Spanning the many decades of Video Game Music. The Messenger will share music from the 8 Bit Era to today of bite sized episodes with amazing Video Game Music. In this episode, he features his honorable mentions for the Masters of VGM.

Now we shall talk about one of the more famous and familiar composers among the VGM community and perhaps outside: Yoko Shimomura.

She is best known for her compositions of the Kingdom Hearts series, but that required working on many titles beforehand. This week’s episode, we’ll go through her career, listening to several tracks from long list of her works, starting with Street Fighter II, going through several games in the JRPG genre, and then working on another fighting franchise. As usual, each of her original tracks will have a cover or remix paying tribute.

Now, grab a nice, tall glass of your favorite drink and enjoy these tracks in Part Three of “The Masters of VGM”.

Another four composers which are extremely synonymous with the art form. For this episode, I’ll be showcasing the music from Yuzo Koshiro, Yoko Shimomura, Noriyuki Iwadare and Shoji Meguro.

Episode 22: Masters of VGM

Welcome to Part Two of “The Masters of VGM”.

This week’s episode will be about a composer who’s likely to be more famous for his work on another medium besides video games: Hiroyuki Sawano. If you’ve been watching lots of anime, you probably have several shows on your list that you have watched, are watching, or have yet to watch: Seraph of the End, Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096, Attack on Titan, Seven Deadly Sins, etc. Most likely, you may have found the opening and/or ending songs to be catchy yet artistic.

It’s the same case with any video game for which he’s composed the soundtrack. Dramatic, artistic, and yet catchy, his compositions are sure to help make the game memorable for certain cut scenes or boss fights. For some, it may surprise them that, while Hiroyuki Sawano has a long list of credit within anime, he definitely has the chops to create a banger of a soundtrack for a video game.

Now, let’s sit back and bask in the aural glory that is Hiroyuki Sawano.
