The Synthetic Origins series has finally reached its conclusion with the release of the Final Fantasy VI soundtrack remastered in all its glory. This series has been a labor of love for many fans, including myself, who have always wondered what the music from the original games would have sounded like if it were not edited down to fit the limitations of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

As I delved deeper into the world of video game music, I stumbled upon a community on Discord called VGM & Other Instrument Sources where fans would share information about the sources of various games' instruments and samples. This sparked my curiosity, and I went on a rompler hunt to learn more about the original instrumentation used in many classic games.

One of the most memorable moments for me was when I saw a video showcasing the Final Fantasy VI soundtrack being played back from a Roland Sound Canvas player. It was breathtaking, and it made me realize just how much detail and complexity had been lost in the editing process.

Fast forward to mid-2021, when Square Enix announced the release of Pixel Remaster, a new version of FF 1 to FF6 with remastered soundtracks. This prompted me to revisit my own project of remastering the music from these games, particularly Final Fantasy V and VI.

After completing the FF5 release, I was thrilled to announce that the FF6 release is now complete. It's been a long and challenging process, but it's been worth it to share this music with fans around the world.

For those interested in downloading the final fantasy 6 soundtrack, you can find it as a free download on Mathew Valente's YouTube channel. The album features some amazing tracks, including Troian Beauty originally from Final Fantasy IV, arranged using an unused/prototype track from Final Fantasy VI.

So, if you're looking for a taste of what the music from these classic games would have sounded like in its original form, be sure to check out this remastered soundtrack. It's a true masterpiece that will transport you back to a bygone era of gaming and music.
