It’s been a long time coming, but Battle on the Big Bridge has finally arrived!
Initially, I was going to do this song sometime in 2013. In fact, I had a lot of stuff recorded for it (drums, bass, and maybe some rhythm guitar), but I never got around to finishing it up.
Since then, I’ve been meaning to get this song done but just haven’t been able to squeeze it in. A few weeks before this song was released, we crossed the 100,000 subscriber milestone on Youtube, so I decided to do a few highly requested songs to celebrate. What better way to start off than with this long awaited song I’ve been promising for years?
I did something a little different in this remix: I based it off of the Piano Collections version, which includes a key change in the middle of the song that transitions back to the original key, and has a big growing outro section. If you listen to that version, you’ll hear a lot of the similarities. I don’t think the PC version ever gets referenced, so I thought it’d be neat to acknowledge it.
Have you noticed 3 of the past 4 songs have been from Final Fantasy games? :O
