FM synth brass and tight percussion, pure PC-98 strategy RPG energy. Farland Story: Tenshi no Namida dropped in 1994 and the soundtrack carries that mid-90s Japanese PC sound with pride. "Blast of Wind" rips open with an urgent melody that screams deployment phase.

"Truth Force" has this noble, chest-pounding quality that makes you believe your underleveled units can win. Then "Lotus Eater" comes in with something dreamier and weirder, like the game pausing to show you a vision. The FM chip work here is excellent.
Tight compositions that squeeze real emotion out of limited hardware. "Death Gate" and "Desert" show off range without ever losing that crunchy warmth. Perfect listening for anyone who thinks the PC-98 was the golden age of SRPG soundtracks.
