After months of dedication, we have finally finished this massive project!
The Chrono Cross soundtrack is truly awe-inspiring. The feeling of each track perfectly adheres to the part of the game it represents. For this medley, we tried our hardest to preserve the integrity of Mitsuda's work while adding in our own stylistic changes as well. It took a lot of time and effort, but in the end it was definitely worth it.
As a personal note, this collaboration has really enhanced my skills in many aspects of youtube video/music creation. Not only did I greatly expand my knowledge of video editing and what my software is capable of, but I also expanded my knowledge of the audio recording process (mic positionings, room importance, etc). Overall, this was a great experience for me and hopefully my friends and I will create more massive online collaborations like this one in the future!
And a huge thanks to Dr. Whitaker for giving me permission to use my college's percussion! :)

Coming back to this delicious medley. We all did such an amazing job
YESH
HatTrax
Seriously, you guys are so good. I've spent the better part of the past 4 years alone in my room studying and getting through it by listening to video game covers. The whole community of video game cover people is amazing. This might be the best one I've ever seen and I've seen a lot. There's so much great stuff. You guys are the good side of the internet! You need to keep making more!
Mike Britton Thanks so much! This was the culmination of a lot of hard work and dedication on everyone's part.
HatTrax you guys did an amazing job. Definitely earned a subscriber
This will always be one of my favorites :)
My favorite part of the video intro of Chrono Cross is when Kid reaches out to the players as if trying to pull the players into the game world.
It was a pleasure working with you all, thanks for having me
mklachu I love your channel!!
Nothing better than come back and hear this again.
It is very beautiful 😍 I'm standing here I'm fully nude like a grown man next to my Frederick prokosch book of poetry
I'm drunk I'm drunk like a grown man
I am drunk and naked thinking about Frederick prokosch while
Of course I come back to this epicness after I watch those Chrono Cross Radical dreamer Remake trailer and announcement 2 hours ago!
2 weeks left, and i can't wait any longer xD came here to listen this again for the 10000000 time... bad decision, i'm even more excited, can't wait!
I will always love everyone who had the smallest part in making this happen. I swear I cry EVERY TIME I watch this.
The feels. There is just way too much talent in this video.
You too are really talented! I absolutely love your corridors of time cover and the top ten stuff
@TheRealNinjaGuy300 He sure hated the Lizard Dance if you look at the time stamp it looks like he couldn't wait to get out of that song soon enough. Too bad. I love that song.
46 years old and still love CC and it's music. Great cover.
I'm 57 and I still love CC. It's one of the best RPGs ever.
Its 2020 and I'm still so lost in this Medley's absolute beauty, my ears rejoice every time I hear it. ;-;
So do I... Even though i didn't played the game when it was released.
I listen this OST since 2000 when I played the game for the first time. And I will listen it until the last day of my life...
It brings tears to my eyes when I find out females know where this music originates from.
Are a big fan of the game?
I wanted to be rich enough to pay for a Chrono Cross remake
me 2
How much money we need to make remake?
@@joeaaaa some millions :)
I just want a remaster ported to phones and Steam
Same here bro . . .
This is so amazing!!! Truly one of the best OST's of all time, and your group nailed it!!!! Man... Thank you so much for using my footage!
I watch your playthrough of Chrono Cross all the time, I went for a nostalgia dive into the music and sure enough you are here too! Small world.
@@saskscott26 It's sad the alt corporate right have f'ked the web up.
I have a 6 month old foster child who CANNOT sleep without this medley. This collaboration is absolutely beautiful and a surprising blessing to our family. Thank you all for your videos. PLEASE consider putting these in itunes. Would gladly pay for your hard work. Would be well deserved.
I hope you introduce your foster child to the amazing game that is Chrono Cross, one day.
@@holyordersol2668 one day....
That child is going to be brilliant.......
My 12 year old son used to fall asleep with ost CD1 when he was a baby. Usually, time's scars was enough. Beautiful memories.
or spotify
Under-appreciated game, under-appreciated video.
You're damn right..
Hey, just not too popular. It's among the very few games received an overall 10/10 on the old gamespot XD
@@samle1801 Damn, you're old. But its true, it WAS NOT Under-appreciated game AT ALL. Gamespot gave this game 10/10, and all gaming magazine at that time in my country put Sarge, Kidd & Lynx at least 3 times and all of them gave praises and walkthourgh and all of its multiple choices variants.
I don't think its an under-appreciated game, just not well known. Square Soft could do no wrong on the PS1
If anything Chrono Cross is over appreciated.
One of the BEST soundtracks ever made for a game.
Just recently found this medley and it's just.... perfect.
Thank you so much for doing this, the Chrono Cross OST helped me a lot through some very hard times in my life, and listening to this medley I can see how far I've come from those times.
Truly a beautiful work on Mitsuda's side and your cover is beautiful
It's about to be 2023 and I just found this for the first time. It's 9 years old and not only stands up, it sounds fantastic. Rivals some of Marc Papeghin's stuff!
偶然見つけてクオリティの高さにびっくりしました！ラジカルドリーマーズがゲームで発売されるニュースを見たので記念に。
Mr. Mitsuda would be proud.
Exactly, and the game stays fresh in my mind because I played it about 1-2 months ago, and I guarantee Yasunori Mitsuda would be proud
He did chrono trigger, xenogears and chrono cross back to back to back. Omfg if these musicians played xenogears I would......omg.....
Playing Chrono Cross was something very deep and incredible to me. I've played FFVIII too, it's a very good game, but Chrono Cross, Chrono Cross is something else. It's very complex and sentimental, and the music, is flawless. I'll never forget the feeling I got while I played it. Thank you for sharing this to all of us, and congratulations to all who participated in this amazing medley. Cheers!
+Retzmer Totally agree with you, FFVIII is awesome, but CC is a masterpiece for me
I feel the same way. It holds even greater sentiment for me, bc this was my first RPG, let alone JRPG.
I have no idea what compelled my father to bring the game home, but I will never forget the day I came home from school one spring day to find Chrono Cross sitting on my PS1.
this game was my first RPG I played when senior high school. That feeling so incredible..especially for the iconic music..seriously,when I show the game to my wife,she just silent,smile and hug me..hahaha...so many thanks for this video and chrono cross team!!
Hmm... what do you hold higher? Chrono Cross or Xenogears? Its a difficult question.
I never liked FFVIII, even though it doesn't deserve the hate it gets, one could agree it was probably the worst one of the 2nd generation, but it takes a more in-depth philosophical view of the events than usual in a FF, like chrono cross does, but cross does it far better, because it has a whole universe to work with (not always for the best though, the dragon's/reptile story was awful, except for the jester), and has some far more memorable areas revolving around the same themes (time compression with ultimecia/ dimensions and time stop with fate) like dead sea/chronopolis compared to Ultimecia's castle and clock tower.
2019 and still listening to this masterpiece, such a great morning when your arrangement is playing!
Em 2021, voltando no tempo com a trilha sonora no meu jogo favorito. Essa galera é incrível.
Remasterizado tá chegando daí o TH-cam indica as músicas
This still holds up. Easily this is my favorite Chrono Cross medley even years later.
Best TH-cam recommendation ever. I'm drowning in tears.
9 years later I am still in love with this compilation! It brings me so much joy
Usually these collaborative mixes are mediocre at best. This is fantastic, very true to the spirit of the original sound, and without the typical mixing flaws. It manages to pull of a big sound with a small ensemble. Just. Stellar.
Feel like yesterday when i was a child and spent a whole day playing Chrono Cross. 20+ years has passed but my love for Chrono cross series still the same. Greatest game and OST ever. Now 2020 this medley makes my eyes wet for nostalgia.
props to the guy on flute
especially navel of the world thats some serious flute playing
@@strawhat9320 thank you both!
@@Seiya174 was that you? what kind of flute was it? i'm a little embarrassed to say it, but i've kind of been inspire to play the flute to maybe one day move someone else the way your flute moved me
@@flappy7373 hey man yeah that was me!
Thanks so much for the kind words.
It has been a long time now but I believe I was playing on a Haynes model at the time with a Trevor James headjoint!
Still can't believe such a high-quality content like this has so little views
+Lohan It's the people who put a lot work into their videos that get no views.
and yet almost every big let's player has a ton more. sad youtube is sad
Nearly 500k views for a channel with 2.3k subs is actually a lot
Gosh this was almost 10 years ago but we sure did a freaking great job on this!!
You guys did more than a freaking great job!! Thank you guys for making such a great memory, really.
This is how we work from home!
If you look up the word "perfect" on the dictionary, it shows a link to this video.
Congratulations, best game cover of all.
This is, for sure, the best medley I have ever heard. Seriously...I really cried. I have the entire OST on my mp4 player and now I'll sure add this song to my playlist.
I still keep going back to the Chrono Cross music at 27. You guys are better than the full orchestras I've played while studying. It's almost identical to the in-game music - not over orchestrated or jazzed up. Very tight and on-key. This is awesome!
I still go back to CC music... at 41... this game and its music are not easily forgotten.
Quando joguei tinha 12 anos hj tenho 28
What an amazing medley. Had me in my feels. This is one of my favorite sound tracks from the 90's era games. Between Chrono Cross, FFVIII, and FFVII:Crisis Core soundtracks... I like them ALL.
Guys and girls! Today it's my BD and watching this was a GREAT gift to me, wonderful job all of you, thank you for this! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Found this 10 years after it was uploaded. Instantly in love - this is amazing!
me and my family played this game together every night for months many years ago - you have brought those times back to me in a very special way. Thank you so much!
I could listen it for hours. Moreover, it's 8 hours non stop there... for many months. Maybe i have a problem.
Sounds like you're in an endless time loop.. you ever make it out yet? :p
lol. stuck between the phases of different dimensions.
This is absolute perfection!
Nostalgia! Hey Rebecca, I hope you remember me! hehe Luv from Brazil.

Hello. ^^
:D S2
It is indeed. The quality is top and the performers exceptional!
so are your compositions ;)
absolutely love your cover of forest interlude and stickerbrush symphony
I still come back and listen to this frequently, I love this rendition from talented fans and musical artists!
This is absolutely incredible. I've been diving down a rabbit-hole of Chrono Cross music, and this is without question the best medley yet!
love this take on the master Mitsuda!!! Always one of the best soundtracks in my heart 😢✨️
Coming back after watching Complex Dream trailer, collaboration between Another Eden x Chrono Cross.
Can't wait, 4 more days for Chrono Cross Remaster announcement at The Game Awards.
Thank you all for making this. My favorite JRPG of all times, it def hits a spot in my soul while listening.
I've been listening to this for a long, long... long time, and I've been through a lot in my life during this time, and many things changed. During worse and best, this medley was always there with me, in public or in private, in airplanes and different continents, in love and anger, also pain and success, from twenties to thirties. You guys were amazing indeed, so thank you so much for so many hours of awesomeness!
A wonderful collaboration, really on point with the OST imho. Thanks for sharing this musical gem with us all!! 👍
Amazing job! I always come back here now and then, to listen. Thank you very much, for this.
Outstanding, this truly deserves more views.
Makes me cry every time... wtf
EVERY TIME!
I can't believe I haven't seen this til now. This was an amazing and beautiful medley from one of my favorite OSTs. Each song was recreated perfectly, bravo to all involved!
You made my eyes filled even though I haven't played CC... only CT! Thank you so much, enlighted time travelers.
Wonderful job you guys. you really gave this soundtrack and this game justice and made Yasunori-san and us fans proud. Bravo!
Song - Life a distant promise. Watches Kid die. Seems legit.
All it's missing is the Dead Sea... and it would truly be pure bliss.
One of the most wonderful played recompenstions of one of my most precious and greatest game i have played in my Life.
Thank you very much....from deep within my heart..
Especially the ending of your video...how you listed in everyone who played his part...it made the whole video have a staff roll on his own and..made my heart feel so sad and happy at the same time.
Please enjoy your own Childhood...to the fullest...im very very very grateful and happy to have had a childhood with Chrono Cross and Trigger...
P:S Everyone played his part wonderful to the point making me cry throughout the video, will suscrip to each of you and thank you very much to each of you as well creating one of my favourite music videos.
Incredible. Honestly, made me cry. It's good to know you're not alone in this giant universe.
Thank you all putting the effort to put this song on youtube :) 2021 and still listening to it :D
I met this song for the first time when I was 17 years old and I was impressed. Even now after 20 years have passed, there is no song that is more impressed than this song. Please express the greatest gratitude and respect for you playing this song!
Same! I decided to play flute after hearing Time Scar when I was 6
Who else is here in anticipation of the release of the remastered game tomorrow?!
Absolutely love this!
I tried to come back to it on the Switch model... Sadly, I just couldn't get back into it
Tears, literally tears. I miss being a teen when I still had my mom alive and many other family members.
Me to
Lizard Dance is a most undervalued! when i first listen i think it is so good, finnally found it's cover.
6 years after and I still keep coming back to this medley. Great tunes in a time of crisis
The best Game of RPG PlayStation One
In my opnion best RPG ever ALL Console
And Final Fantasy IX
While quite good, Xenogears is better, despite the disc 2 issues. My biggest gripe about CC is having to play as Lynx for half the game.
It makes my heart ache how beautiful Chrono Cross is,the music made the adventure so magical and literally out of this world,I would gladly play it again if I could.There were so many characters,so many stories,I connected with more than any Final Fantasy game.I would pay to go to this concert,well done.
A fitting tribute to one of the most beautiful video game songs.
Just had to drop by and give credit to all of you. Absolute incredible job from everyone. The flute and violin especially were standout performances and I hope everyone is super proud of the heart and passion that clearly whet into this. To want to make something from the heart is truly special, and I just hope everyone is happy with where they are. All are incredible talents who deserve all the best!
I put on a random playlist for studying and half way through i stop and think "wait, what is this? this is awesome"
Why can't we get a Chrono Cross Remaster? I ask WHY??? This game is perfect, the story, the world, the music. Everything about this game is perfect and it DESERVES a Remaster. I grew up on Chrono Trigger, and Chrono Cross, and it is one of my favorite JRPGs. It is up there with my love for the Final Fantasy games.
You’re one of the few that consider Chrono Cross as perfect. Most notably, it is a mess of dialogue dumps at the end to make up for a lack of coherent storytelling. As for the battle mechanics, the various characters have no real distinction in battle besides their elements
On the more subjective side, It literally slaughters everyone’s favorite characters from the last game with barely a reason to do so. It’s also been noted that poor midi use made the battle music sound way worse than it did on Radical Dreamers, despite being on better hardware.
Don’t get me wrong. I like the game, and I do hope to replay it sometime. But I would rather see the game entirely reworked instead of seeing Square release another poor attempt at a remaster.
We got a hater here pretending that he likes the game.
Definitely not a hater. It’s one of the few games I’ve replayed, but I save “perfect” for games like Chrono Trigger and not many others (mayyyybe FFX?) I could name more good things about it, like that shocking character swap in the middle, or the speech engine that gives the characters quite a bit of personality (despite all saying the exact same things). And besides, my favorite games (Suikoden and FFV) are very far from perfect.
But I do think it could really benefit from a full remake that fleshes out it’s battle system, remasters the music, and sprinkles more of it’s connections with Chrono Trigger as either optional side content, or as maybe as visions at key parts of the story instead of all at once at the end. The game sometimes forget that good stories “show, don’t tell.”
@@dracoerrarus4834 Honestly, you stole the words right out of my mouth. I love Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy X, any Suikoden game, and any other Final Fantasy game for that matter. I couldn't agree more about what you said about a Chrono Cross Remake. I just REALLY want to jump back into this game again.
I agree. And I don t trust anybody who doesn't like at least a couple of the final fantasy games. Absolute marvels of the jrpg.
I can't believe Kid is the reincarnation of Schalla. What an amazing story.
Kid is a Chrono Trigger all her own, created by Shala to save all time.
I'm listening to this awesome piece for the first time, incredible work on an amazing OST! Much love on you
Cadê os BR para ver essa coisa linda? Realmente uma obra prima, o melhor jogo de RPG que já joguei no meu PS1, se não for um dos melhores da minha vida. 🙌🏽🖤
Concordo mano 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤❤❤❤
@@davidpavanello2621 Apesar de ter jogado meu PS1 fora de época, eu fui muito feliz cara, peguei um ótimo console que me deu muitas e muitas horas de diversão. 🏆🖤
@@UniversoGPX pra amantes desse estilo, uma obra prima dessas nuca fica fora de época :D
Concordo cara, esse jogo é inesquecível!
@@skyteddy sim amigo exatamente.
When you experience nostalgia for a game you never played. THAT is heart.
I played Chrono Trigger, but never Chrono Cross. Never have time to these days...
But its music continues to inspire me to this day. Keep it up, friends.
I remember this when I was 15 years old playin’ ps1.,until now. .now I'm 40 years old Still love this music💕👍
Those were the days
Truly outstanding, Scars of Time is one of the most ambitious tracks in the history of video game music and ya'll pulled it off. Bravo!
I've just heard the fantastic job you did with insaneintherainmusic, Hattrax and Papeghin and... wow! You're really leaving me without words. This medley is great! It's fantastic to see collaborations like this one.
Omg HatTrax that LOW B!!!!! It made such an impact on the feels man I love it!!!! Everyone here did an amazing and fantastic job!!!
Wow the Fields of time rendition is so beautiful, I wanna this on Spotify, mp3, Flac, but I wanna this song to play whenever I want
thank you so much for doing this. Words cannot capture the statement it makes when so many skilled musicians dedicate their time to play this soul-touching music.
Someone in 2024? Hohoho
Ill be back ❤
Me! The algorithm finally found me 😅
No amount of time can pass that would make me love this music any less. Easily one of the greatest and most unsung OSTs of all time.
I've never actually played Chrono Cross but this is such an unbelievable jam!
You're missing out! What about the original, Chrono Trigger? It was originally released on SNES and you can get it on your phone for like $4 or something like that. It's a perfect and very well done port to mobile of the original. I actually prefer Trigger over Cross. They're both absolute masterpieces though! Same musical composer too!
This was absolutely beautiful. Thank you all so much for your work on this
Wow! That was awesome! I can imagine how much work it took for you to make it. And I think it was worth it. I hope you haven't gave up doing this kind of videos. It's been awhile since your last one. Well, this video was one of the best that I've ever seen on youtube. Chrono cross' music is perfection. I wish Yasunori Mitsuda listen to this. Congratulation to everyone that participated!
I'm... just beside myself. I don't know what to say. Bravo 👏
i liked the bass and the flute :D
Mitsuda is an unsung genius.
Miss this game gonna pick it up today, awesome medley
Your melodies and sync between one another is pure beauty. This made me feel good tonight, thanks!
This is a very beautiful medley it has aged well
Seriously, one of the most stunningly beautiful medley arrangements/performances of this gorgeous soundtrack I’ve ever heard. Possibly the best, even.
Almost forgot to listen to this today. That was a close call.
I play This game every day;;;LOVE IT. OVER AND OVER AND ALSO; LEGEND OF DRAGOON....
This video inspired me to get a violin! I started practicing with it last night and my cat tried to swat it out of my hands....guess I need a teacher. :(
I'm curious, do you know how to play violin now ?
i always come back to listen to this! Wonderfully crafted music!
they should make a HD version or totally remake the game!!
Definitely an HD version, you cannot improve or remake greatness
Omar Cortez an HD version coupled with Chrono Trigger to help with Lucca Tie In, and to top it all off,
Omar Cortez and a bonus for those that actually brought hard copies/co
Omar Cortez and a third disc with a Trailer for CHRONO BREAK with ORIGINAL DREAM TEAM!!!!!!
I agree that a remake is necessary. For as good as the game was at invoking feelings and wonder, character development was extremely lacking, the plot was hard to follow, and the conclusion was not at all clear. I already have a few ideas for retcons, some minor, some major, that would fix the more telling problems with the narrative. I also think the original creators would welcome a chance at a remake, since there was some evidence that the endgame was rushed due to money or time constraints.
This is amazing, this music is so beautiful and thank you for showing some love to some of my favorite underappreciated tracks like lizard dance! the transitions are so seamless, it really makes this feel like a cohesive piece while still giving each track just enough spotlight. and your arrangement of life ~ a distant promise made me tear up. Great job!!!
dude crying over here(T^T) don't call me a wuss but wow I felt like I was taken to a world of beauty and majesty make something amazing I proud of every person in this video!!!
Ace Mike what a wuss
So many chills, you guys did a great job! Thank you for your wonderful cover :)
This is one of my most beloved games
This is one hell of perfection. Good job guys!
God what a beautiful soundtrack and a beautiful medley. Amazing job guys.
