Legend of Wukong's composer an award winner?
« on: April 01, 2011, 09:00:04 AM »
The music in The Earth Defend and Legend of Wukong was done by a fellow named Ya-min Hsu-- or, as the latter's Chinese credits render it, 許雅民.

So I decided, as usual, to search for those Chinese characters.

What I found was... rather unexpected.

I guess this biographical sketch (Google translation) is of the same guy? Same exact characters, and... well, he's definitely a composer.

I'm curious what the chances are that two Taiwanese musicians would share the exact same name. Oddly, the only hit I can find mentioning both this guy's name and 悟空外傳 (Legend of Wukong) is taizou's GM-95 page!

Wow. yeah, i wonder if it's the same guy - that bio doesn't mention any game work, but maybe he doesn't consider it a high point of his career and would rather keep quiet about it :D
I always liked the music in Wukong though.
