Editing Ys I: Ancient Ys Vanished (section)

==Music==
Composed by [[Yuzo Koshiro]], along with [[Mieko Ishikawa]], the soundtrack is notable for its rich melodies in an age when [[video game music]] was beginning to progress from monotonous bleeps.

Several soundtrack albums dedicated to the music of Ys I have been released by Falcom. These include:
*'''''Music from Ys''''' (1987): Contains the soundtrack to the original PC-8801 edition, along with a number of unused tracks and the replacement tracks used in the MSX edition, many of which were later incorporated into the ''Ys Eternal'' soundtrack.
