To have a video game soundtrack in the top 20 of an @officialcharts UK ALBUM CHART, and the top 10 of another, is an incredible achievement indeed! ❤️🎮🎶

Massive congratulations to @lorien_testard, Alice Duport-Percier and all at Clair Obscur @expedition33 @SandfallGames!

[Distant Worlds: music from FINAL FANTASY @ffdistantworlds]

Warriors of Light and Darkness!

SQUARE ENIX and AWR Records are proud to present Distant Worlds VII: more music from FINAL FANTASY! As part of our celebration of @FinalFantasyXIV and @finalfantasyxvi , Distant Worlds VII contains the premiere recordings of orchestral concert arrangements of @SOKENsquareenix's compositions from FFXVI including “Away,” “Ascension,” “Find the Flame,” and “My Star!” Pieces from FFXIV include fan-favorite “Flow” sung by original vocalist @Amanda_Achen and “The Final Day” from ENDWALKER.

Produced and conducted by the legendary Maestro Arnie Roth, Distant Worlds VII also includes many works by the great godfather of FINAL FANTASY music, @UematsuNobuo, from 1987’s FINAL FANTASY I through 2024’s FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH. Original FINAL FANTASY X vocalist RIKKI lends her incredible talents to a stirring performance of “Suteki da ne” from FINAL FANTASY X, and famed NieR vocalist @emirevans delivers an ethereal performance of “Distant Worlds” from @FFXI_EN. The program is rounded out by our new all-orchestra recording of “Dancing Mad” from FINAL FANTASY VI and @midiplex's classic “Valse di Fantastica” from @FFXVEN.

This collection is not to be missed!

@xxTIDDYxx You should actually just vote for whatever you want. All choices are good if music is the winner.

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

@grantkirkhope You say that, but if new ClassicFM video game show host @dantdm told all his followers to vote for video games in the chart, and they did, it would literally be a clean sweep of games stuff!

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

Video games, it’s video game scores you should vote for.

[Classic FM @ClassicFM]

The Classic FM Hall of Fame, the world’s biggest poll of classical music tastes, is open for 2025. And we need your votes! 🎻

Symphony or concerto, opera or ballet music, film or video game score, vote for your three favourite pieces of music here 👉 https://t.co/YJIeKvNhhT

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

Off the back of this, @dantdm I hope you'll remind listeners they can vote for a TON of video game music in the Hall of Fame chart when it opens

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

This is a smart move by Classic FM. A great way to get a completely new audience in and more support for VGM on the channel (and just ahead of this year's Hall of Fame vote). No mention of WHY they started playing VGM in 2012 in the news story though.

@RichStokesy @RoyalAlbertHall You'll definitely enjoy.

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

@choiby @GoldenJoysticks @lu_la_re Lovely performance. Couldn't find you afterwards to say that in person, but saying it here.

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

That was the best bit to be fair. #goldenjoysticks

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

@RichStokesy Is it though? Making the music available to everyone easily is the only real step in the right direction. Nintendo gonna Nintendo.

[Classic VG Music @ClassicVGMusic]

I'm late to the party on this, but surely, this is not the way anybody wants to listen your music, Nintendo. This does not integrate with my Spotify playlist. At all. Do better. Please.

[植松伸夫 (Nobuo Uematsu) -con TIKI- @UematsuNobuo]

Wait, wait, wait!
Everybody calm down!
There seems to be some misunderstanding, but I'm not retiring from video game music work!

I'm going to cut back a bit on my video game music work because I want to have more time to make the music I want to make. It would be difficult for me to take on the entire soundtrack of a video game because the time commitment for composing would be too long, but I would like to continue to work on jobs such as one theme song.

So, we are waiting for your offer to Nobuo Uematsu con TIKI!
