The SNES has its limitations (8 sound channels, sound effects can compete for estate on the channel unless the music is composed in such a way that it takes up less channels while dedicating one or more just to sound effects, only one note per channel meaning no layered notes and chords on the same channel, limited audio RAM that necessitates compression and optimization), but a skilled composer with the right samples can make the most out of the console's sound capabilities. It's why you can have games with nothing but dinky default MIDI samples alongside titles with borderline CD quality audio on the same console.

Nunca me ha gustado la saga Shin Megami Tensei, y ni hablar de la saga Persona, pero este tema me gusta bastante, yo leí los libros de la saga "Digital Devil Stories" escuchando esta canción en bucle.
Now that you mention it, they do sound similar. In fact, it makes sense, as both that game's soundtrack and SMTI's soundtrack were composed by Tsukasa Masuko!
All of this information came from cursory scans over Wikipedia pages, so I advise you to perform your own research if you're interested, but here is what I can gather. The entire symbol builds upon the Seal of Solomon, a sigil based on the legendary ring said to grant King Solomon command over demons and other supernatural entities, becoming a powerful symbol in magic and occultism. Written into the border of the seal is the phrase "Quod superius Macroprosopus, quod inferius Microprosopus," a modified paraphrase of a longer Latin phrase meaning "That which is above is like to that which is below," originating in the Hermetic text known as the Emerald Tablet. It is often understood to call attention to the effects that the greater universe has on the individual human being. The modification in question here is is the addition of the words "Macroprosopus" (Arich Anpin) and "Microprosopus" (Zeir Anpin). The former is an aspect of Kabbalistic Divine emanation known as Keter, the Divine Will, while the latter comprises the emotional sephirot attributes. The former is the macrocosmic equivalent of the latter, while the latter is the microcosmic equivalent of the former. I'm not sure why they're included together in this phrase, but there does seem to be a connection here. The letters in the four outside corners of the hexagram spell out "AGLA," a magic word appearing in some charms, widely considered an abbreviation of the Hebrew phrase Atā gībōr ləʿōlām ʾĂḏōnāy, a phrase used in Kabbala. It translates to "Thou, O Lord, art mighty forever." What it truly means isn't yet fully determined. In Hebrew, it is rendered as "אגלא." The other two characters in the corners of the hexagram are the capitalized versions of "Alpha" and "Omega," the first and last letters in the Greek alphabet and are likely most well known for their use as the title of God and Christ in the Book of Revelations. Finally, we have the word being spelled out in the other parts of the hexagram: "Tetragrammaton," which refers to the four-letter Hebrew name for the Abrahamic God, known commonly as "Yahweh" or "Jehovah." Those four letters are "יהוה" in Hebrew and commonly rendered as "YHVH" in Latin scripts. This is also how it is rendered for the Shin Megami Tensei series.

"Sorry for speeding, officer - I was listening to Ginza from Shin Megami Tensei"
I still can't believe how powerful the sound chip for the Super Famicom was. Makes me appreciate the wonderful musicians we had during the late 90s.
Don't you mean early 90s?
Especially on those megaten games. Man these rock!!
fr, these guys made the best musics ever !
It's Sony SP7000 PCM synth chip ruclips.net/video/lA3LzyH6cEg/видео.html

I've never played a main smt game that being said I've played smt if and persona 1 so looking back on this its pretty cool
If is a main smt game
@@charlyj1321 if... is indeed in the core SMT saga but not in the same timeline.
@@ikagura As far as continuity goes, the most we can get is SMT I-II, III-V and IV-IVA (Don't quote me on these) and SJ-SJR, otherwise, there isn't exactly continuity unless you count Cerberus and Stephen
@@everettwatsonrazorearcwolf6553 technically they are all connected somehow as different like universes through the Amalaverse if we trust TDE.
smt if is just persona for cool kids
Thanks for this. Ginza is by far my favorite theme.
You're the GOAT for extending this one. One of my favorites off the ost
@Toroko King GOAT = Greatest of all time
@Toroko King lol
@@narukamiseta122 nice pfp
@@pump7857 thanks
It's also the arena theme or w/e they called it in SMT 4
This song always gave me a huge vibe from the sound of heavy metal in the late 80s. That's why I like it
Thanks for this! Right on to the study playlist
My mission has been successful, then! Glad you enjoy it.
Good stuff, it's nice how this theme seems to be liked by everyone who plays this game.
Just absolute god-tier dungeon music
i agree
It’s a good song.
I find it interesting how they pitched this down when they reused it in If.
Thank you so much for extending the SFC version! I love how it sounds, much appreciated. ❤
Still the best 1992
The character whom I am fondest of is "Takeshi" (he's the person in the trench coat and armed with a pistol).
That's not Takeshi, that's Yuka (the heroine)
Takeshi was the guy with MP5 submachine gun
FINALLY AN EXTENSION OF THIS VERSION OF THE SONG THANK YOU
Thanks for that extension dude, needed that because the other ones fade out after the song, looping it, is honestly jarring. Not this one though!
I'm glad you enjoy it! Unfortunately, I can hear tiny mistakes I've made here and there in my own work. Going by ear is a bit difficult.
Me lo escuche como 30 veces y no lo dejo de escuchar❤️
You know, I could totally picture this in F-Zero x)
Thanks for hosting!
You're welcome. Thanks for listening!
i love smt1 ost, its bangin
I love this theme!
Good to see you’re still here, kinda. This song is also heard in rockman claw in cutmans stage.
Ultra bangerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
This song also plays on the world of sloth on SMT If...
My favourite music to listen when I'm browsing internet
Acabo de conocer este tema hoy, y ya lo he escuchado como 20 veces y todavía no ha llegado la hora de comer.
En SMT IV hay una versión remastered de este tema
Still bangerrrrrr
waooooooooooo no puedo crreerlo encontre una joya de joyas brilla con luz propia por su rareza y su estilo musical avanzado que salta inclusive hasta las mejores musicas de megaman x 5 waoooooooooooooooo que hit esto es un gran tesoro al menos en mi opinion waoooooooo si si si 😎😎😮😮😮😮😮😮😮, ademas no sabia que este juego tenia su arigen en la consola famicon ¡¡¡¡!!!!
1:04 Slightly familiar beat in Undertale encounter OST
Oh wow, I hear it now.
Might be an intentional callback on Toby's part, but I doubt it.
@@Squiddy0912 considering he was supposedly inspired by smt it very much could be intentional

Never heard of the name but the song is good
Finding this video after having an smt binge has been a surreal experience. Fuckin bop tbh
I believe this is a remix of the theme song from T&C Surf Designs for the NES by LJN.
Now that you mention it, they do sound similar. In fact, it makes sense, as both that game's soundtrack and SMTI's soundtrack were composed by Tsukasa Masuko!
I watch and listen only with Pascal
Helluva boss x shin megami tensei
I have Stockholm syndrome with both this area, and track.
