Sound familiar? It is if I recall the Shop Theme from Final Fantasy 1.
But then my friend showed me this album out of nowhere;

Have a listen and see what you think.
Do we know of any developers or old-time composers that stated on record what their inspirations were?
Pretty common OP.

Koji Kondo was an ELP fan
OP here, forgot about Elec Man's theme

If you were musician, you would know that it can happen that two people write a very similar melody, or even a similar song altogether, without having ever heard the other one.
Especially if they have the same influences.

Emerson, Lake and Palmer were a Prog group that used a lot of keyboard. Keith Emerson just died yesterday, I think... what a coinkeydink
A lot of their singles showed a pretty strong folk influence

Polite sage because I'm talking about non-videogame-music on /vr/, but I felt like answering anon's question. I dunno what the connection between ELP and Kondo are, though.
Jesus Christ could you faggots at least post the vidya music you're trying to compare these songs to?
