Hello everyone! I’m Nobuo Uematsu, the composer of Fantasian Neo Dimension.When Producer Hironobu Sakaguchi first contacted me about Fantasian, I had decided that this would be the last video game title which I’d produce the full soundtrack for, solely on my own.Because this was going to be my final full soundtrack project, I wanted to give it everything I had.
I rearranged my office—cluttered with non-work-related things that were there for fun—into something I call the “Fantasian mode,” so that I could corner myself creatively.
In the end, I spent several months dedicating myself to composing, and I have no regrets. Please enjoy Fantasian Neo Dimension, the culminating work that tops off my 30-plus years long career of composing full video game soundtracks!
Today, I’ll be introducing five of my favorite tracks from Fantasian Neo Dimension’s soundtrack. Composing the main theme for a game is always a headache.
I try to approach it with the mindset of “creating a track that’s better than anything I’ve ever made,” but progress tends to be slow when I take things too seriously.
