Is that a beanie propeller hat?

>>12799780Good at counterpointGood attention to detailGreat melodic intuitionGood instrumentationGood taste and skill at ripping off othersCompetent in a wide range of styles and genres, likes to experiment. Can produce a large volume of work on deadline.Good guy to work with. Hard to find people with ALL those traits.
>It's our last game we can shitp, if we fail the company is overthis was never truethe real story is that the guy would have gone back to college for another year if the game failed, Squaresoft was not in any danger of going under

>>12799780Ngl, as a vgm autist I used to think he was a bit overrated compared to some of my other favorite composers, but the more I listen to his soundtracks the more I realize he was/is actually great.
>>12800424his understanding of harmony is top notch.
Shame he's been relegated to doing shit like thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_PmEkLHb3s
>>12799780wax on wax off
>>12800480Probrem?
>>12799780can you atleast link the song for musiclets who don't play bad games such as final fantasy

>>12800969this is more like the beginning to some 90s trance edm where the vocals never drop
>>12800969Not even on the same level. When I read the word "arpeggio", I was expecting something more like this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_gObHt1uZA
>>12801437the joke is that FFI prelude is just a basic arpegio on 4 chords done as a 10 minutes job.
>>12801476>a 10 minutes jobYet Folin goes hard on a fucking Pictionary game.
>>12801480Follin is great but I think his NES ost suffer from the I'm a virtuoso look how much can I do that younger artists always had.Meanwhile uematsu is more mature in his NES games.A diference of age, not tht follin is bad.I consider uematsu during the NES era a more mature composer than follin.
>>12801528Seems to be an attitude a lot of Euro composers had, especially on C64. Compare any European C64 game's music to an American C64 one and the differences are apparent. Euros generally liked to flex their programming skills.
>>12801529I think is also an age thing.Younger artists need to flex their skills.It's part of a normal development.Meanwhile artists when they're middle age, they're less into virtuosity and more into showcasing technique by doing something that seems very easy and simple.
>>12799904Just wish he'd devised a better sound font for his PS1 scores.
>>12801480Folin seems to throw everything at the wall at one time to see what sticks, all under the auspices of complexity. It doesn't help that his songs rarely match the atmosphere or feeling of the game he is working on. I like a couple of his songs from Plok and he does have talent, but this Anon gets it.>>12801528
>>12802521None of Tim's soundtracks fit the games he wrote them for except for Ecco Defender of the Future.
>>12802534Don't forget the Starsky & Hutch PS2 game.
>>12802540Too late, I already forgot it. Hey when's dinner?
>>12802521>Folin seems to throw everything at the wall at one time to see what sticks, all under the auspices of complexity.Sounds like Aphex Twin.
>Rip off the entire 18th century in music.>Uncultured video game fans shit, piss and cum in their pants from admiration.
