I'm glad of this decision as it forced the bar of piano texture and space that I wanted to achieve.\n'Final Fantasy VII' has always been the standout soundtrack for me with it's subsequent piano solo albums which my EP will take influence from, however 'Eyes On Me' is a beautiful piece that encompasses that connection between two people and all the shyness that clouds it early on.\nI spent many hours finding the right piano to use for this EP and have found a greatly textured one in the Native Instruments 'Una Corda' as endorsed by Nils Frahm (a big favourite of mine). The naked piano allows for great detail in texture and authenticity when using as a sample instrument and I love the intimacy and vulnerability that comes with it.\nI play a lot with pacing and the imperfections of live performance here. I feel this suits that vulnerability as mentioned before. Thus the new addition to the EP title: Imperfections.\nI hope you enjoy this piano piece as much as I've enjoyed putting it together and I would welcome ANY and ALL feedback whether piano player or not: Final Fantasy fan or not.\nMany thanks for listening and reading.\nComposed by Nobuo Uematsu", "organizations": [ { "names": { "en": "Matthew Walker", "ja": "Matthew Walker", "ja-latn": "Matthew Walker" }, "role": "publisher" }, { "link": "org/965", "names": { "en": "Bandcamp", "ja": "Bandcamp", "ja-latn": "Bandcamp" }, "role": "retailer" } ], "performers": [], "picture_full": "https://media.vgm.io/albums/80/146608/146608-3cd071cb44c3.jpg", "picture_small": "https://medium-media.vgm.io/albums/80/146608/146608-3cd071cb44c3.jpg", "picture_thumb": "https://thumb-media.vgm.io/albums/80/146608/146608-3cd071cb44c3.jpg", "platforms": [ "PC", "Sony PlayStation" ], "products": [ { "link": "product/189", "names": { "en": "FINAL FANTASY VIII", "ja": "ファイナルファンタジーVIII", "ja-latn": "FINAL FANTASY VIII" } } ], "publish_format": "Doujin/Indie", "publisher": { "names": { "en": "Matthew Walker", "ja": "Matthew Walker", "ja-latn": "Matthew Walker" }, "role": "publisher" }, "related": [ { "catalog": "PRT-8429", "link": "album/18536", "names": { "en": "EYES ON ME: featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII", "ja": "EYES ON ME: featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII", "ja-latn": "EYES ON ME: featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII" }, "type": "bonus" }, { "catalog": "TGCS-624", "link": "album/1521", "names": { "en": "FINAL FANTASY VIII original soundtrack special ...", "ja": "FINAL FANTASY VIII original soundtrack special ...", "ja-latn": "FINAL FANTASY VIII original soundtrack special ..." }, "type": "bonus" }, { "catalog": "TODT-5271", "link": "album/64", "names": { "en": "Eyes On Me ~featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII / Fa...", "ja": "Eyes On Me ~featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII / Fa...", "ja-latn": "Eyes On Me ~featured in FINAL FANTASY VIII / Fa..." }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "SSCX-10028", "link": "album/6", "names": { "en": "FINAL FANTASY VIII Original Soundtrack", "ja": "ファイナルファンタジーVIII オリジナル・サウンド...", "ja-latn": "FINAL FANTASY VIII Original Soundtrack" }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "SSCX-10037", "link": "album/79", "names": { "en": "FITHOS LUSEC WECOS VINOSEC: FINAL FANTASY VIII ...", "ja": "FITHOS LUSEC WECOS VINOSEC: FINAL FANTASY VIII ...", "ja-latn": "FITHOS LUSEC WECOS VINOSEC: FINAL FANTASY VIII ..." }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "TOCP-65350", "link": "album/106187", "names": { "en": "NOW 10 - THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC!", "ja": "NOW 10 - THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC!", "ja-latn": "NOW 10 - THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC!" }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "TOCP-64050", "link": "album/118320", "names": { "en": "Dancemania X5", "ja": "ダンスマニア X5", "ja-latn": "Dancemania X5" }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "SSCX-10041", "link": "album/66", "names": { "en": "Piano Collections FINAL FANTASY VIII", "ja": "ピアノ・コレクションズ ファイナルファンタジーVIII", "ja-latn": "Piano Collections FINAL FANTASY VIII" }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "TOCP-65404", "link": "album/130066", "names": { "en": "the most relaxing feel", "ja": "〜ザ・モスト・リラクシング〜フィール", "ja-latn": "the most relaxing feel" }, "type": "game" }, { "catalog": "TOCP-65410", "link": "album/130183", "names": { "en": "Love Ring BEST", "ja": "Love Ring BEST", "ja-latn": "Love Ring BEST" }, "type": "game" } ], "release_date": "2018-02-14", "release_events": [], "release_price": { "price": "Free" }, "reprints": [], "stores": [ { "link": "http://mwcomposer.bandcamp.com/track/eyes-on-me-from-final-fantasy-viii", "name": "Bandcamp" } ], "vgmdb_link": "https://vgmdb.net/album/146608?perpage=99999", "votes": 0 }
