DoS Soundtrack Credits

I'm told that the soundtrack for Dawn of Sorrow was composed by Michiru Yamane and Masahiko Kimura, but for the organisation of my media library it's inconvenient to have "Michiru Yamane, Masahiko Kimura" classed as a seperate artist to the two composers seperately, so does anyone know which tracks were composed by which person? It'd help a lot. Thanks.

Yamane composed the following tracks:

A Fleeting Respite
Scarlet Battle Soul
Demon Guest House
Condemned Tower
Cursed Clock Tower
Subterranean Hell
The Pinnacle
Portal to Dark Bravery
The Abyss
Piercing Battle Fury
Game Over
After Battle ~Blue Memories~
Finale ~Momentary Moonlight~
Amber Scenery



The rest were composed by Kimura.

Yamane composed portal to Dark Bravery? Must've been having a bad day, so she took her anger out on whatever she uses to compose...

You can actually hear the difference between Yamane's and Kimura's style. =p

I guess "Demon Guest House" must have been her creative block-point in the writing process. - Dull and, somehow, struggling to find a working melody as it progresses. At least it kind of fit the ecclectic stage it was made for. And "The Pinnacle" makes perfect sense seeing as how I keep thinking of the main theme from Curse of Darkness when I hear it. Wouldn't surprise me then if she turned out to have composed "Gaze Up at the Darkness" in Portrait.

Incidentally, that's pretty cool that she also brought us "Subterranean Hell." Sounds like she was in one of her experimental moods with that piece. It's a song that definitely grew on me the more I heard it, similar to some of the stage specific themes from Curse. At any rate, here's hoping the next DS game has a more seemless collaboration, if not one single composer to handle the score. And may the end result be memorable.

She did.

As far as I remember koshiro only did 5 pieces, the entrance, clocktower, the weaker version of generic boss battle (behemoth etc), sisters battle and dracula.

Uhh-huhhh...

Makes you wonder why Konami keeps wanting guest composers if they still entrust the majority of the work to Yamane-san. At any rate, I look forward to the day Soushiro Hokkai (composed of HoD's score I believe) gets another chance to do a proper CV soundtrack again with better sound quality.

So he's the "genius" who brought us that miserable boss theme? Oh well, at least everything else he contributed was awesome.

Hokkai didn't screw up that bad, I mean at least we got Successor of Fate and the Chapel of Resonance.
