Man this is an old post - but yeah!

He's got a really unique sound to his music. He really likes to experiment with chorale arrange,,ents, and it's something I really like hearing - Millenium Actress and Berserk are very similar scores - but also very different.

My facorite score of his was the work he did for the SWROD OF THE BERSERK Dreamcast Game - he Released an 11 track album of some of the tracks - and online a few years ago you could get the full rip of the missing game tracks that really have a lot of impressive stuff.

If you have Millenium Actress, I'd be up for a trade if you'r einterested in the dreamcast tunes.

His music is OK. Although Berserk doesn't have a large variety of music that I can particularly remember, what little of it there is sounds excellent and very fitting for the series. However, Berserk is the only thing I've heard from him... Sad.

I still think Millenium Actress is his best work, but the new song from the new Berserk video game is awesome. Definitally captures the mood of the series well. Alot of his new album is pretty melodic, with much less industrial influence. Its still electronica, but some of the songs have a mystic quality to them. Good stuff, but the Berserk video game theme proves he can still make heavy music.
And his work on the first Berserk game is great as well. Too bad he's only doing two songs for the new one.
