Front Mission 3 Original Soundtrack

Addenda
The Front Mission 3 original soundtrack is provided by Ogre Battle symphonic orchestrator Hayato Matsuo and Chou Aniki composer Koji Hayama. The game contains some notable tracks but mostly chooses to eschew the series' gritty, dystopian roots. In the OST's liner notes, Matsuo writes, "I worked on the BGM for this game together with Hayama-kun, but as I personally love Front Mission, composing the music was an enjoyable process. Producer Toshiro Tsuchida was very clear in the images he wanted for the music, but left all the details up to us, so I think we were able to operate with great creativity. There is plenty of variety in the music, with orchestral tracks, and rhythm and synth based music, so it aims to give you a sense of the game's complexity, diversity and human drama. Thanks to the Square Sound staff, who programmed the music into the actual machine, that the sound quality in the game turned out so high. In the case of games, there are material restrictions on sound channels and tone quality, but because of this staff, we were able to realize a music that scaled at least some of those walls. Thanks for lending me this space to write. And thank you to everyone listening to this soundtrack. If you can relive the world of Front Mission through this soundtrack even when not playing the game, I'll be very pleased."
