The _Forest Maze_ music in both original and the remake shows that Yoko Shimomura captures the fairy tale aura that feels like walking through the unknown place full of magic and mystery while facing the dires and hazards like a medieval hero.
I like how you made the video image looks exactly like the one posted 16 years ago Edit: Where the heck did you people come from ? (Thanks for the likes)
With how absolutely *_AMAZING_* my experience with the Distant Worlds: Music From Final Fantasy concert was back in September, this would be AWESOME! Another big dream would be to get a concert but for Chrono Trigger!
2nd best bet is to get a pair of headphones that support spatial audio. Here's to hoping whoever provides the streaming service with this audio track supports it as well. Surround sound galore.
I don't know if anyone else noticed, but the Geno HD image references an old video of the same song Forest Maze from 16 years ago. Here is the video and make comparisons: ruclips.net/video/vkailb3xcTI/видео.htmlfeature=shared
The part that gets me the most "omg KH!" Are the small flourishes at 0:35, since they have become a somehow recurring identifier for the kh3 dearly beloved used in the secret forest theme and later in union cross's dearly beloved megamedley credits
I KID YOU NOT, I actually started breaking down CRYING in sheer JOY when I heard this! It’s like I’m actually there with an orchestra! This has been one of my favorite songs in gaming for YEARS, and for it to have been remade into something THIS good, EXCEEDING my OUTSTANDINGLY high expectations for this song in particular, this beloved tune was done TRUE justice! You can really tell that Yoko Shimomura had a lot of fun revisiting this piece!
I knew this would come at some point, but I wasn't ready... just sat there in silence listening for a full 5 minutes or so before continuing. This is a masterpiece!
Yoko didn't just remake it she literally added a second part that sounds deLIGHTful. Gosh this is so much better than the og. there's like an oboe missing in one specific part but literally who cares it's double the length and all the instruments are sublime
I get ya, my dad rented me this game when young, when playing this game again couldnt help feel a knot in the gut of pure nostalgia, i really miss my dad.

In 1996 she only had a MIDI. Now, she was given a full orchestra to play with. Of course she was going to compose the heck of her beloved OST. Especially this. The best track in the whole game.
Fun fact: this melody uses all three "parallel" minor modes: dorian, phrygian and aeolian. Making it an excellent exercise for hearing the different shades of minor tonality- in this case, in C# minor. (or F# m for the aeolian section) The tune even ends with a major Picardy third!
I can't believe they replicated the beauty that was the original so perfectly. This really is a Super Mario RPG. Also, I know it's been mentioned to death, but the detail to remake the ToolOtaku video makes this even better. Thank you.

This game is reminding me that the violin is the best instrument in the world. 1:06 Violin started crying and I joined with it. With all the hype, the game getting number 1 on the best sellers right now and most anticipated back in September (over Wonder and FF7Rebirth!), please don’t abandon this game again Nintendo. If Geno or Mallow don’t make it into the next Smash game as a fighter or anything else, I’ll be more surprised than seeing the roster get down in half.
The additional strings at 1:07 was completely unnecessary, but holy crap does that make the song so much better. Also the additional flutters at certain points. They didn’t have to go this hard
Super Mario-oO RPG it is the game made for you and me! Exiting the forest is super simple, all you do is follow these paths turns for the rest of your gaming life.

Makes a grown man cry... I loved the arrangement and composition of this chart. MUSIC NERD WARNING I absolutely loved how everything blended well within each other. Woodwinds were immaculate in this piece, especially the 2nd loop when you can hear the bassoons. Then the violin solo hits and it just feels like warm bread and butter to the ears. I even like the mallet percussion used in this. Yoko outdid herself with this arrangement
i loved this song and still do it's so good and amazing and to know the one who made this happen put a second part to it makes me even happier thank u Yoko Shimomura
This is one of these pieces of music that has an unusual quality that even if you've never heard it before, the music sounds almost inherently familiar like it's like a direct link to the mysterious world of our collective unconscious and it's pulled out of there.
@@ivythay4259 I agree with the sentiment of being open minded about new things, but sometimes revisiting old tracks does lose the essence of the originals, because the original tracks were composed specifically to sound good within the limitations of retro hardware, without those limitations it's easy for the iconic melodies of the original tracks to get drowned out by the higher quality samples, extra layers of the song, different audio balancing... As much as she is in my top 3 of videogame composers, even Shimomura isn't perfect when it comes to revisiting her old tracks, there's plenty of tracks in KH2 and Mario & Luigi where I prefer the originals to the modernized tracks she made for the remasters/remakes of those games

Took the words right out of my mouth. This remake version sounds both fantastical yet has an underlying sense of danger

Where the heck did you people come from ? (Thanks for the likes)
That's what I thought! LOL
i was thinking the same thing
from ToolOtaku?
The attention to detail is insane, God damn!
It all comes in full circles.
I'd pay to watch this at a concert and not just cus it sounds beautiful, but to get the max feeling of being in a forest maze

They didn't remake it, they poured their emotions into it..
This implies the original song was soulless…
@@cookieblobber
It wasn’t to begin with. Yoko’s just putting extra soul into it.
They did remake it
What's your point
@@TanookyTeneka
I think he meant “They didn’t JUST remake it”.
Yeah. Especially in 1:06 where the violin added the melodramatic touch.
Just when I thought that this music couldn’t get any more iconic, they hit us with this: 1:05
Agreed
Definitely gives it a sort of "Kingdom Hearts" feel imo.
That violin sound is so beautiful

now a whole new generation will look up the forest maze track on youtube with Geno on a white background :P
I did not expect those strings at 1:06 wow!
I love how just like this game is a remake, this video is also a remake of the one from 16 years ago with the original soundtrack.
I like how this video have this exact same picture of Geno like that one upload from 16 years ago, but in high definition
I just want to give Yoko Shimomura a hug.
And ask her an autograph.
and kiss her on the lips
This is one of the best written melodies in the medium. So simple, yet so perfectly crafted.
Got immediate Kingdom Hearts vibes when the violin came in at 1:06
Same
Yoko loves her some countermelodies!
The part that gets me the most "omg KH!" Are the small flourishes at 0:35, since they have become a somehow recurring identifier for the kh3 dearly beloved used in the secret forest theme and later in union cross's dearly beloved megamedley credits

The best track in the whole game.
This. This is how you remake a song.
Toadofsky and his tadpole orchestra just riffing the best damn theme of the game.
I love that this is a nod to the upload of the original song from ToolOtaku's channel lol
It sounds just like the magical feeling of Winter! Even if it isn’t a winter song
I appreciate that you basically remastered the video with original OST
Just wow....😊 yoko really outdid herself this time! I think she knows that everyone loves this theme so she put extra love into it ❤
Fun fact: this melody uses all three "parallel" minor modes: dorian, phrygian and aeolian. Making it an excellent exercise for hearing the different shades of minor tonality- in this case, in C# minor. (or F# m for the aeolian section)

man, what i most loved about that video is the reference to the old one, man, thats good

Amazing remix of this song! They did such a good job remixing the music for this song!
I appreciate you remaking the original youtube rip of this as well
they knew this was one of the most iconic themes in the game and they put special effort into this one. they even made the loop longer.
Ehem as someone who hasnt played the game ,"and my name is booster" sweeps/s
Probably my favorite part of the game when I was kid. Still hasn’t changed decades later. Hearing this just solidified it.
and it's just a picture of Geno on purpose to mimic the ancient Forest Maze videos I assume
