Nobuo Uematsu


YugureIko

Recommended Posts

This is one of my favorite composers! i know he composes songs for games but that almost increases his genius in my eyes, at least! some may not even be familiar with his work! He has composed hundreds if not thousands of pieces of music in his life-time as thus far for the video game series final fantasy. he has also composed pieces for the vid. game series Chrono Trigger, and the entrance theme to the Anime Ah! My Goddess.

and every tune seems to just stick to me! i'll find myself humming a tune of his almost anywhere at anytime! i get them stuck in my head but not in a bad way: in the best way possible!

does anyone like his compositions?

i know they don't really work outside very often but they are still extremely pleasing to the ear (especially my personal favorite: Suteki Da Ne!) another one of my favorites is Liberi Fatali!... I've never played ff7 so i haven't heard one winged angel... but Nobuo said he was sorta trying to combine Strovinski with Jimmie Hendricks ((spelling? on both names! lol!))

Welcome to the forums, Lord Sorasen!

I advise you to listen to J.S Bach's ''Toccata And Fugue In D minor'. Some of the parts in ''Dancing Mad'' are lifted from that piece! :excl:

i think you and I will be getting along quite well, Sorasen-sama! ^_^

but i'm sure Nobuo might've used other pieces for inspiration, but I'm sure he wasn't really trying to pleugerise! (spelling?) but i could never turn against this guy's addictive works! All his songs keep the final fantasy scores quite well rounded. I really like the fact that he doesn't stick to one type of music with a closed mind. He's a genius, though inspired by others!

I love Uematsu-sama!

Amen! lol!

I loved that one! (the metal one which i think is called "Other World"!) tee hee! oh and i think i've heard a small clip of one winged angel and it sounds amazing (as usual!) Almost everyone of his works has given me goosebumps as thus far... another good one is "To Zanarkand".......... and Seymour's theme! that one was cool!

I'm gonna calm down, now! lol!

Think again! He lifted entire parts from the Toccata And Fugue In D Minor! When i say he lifted entire parts, that means he copied! Copied! Arrgh! :angry: I could have mentioned more, but i didn't want to dispell your undying love for this artist. I once was like you...

Are you serious?! Naturally, my worshipism of Noubu causes my to close my ears to the statement, but I'll hear the song and see for myself.

Ahem, it's a WORK.

You could say that.

But other people could say that those parts are what keeps the whole thing together. It's very subjective....

PS: How can you call the toccata ''not cool''? That's ridicolous! :D

The toccata is awesome, but, I wasn't really talking about the entire Dancing Mad, just that one part at the end, the last, I believe 4 minutes of it.

And I suppose it strings it together, but, "Dancing Mad" is actually multiple songs in FFVI. Its just, to string 'em together for the MP3 version, they had to added some bridges, and, ya. Thats my theory anyway, the bridge thing.

ok, calm down! i didn't post this to start an argument! though i'm not obsessed nor in love with him... lots of songs give me goosebumps it's just his do more so than most others.

but either way, all music is to die for so just please stop freaking out over this!

Apparently that piece isn't even written by J.S. Bach ^_^

And everyone 'borrows' from it anyway, lol.

Yeah. One time I heard on CBC an A minor version of it on solo violin that was apparently the 'true' version, written by whomever else. Heh.
