Podcasts about masaya matsuura

My guest today is Masaya Matsuura, a Japanese musician and game designer widely considered to be the inventor of rhythm action video games. Born in Osaka City, music ran in the family; his father often performed with his guitar in clubs around Shinagawa Station in Tokyo. My guest was an unruly student until he discovered a love of keyboards and synthesisers, and found his people. in 1983 he formed Psy*s (pronounced ‘Saiz'), a progressive pop band fronted by the signer Mami Yasunori, which soon signed to Sony Music.Ten studio albums followed, and in 1994 my guest secured a budget to create a Simon Says-style rhythm game featuring an anthropomorphic, rapping dog. PaRappa the Rapper become an international smash his and led to a series of follow-ups: the guitar-based UmJammaLammy, the experimental wireframe project Vib-Ribbon, and Mojibribbon, a music game that played with calligraphic art.In recent years my guest has retreated from the video game business, focusing again on his music, and live events where he plays rare vinyl records, including tracks from the video games he has made, to an audience.Links:Cobalt Green, 1984, Masaya Matsuura E.P. -- Listen on Soundcloud.Pingu Rap/ ピングー ラップ vinyl re-release by Tower Records.

Viele Spiele, vor allem im Mainstream, drehen sich immer um die gleichen Dinge und arbeiten mit ähnlichen Versatzstücken – der Shooter, in dem man ein Geschütz des Feindes bemannt; der Held, der an Amnesie leidet; das Rollenspiel, bei dem man eingesperrt wird, seine komplette Ausrüstung aber beim Ausbruch wieder findet und so weiter. Aber ein Spiel, in dem ihr in einem Rap-Duell die Führerscheinprüfung bestehen müsst, damit der jugendliche Held seine Freundin in Papas Auto auf einen Ausflug mitnehmen kann, das ist einzigartig. Parappa the Rapper erschien 1996 für die Playstation und ist in vielerlei Hinsicht ein Spiel wie kein anderes. Fabian und Gunnar sprechen über die Entstehung des Spiels, die Mechanik, den Nachfolger mit dem strangen Namen Um Lammer Jammy und die Frage, ob dieses Spiel den Boom der Musikspiele losgetreten hat. Infos zum Spiel: Thema: Parappa the Rapper, 1996 Plattform: Playstation, später Ports auf PSP, PS4, Entwickler: NanaOn-Sha, Japan Studio Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment Genre: Ryhthmusspiel Designer: Masaya Matsuura, Rodney Greenblat Musik: Yoshihisa Suzuki, Dred Foxx (Gesang) www.stayforever.de

Show notes and gallery: http://videogamegrooves.com/2020/08/26/episode-68-vib-ribbon-anno-1800/ In the eternal dance of sound and culture, one podcast's card is always full: someone who is a lot less niche-driven than us. But here we are, showing up to hang out in the corner like the weird wallflowers we are, discussing games, game music, vinyl records, game music on vinyl records etc etc. This episode focuses on a little sound and a little culture! We begin with Anthony's selection of Vib Ribbon, by Minimum Records. The Vib soundtrack, co-conceived by Masaya Matsuura and a JPop band called Laugh and Peace, represents a level and style of quirk that we just don't see in many places, and the new pressing does it great justice. We discuss the automotive history of the game, as well as developer NanaOn-Sha's other works, more well-known and less. We're careful to listen to this one at the requisite 45 RPM, because otherwise things could get a bit... dank.  We then proceed to Jeremy's pick of Anno 1800, from Black Screen records and Ubisoft Loud. Jeremy makes the case for the game's mix of film score and era music, why it was one of his favored releases last year, and how it ties to his weirdly-musically-nerdy childhood. We also explore the secret and unsettling "rule of 9." We carry on, as we do, to share with you the newest releases and cool projects to look out for. A number of crowdfunding projects are ending soon, so check the links below! In our final segment we discuss the legitimacy and distinction of music created at dedicated music-crafting studios such as Dynamedion, Basiscape, and Vibe Avenue, compared to music created by individual composers or co-composers. Is there a difference? Should there be? Come listen and find out!
