About this mod
Enhanced HD Audio Soundtrack (for Final Fantasy VIII Remastered)
- Permissions and credits
This music-mod is not a typical "arrangement", nor an "orchestral soundtrack"; instead, it is a full Remix of remixes and live performances of the tunes in the game (along with all of the above). This audio project is for the sake that the Remastered game did not receive any remastered music.
______________________________________________
E.D.A. is a full music module that replaces all tracks in the game with real instrumentations of themselves.
(Only 3 tracks are unaltered Vanilla : Liberi Fatali, Junction, and Julia's Piano.)
85% of the songs play as close to the originals as possible, 10% are progressive renditions of the battle songs (so if you draw for a long time, you don't hear the same thing), and 5% are liberty improvisations (replacing a few weird tunes such as the alien music and the time compression music).
Set Master Volume to 100, Music Volume to 40-50, and Sound Volume to 80-100.

This music mod should be called FF VIII:Remaxed,
for it navigates a narrow path between what is called Remastered, what would be Remake, and what are Remixes,
and only a work of virtuosity can bring justice to the creations of Nobuo Uematsu...
