Mix: Masks We Wear

[ultranos]

surreallis asked me for a music mix of instrumental music: "it needs to evoke feeling. I'd love it to be lush or sad or angsty or painful, but without vocals.". I added "heroic" and "determined" to that list too. The mix is actually purely video game music, and from mostly two composers: Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy series) and Shoji Meguro (Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series). There are a few tracks by composer Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, and Xenogears), but it ended up as a near-perfect split between Uematsu and Meguro.
