From Mario to Zelda, to Final Fantasy and Undertale, there’s no doubt that music plays a huge role in the video games that we all know and love. But what about the music from lesser known video games? What about the jamming tunes and fire tracks that may have gone under the radar of most gamers? Join us, Fair Gamers, as we dig through the crates and uncover some amazing games and music you might have missed… This is Hidden Tracks!
Hidden Tracks Vol. 1: Tobal No. 1
Selected Tracks: Poltano, Shinto Shrine, Disused Mine
Released for the Playstation in 1996, Tobal No. 1 is a 3D fighting game developed by DreamFactory and published by Squaresoft (now Square Enix). While the game featured deep fighting/grappling mechanics, a unique Quest Mode, and a demo of the at-the-time unreleased Final Fantasy VII, Tobal No. 1 had a hard time competing with other fighting games in America, like Street Fighter or Tekken. But years later, Tobal No. 1 would gain a cult following with fans, with help from the game’s colorful roster - the characters of Tobal No. 1 were designed by Akira Toriyama, the father of Dragon Ball Z, and you can definitely see his style shine through in Tobal No. 1!
For the game’s soundtrack, Squaresoft enlisted a super-team of eight of their composers who had all worked on other Squaresoft titles, including Final Fantasy. The composers included - just to name a few - Yasunori Mitsuda, who served as the producer; Masashi Hamauzu, who would later become Square Enix’s head composer from 2004 to 2010; and Yoko Shimomura, who would later work on the music for Kingdom Hearts.
Tobal No. 1’s music team took a different direction compared to other fighting games of the era; while most fighting games in the mid-90s drew inspiration from techno and hard rock, Tobal No. 1’s music draws influence from a ton of eclectic styles. When you listen to the soundtrack, you can hear influences from drum-and-bass, jazz, ambient, hip hop beats, and even world music from Japanese and Latino styles! Tobal No. 1’s soundtrack has something for everyone, whether you want to beat your opponent in the ring, or just listen to some chill tunes! Tobal No. 1 is well worth checking out, both the game and the Hidden Tracks!
