These Persona 4: Dancing All Night remixes are hot!

But I still prefer the originals I’m sure most Atlus fans would agree one of thePersonaseries’ greatest strengths is its music. The studio’s in-house composer Shogi Meguro and his crew do brilliant work, which makes the idea of an entire game dedicated to their anthems so attractive. Within moments of hearing aPersonasong I’m transported to a specific time and place, as the beats and melodies are so closely entwined with my memories of stories and characters that I’ve grown to love....
