SNK Sound Team - 1995 Composer Interview + OoT
Added 2022-06-29 00:39:08 +0000 UTChttps://shmuplations.com/shinsekai/
This short interview with the in-house SNK sound team known as Shinsekai Gakkyoku Zatsugidan (New World Music and Performance Group) originally appeared in Neo Geo Freak magazine. The conversation never goes too deep, but offers brief comments on Garou Densetsu, King of Fighters, and Samurai Spirits. I've also attached the more colorful liner notes from the Samurai Spirits 1993 OST at the bottom.
That wraps things up for June! This SNK composer interview is a little shorter owing to the extended length of the FFIV and Ace Attorney interviews. It probably won't fully satisfy patrons who have requested SNK material, so consider it a teaser, and we'll be revisiting SNK soon. I also took this moment to add a very small 1999 interview with Koji Kondo about Ocarina of Time, which I've appended here: https://shmuplations.com/ocarinaoftime/
Thank you for your continued support, and we'll have the July/August/September voting thread up next week!
Comments
Koji Kondo commentary is interesting, especially the part where he explained about Link standing still for so long that the themes changes to keep the players from getting bored.
