The PlayStation era was a very interesting time for the company that was once known as Square. During that period, they were willing to experiment much more than they do today as Square Enix. This lead to titles that weren't RPGs such as Tobal No.1, Bushido Blade 1 and 2 as well as RPGs that weren't only FINAL FANTASY like Xenogears and today's topic for VG Soundtrack of the Day, Threads of Fate, also known as Dewprism in Japan. Junya Nakano didn't get the same recognition as Nobuo Uematsu (FINAL FANTASY) or Yasunroi Matsuda (Chrono Cross, Xenogears) early on but his work was remarkable, nonetheless. He is perfectly capable of carrying a soundtrack all by himself and Threads of Fate is proof of that. A good number of mellow tracks are present throughout this score, my favorite being Rasdan.
