Chrono Symphonic Extravaganza
« on: June 22, 2005, 03:01:55 am »
Chrono Symphonic, a project to rework Chrono Trigger's greatest tunes into orchestral scores, is speeding along nicely and has a hopeful release date of September 29th. Today, I'm proud to present to you the Chrono Symphonic Extravaganza, an in-depth look on the project's history, with interviews from the effort's creator, Claado Shou, as well as spotlights on several remixers, who talk about their contributions to the project and why they enjoy working with Mitsuda and Uematsu's masterful muzak. I hope you enjoy!

The organization of the chrono community always amazes me. I don't think any other game could boast such active fan content. I am very much looking forward to this release.

After watching the trailer, a few question if I may:

1. Is the cd going to be released along with some kind of a short movie?
Because the trailer was mainly composed out of cut-sences from the PS version of CT.....
I guess not, but just making sure. ;)


2. I noticed that many of the people who are working on the project are well known from  OCRemix and VGMix and have contributed many great works on the past.

Are we expected to get completly orchestral scores or some of the tracks have already been released on OCRemix / VGMix in the past?

1. The trailer may or may not be on the two-CD set that is up for download...it depends on whether or not the downloader wants it.  I don't think we'll be including it in the main torrent file, however, due to space considerations for 28/56k users.  But no, there is no "movie" being released, despite various claims.

2. Yes they are great (even the unknown ones, trust me :)) and yes, each track will be orchestral, or at least, instrumental only.  No electronica here.  Additionally, one of the songs on the project was already on OCR, and another was posted on VGMix a while before the project started.  They just worked so well with the script that I asked for their inclusion.

I was looking at your site (www.chronosymphonic.com) and I looked at the CT movie script, did you make it?

he seems well done and I was wondering making a WHOLE Chrono Script for a orchestral representation seems like they have a large group working on that.

Yes, I did write the script, and yes, we do have a large team working on it.  Check out the Remixers section of the website to see everyone involved.

Also, thank you for the compliment.  It's appreciated. :)

So far, the feature has gotten around 800 general hits (just for the project summary). I didn't count the other pages.

And also, the Chrono Symphonic website is getting close to 100 hits a day.  Interesting numbers, indeed.
