Anyone else tired of Yoko Shimomura?

Posted

Im listening to the 3D OST, havent played the game yet, but ive noticed all of Yokos shit, sounds EXACTLY THE SAME, or it has a sample of a song shes done before. Like, that gets old, man.

 

Majestic Wings, Ice-Hot lobster are two of my faves. Ive noticed theyre composed by Tsuyoshi Sekito, and that guy is crazy with it. I love how theyre unique and full of energy, im tired of hearing Dearly Beloved tidbits in Yokos stuff, it gets boring.

 

I think we need a new composer, anyone else?

    I agree, Hans Zimmer is still amazing even if some stuff sounds similar in theme. Its their signature style, like Yoko. Its what makes good musicians recognisable, like how you can listen to something and be like "this is John Williams isnt it?" She is fantastic and I doubt I would ever get tired of listening to her stuff. And Daft Punk would be an awesome addition to any video game/movie! Too bad they couldnt have gotten some original stuff from them for The Grid in DDD.

     

    Exactly! That would have been a great addition to the Grid. But I feel like Shimomura really captured it well without copying it the same way she did for pirates of the caribbean back in KH2

    Thanks for the feedback and opinions, i like that we can come and talk about this without arguing. I do like Yoko, but I just want something different, when i heard "Xigbar", its just an old piece sped up to me, i just want something different, I cant tell you how many times ive heard a previous theme in a new piece, not saying Yoko isnt good, she made "Somnus" for Christs sake lol, thats a beautiful piece. I hope she brings a bang for KH3,id stil like to see new composers though.

    yeah and I'm not saying other composers aren't welcome either. New stuff is always cool!
