Oh, Faxanadu. I wish Falcom would give this game more love, as it was truly an amazing game with some awesome music. I certainly have a lot of memories about how difficult it was, the key guy who said “Nello!,” and the Lakitu-looking things that dropped bread when you killed them. I even remember having one of those “Wouldn’t it be cool if they made [classic game title here] 64?” discussions with some friends when the Nintendo 64 was around, and always saying Actraiser and Faxanadu.
Anyway, this guy has recorded himself on guitar three times over performing the password theme from the game. Awesome track, great arrangement, and trippy video! Really beautiful, which I never would have expected given that this song plays when you die.
Do you think the music from Faxanadu deserves more attention from Falcom? What do you think of this performance?
