Fan remixing.
I generally don't go looking for remixes of game music people have done, but sometimes these things just kind of jump out at you.
Over at the Allakhazam FFXI forums, someone has posted that they've created their own remix of the Ronfaure theme! It's got sort of a rock theme to it. (And then someone else linked to this guy's site, where there are more awesome FFXI track remixes, as well as some other neat stuff!)
There's a different remix of Ronfaure by someone else (no idea who) featuring vocals! It's very pretty!
But, as awesome and pretty as these two are, I still think I prefer the original. I absolutely adore the Ronfaure theme, but this may be because I originate from San d'Oria (all three times) and have spent an inordinate amount of time in Ronfaure.
... What's that?
You've never heard the original Ronfaure theme and so can't compare?
Maybe we should fix that. (Ronfaure's one of the few tracks from FFXI composed by Nobuo Uematsu, so of course it is awesome.)
*(Ronfaure is the area immediately outside the town of San d'Oria. It is one of the "newbie zones," where you start leveling. It is pretty and full of trees. This appears to be the only screenshot of the zone I have on my computer at the moment. And it's one of the ones I captured using the built-in camera, so it's compressed really small from full screen. .... But, so, that's late evening in Ronfaure. The character's not one of mine.)
(Found more. Ronfaure twenty years ago [my character, Ayarei] when the war was still on [not mine], Ronfaure during the New Year's event - so random NPC creatures, and Hisime fighting a goblin in a tree near the lake.)
