Let's take a break from the gameplay and demos, and veer off in a different direction to something everyone can appreciate: music. 1up'S Jeremy Parish seems to have nabbed a chance to sample the Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] original soundtrack, and has provided his impressions here! You can read an excerpt below:

I'm struck, in listening to the game's soundtrack, by how much various tracks remind me of music from Final Fantasy games, despite the fact that they're not direct references to any particular Square game (and, based on the track listing, look to have more to do with Disney properties -- presumably Pinocchio). "The Fun Fair" has a sound reminiscent of Hitoshi Sakimoto's work for Final Fantasy XII and Tactics, while "Broken Reality" has a staccato xylophone feel that puts me in mind of Final Fantasy IX's "Ice Caverns."

Come and chat with us about the music and impressions here in our forums!
