A portion of a Nintendo Power interview with composer Akira Yamaoka…
NP: You’re best known for Silent Hill, but are there other games you’ve worked on in which you think your compositions were especially good?
AY: “I don’t consider video game music, including Silent Hill music, as “music”. I consider it more as “sound” that complements the images, game, and story to create an entertaining experience. So even if I thought I created cool music, if I don’t get excited or enjoy playing the game with the music and images combined, then I can’t say, “I created good music.”"
