	Yasunori Mitsuda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mitsuda was born in Tokuyama, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, and raised in Kumage.
		Mitsuda was allowed to compose the majority of the tracks for the game under the watchful eye of veteran composer Nobuo Uematsu, in the end arranging fifty-four tracks (Uematsu composing the remaining ten, having Noriko Matsueda assist him with one).
		Mitsuda's style is difficult to pigeonhole, however, since he is able to compose music in several different styles depending on the demands of the project.

	Currents - Close-Up: Yasunori Mitsuda
		Yasunori Mitsuda was a big part of this revolution, and he continues to contribute to the music world the best way he knows how--through video games.
		Yasunori Mitsuda was born on January 21, 1972, in the Japanese city of Tokuyama, which is within the Yamaguchi prefecture.
		Mitsuda, himself even admits to this when he says, "I don't know if you could really call that practicing." Most of the young boy's practicing sessions consisted of him playing around on the piano, not following any sort of routine, whenever he visited his piano instructor's home.

	Chrono Cross Original Soundtrack : SoundtrackCentral.com
		However, Yasunori Mitsuda achieves it this time in a way that is rather unexpected, especially to those who love his particular brand of music.
		Mitsuda definitely has improved upon his skills as a composer; the music no longer goes to extremes in order to convey a mood as it did in his previous works.
		Yasunori Mitsuda has done what I had never thought possible: he has taken the highly melodic Chrono Trigger themes, force-fused them with the darkly foreboding Xenogears rhythms, and created a masterpiece beyond any scope.

	Currents - Close-Up: Yasunori Mitsuda
		Though Mitsuda was hired as a composer, he was never given the opportunity to write any music for any of the projects that he worked on.
		Mitsuda said that the Chrono Trigger project was one that caused him enormous, overwhelming pressure and hardship, but one that would give him an experience that helped to shape him into the man he is today.
		Mitsuda's most important and influential work came at a time when composers were beginning to redefine video game music and its role in the music industry.

		Yasunori Mitsuda was born on January 21, 1972, in the city of Tokuyama, Japan, but spent most of his childhood in Kumake.
		Mitsuda's first job came when he was asked to work with game music legend Koichi Sugiyama on Hanjuku Hero, Sugiyama's only contribution to Square.
		Despite these three post-Chrono Trigger works featuring large contributions from Yasunori Mitsuda, it was only his next work — the solo composition of the score for Xenogears in 1998 —; that gave him the same level of attention and acclaim as Chrono Trigger did.

	Xenogears Original Soundtrack
		Composed by Yasunori Mitsuda, the score is a masterpiece (my third favorite videogame soundtrack).
		Those not familiar with Yasunori's work should know that he composed the soundtrack for the earlier Super Nintendo game, "Crono Trigger," a score that has often been praised by fans in the past, but has never done much to excite me personally.
		Mitsuda finishes the soundtrack with a pop ballad for the closing credits.

		If you're a Yasunori Mitsuda fan, you have to listen to this soundtrack.
		An Cinniñ©®´ is a soundtrack inspired by Mitsuda's other albums such as chrono cross, xenogears and shadow hearts so the music is in a way quite similiar.
		Mitsuda has brilliantly derived them from the similiar music and "remixed" it into these music.

	Anime Academy Lounge - Uematsu VS Mitsuda
		For those of you who don't spend most of their waking hours, as I do, listening to VG music, Nobuo Uematsu composed most of the music for the popular Final Fantasy Series.

		I also feel that Yasunori Mitsuda did a fabulous job, in his own right, for what he was given to work with.
		Mitsuda's is generally orchestral, though if we look at Chrono Trigger and for example the track Schala's Theme, the style is very different--which I personally love.

	Amazon.com: Xenogears: Original Soundtrack: Music: Yasunori Mitsuda (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Yasunori Mitsuda is an orchestral genius, as he proves time and again, putting examples in all of his works, and namely his work here and in its sequel's soundtrack, Xenosaga.
		Yasunori Mitsuda is most famous for composing the music to the classic SNES RPG "Chrono Trigger" and its wonderful PSX sequel "Chrono Cross", but out of all his works, the soundtrack to the underground PSX classic "Xenogears" is probably his greatest accomplishment.
		It would be somewhat silly to call it Mitsuda's musical pinnacle, considering he later composed the soundtracks to "Chrono Cross" and "Xenosaga".

	Chrono Cross
		To make up for the dullness of the battle tracks, Mitsuda has created several wonderful town themes which are the true life source of this particular score.
		The power of the synth is made truly visible here as the guitar sounds incredibly real (it even has sound effects of fingers sliding on frets).

		Following today's surprise announcement that Yasunori Mitsuda will not be in charge of composing the soundtrack for Monolith Soft's Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Boese (Beyond Good and Evil), the composer confirmed that he will be working on another PlayStation 2 RPG, Nautilus' Shadow Hearts II.
		While his friend Yoshitaka Hirota will be the game's main composer, Mitsuda himself will also compose some tracks for the sequel to the 2001 sleeper hit Shadow Hearts.
		Since he had previously scored both Xenogears and Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille Zur Macht, Mitsuda was generally regarded as the logical choice of composer for Xenosaga Episode II as well.

	Gaming FM Forums - Yasunori Mitsuda vs. Nobuo Uematsu
		Mitsuda is a great composer and Xenogears is maybe one of the best RPG soundtracks of all time but Uematsu has given me more memorable music, and when taking into account that Uematsu has impressed me with greater regularity that's my choice.
		Then again Mitsuda has never made anything as bad as those boring, generic songs that Uematsu critics love to point out.
		I think the most noteable soundtracks from Mitsuda are his Trigger (Which Uemetsu helped him with, so of course they were awesome), and Cross soundtracks, and his Xenogears Soundtrack.
