FM Sound Module Maniax!
I posted about this over at SoundtrackCentral.com, but I just HAVE to mention it here, too.
It's been awhile since I had visited the Sakuraba page over at CocoeBiz, but I'm glad I finally did...otherwise, I'd have missed THIS interesting bit of cool news! A host of VGM composers have been making up tracks for ringtones for MelodyClip, and they must conform to the FM limits that most phones have. Well, folks...they did BEAUTIFULLY.  Here's the list of the composers...some of which you might recognize.  http://www.famitsu.net/mobile/melomelo/sp/creator.html And here's the samples. Tasty, tasty!  http://www.famitsu.net/mobile/melomelo/sp/listen.html And here's where it gets interesting... According to CocoeBiz, if there's enough interest, Enterbrain will release a CD of these tracks. Well, it must have happened...because HERE IS THE PREORDER!!!  http://www.vgmworld.com/catalog/inde...c&item_num=941 If you have a taste for the good-ol FM-music days, then I think those samples are gonna tantalize you. And then you're REALLY gonna want this. New music in a nostalgic sound palette...gotta love that! Jam it back in, in the dark. |

As a fan of such a style of music, I will say: Whoa, this is pretty awesome. Good to see that a lot of influential VGM composers haven't forgotten their roots, heh..
I don't own a cell phone myself, but heck, I wouldn't mind having one with one of these ringtones... Even if it's only to hear Shinji Hosoe's Liquid Soup play when I get a call. ;p On that note, Michiko Naruke's L.S. sample is also great. Those two would be my favorites, but I think that all the samples were pretty neat. The CD of the tunes should be some nice listening. I look forward to it. There's nowhere I can't reach.

Great samples. I didn't find a single one out of the bunch that I hated; after all, the synths were just so welcoming and catchy, with a nice selection of VGM composers.
Looks like I simply have to preorder this now (mobile strap ftw?). This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Japanese phones sure sound good; I expected that the sound would be worse than that. I'm not disappointed though, and the old-school flavor is more than welcome.
I especially like Kenji Ito's "Lazy Night" sample. I usually don't find his music special, but when he goes electronic, that's another story! I was speaking idiomatically. |
