Hello once again, NG! This is the eleventh of 26 submissions (or so) that I'll upload this year for a project entitled Project 26: Submission a Week. This project is in collaboration with NG user Chocosoda (check him out!) Each other week in 2011, I'll upload a musical piece for a total of 26.

It's March, and that means it's FFVIII month. What better way to celebrate the release of Suckerpunch (which I went out to see tonight -- and you totally should, too!) than with a nice boss theme to round out your weekend?

This is "Force Your Way," the boss theme from FFVIII (duh), with a few instrument changes, part modifications and a new drum track. In other words, this is a by-the-books Joshy676 job. xD

And, this week, Chocosoda collaborated with me on this one. It's good to have him back.
