Thank you very much! I have been wanting to get back to making them eventually. Been feeling a bit drained of energy in recent times but I do still analyze stuff in my free time just need to actually make the video haha. I appreciate that people have found them interesting c:

I forgot to share this with tumblr, I drew Seth in the Kaiser asterisk outfit from Bravely Second for fun!

In Revo's music it's mostly heard in isolation as a type of hook with some exceptions like Mother. It's cool to see modern composers like Revo or Michiru Yamane still keep this old baroque tradition alive today in contemporary music scenarios!

Thank you! I'm glad it was easy to parse. I initially started learning music theory because I wanted to understand why I liked certain elements of composers I like so much while gaining the tools along the way to play music in such styles or just appreciate it more. I then figured there are a lot of artists out there that don't get these type of analysis so it'd be fun to share my knowledge with everyone else, it's fun to learn about the stuff we like, it's kinda like lore but for music haha. I'm always fascinated with Revo's music storytelling, this is kind of my way of showing my appreciation for it (plus it may help others along the way!)

Bonus: While not exactly 1 to 1 to this progression I'm sure many Sound Horizon fans recognise a similar movement at the beginning of The Glory Kingdom, SH's anthem song :) Another reason it feels so important to his music in my opinion.

I'll go more into detail later when I have the time! Planning to drop lil' tidbits of what I learn when transcribing music, just need to remind myself to share it more.

Updates from Tomoya Asano on Bravely news this year! Previously it was stated during the Bravely Default II anniversary earlier this year that we'd be seeing news this year but it seems that will no longer be the case. Whatever is behind the scenes I hope the team is well and Square Enix are giving them the time they need!
