Phantasy Star II Remix Roadmap

To check a different PS track list, use the home menu above, hover the “Phantasy Star Remix Roadmap” title.

The rhythmic beast, the king of 80’s electro, Phantasy Star II has just the right dystopian vibe with its energy and its mood, the music is pretty close to perfect.

Judging how bad PS II is with grinding, a solid OST is an asset. I’ve had insane fun remixing these tunes and I have so many more I want to do. 

PS II has only two battle themes but they are among the best in any RPG I have ever played and I doubt I’ll be done remixing those two anytime soon.

Track Title: Phantasy

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

PS2 theme – Probably not. This has already been overdone. I’d rather do something else.

What I think now:

I still don’t feel overly pressed to do this one but hey, you never know. It’s pretty iconic.

Track Title: A Prologue

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Cutscene music. Maybe. No idea comes to mind.

What I think now:

Part of: Before the End

Track Title: Pressure

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Central tower theme – Fun tune but never inspired me to remix.

What I think now:

This could be part of a nice medley of various town themes.

Track Title: My Home

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Rolf’s home. I like it but I don’t have any real ideas.

What I think now:

This could be part of a nice medley of various town themes.

Track Title: Pleasure

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Mota town – Yes, absolutely, priority. Unfortunately, I have no idea how yet.

What I think now:

I love this track so hard. This WILL be the reason to make  a nice medley of various town themes.

Track Title: Step Up

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Item shop/Menu – That would be fun to remix but as a loop, not as a full remix, too simple.

What I think now:

Technically not a town theme but it could still fit in a town medley, or just mixed with one or two adequate songs.

Track Title: Bracky News

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Weapon/armor shop. No. Boring.

What I think now:

See, this is where “I matured” comes into play.  This could be a very cute wink/transition in a larger medley.

Track Title: Restoration

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Mota overworld – I’d love to. Again, often remixed by other but I can see it happening.

What I think now:

This is another iconic PS II song that has been heavily remixed. Still, I should do it someday, because reasons.

Track Title: Rise or Fall

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Battle theme – Already done!

What I think now:

I don’t think I’ll ever tire of remixing this.

Part of : Rise and Triumph 

Part of : Deadly Mota

Part of my battle medley (incomplete)

Track Title: Movement

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Battle end. Maybe. Cute song, would make a nice loop but not a full remix.

What I think now:

Part of: Deadly Mota

Track Title: Advanced

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Dungeon theme pre-Climatrol. Yes, soon. I have ideas.

What I think now:

Part of:   Deadly Mota

I love this theme enough to try and redo it again in a smaller mix.

Track Title: Secret Ways

Status: Remix in progress

What I said in 2010:

Dezo simple dungeon – Maybe. Not inspired. A bit too simplistic…

What I think now:

Simplistic… hahaha… oh, 2010 Aero, if only you knew.  

I tried remixing this and I have failed, miserably. This is an off-beat, and I mean REALLY off-beat jazz and it’s driving me nuts.  Still, I will persevere.

Track Title: Mystery

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Mota’s dams. Yes, soon, I have ideas.

What I think now:

Part of:   Deadly Mota

Track Title: Over

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Game over – No, completely uninspiring.

What I think now:

Again, with age, opinions soften. I might use this in something larger, later. Maybe with “Never Dream”

Track Title: Silent Zone

Status: Remix in progress

What I said in 2010:

Dezo overworld – Yes, absolutely. I have ideas. Likely a “next project” candidate.

What I think now:

This has been a “next project” for…  12 years now. I really want to complete it, it’s not even hard to do. I’ve just been busy with other remixes.

Track Title: Excite Town

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Dezo town. That would be fun. I already have ideas. Not a priority.

What I think now:

This could be part of a nice medley of various town themes.

Track Title: Violation

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Esper Dungeon – I have never felt the need but this would make a really good choir remix.

What I think now:

Well. For something I didn’t feel the need to to, I did it twice!

Part of: Before the End

Part of: Dreaming in Cryosleep

Track Title: Power

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Epic ambience theme – Not much to remix there. I wouldn’t consider it a candidate.

What I think now:

Boy, was I a party-pooper in 2010.

Part of: Before the End

Track Title: Under

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Last dungeon. Yes but not now, and I have no ideas.

What I think now:

Oh my God this was turned into an absurdly good remix.

Part of: Access Denied

Track Title: Death Place

Status: Remix done!

What I said in 2010:

Boss. Already done!

What I think now:

How many more times will I remix this? We may not have big enough numbers.

Part of: Death Trance

Part of: Deadly Mota

Part of my battle medley (incomplete)

Track Title: Exclaim

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

Not particularly. No idea comes to mind.

What I think now:

And strangely enough, this is still accurate.

Track Title: Never Dream

Status: No remix started

What I said in 2010:

End credits. Yes, I have ideas, but not now. Much later.

What I think now:

The year is 2023.  “Much later” is now “Soon”.
