Who is he?

Hideki Naganuma, composer of Jet Set Radio and Sonic Rush

Lind Erebros. The only one I bothered to look up after playing a game. Poor slav dude deserves more work in the industry.

Jeremy Soule really phoned it in on skyrim, but his Harry Potter is more magical than John Williams'

Honestly what I was thinking of when I wrote that.
I'm trying to think of soundtracks that stay with you the way a good album does.

In my opinion the student has surpassed the teacher,Hosoe is still one of my favourites.

Chikayo Fukuda

I'll second this but I almost feel like it's cheating since what comes to mind most strongly is not his videogame soundtracks but the excellent work he did elsewhere. (He even frequently brings old non videogame tracks into dragonquest, a cheap move maybe.)

based, LISA has a great soundtrack

He's a weird dude because he always makes fun of weaboos but he is a westaboo himself.

>He even frequently brings old non videogame tracks into dragonquest, a cheap move maybe.)
I don't doubt that this is true, but do you know any tracks he did this with off the top of your head? I've never actually heard any of his non-DQ music.

wtf is that pic from finlan?

The cyborg 009 symphonic tracks are the most obvious. See if you can recognize it.

Only pic i could find of him

Western: Tim Follin, David Wise, David Bergeaud, Frank Klepacki and Jake Kaufman

There's many more I like, but those are the top 5 for each.

Mike Morasky.
TF2's soundtrack is timeless.

Whoever made crypt of the necrodancer

Shame he's a total faggot.

my nigger

David Wise and Virt are my two favorite western boys.

These

Didn't Wise only compose the original DK soundtracks? If that's the case he's overrated as fuck.

You know he has worked on more stuff than DK, right?

Danny B is great he also made the soundtracks for Super Meat Boy and the original Binding of Isaac

Based user. This in the only correct answer.

Can't choose one, too hard.

I don't know who this is but he knows what's up

Oh shit, that's part of the ending/credits for DQ7, right? Interesting, I'm gonna have to take a look at more of his stuff.

I was disappointed when I found out how lazily he composed a lot of songs on the first 4 games.

A lot of it was already made music loops from a sample pack i.e he didn't make it.

Nobuo Uematsu

I really liked Jeper Kyds work, is he still making music?
Also David Bergeaud, he made the OST for the PS2 R&C games, sadly he also stopped

His work in Goldeneye and Perfect Dark is very stylistically different from his platformer stuff.

I can't decide between Koji Kondo and David Wise.

Motoi Sakuraba

Uematsu during the 5th gen was the gold standard of videogame composers
Shinomura is quite good but not great
Sakuraba i only listened to his very old stuff and he was pretty great
Same thing with Mitsuda

I don't know many of the names for japanese devs but radiation, danny b, and grany kirkhope are some of the best in the west
