Arcubalis Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 One of his least know projects lately, Hitoshi Sakimoto opens up about the quirky Wii RPG Opoona. For anyone who has played the game, they know the music is fantastic. It's a shame there hasn't been a soundtrack release yet, but perhaps if it sells well here they'll go for it! Sakimoto provides some pretty thorough answers, and I was really happy with how it came out. What do you guys think? http://www.music4games.net/Features_Display.aspx?id=219 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ifirit Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Really great article, but there were no samples in this one. At least the official website had some samples, though, I'm not too impressed. Isn't the battle theme just an arranged version of Sabre Dance? Sabre Dance Anyway, I didn't realize that his company created music for Odin Sphere, FFTA2 and Grim Grimoire. Gotta check out those games sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcubalis Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 Yeah, sorry about the samples. No soundtrack release for Opoona, so the music isn't readily available. I highly recommend getting ahold of a fan recording though, as the music is awesome! The battle theme is some of the least impressive stuff in the game!

zircon Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 The music throughout the video was really great, in my opinion. The battle theme does quote "Sabre Dance" a bit but it's definitely not a real arrangement, it takes far too many liberties. It's more like an original piece that borrows a bit from "Sabre Dance".

Z3120 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Anyway, I didn't realize that his company created music for Odin Sphere, FFTA2 and Grim Grimoire. Gotta check out those games sometime. He also did an anime called Romeo X Juliet if you're interested. I love this piece especially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
