#Video Game Soundtrack Composers

[radiation]

I always forget how Club Penguin used to be the biggest thing in my entire life. That shit was major. I will always have a heartache for it, but like many things I’m nostalgic for it’s less that I want to go back to the past and more that I feel a need to somehow closely recreate the specific feeling it gives me in art I make in the future

Yuka Kitamura appreciation post

Listen, nothing is wrong with Sakuraba's work in the series. Bro is a very good composer.

BUT GOD DAMN DOES YUKA COOK EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!!!!

Ruin Sentinels? Executioner's Chariot? Sir Alonne? BURNT IVORY KING? ALDIA? ABYSS WATCHERS? DS3 IN GENERAL? QUEEN SHIT.

She really hopped on the OST and cooked that shit like my grandfather at the grill! She annihilated every single track she made and the fact that people pretend O&S (which is still very good) is the pinnacle of the Dark Souls OST when SLAVE KNIGHT GAEL IS RIGHT THERE??????

I love Yuka so much. I would die for her.

Here's some of the music I made for PROMISE MASCOT AGENCY by lovely Kaizen Game Works ⛩️

This track is Kaso-Machi Nights. Some swimmy, slighty-sleazy jazz chill

The whole OST is full of dreamy Showa-era-influenced jazz fusion, traditional Japanese instruments and tons more 💖

Dear listener, it’s become a bit of a tradition on my blog that when another Halloween rolls around, I’ll post yet another dark ambient tune from one of my musical heroes, Akira Yamaoka. Second only to Yoko Shimomura in my mind for elite Japanese soundtrack composers, Akira is a very special kind of music producer, having quite literally set the bar for sound engineering in modern horror games through his work in the Silent Hill franchise. I’ve played a lot of games through the years including many horror titles, and I have yet to come across another series with such a domineering and immersive soundtrack that places you right into feelings of grief, sadness and the nagging feeling that a violent haunting is afoot. If you care to explore his discography further, you can click here for his website. That said, please do smash play on Null Moon from the Silent Hill 2 soundtrack, and Happy Halloween 23!

Another Halloween, another dark tune from AY. Check out his tunes and play his games every spooky season, and every day for that matter, because as we all recognize his tunes are just as important as a balanced breakfast. Image source: https://www.songkick.com/artists/8526574-akira-yamaoka

I Created Part of a Fake Game OST

More specifically, I submitted an EP for the OST Composing Jam! It consists of seven tracks for the fake Ghibli-inspired JRPG "Nagisa: Princess of the Sea". Would really appreciate if ya'll checked it out and maybe give it a rating on itch.io!

This Women's History Month I'd like to shout out two of Japan's, nay, THE WORLD'S best composers of all time.

Yoko Shimomura and Michiru Yamane make music that can give the classical composers that inspired them a run for their money.

Shimomura gave us the soundtracks for Super Mario RPG, Kingdom Hearts and its sequels, the Mario & Luigi RPGs, and many others.

Yamane on the other hand IS Castlevania music, from Bloodlines to Order of Ecclesia, with Symphony of the Night being a standout, not to mention she also composed many tracks for Rocket Knight Adventures and Goemon 2.

You want to listen to their work, check out the games I've mentioned, or at least listen to the soundtracks of Super Mario RPG, Castlevania Bloodlines and Symphony of the Night, and Kingdom Hearts in particular.

Have you played the Amadeus demo? It's live, and completely free to play in-browser!

I have released the soundtrack as an album on BandCamp here. As a preview, here is one of my favorite tracks: "Spellbound Mischief," a piece that plays during the longest segment of gameplay in the demo. It features a marimba performance by Jay Lee.

There are a total of 8 tracks I wrote for the demo. This one was particularly inspired by Professor Layton... can you hear the inspiration?

If you'd like to stay up-to-date on Amadeus now that the demo is out, follow this blog, and bookmark this link: https://linktr.ee/amadeusgame

Hello, I'm new to this site! Hoping to share new releases and WIPs of my compositions for people to enjoy. I mostly write video gamey stuff, but I like experimenting with other things.

Here's a few recent WIPs-- a biker themed track and a Metal Gear Rising inspired track.
