Which songs on the OST were composed by Yoko Shimomura and which weren't?

Posted

While I did like KH3s soundtrack I didn't like it nearly as much as the OSTs of the previous games- for every good ost there was one that sounded off or jilted and this is ESPECIALLY true for the boss music. Most boss songs minus Demon Tide theme sounded off or weird to me and the final boss music felt like a bad Soundcloud medley. At first I thought Yoko just didn't do a stellar job on this OST but I realised that the songs sound put together too different to her usual style, so was another composer responsible?

 

The tracks I know were by Yoko was the Corona music, most of the field music and the Scala Ad Caelum theme that plays for a short time (all of which are 10/10), did a different composer do most of the boss fight tracks?

 

Ps disliking some of the ost is just my personal opinion

Oh my god, I thought no one would bring this up. But yes, Yoko only made about two new OG songs for KH3: “Scalia Ad Caelum” and “The Final World” themes, not counting the Disney worlds. There were two other composers who were on the team (Takeharu Ishimoto and Tsuyoshi Sekito) and they had previously worked on Kingdom Hearts games as well as Dissidia Final Fantasy NT. The boss battle music was one of the most irritating parts of the game. It sounded WAY too synthetic and the overall composition was predictable and boring. Not to say either of them are bad composers, but Yoko has been the sound of Kingdom Hearts for 17 years, and neither of them really compare to her grandiose, melodic style.
