This lengthy interview with famous Nintendo composer Koji Kondo was originally featured in the jp book series game maestro. It looks back on Kondo’s musical history both personal and professional, going from his early days learning the Electone to his (then) most recent project, Majora’s Mask. The interview is littered with musical anecdotes from the Zelda and Mario series, and it also provides a unique view into Kondo’s personal philosophy and approach to “game music.”
