Episode 72 - Final Interpretation II

Since 1999, OverClocked ReMix (https://ocremix.org/) has been a part of the video game music community. It began as a showcase of game music from fans, and it’s grown into a library with years of history and game remixes. The community began releasing themed albums full of songs in 2003, and several of those albums have covered various Final Fantasy games. This is the second of two episodes featuring those albums, and this one focuses on the OCRemix albums for the PlayStation era Final Fantasy games.

Special thanks for this episode goes out to:

If you’re listening on Spotify, please be aware that they’ve pulled a few of my episodes before. There’s a non-zero chance that they’ll eventually pull my entire podcast, as they’ve done with a few other game music podcasts, so I’d strongly suggest you subscribe elsewhere to be sure you can get all of the Professor Tom goodness you crave.
