dream Devourer > Time Devourer

[ZXAgamer]

whatever if he are the same thing i dont care the name is the same shit

[adamschwartze]

A great song gets a great remix.

[GrandElemental]

Darangen is a great remixer, indeed! I love this arragement and the original is superb as well. Nice! :)

[ZXAgamer]

THe bads RULES !!!!!!!!!!!!

BOWSER

LAVOS

OMEGA

AND muCH oTHER

[pianomaster24]

now this is more like it!!! this remix is worthy of the total badness that is Magus/Janus. The man is an antihero through and through, and antiheroes need a kick-butt theme. Shadow's got one, Kratos has one, and so does Magus.

[boostedflange]

ya he summons the destroyer of the world, to own him and make him his bitch. It's what badasses do.

[STDealer]

A villain doesn't summon the destroyer of the world to kill him.

[AtticusRh0des]

Magus/Janus does.

[FinalFantasyXXVI]

correct, cause actually he's not a villain, he just has his own story

[NetMoverSitan]

@FinalFantasyXXVI Neutral alignment as he fights for any that can aid his in his objectives (e.g. Destroy Lavos, among others)

[FinalFantasyXXVI]

@NetMoverSitan whoa.. posted this a year ago man :D

this game is still the best ever

[tsukasaofthevirus]

Magus is flat out the MAN!

good to see a badass Scythe wielding villain

[xelink]

you haven't played the game through, he's more an anti-hero than a villain. His motives aren't as simple as one might think at first.
