I don’t really post my own threads much but id figured I may as contribute a little . Without giving away too much of myself on here…. I’m a musician. Produced some pretty succeful records over the years but I E always seen music in video games as something I’d like to add to resume of cool things that I do. May even open my own small games company one day, but who knows what the future holds .
There’s one thing about 90s Japanese games soundtracks that always gets me. Maybe it’s the chords and melodies. Would love to find out what keyboards they are using on some of this stuff… of if they were composing straight off the sound chip. This stuff always ways sound cool to me though. They arrange and compose music in games in a way that had always inspired me.
If you guys are bored just check out some of Capcoms CPS2 compositions. He synths and patch choices are excellent. And they just threw this stuff in a game. I recently been sampling and remixing in a lot of this stuff, mostly for fun but also for my own work reasons. I think Japanese melodic structure is underrated. What I’m thinking is how to translate that into the music I make for eastern audiences but that’s a me thing. ThnbI it’s wanted to make a thread bugging up all the game composers. We alway here about Greg guys who produce the games. The guys who made the graphics look dope…. But let’s show some live to the sound guys in the game industry.audio is a very important part of the overall experience with a game, after all. I know I probably check for sound design more than most in a game as an Audio professional but hey…. We all love a good soundtrack and appreciate good spacial mixing for those surround sound set ups! But that’s only part of it. You gotta have catchy tunes in Your game
Everybody over 35…. Skip to 5:00 to hear something that will really throw you back to the 90s!
