Toshiya Yamanaka was a composer for Arsys Software and Treasure, known among FM music afficionados for his work on Star Cruiser, Knight Arms, and other Japanese PC games. This lengthy interview offers a good overview of his work while also exploring his musical influences, approach to composition, and his hardware setup. Whenever possible I’ve linked to music samples of his work, but unfortunately, some of his more obscure stuff isn’t available online.
