The Top 30 Relaxing JRPG Soundtracks To Listen To
Being the final game in a trilogy, Xenosaga Episode III concludes much of it’s open plot threads, including a rivalry between the android KOS-MOS and her other half, T-elos. The final standoff between them is accompanied by Hepatica (KOS-MOS), a moving track that’s sung emotionally not unlike a religious hymn. This variation of KOS-MOS’s theme references the themes of Christianity present throughout the series. More precisely, the melody seems to refer to Mary Magdalene, who resides within KOS-MOS’s heart.
The theme of Calista, the protagonist and deuteragonist in The Last Story. A wistful melancholy by Nobuo Uematsu with lyrics written by the founder of Final Fantasy, Hironobu Sakaguchi himself.
The swelling vocals of “Toberu mono” gives off a sense of isolation, which perhaps fits, as Calista yearns to travel the world and see its sights despite her sheltered noble life. It is perhaps one of Uematsu’s strongest works, despite being relatively unheard of compared to his Final Fantasy compositions.
Not too many people know of the sequel to Chrono Trigger called Radical Dreamers, which was a small text-based adventure that only released in Japan. Its premise became an inspiration for the eventual Chrono Cross, which would then cleverly be referred to in the ending theme, called “Radical Dreamers ~Unstolen Jewel~”.
A serene melody that finds strength in simplicity. The song carries itself using nothing more than the tune of a classical guitar as the singer wishes a prayer to a distant loved one across the abyss of time.
The ambience of “Moonlit Night” in Suikoden 2 seems to say that it’s okay to leave your worries behind and begin life anew. It’s a carefree track that’s carried by its substantial use of harmonicas to convey the sense of freedom.
Ironically, the track is actually played during one scene in a prison cell. Here, your character Riou has a heart-to-heart with his childhood friend Jowy, who fondly reminisce about their adventures together.
Despite being a game series from Japan, the Wild Arms games have crafted an identity for scores that are inspired by western sound. The overworld theme to Wild Arms 5 is certainly no different.
“A Vast Plain Under The Sky” makes use of a cheerful trumpet melody, helped by a calming harmonica sound, as well as banjos as accompaniment. Exploring the world to the tune of something out of an American western might not be what you’d expect in a JRPG, but it’s most definitely a good time.
