Ys III J.D.K. Special

About

There we find all the energy that made the reputation of the Ys series: rock guitars, heroic melodies and iconic compositions signedMieko Ishikawa. Topics that have become unavoidable such as "Valestein Castle", "The Boy的s Got Wings" or "Be Careful" benefit from a particularly powerful interpretation, typical of the Falcom sound of the early 1990s.

This edition also contains several unreleased tracks created especially for the X68000 version as well as versions arranged by the J.D.K. BAND, offering an even richer musical experience for fans of the license and collectors of Japanese CD game music.

An indispensable for anyone passionate aboutNihon Falcom, Sharp X68000 or Japanese retro video game music.
