Sorry about the 10 second fade to black in the video. Guess I messed something up in editing but TOO LATE NOW muahahaha. I blame Golbez.

[@Aendolin]

The fiend!

[@dmoogle2006]

You were just travelling through a hidden wall path.

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

No worries. Anyone who's done video work before (I have) has made mistakes before. At least your lovely playing on the audio channel wasn't part of the glitchy fade.

[@DisposedHeroVGM]

Fun fact: The original line those chicks that were hitting on Cyan in FF6 were supposed to say was "Are you from Damcyan Castle because DAMN CYAN!" Source: I made it up. Oh yeah nice cover btw

[@Omni0404]

I will never unlearn this.

[@michaeleccher4068]

That’s so strange I always think of cyan for this one 😂

[@AnimalisaKeys]

That's hilarious because I always think "Damn Cyan" in my head but never knew why! Thanks for explaining. But really, with some of the dialogue in FF IV it wouldn't surprise me if this was true haha

[@wessummers2371]

Such a haunting and melancholic song

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Indeed

[@shirayasha]

3:42 I love how this song incorporates the overworld theme in it

[@AnimalisaKeys]

It's one of my favorite Final Fantasy leitmotifs! It even sneakily appears in Battle 2 hehe

[@Omni0404]

Spoony bard!

[@AnimalisaKeys]

One of the saddest but then suddenly funniest video game moments

[@nathanh6439]

That's some good nostalgia right there. Really kicks a guy in the feels.

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Right?! Love this game

[@AnimusInvidious]

Your ff4 renditions really convey the moodiness effectively.

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you!!!

[@mat15rodrig]

[@InnerMotionMusic]

Amazingly beautiful!

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thanks :)

[@HighZ]

Definitely sad songs and that first one was super spooky like a spiral staircase

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Mario 64 endless staircase when

[@HighZ]

@@AnimalisaKeys Some say he's still recording it to this day

[@LydianMaster]

Bah, fade to black just added dramatic effect. You've really done this game justice, damn near put a tear in my eye. Well done gurl 😎🤘

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Haha thank you :)

[@matty5492]

I didn't realize what an awesome song "Damcyan Castle" was until now. You are ridiculously talented.

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you!!!

[@Spare_Ombres]

Hey Annalisa, that was so awesome, thanks for sharing! Those musics have so great memories for me!

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you!!!

[@machinaeZER0]

Really beautiful arrangements ❤

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you :)

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

Wonderful as always, Animalisa. As I continue to think about what music I'll implement for DD4's upcoming 12.12.24 launch video, it's always nice to hear these kinds of moving pieces. Reminds me why 80's video game music was so inspiring to me as a child. Even if absolutely no one else I knew back then could properly "listen" through the 8-bit digital limitations. 30+ years later, their lack of vision hasn't changed, either. Very interesting.

[@BenjaminStenlund89]

Wounderful!👍

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thanks :)

[@FirahFabe]

Sad Feels 😭 Beautiful playing that really evokes the sadness as it resolves with a happy note at the end 😊 I've heard many of Sorrow and Loss, such a nice track, but not often I hear Damcyan Castle, so it was great to hear this playing too~~

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Awwww thank you!! Yeah I love playing some of the hidden gems you don't get to hear often :)

[@ajarthur99]

I forgot how beautiful Damcyan was. This was beautiful!

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you! It's such a pretty, melancholy tune

[@MrMLD1972]

💝

[@Naeddyr]

Oh wow, Damcyan Castle has to be one of the most obscure FF songs; I've found only two mp3s of it in my huge FF soundtrack hoard... I had to look up the original to even realized it existed. This rendition is really nice, better than the original!

[@AnimalisaKeys]

Thank you! I love discovering hidden gems in these old soundtracks

[@Yafinkso]
