I'm not really embarassed about it, but it's hard to explain to people sometimes...
Koji Kondo
Nobuo Uematsu
Yasunori Mitsuda
Hiroki Kikuta
Chris Huelsbeck
just to name a few.
Video games, correct? I think Uematsu did music for some Final Fantasy games? I think that stuff goes really well with the games, but I don't ever listen to it outside of playing them.
Bingo.
Koji Kondo is the man responsible for pretty much all of the Nintendo greats (Super Mario Bros., Metroid, Zelda, Donkey Kong Country), Uematsu is mostly known for Final Fantasy, Mitsuda is known for Chrono Trigger and a few others like Xenogears, Kikuta did the Seiken Densetsu (SD2 is Secret of Mana in the USA) series, and Huelsbeck is responsible for Turrican.
No joke, I keep this shit on my MP3 player when I'm skating. It's hard to believe when it comes on in between Wu-Tang Clan and Nas.
