Look this up so I don't have to

Monday, October 27, 2003 » gaming music update

I'm currently re-ID3ing the set of five Orchestral Game Concert CDs, and I would appreciate if anyone could identify the composers for the following games:

  • Albert Odyssey II
  • Bounty Sword
  • Hercules's Glory IV
  • Iihatoovo Story
  • Itadaki Street 2
  • Kabuki Story of Heaven's Magical Barrier
  • Kirby's Super Deluxe (Kirby Super Star)
  • Lennus II
  • Night of the Kamaitachi
  • Populous (SNES)
  • SimCity (SNES)
  • Sound Novel Otogirisou
  • War Emperor of Ki
  • Wild Trax (Stunt Race FX)
I've never heard of half of these titles (at least not under these names), so I'm not sure about spelling or accuracy. I already tried looking around GMR and Chudah's Corner a bit, but couldn't come up with anything.

If you can help out, just leave a comment, or email me or something.

The first AO was composed by Naoki Kodaka, and I believe the second one was. I am 99.9% sure. Only the Saturn version of the original came out here, and it was super bland.

Lennus was Paladin's Quest! Ha badgame. Anyway, music for both is Kohei Tanaka. Good music, weak game. :[ well the first anyway

I believe Night of the Kamaitachi was some kind of text game. That's all I know about it.

I think Kirby Super Star is Jun Ishikawa, but again, not 100% sure. The Revenge of the MetaKnight ending theme is super awesome 4evr though.

All this talk of music makes me want MIDI of Kill Bill trailer theme for my cellphone. :[

WOOOOOOOO. That takes care of a few. :]

Also, a Killer Japanese Seizure Robots ringtone would be a suitable alternative to the Kill Bill song.

Kirby Super Star's music is by Jun Ishikawa and Dan Miyakawa.

Itadaki Street 2: Kyohei Tsutsumi and Takane Okubo. The game also contains an arrangement of the Alefgard theme from the "Dragon Quest" series, originally composed by the venerable Koichi Sugiyama.

Populous: Kazuo Sawa.

SimCity: Soyo Oka.

Bounty Sword: Kohei Tanaka, same as the Lennus games. Which ROCK, by the way, no matter what anyone says.

Mind you, Kazuo Sawa composed the music for the SNES version of Populous. I know the game exists for many other systems, so other versions of Populous might be different.
