Why is there no great western vidya composer like Nobuo Uematsu, Koji Kondo, or Yoko Shimomura?
But there is

Most western video games use ambient music with just some synth playing in the background

Did he do Oblivion or Skyrim's OST?
Because Morrowind's is phenomenal and both Oblivion and Skyrims seem mediocre in comparison

So far the only notable person posted here is Jeremy Soule.
The rest of the shit here is just ambient generic noise that doesn't stand on it's own without the videogame

Matt "wasted potential" Uelmen.

No, the italian guy is another musician. I think Uelmen didn't composed any OST besides Diablo and some WoW
David Wise, Alexander Brandon, Dan Gardopee, Michiel van den bos.

He did the soundtracks of all three games mentioned in your post. I'm partial to Morrowind's as well if forced to choose, but I thought each one was excellent.

Youka-Laylee better have a killer ost
Honestly, western games have pretty mediocre soundtracks compared to eastern games.

The game agrees with me since they used it in the credits, so don't even think of embarrassing yourself with denial.

James Hannigan is bretty gud, did the theme from Red Alert 3 and Most of the tracks I think from Evil Genius. Also Dead Space 3 stuff
