How old were you when you realized Nobuo Uematsu makes good/catchy jingles but ultimately bad songs?
When The Last Story was released.
I still think his FF music is GOAT
About 16. When I heard the OST for FFIX and X. The man really is the John Williams of game music. He writes a few really good main themes, then the rest is forgettable elevator music.

Best thing he did in his career was get the singer of Deep Purple to sing for Blue Dragon
When I was 14
Name a composer with more talent and skill than Grant Kirkhope
You can't
>>319728781
>Grant Kirkhope
Literally who?
>>319728781
David Wise
That was easy
>>319726634
the same age as you: 0 because it's not true
>fucking children on /v/ trying so fucking hard to be smug that they're trying to act like they don't like Uematsu
Fuck you kids. Go play with some fucking Legos so you can live out your autistic fantasies.
Fuck that
When did you realize Torine was a fucking hack and never good?
You would think that the guy who makes Music for IdolMaster and Taiko Drum master would be based
But then he makes this shit

Only one? Joe Hisaishi.

You can like a composer, but also admit he has faults. Uematsu is actually one of the best synth composers out there. But his orchestral arrangements are very lackluster. And he peaked with FFVI and VIII. All his works since have been kinda phoned in.

Arnold Schönberg
I really like Motoi Sakuraba. His albums outside of his vidya stuff are really good.
>>319729314
I have a 6 year university education in music and the mere notion that Uematsu has faults when next to his contemporaries and that he peaked with a leftover OST like VII is so ludicrous I cannot take you seriously.

Also Grant Kirkhope sucks.
Koichi Sugiyama is the magnum opus of video game music.
Prove me wrong.

>Joe Hisaishi
>Literally Who?
Literally one of the greatest living composers. Not even being a weeb cuz hes a Jap. Joe truly is amazing.
Everything he writes is drowning in warmth and nostalgia.

I don't like his music in vidya, but I guess he was the inspiration for Uematsu and many others

Yasunori Mitsuda > Nobuo Uematsu
>>319731118
Can't really disagree. He's my favorite for video game music.
>>319731125
And Joe Hisaishi is my favorite. Not just contemporary classical, but all music as a whole.
>>319731125
>you now realize that Uematsu wrote Singing Mountain for Chrono Trigger
>its a direct copy of 'Carrying You' by Joe Hisaishi
Oh Uematsu...did you seriously think we wouldn't notice?

he said VIII as in 8 not VII as in 7. That 6 year education in music and you can't notice a simple extra line? you must be terrible at sight reading.
