Ask Norihiko Hibino Your Questions on OSV

[Arcubalis]

OSV has just rolled out an exciting new feature called "Ask Hibino," which invites readers to submit any question they may have regarding himself or the game music biz in Japan to Norihiko Hibino (Metal Gear Solid, Zone of the Enders, 1942: Joint Strike). Each month, one question will be selected and answered by Hibino on OSV.

This is unparalleled access to such a high-profile game music composer, so be sure to thank Hibino-san for his time!

Hmmm... Interesting.

Even more interesting. His first month's responses hint at a possible Actraiser arrange album. I asked him for clarification (he said in the response that it would be similar in style to the Live Piano and Strings Etrian Odyssey arrange), and he said he was thinking more along the lines of a bossa nova/relaxing album.
