notes: 'This is my entry for the 2022 GameGrooves Album Challenge, and it''s also
  the very first album of video game music that I''ve been able to release on Bandcamp.
  Although I tried to figure out a theme, I ultimately settled on just doing pieces
  that I love. I always have a hard time picking just one genre, so I decided to try
  representing a few different musical styles across this album. Each of these games
  (Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy III, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, Xenogears)
  has had a huge impact on my life, and I''m grateful for the opportunity to share
  this music with you.

  Ian Martyn - vocals, low whistle, Irish bouzouki, accordion, bass, guitar, piano,
  drum programming, mixing, mastering

  Tracks 1 and 3 composed by Nobuo Uematsu.

  Track 2 composed by Shota Shimizu based on a piece by Yasunori Mitsuda.

  Track 4 composed by Noriko Matsueda and Takahito Eguchi with lyrics by Kazushige
  Nojima, adapted into English by Brian Gray.

  Track 5 composed by Yasunori Mitsuda with lyrics by Masato Kato.

  All arrangements by Ian Martyn.
