Akari Kaida: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Breath of Fire III (Video Game)|Breath of Fire III]]'': (1997, along with [[Yoshino Aoki]]): Akari Kaida composed the majority of this game's music, and also sang the ending song with Yoshino Aoki -- this soundtrack is one of Kaida's most memorable works. When ''BoF3'' was released, its music was a somewhat [[Love It or Hate It|controversial point]] -- some people lauded the creative use of jazz+funk music in the fantasy setting, while others thought jazz [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks|had no place]] in any fantasy RPG. Kaida did not return to compose ''[[Breath of Fire IV (Video Game)|Breath of Fire IV]]'', which was composed entirely by Aoki (though with an arrangement of a song or two Kaida had composed for ''BoF3''). As years have passed, the music of ''BoF3'' has aged fairly well.
