Chrono Trigger Arranged Version: The Brink of Time |
The Chrono Trigger Original Sound Version is a soundtrack of the music from Chrono Trigger produced by Yasunori Mitsuda and Mitsunobu Nakamura. The soundtrack spans three discs and 64 tracks, covering a duration of 2 hours and 30 minutes. It was published by Polystar on May 20, 1996, and re-published on October 1, 2004.
Yasunori Mitsuda was the composer of most of the original soundtrack, with contributions by Nobuo Uematsu. Uematsu composed "Silent Light," "Mystery of the Past," "People Who Threw Away the Will to Live," "Bike Chase," "Underground Sewer," "Primitive Mountain," "Burn! Bobonga!," "Tyran Castle," and "Sealed Door,".Uematsu also arranged "Boss Battle 1," composed by Noriko Matsueda.
Several versions of the album exist, all of which combine the Chrono Trigger logo and the Japanese text alongside it. The FXCD-016 version features several fx insignias, lacks the text under "Chrono Trigger Original Sound Version" as seen in the cover art screen shot, and lacks the TM letters next to the Chrono Trigger logo.
The eleventh track on the second disc, "Battle 2," and the first track on the third disc, "Singing Mountain", never actually appeared in-game. However, these tracks were restored in the recent re-release of Chrono Trigger on the Nintendo DS.
