This is my cover for Soundole's yearly Chill Out VGM contest! As a result, it's of course more of a chill cover than most of the ones I do. I'm really happy with the way this one turned out, as I think it's pretty different from some of my covers in a lot of ways, but still sounds like me in others.

This is a song I've had on my list to do for a while, and I even once suggested it as a song for 8-Bit Battleground, but it didn't win of course. Illusion of Gaia (also called Illusion of Time in Europe) was a game I played a bit as a kid, but never made it very far. I replayed it a couple years ago, and still never beat it, but it's a pretty cool action RPG not unlike the old school Zelda games. This song was one of the ones that always stood out to me just because it's a really peaceful town theme. It has a fairly typical "Canon in D" kind of chord progression, but the melody is super memorable and the final section with the maj7th chords is the section that really takes it over the top for me. I knew I wanted to include a couple of those token Triple B slide guitar sections, and I'm glad I did because it works great with this song.
